design and accessories
Can Scoozy be ergonomically adjusted?
Before assembling Scoozy, you make a number of personal choices: the height of the seat, the side of the joystick steering and the placement of the joystick. Only the seat height can be adjusted later.
Why does Scoozy have a joystick instead of a handlebar?
Scoozy is controlled with a joystick for maximum open vision. This way you can see your position on the road and you can fully enjoy your surroundings. The joystick also has the advantage that it can be operated intuitively and with one hand. Both arms can remain on the armrests while driving.
Is it possible to control Scoozy differently than with the joystick, for example with a foot pedal?
Scoozy can only be controlled with the joystick, this is possible on both the left and right.
Which battery is in Scoozy? And can I purchase an extra battery?
Scoozy has a lithium-ion battery. This battery lasts much longer than the older battery types and therefore needs to be replaced less often. It is possible to replace a battery or have an extra battery installed for a larger range. You cannot do this yourself.
Is there a Scoozy canopy or can a windshield be placed on it?
This is currently not available. We are developing a canopy. For warmer and drier driving with Scoozy we recommend a leg cover from Kinetic Balance.

How do I brake with Scoozy?
Scoozy brakes in 5 different ways:
1. Scoozy rolls out slowly by returning the joystick to the center / zero position.
2. By pulling the Joystick backwards while driving forward (in speed mode) you actively brake and stop more quickly.
3.
3 + 4. There are 2 ways to make an emergency stop by pressing the red button on the control panel or the front button on the joystick.
5. The motors stop immediately by pressing the on / off switch, but this is strongly unadvised and should only be used as a final option.

2. Plug the charger into the wall socket

What do the lights on the charger mean?

2. (> 80%), this LED has no function when loading Scoozy.
3. (100%), this green LED indicates that the charging process has stopped.
4. (warning). This red LED will light if the charger is not connected in the correct order. See FAQ How can I charge Scoozy for the correct order.
(The lights on the charger do not always give an accurately indication. The Scoozy display information is more reliable.)
What does balancing on the display mean?
When the battery is full, it switches to balancing. The battery consists of 196 small cells. These cells must all be equally full for your battery to work safely. The battery is loading the cells equal to each other when there is "Balancing" on the screen.
What does crit high on the display mean?
A full battery in Scoozy is actually only 90% full. Scoozy brakes by regenerate energy from the engines. This is only possible if that energy can go somewhere, preferably to the battery. When the Battery is> 95% full, Scoozy will display "Crit High" on the screen. This is harmless, but your Scoozy indicates that it is no longer able to brake properly and therefore cannot drive. Sometimes we see the notification when Scoozy has been on the charger for a long time. The message will disappear automatically if energy has been used. It will go faster if the Scoozy lights are turned on to consume energy.
What does battery empty mean on the display?
When Battery Empty is shown on the Scoozy display, Scoozy should be charged quickly.
What does charger off on the display mean?
With this message on the screen, the charger is connected, but not started charging. Reconnect the charger in the correct order as indicated in FAQ How can I charge Scoozy?. Make sure the charger is completely off, so none of the lights are on when you plug it in.
Why does Scoozy lose 1-2 km range a day when I haven't driven it?
Scoozy is not turned off, but in standby mode. This costs energy. Scoozy can stand still for up to 25 days before needing to be recharged. Scoozy switches itself off completely when the battery is 10% loaded. Scoozy can then be switched on again by pressing the freewheel button. Are you putting Scoozy away for a long time? Then it is wise to disconnect the Battery from the computer via the fuse cover.
How can I safely store Scoozy for a long time?
Disconnect the battery from the computer through the fuse cover. This way, Scoozy can be stored for at least 6 months. Make sure the battery is fully charged before storing.
