OPERATION

Turning the Vehicle

1. Before turning, activate a

turn signal to alert others of

your intentions. Activate the

left signal before a left turn.

Activate the right signal

before a right turn.

2. Steer in the direction of the

turn, leaning your upper

body to the inside of the

turn while supporting your

weight on the outer footrest.

Use the same leaning tech-

nique for turning in reverse.

3. Practice making turns at

slow speeds before attempt-

ing to turn at faster speeds.

Always follow the procedures outlined in this

manual for turning. Never turn sharply at

excessive speeds, which can lead to vehicle

overturn.
