approaching a pedestrian or cyclist if you are not seen or heard. Cross protected crossings on foot.
2. Both tires must be in contact with the ground at all times. Avoid obstacles and slippery surfaces (such as snow, ice, oil, sand etc.), which could result in a loss
of balance or traction and cause a fall. The SO3 2nd GEN/ SO3 PRO is intended for indoors or use on smooth, flat surfaces. To prevent loss of traction, you must
always be careful when driving and you must identify and avoid slippery and wet surfaces, loose materials, slopes, tram tracks, potholes and other obstacles
(especially higher than 1 cm). The wheels must be able to grip the ground for you to stay upright.
3. Abrupt maneuvers and driving over slippery surfaces, bumps, and loose objects and materials, as well as performing jumps and stunts and risky behavior in
general, may cause it to lose traction and pose a risk to the operator and the device and must be avoided therefore. The driving speed must always be adjusted
to given conditions (e.g. light, weather, other traffic participants, etc.).
4. Make sure to wear flat shoes (no high heels) when using the SO3 2nd GEN/ SO3 PRO. Ask a person to help you if you are not an experienced user.

or the electricity. Note the extended braking distance on wet surfaces.
