About these instructions
1 About these instructions
Read these operating instructions before
commissioning the e-scooter, so that you can use all
the functions correctly and safely. They are not a
substitute for personal training by the supplying
specialist dealer. The operating instructions are an
integral part of the e-scooter. Therefore, if it is re-sold
at a later time, they must be handed over to the
subsequent owner.
These operating instructions are mainly intended for
the rider and user of the e-scooter, who tend to be
technical laypersons.
Staff at all specialist dealers have specialist training
and qualifications. They are thus capable of identifying
risks and preventing hazards which may arise during
maintenance, servicing and repairs on the e-scooter.
Information for specialist staff does not require non-
professionals to take any action.

2.1 Requirements for the rider
The physical, the mental and motor abilities of the rider
must be sufficient for riding on public roads. Legal
guardians hold sole responsibility for determining
whether minors are capable of using the e-scooter.

gloves and knee and elbow guards. We also
recommend that you wear close-fitting sports clothing
and sturdy footwear.
2.3 Proper use
The e-scooter may only be used in a perfect, fully
functional condition. National requirements may apply
to the e-scooter which differ from the standard
equipment. For riding on public roads, some special
regulations apply in relation to driving light, reflectors
and other components. The e-scooter is engineered
for short daily journeys on asphalted roads and paths.
It is suitable for riding on public roads. The e-scooter
is not suitable for off-road riding and jumps. The
general laws and the regulations for the prevention of
accidents and environmental protection in the

2.4 Improper use
Failure to adhere to the proper use poses a risk of
personal injury and material damage. The e-scooter is
not suitable for use under the following circumstances:
• after manipulation to the electrical drive system
• riding with a damaged or incomplete e-scooter
• riding over steps
• riding through deep water
• lending the e-scooter to untrained riders
• carrying further children, people or animals as
passengers
• riding with luggage on the handlebars
• riding with no hands
• riding on ice and snow
• improper servicing
• improper repair
• tough areas of use, such as professional competitions
• stunt riding or acrobatics.
2.5 Duty of care
E-scooter safety can only be assured if all necessary
measures are taken.
2.5.1 Rider
The rider:
• receives instruction before the first ride. They can
clarify any questions relating to the operating
instructions with the user or the specialist dealer,
• wears personal protective equipment and
• assumes all the user's obligations if the e-scooter is
passed on to someone else.

Safety
2.5.2 User
The user has the duty of care and responsibility for
scheduling these measures and checking that they are
implemented.
The user:
• makes these operating instructions available to the
rider for the duration of use of the e-scooter. If
necessary, they can translate the operating
instructions into a language which the rider
understands.
• familiarises the rider with the e-scooter's functions
before the first ride. Only riders who have received
instruction may be allowed to ride.
• instructs the rider on proper use and the wearing of
personal protective equipment.
• only employs specialist staff for e-scooter
maintenance and repair.
The printed EC declaration of conformity in the
appendix is valid providing that the e-scooter remains
unchanged from its original condition. As soon as the
user makes any relevant modifications or additions,
they legally become the manufacturer. He must
independently guarantee compliance with the EC
directives again in order to:
• bring the e-scooter into circulation again,
• apply the CE marking and
• avoid compromising occupational safety.
