SCOOTER USE
Before riding your scooter for the first time, you should fully charge the battery. This may take up to 8 hours. See the sec-
tion of this manual on battery charging for more information.
Turn the scooter on by flipping the power switch on the deck.
1. Push to Start! The scooter needs to be moving forward at about 2mph (3 km/h) before the motor will activate. Kick like
you’re riding a skateboard then twist the throttle and let the motor take over.
2. Lean to Steer! Unlike a normal scooter, the front wheels on the EZ3Nano don’t rotate with the handlebars. To turn the
scooter, just lean in the direction you want to go.
3. To stop, pull the left-hand brake lever to slow the rear wheel. Try not to skid the wheel; the solid rubber tire can develop
flat spots and cause a bumpy ride.
In order to ensure your scooter’s battery lasts as long as possible, you should fully charge the battery
after each and every ride. Please see the section of this manual on battery care for more information.
