Safety instructions
The first rule in safe riding is to use common sense. A eKick 10 Pro is vulnerable;
it cannot protect you in a crash, against impact, or lose of control the way
driving a car can. An bike can tip over sideways or pitch you over the front
wheel. It moves faster than a typical bicycle. It does not have bumpers or
airbags as a car does. This section is a guide of safe riding practices for on and o
-road operation. Make sure you are using your eKick 10 Pro properly.
Different localities and countries have different laws governing riding on public
roads, and you should check with local organization to ensure you are
complying with these laws.
Hype is not liable for tickets or violations given to riders or who do not follow
these regulations.
•For your safety, always wear a helmet that meets CPSC or CE safety standards.
In the event of an accident, a helmet can protect you from serious injury and in
some cases, even death.
•Obey all local legal. Obey red and green lights, one-way streets, stop signs,
pedestrian crosswalks, etc.
•Ride with the traffic, not against it.
•If riding with friends, ride in a single and straight line.
•Have a satisfactory signaling device (bell, horn, etc.) to warn drivers and
pedestrians of your approach.
•Ride defensively; expect the unexpected.
