DOORS
Determine whether the door opens toward or away from you.
Use your hand to turn the knob or to push the handle or push-bar.
If the door opens away from you, drive your AFISCOOTER S gently and slowly
forward to push the door open.
If the door opens towards you, drive your AFISCOOTER S gently and slowly
backwards to pull the door open.

ELEVATORS
Modern elevators have a safety mechanism on the edge of the door that, when pushed,
reopens the door(s).
If you are in the doorway of an elevator when the door(s) begin to close, push on the
rubber door edge or allow the rubber door edge to contact the AFISCOOTER S; and
the door will reopen.
Take care that handbags, packages, or AFISCOOTER S accessories do not become
caught in elevator doors.
NOTE: Sometimes manoeuvring your AFISCOOTER S may be difficult in elevators and
building entrances. Use caution when attempting to manoeuvre your AFISCOOTER S in
small spaces, and avoid areas that might pose a problem.
LIFTS/ELEVATION PRODUCTS
If you travel with your AFISCOOTER S, you may find it necessary to use a lift or elevation
product to aid in transportation. We recommend that you closely review the manufacturer’s
instructions, specifications, and safety information before using the lift/elevation product.
WARNING! Never sit on your AFISCOOTER S when it is being used with any type of
lift/elevation product. Your AFISCOOTER S was not designed for such use, and any
damage or injury resulting from such use is your responsibility only.
BATTERIES (see also Replacing Batteries, page 28)
In addition to the following warnings below, be sure to comply with all other
battery handling information.
MANDATORY! Battery posts, terminals, and related accessories contain lead
and lead compounds. Wear goggles and gloves when handling batteries, and
wash hands after handling.
WARNING! Scooter batteries are heavy. (See Appendix A – Specification Sheet). If you
are unable to lift that much weight, be sure to get help. Use proper lifting techniques and
avoid lifting beyond your capacity.
WARNING! Always protect the batteries from freezing and never charge a frozen battery.
WARNING! Connect the battery cables correctly. RED (+) cables must be connected to
positive (+) battery terminals/posts and BLACK (-) cables must be connected to negative ( )
battery terminals/posts. REPLACE damaged cables immediately. Protective caps must be
installed over all battery terminals.
NOTE: If the battery is damaged or cracked, immediately enclose it in a plastic bag and
contact your local waste disposal agency or authorized AFISCOOTER S dealer for
instructions for disposal or for recycling (which we recommend).
MOTOR VEHICLE TRANSPORTATION
The manufacturer recommends that you do not remain seated in your AFISCOOTER S
while travelling in a motor vehicle. The AFISCOOTER S should be stowed in the boot of a
car or in the back of a truck or van with the batteries removed and properly secured. In
addition, all removable AFISCOOTER S parts, including the armrests, seat, and shroud,
should be removed and/or properly secured during transportation.
WARNING! Although your AFISCOOTER S may be equipped with an optional tie-down
belt, this belt is not designed to provide restraint during motor vehicle transportation.
