Hold the Handlebar with both hands, and as you step up, look straight ahead and not down.
Put one foot on the Footboard Mat.
Slowly transfer your weight to the foot on the Footboard Mat.
Once you hear a Voice Prompt from the Q-BOT, raise your back foot off the ground and slowly place it on the
Footboard Mat while avoiding moving the Handlebar. Stay calm and relaxed. Look forward. Some people rock back
and forth involuntarily when they first step on. The helper should hold the Handlebar firmly.
If you feel unstable, step off the Q-BOT one foot at a time, and pause before stepping back on. The helper should
continue holding firmly the entire time, and be prepared to keep the Q-BOT from moving as you step on or off.
If you are standing on the Q-BOT now, please keep the Footboard Mat horizontal and stand still. Do not move before you are
familiar with it.
