2. Check the freewheel lever is fully engaged (see page

12 ). If it is engaged you should not be able to push
your machine. If disengaged, 9 bars will flash on your
battery condition mater with the speed lever pressed.

1. Turn off the power 'on' key switch.
2. Inform your authorised

dealer.

If your Freerider does not slow down or behaves erratically:

If you find for any reason your Scooter

does not reduce speed when you let go of the forward-
reverse speed lever . Switch your Scooter 'off' with the
on/off key. The parking brake will activate immediately and
stop your Scooter. Beware the scooter will stop very
suddenly, brace yourself with the handlebars, sit back in
your seat.

This operation should only be carried out in an

emergency; continual use of this facility will damage the drive
transmission and motor brake.

The speed controller system incorporates a sophisticated
micro-processor design (Fig 42). It is located under the rear

IMPORTANT SPEED CONTROLLER
INFORMATION

Body cover of your Scooter ( see fig 41). The in-built
micro-controller continually monitors the
Scooter's systems to ensure safe and reliable operation.

Freewheel speed limiting downhill.
Battery voltage

When the battery voltage is low, the 'battery gauge status'
indicator bar light, situated on the control console ( fig 11,
page 9 ) will flash one red bar slowly as a warning to recharge
your batteries. If the 'speed controller' detects a fault the
battery gauge/status indicator will display a number of bar
flashes indicating the nature of the fault.

For example, the controller will not operate if the speed lever
is not in the neutral position ( fig 12, page 11) when the
Scooter is switched 'on'. Return the speed lever to the neutral
position, when the Scooter will be allowed to operate normally
once again. This safety detection is indicated by a steady
rippling display on the battery gauge ( see also Fault Diagnosis
below ).

If your Scooter is turned 'on' but not operated for a set period
of time ( 15 minutes approx )the speed controller system will
automatically turn itself 'off' to conserve valuable battery
energy, you will note the battery gauge is switched off. It can
be turned on again by turning the on/off switch to 'off' and
then to 'on' again.

A reversing buzzer is provided for when you are driving in a
reverse direction. This is an important safety feature to make
other people aware of your change of direction.
