4.4 Turning
The balanced wheel will conduct turns as per the movement of the handlebar and control shaft. Push the handlebar left
or right to make turns in the corresponding direction. The LED lights will flash depending on which direction you are
turning.
a. First, practise turning on one spot by moving the handlebar gradually
towards the direction you wish to turn to. The balanced wheel will turn
on the spot until you restore the handlebar to the centre position. Keep
practising to get more comfortable.
b. Turning when in motion. After getting accustomed of moving forward,
backward and turning on one spot, you may try to make turns while
going slowly forward. Keep your knees slightly bent and prepare to lean
toward the turning direction in accordance with the control shaft. Keep
practising.
Sharp turns are dangerous. You might lose balance or even fall off the
balance board. In this scenario, please decelerate and steer using slow
movements when making turns, which will help with better balance during a
turn
.
Low Battery: If both LED lights flash at the same time it means that the B5 is
on low battery mode. There will also be a beeping noise to indicate this.
Whilst in low battery mode, the speed limit will be limited to 3mph.
