6. Scooter Status and Settings
The main view of the display shows the battery indicator, speedometer, gear (1–3), and the odometer or
another option picked by the user. The display is equipped with a backlight.
If the battery level is low, stop riding, turn off the scooter, and fully recharge the battery. Riding the scooter
with a low battery level causes the scooter performance to fall and decreases its acceleration, speed, and
braking efficiency. It also reduces the lifetime of the battery.
Four icons are not visible in normal circumstances but appear under failure conditions:
–Top row: brake failure, motor failure, handle failure. Try restarting the scooter. If it does not resolve the
issue, contact the customer service.
–Second row: system failure. In the event of a system failure, stop using the scooter immediately and
contact the customer service.
To access the settings, press and hold the Gear Up and Gear Down buttons simultaneously. Then press
the ON/OFF button to browse the settings. Adjust with Up and Down buttons. To exit the settings, press
and hold the Up and Down buttons simultaneously.
Available settings: P01: Units; P02: Cruise control on/off; P03: Zero-start with the throttle on/off; P04: Tire
size in inches.

7. Light
A LED light is located in front of the T-bar. To switch it on or off, press the button above it. Using the light
is recommended when riding in the dark or under poor visibility.
8. Brakes
The electric front brake lever is located on the left handlebar. The rear wheel cover functions as the
emergency foot brake. Use either or both brakes to stop the scooter. To prevent accidents, avoid using the
electric front brake while turning and on slippery roads. As with other devices, faster speeds require longer
braking distances. Sudden braking on low-traction surfaces could lead to wheel slips or falls. Be cautious
and always keep a safe distance between you and other people or vehicles when riding.NB! We
recommend using both brakes simultaneously to brake sharply or when riding downhill. The electronic
brake does not function when using the scooter with the motor OFF. Use the emergency brake instead.

•11. How to Ride the Electric Scooter
•Before the first ride - charge the e-scooter to 100%.
•Place the scooter on level ground.
•Activate the scooter by holding down the ON/OFF button on the right side of the display.
•Place your hands on the handlebar. Place one foot on the platform and use the other foot to
push off.
•Then push the throttle on the right side of the T-bar and place both feet on the platform. Stay relaxed.
•To stop the scooter, release the throttle and use the electric brake or the mechanical foot brake.
•To steer the scooter, turn the handle either left or right and tilt your body in the same direction.
•To get off, first bring the scooter to full stop. Trying to step off the moving e-scooter may
result in injuries.
•To switch off the scooter, press and hold the ON / OFF button.
When driving at night or in dark places, turn on the headlight.
12. Maximum Riding Range
Maximum riding range depends on several variables:
•Terrain: driving on smooth pavement gets a higher range than driving on bumpy roads and hillsides.

14
•User’s weight: the heavier the user, the shorter the range.
•Temperature: riding the scooter in a very cold or hot environment impacts the range.
•Riding speed and style: smooth and steady riding extends the range. Accelerating and
manoeuvring aggressively decreases the range. Lower speed extends the range.
•Maintenance: timely charging and proper maintenance increase the range.
13. How to Charge
Before charging, turn off the scooter. The scooter is equipped with a powerful charger. Charging from
0% to 100% takes 3-4 hours. Always charge the scooter to 100% if possible. Make sure to charge it to
100% the first three times. For more information, see the Charging section above.
Warning:
•Make sure that the e-scooter, the charger, and the charging port of the scooter are dry.
•Use only the original charger. Other chargers damage the device and carry other potential risks.
•The scooter must not be charged over extended periods. Overcharging shortens the battery life.
•Charge the scooter in a dry environment, away from any flammable materials (i.e. materials that may burst into
flames), preferably at an indoor temperature of 15-25°C, but never under 0°C or over +45°C.
•Do not charge in direct sunlight or near an open fire.
•Do not charge the scooter immediately after use. Let the scooter cool down for one hour before charging.
•Never leave the e-scooter unattended while charging.
•Risk of arcing! Never bridge the DC charging socket with metal objects.

15
14. Storing and Cleaning
Charge the scooter to 50%-60% before storing it for off-season or any longer period. Charge it again to
50%-60% every 2-3 months. When not in everyday use, it is recommended to store the scooter at 15-
25°C. Do not expose the scooter to low (under 0°C) and high (over 45 °C) temperatures. Avoid leaving it
outdoors, as it is not water resistant.
When the scooter gets dirty, clean it with a damp cloth. Before cleaning, make sure the e-scooter is turned
off and cover the charging port to avoid problems with the electronics. Do not use alcohol, gas, kerosene,
or any other corrosive and volatile chemical solvents. This can damage both the appearance and the
internal structure of the e-scooter. Do not use pressurized water‐guns or running water for cleaning. The
electric kick scooter is not waterproof. Do not expose it to rain or water nor soak it nor wash it with water.
15. Battery
Please read the charging and storing sections above to properly maintain and handle the battery.
Keep the scooter away from open flame or other sources of heat to prevent the battery from overheating.
Do not leave the scooter at freezing temperatures. Excessive heat and cold can both cause the battery to
discharge.
Avoid fully draining the battery. It is best to recharge the battery while there is still some charge remaining.
Doing so extends battery life. When the charge gets too low, normal riding cannot be sustained. This may
expose the rider to loss of control or falling.

16
Make sure the battery is charged at regular intervals, even if you do not use the e-scooter for a long period
of time. Doing so prevents damage to the battery caused by low voltage over an extended period.
Precautions for the battery:
The battery consists of Li-ion cells and chemical elements hazardous to your health and the environment.
Do not use the scooter if it is emitting any odor, substance, or excessive heat. Do not dispose of the e-
scooter or the battery together with household waste. As the end user, you are responsible for the
disposal of electric and electronic equipment and batteries in accordance with all applicable regulations.
Do not:
•open or disassemble the battery or strike, throw, puncture, or stick objects in the battery,
•touch any substance leaking out of the battery, since it contains hazardous substances,
•let children or animals touch the battery,
•over-charge, over-discharge or short-circuit the battery,
•immerse or expose the battery to water or any other liquid substance,
•expose the battery to excessive heat or cold,
•expose the battery to an environment containing explosive gases or fire,
•leave the battery in rain or direct sunlight or hot cars under direct sunlight,
•reassemble or refit the battery,
•transport or store the battery together with metal objects such as hairpins, necklaces, etc.,
•ride the e-scooter while charging,
•use any other charger beside the original.
In the case of severe damage to, or deformations of, the battery, stop using the e-scooter.
