WARNING:
Riding an electric scooter does present potential risks
and caution is required. Like any riding product, an electric scooter has
inherent hazards associated with its use (for example, falling off or riding
it into a hazardous situation). Like any riding product, electric scooters can
and are intended to move and it is therefore, of course, possible 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 die even when using safety equipment and
other precautions. RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.
WARNING:
PARENTAL AND ADULT RESPONSIBILITY AND
SUPERVISION IS NECESSARY:
Because products, like electric scooters,
can and do present potential hazards plainly associated with their use, it is
well recognized THE NEED FOR EXERCISE OF PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
IN SELECTING RIDING PRODUCTS APPROPRIATE TO THE AGE OF A CHILD,
OR PARENTAL SUPERVISION IN SITUATIONS IN WHICH CHILDREN OF
VARIOUS AGES MAY HAVE ACCESS TO THE SAME RIDING PRODUCTS, IS
IMPORTANT. Not every product is appropriate for every age or size of child,
and 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.
The recommended minimum rider age is 8 and older.
Any rider 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.
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.
DO NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 120 lb (54 kg). Rider weight
does not necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit or
maintain control of the scooter.
CHECK AND MAINTAIN SCOOTER CONDITIONS
Before use, check to confirm that covers and guards are in place and in
serviceable condition. Check that the brake is functioning properly, and
that the wheels are free of flat spots from wear. The scooter should
be maintained and repaired in accordance with the manufacturer’s
specifications, using only the manufacturer’s authorized replacement
parts, and should not be modified from the manufacturer’s original design
and configuration.
ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS
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 cars and motor vehicle traffic at all times. Only use
where allowed and with caution.
Do not activate the throttle unless you are on the scooter and in a safe,
outdoor environment suitable for riding.
The electric scooter must be
moving at least 3 mph (5 km/h) before the motor will engage.
The normal powered top speed of this scooter will be approximately 10 mph
(16 km/h), which can be affected by conditions, such as rider weight, inclines
and battery charge level. Avoid excessive speeds that can be associated with
downhill rides.
Maintain a hold on the handlebars at all times. Do not touch the brake or
motor on your scooter when in use or immediately after riding, as these parts
can become very hot.
Ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your
wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Be careful to avoid
pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children or animals who
may enter your path, and 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 impair traction
and contribute to possible 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 attempt or do stunts or tricks on your electric scooter. The scooter is
not made to withstand abuse from misuse, such as jumping, curb grinding
or any other type of stunts. Racing, stunt riding, or other maneuvers also
enhance risk of loss of control, or may cause uncontrolled rider actions
or reactions.
Never allow more than one person at a time to ride the scooter.
Do not ride at night or when visibility is limited.
Never use near steps or swimming pools.
Do not allow hands, feet, hair, body parts, clothing, or similar articles to come
in contact with moving parts or wheels while the motor is running.
Do not touch hot brake or electric motor when in use or immediately
after riding.
Never use headphones or a cell phone to talk or text when riding.
Never hitch a ride with a vehicle.
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.
PROPER RIDING ATTIRE
Always wear proper protective equipment, such as an approved safety
helmet (with chin strap securely buckled), elbow pads and kneepads.
A helmet may be legally required by local law or regulation in your area.
A long-sleeved shirt, long pants, and gloves 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.
