Main Switch / lock
To unlock your JACK and prepare it for riding, an RFID
switch is provided at the top of the display. With the RFID
tag your can switch the jack on/off, by holding the tag
onto the RFID spot.
Battery level indicator
Fully charged, the JACK has a range of 25 Km. In this
situation, all 6 blocks of the battery will be visible on
thedisplay.Whenthebatteryleveldrops,rsttheup-
per block will turn off than the one underneath that
etc.
Throttle
The throttle is the main control on the JACK and is
used to control the speed of the vehicle. Turn the
throttle with your wrist to go faster. Release the throttle
and and squeeze the brake levers to stop or slow. Do
not continue holding down the throttle while squeez-
ing the brakes as this can reduce battery life or cause
damage to your JACK.
Brake levers
The JACK is equipped with disk brakes on the front
and back, operated by two levers. Just like a bicycle
or motorcycle, the harder you squeeze, the harder the
brakes operate. Take time to get used to the braking
power before using the brakes at full speed. In certain
conditions, squeezing the brakes too hard at speed
could cause the operator or unit to lose control.
Horn
The horn is situated at the right side. Use your thumb to
operate the horn (button).
Lights
The lights will automatically turn on when the JACK
is switched on. Please note that the JACK only uses
dipped beams and has no switch for high beams!

HANDLING
As the JACK is a totally new vehicle, with a unique steer
and handling, we recommend that you take time to fa-
miliarize yourself with the vehicle and to gradually ex-
plore the limits of performance with each ride. For the
safety of friends and others who will try your new JACK
it is your responsibility to guide them how to ride safely.
Make sure you have read and understood all warnings
and safety information contained in this owner’s manual
before riding.
Your rst ride

by 13 feet). It should have a level, smooth riding surface
with good traction and should be free of obstructions
and away from vehicles, bicycles, pets, small children,
and other distractions.
Exceeding the weight limits for driver plus cargo as stated in the speci-
cations, will increase risk your risk of damaging the JACK
2. Position the steer on the right height; make sure
that your arms are not over-stretched but slightly bent.
3. Make sure that your handlebar folding lock is
tight.
4. Put one foot on the footboard of the JACK and
put your other foot next to the jack on the ground, to
hold balance.

Avoiding hazards
1. The JACK is a 1-person vehicle. Do not take pas-
sengers
2. Do not step of a riding JACK; always come to a
complete standstill before stepping off the vehicle
3. Do not exceed the maximum weight limit (rider
pluscargo)asdescribedinthespecications
4. Avoid braking and operating the throttle at the
same time; this will result in unexpected vehicle behav-
ior, reduce battery life and could cause damage to the
JACK.
5. In case of an emergency, reduce the throttle
immediately and apply the brakes.
6. Avoid riding on slippery surfacesin order to keep
sufcienttractionandcontroloveryourvehicle.

steering and stopping.
8. Avoid riding over loose objects such as stone
and branches
4-1: Loose objects

Maximizing range
Maximum range distances are provided in the speci-
cations. The range of your JACK is affected by many
variables, including:
1. Terrain: Riding on smooth, at terrain improves
range and riding on hilly terrain and unpaved surfaces
reduces range
2. Speed and riding style: Riding at a consistent,
moderate speed will increase range. While frequent
starting, stopping and accelerating and deceleration
will reduce the range.
3. Tire ination pressure: Riding with tire pressures
belowthespeciedlimitreducesrange.
4. Rider weight and cargo: Lighter riders with less
cargo experience better range than heavier riders with
more cargo.
5. Temperature: Storing, charging and riding in
temperatures to the median of the recommended tem-
perature range improves range. Riding in colder tem-
peraturesreducesrangesignicantly.
6. Battery condition: Properly charged and main-
tained batteries provide greater range. Old, cold, heav-
ily used and or poorly maintained batteries provide less
range.
7. Wind: Riding with a tailwind increases range.
Riding against a headwind reduces range.

USING THE BATTERY
For your safety and the safety of others, and to maximize battery life
and performance, follow the instructions in this manual.
Do not use the batteries if the casing is:
- Broken
- Emits an unusual odor or excessive heat
- Leaks any substance
Avoid contact with any substance seeping from the batteries.
Keep Batteries out of reach of children and pets. Exposure to Battery
voltage could result in death or serious injury. Unplug and disconnect
your JACK from AC power before removing or installing Batteries or
performing any service. It is hazardous to work on any part of your
JACK when it is plugged into AC power. You risk serious bodily injury
from electric shock as well as damage to your JACK. The cells within
the Battery contain toxic substances. Do not attempt to open the Bat-
tery. Do not insert any object into the Battery or use any device to pry
at the Batteries casing. If you insert an object into the Batteries’ port or
openings you could suffer electric shock, injury, burns, or cause a re.
Attempting to open the Batteries casing will damage the casing and
could release toxic and harmful substances. Only charge the Battery
using charging devices approved by LEEV Mobility. Comply with all
local and federal and individual country laws when disposing or and
transporting the JACK Batteries.
The JACK has 1 battery in its foodboard. For charging
the JACK you will need a JACK charger (included). Fol-
low these simple steps for charging:
6-1: charging components
1. Place your JACK in a dry environment within the
recommended charging temperature range.
2. Make sure the main switch (RFID) is off.
3. Verify that the charge port, power cord and AC
power outlet are clean, dry and free of debris.
4. Plug the connector into the charge port of the
JACK.
5. Plug the charger into a AC power outlet or
surge protector.
Charging takes about 5 hours for a full charge. During
charging, 1 red LED is lit on the charger. When the bat-
tery isfully charged, the LED turns green. After charging,
unplug the connector from the charge port. The JACK
is ready to go!

To maximize the performance and life of your batteries,
fully charge them for at least 12 hours, once a month,
or after every 12 hours of operation—whichever comes
rst.Chargeyourbatteriesonlywhentheyarewithinthe
speciedchargingtemperaturerange.
Battery status indicator
There are 6 blocks of battery on the display. When the
batteryleveldrops,rsttheupperblockwillturnoffthan
the one underneath that etc. Until the last block is only
visible, indicating low Batteries.
Shipping the batteries
Li-polymer batteries are considered hazardous materials
under shipping regulations. Comply with all local, fed-
eral and individual country laws when transporting the
JACK battery. When shipping a whole JACK, make sure
to detach the battery.
Do not insert the plug if the Charge Port, Power Cord or AC Power outlet
is wet.
Always keep the charge port cover closed, except when you are
charging the JACK. Closing the charge port cover prevents water, dirt,
dust and other contaminates from entering the charge port and caus-
ing damage to your JACK.
Do not use or transport a Battery if the casing breaks open, leaks any
substance, becomes excessively hot, or if you detect an unusual odor.
Do not handle a damaged or leaking Battery unless you are wearing
disposable rubber gloves, eye protection, and are in a well-ventilated
area. Dispose of the rubber gloves and damaged Battery properly in
accordance with regulations governing disposal of toxic materials.
