U3C6E1E0.book Page 1 Friday, August 8, 2008 10:09 AM SAFETY INFORMATION EAUT1012 Be a Responsible Owner As the vehicle’s owner, you are responsible for the safe and proper operation of your scooter. Scooters are single-track vehicles. Their safe use and operation are dependent upon the use of proper riding techniques as well as the expertise of the operator. Every operator should know the following requirements before riding this scooter.
U3C6E1E0.book Page 2 Friday, August 8, 2008 10:09 AM SAFETY INFORMATION ● 1 ● Many accidents have been caused by error of the scooter operator. A typical error made by the operator is veering wide on a turn due to excessive speed or undercornering (insufficient lean angle for the speed). • Always obey the speed limit and never travel faster than warranted by road and traffic conditions. • Always signal before turning or changing lanes. Make sure that other motorists can see you.
U3C6E1E0.book Page 3 Friday, August 8, 2008 10:09 AM SAFETY INFORMATION ● ● ● Do not run engine indoors. Even if you try to ventilate engine exhaust with fans or open windows and doors, carbon monoxide can rapidly reach dangerous levels. Do not run engine in poorly ventilated or partially enclosed areas such as barns, garages, or carports. Do not run engine outdoors where engine exhaust can be drawn into a building through openings such as windows and doors.
