FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
CAN AND MAY LEAD TO DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE, VOID YOUR
MANUFACTURER WARRANTY, LEAD TO PROPERTY DAMAGE, CAUSE
SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, AND CAN LEAD TO DEATH.
OPERATING YOUR DEVICE
Make sure the device is fully charged before the first initial use. Before
turning on your Jive scooter, ride it like a normal kick scooter to get
comfortable with the device before using it with the motor.
When comfortable riding the scooter, power it on. For the motor to
activate, you must first start riding the scooter and then push the
throttle down with your thumb.
To slow down the scooter, disengage the Throttle and squeeze the
Brake handle to engage the disk brake. The Brake is pressure sensitive
so a tighter grip means more stopping power.
To turn, use the handlebar to turn in the direction you wish to turn.
The Jive scooter can be operated manually if you do not wish
to use the motor.
As you get comfortable on the device, you will notice it becomes
easier to maneuver. Remember at higher speeds, it is necessary to
shift your weight to overcome the centrifugal force.
Prepare to brace yourself if you encounter bumps or uneven surfaces,
then dismount and carry your Jive to a safe operating surface.
WEIGHT AND SPEED LIMITATIONS
Speed and weight limits are set for your own safety. Please do not
exceed the limits listed in the “Specifications” section of this manual.
OPERATING RANGE
The following are some of the major factors that will affect the
RIDING YOUR JIVE SCOOTER
WARNING
Do not turn sharply or at high speeds to
avoid danger. Do not turn or ride quickly
along slopes, as it may cause injury.
operating range of your device.
• Terrain: Riding distance is highest when riding on a smooth, flat
surface. Riding uphill and/or on rough terrain will reduce distance
significantly.
• Weight: A lighter user will have further range than a heavier user.
• Ambient temperature: Please ride and store the device under
recommended temperatures, which will increase driving distance;
battery life, and overall performance of your device.
• Speed and Riding Style: Maintaining a moderate and consistent
speed while riding produces maximum distance. Traveling at high
speeds for extended periods, frequent starts and stops, idling and
frequent acceleration or deceleration will decrease overall distance.
*Do not attempt to stop suddenly as this may lead to injury or damage to
your brake discs.
Please follow all local, state and federal laws in regards to recycling,
handling and disposing of Lithium-ion Battery.
While riding your Jive Scooter, if there is a system error or illegal
operation performed the device will prompt the user in a variety
of ways.
The following are common occurrences where you will see Safety
Alerts. These notices should not be ignored, but appropriate action
should be taken to correct any illegal operation, failure or errors.
• Prohibited riding surfaces (uneven, too steep, unsafe, etc.)
WARNING
Overweight exertion on the device
may increase possibility of injury or
product damage.
• Battery voltage is too low.
• The device is still charging.
• Overheating, or motor temperature is too high.
• When the b attery is about to run out of power, the battery icon
will flash.
• If any or both tires are blocked, the device will stop after 10
seconds.
• When the battery level has depleted below protection mode, the
device motor will power off after 15 seconds.
While sustaining a high discharge current during use (such as riding
up a steep slope for a long period of time), the device motor may
slow down or shut off because of high temperature.
