SAFETY PRECAUTIONS during operation and maintenance
Parents/adult supervisors read this page first
PARENTS/SUPERVISING ADULTS MUST TEACH CHILDREN HOW TO SAFELY RIDE THIS SCOOTER. If the rider fails to use
common sense and heed these warnings, there is an increased risk of damage, serious injury or possibly death.
Riding an Electric Scooter Presents Potential Risks.
• Like any riding product, an electric scooter can be hazardous (for example, falling off or riding into a hazardous situation).
Electric scooters are, of course, meant to move and it is therefore possible for a rider to lose control or otherwise get into
dangerous situations.
• Both children and adults responsible for supervising them must recognize that if such things occur, a rider can be seriously injured
or possibly die, even when using safety equipment and taking other safety precautions.
USE SCOOTERS AT YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.
Parental and Adult Responsibility and Supervision are Necessary
Because scooters can be hazardous -- and not every product is appropriate for every age or size of child -- different age
recommendations are found within this category of product which are intended to reflect the nature of the hazards and
the expected mental or physical ability, or both, of a child to cope with the hazards. Parents and supervising adults need to
select riding products appropriate for the age of the child who will ride the electric scooter and take care to prevent children
who may be too immature or inexperienced for a product’s characteristics to endanger themselves around it.
• The recommended rider age for the Razor E100 electric scooter is 8 years of age and older. Any rider, even 8 or older,
unable to fit comfortably on the scooter should not attempt to ride it. A parent’s decision to allow his or her child to ride
this product should be based on the child’s maturity, skill and ability to follow rules. Keep this product away from small
children and remember that it is intended for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely comfortable and
competent while operating the scooter.
• Maximum rider weight 54 kg
• Persons with any mental or physical conditions that may make them susceptible to injury, impair their physical dexterity
or mental capabilities to recognize, understand, and follow safety instructions and to be able to understand the hazards
inherent in scooter use, should not use or be permitted to use products inappropriate for their abilities. Persons with
heart conditions, head, back or neck ailments (or prior surgeries to these areas of the body), or pregnant women, should
be cautioned not to operate such products.
Check Scooter Before Use – Maintain After Use
• Before use, confirm that any and all chain guards or other covers or guards are in place and in serviceable condition, that the
brake is functioning properly and that tires(s) have sufficient tread remaining. Make sure that the rear wheel has no flat areas or
excessive wear.
• After use, maintain and repair scooter in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications in this manual. Use only the
manufacturer’s authorized replacement parts. Do not modify this scooter from the manufacturer’s original design and
configuration.
Acceptable Riding Practices and Conditions – Parents/adults should discuss these rules with their children
Protective equipment should be worn. Not to be used in traffic.
Where to Ride the Scooter
• Always check and obey any local laws or regulations which may affect the locations where the electric scooter may be used. Keep
safely away from autos and motor vehicle traffic at all times and only use where allowed and with caution.
• Ride defensively. Be careful to avoid pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children or animals who may enter your
path. Respect the rights and property of others.
• The electric scooter is intended for use on flat, dry surfaces such as pavement or level ground, without loose debris such as sand,
leaves, rocks or gravel.
• Wet, slick, bumpy, uneven or rough surfaces may lessen traction and increase the risk of accidents.
• Do not ride your scooter in mud, ice, puddles or water.
• Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control.
• Avoid sharp bumps, drainage grates, and sudden surface changes.
• Do not ride your scooter in wet or icy weather and never immerse the scooter in water, as the electrical and drive components
could be damaged by water or create other possibly unsafe conditions.
• Never risk damaging surfaces such as carpet or flooring by use of an electric scooter indoors.
• Never use near steps or swimming pools.
