3. On the tiller, use the throttle lever as described earlier. You will gently accelerate.
Release and you will gently stop. Practice these two basic functions until you get
used to them.
4. Steering the scooter is easy and logical. Be sure to remember to allow enough

Should the scooter be left ON, but not operated for 15 minutes the scooter will go
