Operating Instructions

The 360° flexible joystick allows for precise control. Gently push the joystick in the desired direction to move. Push forward to move forward, pull back to reverse, and move left or right to steer. Adjust speed using the speed up (+) and speed down (-) buttons. Press the horn button as needed.
3. Switching Between Electric and Manual Modes
