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.

Turning improperly can result in vehicle overturn. Never turn abruptly or at sharp
angles. Never turn at high speeds.
