WARNING
:
To reduce the risk of serious injury, read these warnings before using the scooter.
1. Read, understand, and follow all warnings and
instructions on the scooter and in this manual.
Save this manual for future reference.
2. It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that all
users of the scooter are adequately informed of,
and follow, all warnings and instructions.
3. Inspect the scooter and tighten or replace any
loose or missing parts before each use. In addi-
tion, make sure that the wheels rotate freely; the
wheel bolts are tight; the horn, turn signals, mir-
ror, and front light function well; and the brake
is properly adjusted and working.
4. Keep the tires properly inflated. Do not use the
scooter if the tires are underinflated; this can
cause loss of control and can damage the motor
or batteries.
5. Always wear protective equipment, including a
helmet, knee pads, wrist guards, elbow pads, and
closed-toed shoes, when using the scooter.
6. Keep children away from the scooter at all times.
Always turn the key to the off position and
remove it when the scooter is not in use. Always
store the scooter in a protected area where unau-
thorized use is prevented.
7. The scooter should not be used by children.
8. Never ride the scooter on streets, roadways, or
driveways that enter vehicle traffic routes. Always
comply with all local laws and regulations. Use
the turn signals before turning.
9. The scooter is not recommended for riders
weighing more than 300 pounds. To prevent seri-
ous injury or damage to the scooter, do not
exceed this maximum user weight limit.
10. Never ride the scooter on wet or uneven surfaces
or when visibility is poor. Use the front light in
darkened conditions.
11. Do not allow more than one person to ride the
scooter at a time. Never tow another person or
vehicle behind the scooter. Never allow the scoot-
er to be towed behind a bicycle, motorcycle, or

off position before performing any of the mainte-
nance or troubleshooting procedures described
in this manual.
13. Do not ride the scooter on unpaved surfaces. Do
not leave the scooter in dusty, wet, or rainy
areas. Clean the scooter after each use with a

gent. Keep the batteries and electronics dry and
protected from dirt and contaminants. Charge
the scooter only in a dry, well-ventilated area
and follow all instructions.
14. Ride the scooter only in the restricted speed set-
ting until you have familiarized yourself with the
operation of the scooter. Always use the restrict-
ed speed setting when riding the scooter indoors
or when riding the scooter in reverse.
15. The scooter is capable of high speeds, even when
the motor is first started. Adjust the speed in
small increments to avoid sudden jumps in
speed.
16. Use only the supplied charger to charge the
scooter. Do not use the charger or the scooter if
any wires or electric components become dam-
aged or frayed. Use only components or parts
supplied by the manufacturer for all repairs and
replacements.

without first deflating the tires.
