Always unplug the battery charger from the scooter before starting to drive.
Make sure you are familiar with the operation of your scooter before using it on crowded and
possibly dangerous places. First exercise at a specious, open area with little bystanders and
ask someone to accompany you.


the scooter is on a flat surface with all wheels touching the ground;

3.2 Operating your scooter
Risk of injuries or damage

Do NOT drive on slopes, obstacles, steps or kerbs larger than the size described in the
technical specifications in chapter 6.

Take the local road traffic law into consideration; it may differ per country.

Do not adjust the speed while you are driving.

Take the weather conditions into consideration. Avoid driving by moist weather, extreme heat,
snow, black ice, freezing temperatures; see technical specifications in chapter 6.

To prevent tipping over, try to drive with a large turning radius at corners and curves. Do not
cut corners and don’t drive with sharp bends. Try to drive straight in small passages to prevent
getting entrapped.

Do not lean too far to the left/right/front/back of the scooter to prevent tipping over. Please
pay specially attention when you are negotiating slopes and obstacles.

Be aware of other road users to whom your scooter may be an obstacle. Pay special attention
when turning, reversing or driving backward. If you are not acquainted with driving backwards,
first practice in an open area. Indicate the direction you intent to go before cornering.
