Attention!
There are risks to riding or driving every Segboard. This one is
no exception. Remember when you learned to ride a bike? You
probably started in a safe location without traffic and had
somebody help you learn, especially to stand on the
Segboard. You started slowly.
This technique applies to your Segboard as well. If you
carefully follow all the instructions and warnings in this
manual, you should be able to teach yourself to ride. Avoid
using the Segboard if you feel tired, sleepy or you have an
health condition will affect your ability to ride safely.
Please ensure this manual is read and understood beforehand, and do pay extra attention when riding.
Always check the battery charge before using. Do not ride when the battery is low, as indicated by a flashing green light or a
solid red light, the Segboard may stop operating and cause you to fall.
Check local laws and regulations to see where and how you may use Segboard legally. Follow all applicable laws for vehicles
and pedestrians.
Avoid obstacles and slippery surfaces, which could result in a loss of balance or traction and cause a fall.
Do not exceed the maximum weight of 100 kilogram – including backpacks and other items that might be carried. Exceeding
the weight limit could injure the rider and damage the Segboard.
The Segboard cannot be used by anyone under the age of 8 (or under aprox. 25 KG).
Do not lift it off the ground when it is turned on. Do not turn on in mid-air. This will cause the wheels to spin freely, which could
result in injury to yourself.
Do not modify the Segboard. Modifications could interfere with how the Segboard operates and could result in serious injury
and/or damage. Modifications will also void your warranty.
Since the Segboard accelerates in response to your leaning forward, if you lean too far forward, too quickly, the motor will not
be able to catch up with you and you may fall. When you reach maximum speed the Segboard will automatically tilt backwards.
DO NOT attempt to accelerate further or you will fall.
Never operate any Segboard, including this one, while under the influence of drugs or alcohol or any judgment impairing
mobility and if you have any medical conditions that may affectyour ability to ride the Segboard safely.

one end of the power cord into it. Plug the other end into a
grounded AC outlet. The red charging light on the charger
unit will turn on. The charger may take up to 2 hours to
complete its charge. The red light on the charger will turn green
once it is finished.

Working and Charging Temperature
If you want the Segboard in good operational efficiency, the
battery temperature must be controlled among the range of
specification.

within the recommended values. Close to the recommended
temperature, the charging efficiency is the highest, if it is too cold
or hot, the charging time will be longer, or not fully charged.

Battery Level
A LED indicator is used to indicate battery level. When the light
is green, it means the unit has enough power. When the light
turns red, you should charge it as soon as possible. Please
check power level before usage to ensure there is enough
power for the return trip. You may want to charge it every time
after use.
When power level is lower than 15%, the LED indicator will flicker
and the buzzer will sound on which means you should stop and
recharge your Segboard.
Sustained range will decrease during winter, because the battery
performance decreases quickly in cold conditions. In -15c, for
example, battery performance is only about half in comparison
to that in room temperature.
WARNING: It will notify you when the battery charge is
dangerously low by slowing down and shaking the wheels
when you are riding it. If these warning sign occur,
immediately slow down and safely step off. Turn the unit off.
Do not attempt to ride again until the battery is recharged.

Preparation
When you want to start your first ride, please try to wear comfortable
casual or a sports outfit, wear flat shoes and in addition you must
always wear safety equipment such as helmet, knee, wrist protection
and any other safety equipment you deem necessary. Place the
Segboard in a spacious place, and ensure that there are no
obstacles around you. Ensure you are complying with the local law.
Get someone to help you when you are initially learning to ride the
hoverboard.
4.2. Steps for Riding
Set it Segboard on the ground and turn the power on. It can face
either direction. The green light on the top of the unit will light up. Put
your dominant foot on the platform, next to the wheel. Use your foot
to level the platform and activate the balancing system. The
balancing system will not active until the platform is level.
With one foot on one platform now stand up straight. Place your
other foot on the other end of the platform.
Shift your body weight gradually forward to pick up speed. Do not
lunge forward.
Shift your body weight backward to slow down or stop. If you
continue to lean back, you will be able to travel backwards.
To turn left, slightly tilt your right foot forward. To turn right, slightly
tilt your left foot forward.
To rotate on the one spot, slightly tilt one foot forward and the other
foot backward.
When you are ready to get off, slow down, stop and step off
with one foot first, then the other. Turn it off. If you do not turn
it off, it will stay on for 5 minutes allowing you to step on and
go again without engaging the on/off switch. It will shut off
automatically after 5 minutes.
REMEMBER:
Do not lift it off the ground when it is turned on.
IMPORTANT:
The top speed is 12 km/h depending on your
weight. 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. You may feel that you
are being 'pushed' back or that you cannot make it go any
faster. Do not continue leaning or bending forward to try
and increase your speed or you will fall.
4.3 Terrain and Reminders
It is intended for indoors and outdoor use on smooth, flat
surfaces. However, to prevent loss of traction, you must
always be careful when riding and learn to identify and
avoid slippery and wet surfaces, loose materials, slopes,
potholes and other obstacles.
The wheels must be able to grip the ground for you to
stay upright. Slips occur when the wheels lose traction,
potentially causing loss of control and a fall. Abrupt
manoeuvres and riding over slippery surfaces, bumps,
and loose objects and materials, may cause you to lose
traction.
Driving on rainy and snowy days is strictly forbidden under
our riding guide. Damage caused by water penetration
caused by misuse will void your warranty.
