Owner’s Manual
*The iPod product name is used for identification purposes only. iPod is a registered trademark of Apple Inc.

WARNING: Riding the iMod can be a hazardous activity.
Certain conditions may cause the equipment to fail without fault of the
manufacturer. Like other electric vehicles, the iMod can and is intended to
move, and it is therefore possible to lose control, fall off and/or get into
dangerous situations that no amount of care, instruction or expertise can
eliminate. If such things occur you can be seriously injured or die, even when
using safety equipment and other precautions. RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK
AND USE COMMON SENSE.
This manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the
consequences of failing to maintain, inspect or properly use your iMod.
Because any incident can result in serious injury or even death, we do not
repeat the warning of potential serious injury or death each time such a
possibility is mentioned.
APPROPRIATE RIDER USE AND
PARENTAL SUPERVISION
This manual contains important safety information. It is your responsibility
to review this information and make sure that all riders understand all
warnings, cautions, instructions and safety topics and assure that young
riders are able to safely and responsibly use this product. Razor recommends
that you periodically review and reinforce the information in this manual
with younger riders, and that you inspect and maintain your children’s
vehicle to insure their safety.
The recommended rider age of 12 and older for iMod is only an estimate,
and can be affected by the rider’s size, weight or skills. Any rider unable to fit
comfortably on the iMod should not attempt to ride it. A parent’s decision
to allow his or her child to ride this product should be based on the
child’s maturity, skill and ability to follow rules.
Keep this product away from small children and remember that this product
is intended for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely
comfortable and competent while operating the vehicle.
DO NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 170 pounds (77kg).
Rider weight does not necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit
or maintain control of the iMod.
Do not touch the motor on your iMod when in use as it can become very hot.
Refer to the section on safety for additional warnings.
ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND
CONDITIONS
Always check and obey any local laws or regulations which may affect
the locations where the iMod may be used on public property. The iMod is
meant to be used only in controlled environments free of potential traffic
hazards and not on public streets or sidewalks. Do not ride your iMod in any
areas where pedestrian or vehicle traffic is present.
Ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your
wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Be careful to avoid
pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children or animals who
may enter your path, and respect the rights and property of others.
Do not attempt or do stunts or tricks on your iMod. The iMod is not made to
withstand abuse from misuse such as jumping, curb grinding or any other
type of stunts.
Maintain a hold on the handlebars at all times.
Never carry passengers or allow more than one person at a time to ride the
iMod.
Keep your fingers and other body parts away from the drive chain, steering
system, wheels and all other moving components.
Never use headphones, earbuds or a cell phone when riding.
Not suited for video iPod use.
Give full attention to riding. Stop riding and turn of the iMod power switch to
“off” before adjusting volume or changing channels.
Never attempt to access iPod compartment while riding.
Never hitch a ride with another vehicle.
Do not ride the iMod in wet weather and never immerse the iMod in water, as
the electrical and drive components could be damaged
by water or create other possibly unsafe conditions.
The iMod is intended for use on solid, flat, clean and dry surfaces such as
pavement or level ground without loose debris such as rocks or gravel. Never
use near steps or swimming pools. Wet, slick or uneven and rough surfaces
may impair traction and contribute to possible accidents. Do not ride the iMod
in mud, ice, puddles or water. Avoid excessive speeds that can be associated
with downhill rides. Never risk damaging surfaces such as carpet or flooring
by use of a iMod indoors.
Do not ride at night or when visibility is impaired.
PROPER RIDING ATTIRE
Always wear proper protective equipment such as an approved safety helmet.
Elbow pads and kneepads are recommended. A helmet may be legally
required by local law or regulation in your area. Always wear shoes, never
drive barefooted or in sandals, and keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of
the wheels, motor and drive system.
USING THE CHARGER
The charger supplied with the iMod should be regularly examined for damage
to the cord, plug, enclosure and other parts, and in the event of such damage,
the iMod must not be charged until the charger has been repaired or replaced.
Use only with the recommended charger.
Use caution when charging. Do not exceed charging time.
The charger is not a toy. Charger should be operated by an adult.
Do not operate charger near flammable materials.
Unplug charger and disconnect from the battery operated product when not in
use.
Always disconnect from the charger prior to wiping down and cleaning your
scooter with liquid.
FAILURE TO USE COMMON SENSE AND HEED THE
ABOVE WARNINGS INCREASES RISK OF SERIOUS
INJURY. USE WITH APPROPRIATE CAUTION AND
SERIOUS ATTENTION TO SAFE OPERATION.

CONTENTS

Remove contents from box. Remove the foam separators that protect the components from damage during shipping.
Inspect the contents of the box for scratches in the paint, dents or kinked cables that may have occurred during
shipping. Because the iMod was 95 percent assembled and packed at the factory, there should not be any problems,
even if the box has a few scars or dents.
Estimated Assembly and Set-Up Time
Razor recommends assembly by an adult with experience in bicycle mechanics.
Allow up to 15 minutes for assembly, not including initial charge time.
Allow up to 18 hours for initial charge (see page 3 for charging information).

ASSEMBLY AND SET-UP
q Charging the Battery
Your iMod may not have a fully charged battery; therefore it is a good idea to charge the battery prior to use.
• Initialchargetime:18hours •Runtime:upto40minutes
• Rechargetime:upto12hours •Averagebatterylife:250charge/dischargecycles
depending on the level of depletion
1Turn off power switch before
charging. Plug the charger into the
charger port on the iMod.
2Plug the charger plug into a wall
outlet.
WARNING:
Rechargeable batteries are only to
be charged under adult supervision.
Always disconnect your iMod from
the charger before cleaning with
liquid.
Note: If your charger does not
look like the one illustrated,
your unit has been supplied
with an alternative charger.
The specifications and charging
procedure would not change.
The charger has a small window
with one LED or two LEDs to
indicate the charge status. Refer
to the illustration on the charger
unit for the actual “charging” and
“charged” status indications for
your model charger.
Chargers have built-in over-charge
protection to prevent battery from
being over-charged.
Be sure to properly align the
groove on the charger input
plug with the corresponding
socket on the case; otherwise,
no charging action will occur.

WARNING: Failing to
properly adjust and tighten the
bolts that affix the handlebar can
cause you to lose control and fall.
1Remove the plastic cover end
of the handlebars before inserting
the handlebars. Insert handlebar
assembly through front fairing and
into fork until it stops. Raise to de-
sired height keeping the handlebars
and fairing aligned within the red
arrows of the safety zone.

Check the Razor web site for any updates on the latest repair and maintenance procedures.
Turn power switch off before conducting any maintenance procedures.
q Adjusting the Brakes
1To adjust the play, thread the
brake lever adjuster in or out 1/4
to 1/2 turn until the desired brake
adjustment is attained. Most
adjustments are complete at this
step. If brake still needs further
adjustment, proceed to step 2.
2 If the brake lever adjuster is
threaded outward and the brake
still has too much slack, use the
rear brake adjuster for additional
adjustment.
WARNING: The brake
is capable of skidding the tire and
throwing an unsuspecting rider.
Practice in an open area free from
obstacles until you are familiar with
the brake function. Avoid skidding
to a stop as this can cause you to
lose control or damage the rear tire.
Note: The brake lever contains a
safety switch to stop the motor
when the brake is applied. In an
emergency, applying the brake
will always stop the motor. Do not
disable or replace this lever with
anything other than a genuine Razor
replacement part.
q Testing the Brakes
To use the brake, squeeze the lever to increase the pressure on the brake. The brake lever is fitted with a cable adjuster
to compensate for cable stretch and/or to fine-tune the lever movement to brake engagement. If brake is not engaging
properly, follow instructions for adjusting the brakes below.
1Remove the packing material
from the front fork.
2Insert the wheel into the front
fork with the lock washers on the
outside of the fork.
q Attaching the Front Wheel
3Insert the tab on the lock
washer into the hole on the front
fork and tighten the nuts with the
supplied wrenches.
ASSEMBLY AND SET-UP
q Checking Spoke Tension
1 Verify spoke tension by grasping and shacking each spoke. Spoke
should not be loose from hub. Look for any play between spoke flange
and hub. Try to turn nipple using your fingers. You should not be able to
turn any nipple by hand. Check all spokes and tighten if necessary.
2 Start with spoke closest to tire valve
and tighten each nipple. In sequence,
exactly 1/4 to 1/2 turn. A single 1/4 to
1/2 turn may not be enough to bring the
spokes into proper tension. Continue
tightening all spokes no more than 1/2
turn in sequence until all spokes are
tight.
WARNING: Regularly
check the spoke tension and
retighten the spokes whenever
loose. If you have any doubt, ask an
experienced motorcycle or bicycle
mechanic to inspect your spokes
to determine if the spokes need
tightening or adjusting.
Note: Tightening each nipple more
than a 1/2 turn each can cause the
wheel to become distorted and
wobbly thus permanently damaging
the wheel.

q Inflating the Tires
Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing and
your purchase.
1Using a bicycle style tire pump
equipped for a Schrader-type valve,
inflate the tires to the PSI
indicated on the sidewall of the
tires.
Note: The pressurized air supplies
found at gasoline stations are
designed to inflate high-volume
automobile tires. If you decide to
use such an air supply to inflate
your iMod tires, first make sure the
pressure gauge is working, then
use very short bursts to inflate to
the correct PSI. If you inadvertently
over-inflate the tire, release the
excess pressure immediately.
ASSEMBLY AND SET-UP
q Attaching your iPod
q Installing batteries for speakers
1Open the battery port located

4AA batteries in the battery port.
(Batteries not included)
1Open the iPod compartment and
attach player to the 30 pin connec-
tor. Place the iPod in the compart-
ment and securely fasten the cover.
