Your board has the potential to lose power and braking at
any time due to interference between your remote and the
board, dropping your remote, a fully discharged remote,
braking for too long when the battery is fully charged, and
other factors. You should only ride your Jed Board within
your means, and at speeds and on terrain where you’re
comfortable without power and brakes.
Hills and high speed riding can be extremely dangerous as
a crash could result in serious injuries or death. Be extra
careful when riding your board, always ride within your
means and with safety equipment – including but not limited
to a helmet and knee/elbow pads, and appropriate footwear
– even if you are an experienced rider.
Whilst measures have been taken to prevent overcharging
through our braking resistor circuitry, care must be taken
to ensure you always ride within your means and on hills
you are comfortable without power and brakes. Extended
braking downhill on a full battery charge has the potential
to cause a shut-down and loss of braking power to prevent
overcharging the battery.
Other vehicles have the potential to seriously injure or kill
you. Always be mindful and aware of your surroundings
when riding around other vehicles. It’s important to assume
that other vehicles cannot see you, and you should ride
accordingly always being safe. Please obey all laws
regarding the use of your board on public roads, bike paths,
footpaths or other places.
Do not ride your Jed Board in wet or icy conditions. Whilst
the board has been designed to handle a light amount of
water, it has the potential to cause damage to your board
which is not covered under warranty. Riding in wet or icy
conditions is extremely dangerous and has the potential for
serious injury or death from a loss of traction and control. Do
not submerge your board or any part in water.
Riding at night time or in areas with poor visibility increases
the risk of an accident, if you need to ride in these conditions,
please use appropriate lighting to ensure you are both visible
to others, and that you can see the road ahead.
WARNING: DO NOT RIDE YOUR BOARD UNTIL YOU READ THIS IMPORTANT INFORMATION

THE JED BOARD CHARGER / BATTERY

13 Jed Board User Guide

charger. The charger communicates with
battery when connected to ensure safe
and reliable charging.
To charge your Jed Board battery pack,
please follow these instructions:
1. Remove the battery pack
from your Jed Board.
2. Power off the battery by holding the
power button down for 5 seconds.
3. Connect your charger to your
wall outlet and then plug it
into the charge port.
4. You will hear a “click” from
the charger, this is the safety
relay switching to allow
the battery to charge.
5. When charging is completed you will
hear another “click” from the charger.
WARNING: Only use the included Jed Board charger with
your battery pack, using any other charger is not supported,

14 Jed Board User Guide
SWAPPABLE BATTERY
Your Jed Board includes a high
capacity, swappable lithium-ion
battery pack.
Sensors measure many different
aspects of the battery pack and
communicate this to your Jed
Board motor controller to ensure
the battery is always running at
optimal levels.
Hot Weather
When riding your Jed Board in
temperatures above 35°C (95°F)
you may find that your battery
pack will limit power when riding
up steep hills, this is to keep
your battery pack protected from
overheating.
In the event this happens, please
wait 5 minutes for the battery to
cool down before riding again.
Cold Weather
When riding in colder weather
from 5°C (41°F), you may notice
a reduction in range due to how
lithium batteries operate in cold
weather situations.
Water
Your battery pack is designed
to operate to IP65 levels of
water resistance. Whilst it can
tolerate some water, we do not
recommend riding in the rain.
Additionally avoid riding through
large puddles or deep water
as this may potentially cause
damage which is not covered
under warranty.

AIRLINE TRAVEL TIPS

19 Jed Board User Guide
AIR TRAVEL
Your swappable battery pack is
rated to 144Wh. IATA rules allows
passengers to travel with up to two
batteries on-board, providing they
are each less than 160Wh.
This means you can travel with all
boards in our line-up.
Please note that some airlines may
require prior approval in order to
carry on batteries consisting of
99-160Wh, always check with your
airline prior to flying.
The Jed Garage™ app features a
tool that lets you generate a letter
you can send to your airline regarding
your battery pack to assist with
approval. Head to the “Flight Safe”
section within the app for details.
Always remove the battery from the
board and store it in your carry on
luggage when traveling.
Avoid sharp objects, liquids and
other items that may cause potential
damage to the battery pack.
Check your board in without the
battery and be sure to safely protect
the board to avoid unnecessary
damage by baggage handlers. We
suggest either using the box your
board arrived in, or a snowboard
bag or similar.
If you do encounter issues with
airport security, please remain calm
and polite at all times and display
the battery label to them, and
explain that IATA allows two carry
on batteries up to 160Wh each, and
that your batteries fall within this
category being 144Wh.
At this time you may also be able
to present them with the PDF that
was generated via the “Flight Safe”
section of the Jed Garage™ app.
At no time is Jed Boards liable should
any airport or airline security confiscate
your battery pack from you. Please
ensure you always act in accordance
with the law and rules of the airport and
country you are in.
