CHARGING THE BATTERY
PAD SENSORS
There are four sensors under the pad. Never remove the pad or you will revoke
the warranty. When the V6-XL is turned on and you step on, it will automatically
adjust to the balance mode. Please don’t step outside the outlined pad.
Please do not put items on the pad; that will prevent the V6-XL from switching
off, which could cause a collision. The device will not move without putting
pressure on at least one sensor.
CHARGING BATTERY
Your V6-XL comes with a rechargeable lithium ion battery. Always use the
provided charger only. Before your rst ride you must fully charge the
V6-XL - charge for 4 hours. For every ride after, charge your V6-XL until it is fully
charged, and NOT LONGER. Do not leave any chargers plugged in overnight,
or leave it plugged in past the charge time.
1. Plug one end of the power cord into a grounded AC outlet and the other
into the V6-XL’s Charging Port. The red charging light on the charger unit will
turn on.
2. The red light will turn green once fully charged. Recharge the V6-XL after
each use.
(Please note: Always plug the charger into the wall rst before the device. If the
wall outlet doesn’t have power and you plug the charger into the device rst, it
will light green, even if the battery is not full. So always plug into the wall rst to
make sure there is power.)
THE CHARGER OFFERS A CHARGING STATUS ON THE TOP OF THE
CHARGER:
Charging Light Red battery is charging.
Charging Light Green charging is complete.
Stop riding immediately if the V6-XL displays low power.
Don’t use the hoverboard if the battery emits strange odors, overheats, or
begins leaking. If the battery does leak, do not touch any leaking materials, as
the battery contains dangerous substances. Do not open the battery and do
not insert anything into the battery.
Only use the provided charger for the V6-XL. Do not charge the battery if it has
over-discharged. It should be discarded for your safety.

8
BATTERY LEVEL INDICATOR LIGHT
An LED indicator on the top of the device is used to indicate battery level.
When the light is green, it means the device has over 50% battery power.
When the light is yellow, there is 49%-20% battery power remaining. When the
light turns red, there is less then 20% battery power remaining and should be
charged as soon as possible. Always check the power level before using the
V6-XL to ensure there is enough power.
Warning: If battery power goes below 10%, the device will automatically turn
off for your safety.
The Ride Jetson App is available for download from the App Store and the
Google Play Store, and unlocks exciting features on your V6-XL. Simply install
the app and connect to your V6-XL via Bluetooth® (as detailed below).

HOW IT WORKS
WORKING PRINCIPLES
The V6-XL uses Active Balance Technology and acceleration sensors to control
balance intelligently, depending on a center of gravity. Built-in inertia dynamic
stabilization systems maintain the direction of forwards and backwards,
however, it cannot guarantee the stability of left and right. When you ride, be
sure to shift your weight to overcome centrifugal force and improve turning
safety.
SAFE RIDING
• Always wear comfortable clothes and closed-toe, at shoes. Use the V6-XL in
a spacious area and ensure that there are no signicant obstacles in the way.
Make sure the charger is unplugged before riding the V6-XL. Clothing should
not be so loose that a garment may be caught on a passing object or in the
wheels; this could result in loss of control and personal injury. The V6-XL is
intended to use indoors or on smooth, at surfaces.
• The power button is located near the center of the device, on the opposite
side of the charging port. Press it until you hear the V6-XL beep to turn it on or
off.
• The range of the V6-XL is dependent upon the way you use it. The battery will
run out quicker if you ride at high speeds and/or up or down an incline.
GETTING ON AND OFF
• Be careful getting on and off the V6-XL. Always step forward when
getting on the V6-XL and step backward when getting off. Getting on
and off the V6-XL in any other manner may result in a fall.
• Set the V6-XL on at ground and turn the power on.
• Put one foot on the pad and the green light on top of the unit will light up.
• Lift your other foot slowly and place it on the other pad.
• When standing on the V6-XL, keep your feet shoulder-width apart. Do not
stand on the center portion of the V6-XL. Keep a relaxed, upright posture, with
your knees slightly bent.
• After standing up successfully, remain upright and maintain your
balance to keep the V6-XL stationary.
• Shift your body weight gradually to pick up speed. Do not lunge
forward or backward. Slight movements will pick up speed, so be cautious as
you become accustomed to the V6-XL.
• When you are ready to get off the V6-XL, come to a complete stop by getting
to an upright and stationary position.
• Step off with one foot rst behind the unit and then step down with the other.
• Once you are safely off, power down the V6-XL. If you do not turn it off, it will
stay on for 10 minutes allowing you to step on and go again without engaging
the power button. The V6-XL will shut off automatically after 10 minutes.

11
HOW TO RIDE
• Moving forward: Lean forward on both platforms and/or point your toes
downward to move forward.
• Moving backward: Lean backward on both platforms and/or push your heels
down to move backward.
• Turning right: point your left toes downward, rotating the platform forward to
turn right.
• Turning left: point your right toes downward, rotating the platform forward to
turn left.
• To rotate: slightly tilt one foot forward and the other foot backward.

12
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
DRIVING RANGE
The average range of the V6-XL is 14 miles. However, a lot of factors will affect
how far you can go per charge:
• Driving surface: A smooth, at surface will increase driving distance.
• Weight: More weight means less distance.
• Ambient temperature: Please ride and store the V6-XL under recommended
temperature, which will increase its longevity and driving distance.
• Maintenance: Timely battery charging and maintenance will increase driving
distance.
• Speed and driving style: Maintaining a moderate speed will increase
distance. Frequent starting and stopping, acceleration, and decelertion will
reduce it.
SPEED LIMIT
The top speed of the V6-XL is 12 mph. When you approach the maximum
speed, it will try to prevent you from accelerating further. It will tilt back in order
to shift your weight backward. Do not continue leaning or bending forward to
try to increase your speed or you will fall.
WEIGHT LIMIT
The maximum load is 275 lbs., and the minimum load is 45 lbs. Going above
the maximum weight limit can cause injury, and going below the minimum
weight limit will disable control features. If your weight is slightly above 45 lbs.
and you nd the hoverboard shaking, please adjust the sensitivity or force in
the Ride Jetson app and it should no longer shake.
TERRAIN
The V6-XL behaves differently depending on riding terrain and other
conditions. When using it, please keep the following in mind:
• The V6-XL is intended for use on smooth, at surfaces. To prevent loss of
traction, always be careful when riding, and learn to identify and avoid slippery
and wet surfaces, loose materials, slopes, potholes, and other obstacles. Stop
and step off the V6-XL when you come to unsafe surfaces or terrain.
• The wheels must be able to grip the ground for you to stay upright. Slips
occur with loss of traction, potentially causing loss of control and a fall. Abrupt
maneuvers and riding over slippery surfaces, bumps, and loose objects and
materials may cause the V6-XL to lose traction.

13
PROTECTION FUNCTION
If there is a system error or improper operation during usage, the V6-XL may
give you a prompt. This will only occur under certain conditions, such as:
• Surface angle exceeds 20° (If the angle is more than 35° the motor will shut
off after 15 seconds).
• Maximum speed is reached.
• Motor is overheating or overcharging.
• System enters overcharging protection mode (the green indicator will light
up).
• A wheel is blocked (the V6-XL will shut down after 2 seconds).
• Battery is low but still being used (the V6-XL will turn the motor off after 15
seconds).
• Balancing in a neutral position for over 30 seconds.
HOW TO RECALIBRATE
When the V6-XL experiences an error, the running indicator light will turn red.
That means it will not operate until it is properly recalibrated. Please do not try
getting on the unit until the error has been xed. To recalibrate, follow these
steps:
1. Put the hoverboard on a at, level surface, with the pads facing up.
2. Press and hold the Power Button for about 5 seconds until the lights on the
V6-XL ash, and you are notied of a successful calibration.
3. Turn it OFF and then ON again to restart the V6-XL. That completes the
recalibration, and is now ready for use.
STORAGE
• If you plan on storing the V6-XL for a substantial period of time, please make
sure you fully charge the battery before storing. The battery should be fully
charged once a month after this.
• You should bring the V6-XL into a warm environment (above 50 degrees
Fahrenheit) for charging.
• To protect against dust, cover the V6-XL.
• Store the V6-XL indoors, in a dry place and at a suitable temperature.
• Do not leave the V6-XL plugged into the charger for long periods of time.

14
Here are some useful tips to make sure you always have a safe ride:
• Children, the elderly, and pregnant women should not use the V6-XL.
• Do not ride after drinking or taking prescription medication.
• Do not carry items when riding.
• Prior to each ride, inspect each part of the V6-XL to ensure it has been
maintained correctly and is functioning properly.
• Always give way to pedestrians.
• Always comply with local trafc laws and regulations. Remember, the
V6-XL is a motor vehicle, and is treated as such by local law enforce-
ment. You can and will be arrested for drunk driving. Many cities have
restrictions on where you can drive motor vehicles, as well as additional
restrictions on driving non-automobiles on streets and highways.
• Be alert to things in front and far away from you.
• Make sure your feet are always placed securely on the pad sensors.
•The V6-XL cannot be ridden by more than one person. Only one per-
son can ride at a time.
• A rider may not weigh less than 45 lbs. The V6-XL is unable to oper-
ate properly with such a rider, especially on downhill terrain where the
driver will be unable to reduce speed or stop safely.
• When you ride the V6-XL along with hoverboard users, always keep a
safe distance to avoid a collision.
• When turning, be sure to maintain your balance.
• Do not allow distractions when riding, such as answering the phone or
engaging in any other activities.
• Avoid riding in the rain or on smooth surfaces such as snow or ice.
• Do not ride on roads with obstacles (such as litter, small stones, etc.).
• Avoid riding in narrow spaces or on steep slopes.
• Avoid riding around ammable gas, steam, liquid, or dust that could
cause re.
• Never operate the product barefooted and keep shoelaces tied.
