WARNING:
Use ONLY with
the recommended charger. Batteries
are only to be charged under
adult supervision. The charger is
not a toy. Always disconnect the
charger before wiping down and/or
cleaning the electric scooter with a
damp cloth.
The charger supplied with the
electric scooter should be regularly
examined for damage to the cord,
plug, enclosure and other parts.
In the event of such damage,
the electric scooter must not be
charged until it has been repaired
or replaced.
Chargers have built-in overcharge
protection to prevent battery from
being overcharged.
Note:
If the charger gets warm
during regular use, this is a normal
response and is no cause for
concern. If your charger does not
get warm during use, it does not
mean that it is not working properly.

PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST
q
Brake
Check the brakes for proper function. When you squeeze the
lever, the brake should provide positive braking action. Make
sure that brakes are not rubbing when the lever is released.
q
Tires
Periodically inspect the tires for excess wear and regularly
check the tire pressure. Re-inflate as necessary.
q
Frame, Fork and Handlebars
Check for cracks or broken connections. Although broken frames
are rare, it is possible for an aggressive rider to run into a curb
or object and wreck and bend or break a frame. Get in the habit
of inspecting your scooter on a regular basis.
q
Hardware/Loose Parts
Before every ride, check all parts, such as nuts, bolts, cables,
fasteners, etc., to ensure they are secure and assembled
correctly. There should not be any unusual rattles or sounds from
loose parts or broken components. If the unit is damaged, do not
ride. Reference “Safety Warnings” on page 1 of this manual.
q
Safety Gear
Always wear proper protective gear, such as an approved safety
helmet. Elbow pads and kneepads are recommended. Always wear
athletic shoes (lace-up shoes with rubber soles) and keep shoelaces
tied and out of the way of the wheels, motor and drive system.
NEVER RIDE BAREFOOTED OR IN SANDALS.
q
Laws and Regulations
Always check and obey any local laws or regulations.
q
Insurance
Do not assume that your existing insurance policies necessarily
provide coverage for scooter use. Check with your insurance
company for information regarding insurance.
