INCLEMENT WEATHER PRECAUTIONS
Exposure of your Breeze S Scooter to inclement weather conditions should be
avoided whenever possible.
If suddenly caught up in rain, snow, severe cold or heat while operating your Breeze
S Scooter, proceed to shelter at the earliest opportunity. Thoroughly dry your Breeze
S Scooter before storing, charging, or operating your Breeze S Scooter.
PROHIBITED! Operating in rain, snow, salt, mist/spray conditions, and on icy
slippery
surfaces can have an adverse affect on the electrical system. Maintain and store your
Breeze S Scooter in a dry and clean condition.
WARNING! Prolonged exposure to hot or cold conditions may affect the temperature
of upholstered and non-upholstered items on the Breeze S Scooter, possibly
resulting in skin irritation. Exercise caution when using your Breeze S Scooter in
extremely hot or cold conditions or when exposing your Breeze S Scooter to direct
sunlight for prolonged periods of time.
FREEWHEEL MODE
Your Breeze S Scooter is equipped with a manual freewheel lever
that, when pushed Upward, allows the Breeze S scooter to be
pushed. For more information about how to place your Breeze S
scooter into and out of freewheel mode, see 3. “General description
of your Breeze S scooter.”
WARNING! When your Breeze S scooter is in freewheel mode, the
braking system is disengaged.
ü Disengage the drive motors only on a level surface.
ü Ensure the key is removed from the key switch.
ü Stand beside the Breeze S Scooter to engage or disengage
freewheel mode. Never sit on a Breeze S Scooter to do this.
ü After you have finished pushing your Breeze S Scooter, always return it to the
drive mode to lock the brakes.
ü An added feature built into the Breeze S Scooter is “push-too-fast” protection
which safeguards the Breeze S scooter against gaining excessive speed while in
freewheel mode.
“Push-too-fast” operates differently depending on which of two conditions exists:
ü If the key is switched “off” while in freewheel mode, the Breeze S scooter’s
controller activates regenerative braking when the Breeze S scooter is pushed faster
than a maximum threshold which has been preprogrammed. In this case, the
controller is acting as a speed governor.
ü If the key is switched “on” while in freewheel mode, you will encounter considerable
resistance at any speed. This prevents the Breeze S scooter from gaining unwanted
momentum should the manual freewheel lever inadvertently be released while driving
the Breeze S scooter.
ü When using this lever be careful not to touch the internal surface of the motor, they
could be very hot and cause injure. See the warning label at the rear of the scooter
near the lever.
