2. Profile of the auto balanced scooter
The major operating principle of the two-wheeled auto balanced scooter is based on the
"dynamic stability", which is the automatic balance of the vehicle itself. The precision
high-speed central microprocessor will calculate the appropriate commands to drive the
motor(s) to achieve a result of balance; after the precise posture state of the scooter is
determined using the built-in solid-state gyroscope. Because it is a parallel two wheel design,
this product is different from traditional two-wheel and dual spindle scooters.
The scooter is driven by a maintenance free lithium battery which can be charged repeatedly.
The vehicle does not require brakes or throttle while operating. While the driver leans
forward, the auto balance scooter will move forward. While the driver’s body is upright, the
auto balance scooter will stop. Using the principle of dynamic equilibrium, the centre of the
gravity changes until it can achieve a balance while the body moves. The two-wheel auto
balanced scooter copies the function of human legs to create balance via rotation of the
wheels either forward or backward. The operating cost is low as it moves quietly and
conveniently. In the case of a full charge it can typically drive three hours if fitted with one (1)
battery, (6hrs / 2 batteries; 9 hrs / 3 batteries) continuously before requiring recharging. The
trip distance is related to the road and terrain that you are driving on and driving on the
grass and or slopes will consume more power.
Warning instructions:
Warning - Serious injury or death may occur in the event of an accident with this scooter. A
helmet and body protection must be worn to minimize injury for in the event that an
accident occurs.
Neither the manufacturer, the importer nor any sales agents accept responsibility for any
injury sustained whilst riding this device. All liability rests with the operator.
Warning - Auto balanced scooters may not be approved for use on public roads or footpaths
in your area. It is the operator’s responsibility to check with local authorities.

4. Operational settings
All operational adjustments and settings to this scooter are preset but can be modified to
suit the owner/operators personal preferences using a smartphone, either android or iPhone.
Each scooter has a “QR Code” attached (and shown below) which can be scanned with the
smartphone to download the appropriate “mROBOT” app. Once the app is opened on the
smartphone, the operator can “search” for and select the device/scooter before making
personal choices to the scooters operational settings.

5. Driving the scooter
a. With one hand placed on the steering rod and whilst keeping the pedal level, turn on
the power switch. Then clasping the handles of the balanced scooter with your hands,
step on to the car.
b. It may be difficult to stand up if the preset pedal position is not suited to your body
dimensions and weight. This pedal position can be adjusted using your smartphone as
discussed in Item 4 above.
7
The driving of the balanced scooter is totally different from the traditional auto operation of
other vehicles. There isn’t a traditional brake, accelerator or transmission system. When you
drive the vehicle, wear protective clothing, helmet, knee pads, and elbow pads. If you drive
the two-wheel auto balanced scooter for the first time, you must read the following guidance
carefully or be trained by an experienced user.
Warning - Driving the two-wheel auto balance scooter may be very addictive, once you
experience the fun of it, you may often look for opportunities to drive it but be careful that
you do not become fatigued and incapable of making safe decisions.
1. Getting on - Stand on the auto balanced scooter by placing both hands on the handles and
then both feet on to the pedals. After stepping down on the pedals, the two-wheel auto
balanced scooter will start computing to keep balance. You will feel the scooter trying to
maintain a balance position.
The recommended order for getting on to the scooter is as follows: left hand - right foot; left
foot - right hand; or right hand - left foot; right foot - left hand.
2. Driving forward - When the body leans forwards slowly (center of gravity moves forward),
the two-wheel balanced scooter begins to travel straight forward. The speed of the scooter is
controlled by the angle of the forward lean. If the degree is bigger the speed is faster.
Conversely if the degree is smaller, the speed is slower. Lean forward slowly to achieve
smooth straight line acceleration. Lean forward quickly to achieve faster acceleration.
3. Reversing - We do not recommend that you reverse the auto balance scooter backwards.
It may be unsafe to do so. The turning radius of the two-wheel balanced scooter is zero,
therefor it can easily spin around 360 degrees. To turn around 180 degrees it is
recommended that you lean slightly back to slow and stop the scooter before attempting to
turn. Smoothly leaning backward is helpful to slow down or stop.
Grasp the handles and lean slightly forward like pushing a shopping trolley. Lean backward to
slow down or stop.
4. Turning - The turning of the two-wheel auto balanced scooter occurs by leaning the
steering lever to the left or to the right. The body must cooperate to turn to the left or to the
right at the same time by leaning in to the direction of travel.
8
Turning during travel is accomplished through the steering stem and body coordination. To
turn left, the steering lever should have a smooth swing to the left, leaning to the left in the
body at the same time. The size of the turning radius is largely dependent on the swing angle
of the steering lever.
6. Driving in wet weather - The basic two-wheel auto balanced scooter does not have
waterproof capability for driving in rain or water. When the scooter is wet, damage to the
motor and electric devices may occur which may cause abnormal operation.
The basic model of the two-wheel auto balanced scooter cannot be used in snow and ice.
The basic two-wheel auto balanced scooter is equipped with night lights which can be
switched on/off when required.
6. Battery Charging
It is recommended that caution be exercised to ensure the batteries are recharged before
the power falls below 10%. First it is important to turn off the power switch, then connect
the battery charger supplied with the scooter.
The battery charger has two lights; the red represents charging and the green represents
charging complete. The input voltage of the charger is 220-240V. The output voltage varies
depending on the particular model of scooter. The charging time is generally around six
hours to complete, at which time the green light will turn on in the battery charger. The
9
charger will become hot during charging and must be kept in a well-ventilated place.
7. Maintenance
This section covers basic maintenance. Should other problems be encountered it is
recommended that the scooter be serviced by the authorized dealer.
1. Power Switch - Please shut off the power switch when the scooter is not used.
2. Battery - The two-wheel auto balanced scooter uses maintenance free batteries. Charging
is required when indicated and generally takes around 6 hours at which time the green lamp
will glow within the battery charger. The longest charging time should not be more than 15
hours. The auto balanced scooter also should be charged when it has not been used in a long
time. Excessive discharge and recharge will have an impact on the life of battery.
(Suggestion: charging is necessary when the scooter is not used in a month)
3. Tyres - The normal pressure is 80 kpa. It is necessary to check the tyre pressure regularly.
Under or over inflation can cause uneven tyre wear and affect the maneuverability and
driving comfort of the scooter. Under-inflation can also increase the power usage. It is
recommended that the tyres be checked daily for trauma, foreign bodies and other abrasions.
The tyres should be replaced if wear or damage is excessive.
4. Cleaning –The auto balance scooter should be kept clean with a damp cloth. Do not use
any corrosive chemicals such as gasoline. Do not flush the scooter with water.
5. The warranty is 12 months from date of purchase. This is a “back to base” warranty thus it
is the owners responsibility to deliver and pick-up the scooter from the supplier.
6. It is the purchaser’s responsibility to populate the warranty card at the time of purchase
and to update the card during maintenance. Please present the warranty card to the service
agent if repairs are necessary. If the warranty card is not made available, the warranty will
expire after 13 months from the date of production.
7. Beyond the warranty period you may obtain parts from the authorized dealer or
alternatively return the auto balance scooter to the authorized dealer for repair if needed.
8. Matters needing attention
1. The scooter will come with operating parameters preset however the purchaser/operator
may set the desired pedal position, steering sensitivity and speed settings using the “mRobot
app”on their smartphone as discussed in chapter 4.
2. The two-wheel balanced scooter should be stored upright and the power switch turned off
when not in use.
3. The power switch should be turned off immediately if the scooter is placed under water
and the scooter disassembled and dried. Failure to comply with this requirement may result
in serious damage to the wheel motors and electrical circuitry. The weight of the scooter is
about 50 kg and in the absence of power it can be pushed/pulled home.
