1. Learning to ride an electric unicycle takes between 5 minutes and a few days, depending on the
person. It's like learning to ride a bike again. It is advisable to take the basic training at the dealer who
sold you the unicycle or under the guidance of an experienced rider. By scanning the QR code you will
find a video to help you. It is essenal that you wear a helmet, arm, knee and elbow protectors and
ankle boots during your training and aerwards.
2. ALWAYS ride an electric unicycle with a helmet, arm, elbow and knee protecon. We recommend
the use of a helmet with chin protecon, special protecve clothing (motorcycle jacket and trousers) with back
protecon.
3. Direcon signals must be signaled by hand, despite the fact that some unicycles have automac direcon lights.
A right turn must be preceded by a right hand poinng with the straight hand, a le turn with the le hand.
Braking - the brake light on the wheel should be illuminated as a braking signal, and the signal may also be given by
raising the right hand. While driving, in addion to nocing what is in front of you and what is to your side, you
must also be aware of what is behind you. If looking back over your shoulder does not seem safe, you should strap
on a helmet or pick up a rear-view mirror.
4. When riding in the dark or in poor visibility, make sure your electric unicycle has working lights and that you are
clearly visible to other road users. To ensure beer visibility, it is advisable to aach an addional front and rear
light to your helmet in addion to the headlight of your electric unicycle and to wear a reflecve vest or reflecve
clothing.
5. Before riding a unicycle, find an opportunity to learn and pracce riding in a safe area. If necessary, use the
assistance of an instructor. Before riding on public roads, make sure that you can react to unexpected situaons by
braking suddenly or swerving if necessary.
WARNING! Braking abruptly or in a bend can cause loss of control, which can lead to serious injuries.
serious injury. When driving, always ensure that your road is safe and drive at a speed appropriate to the driving
condions.
Braking distances increase in wet driving condions.
6. Before riding a unicycle, understand the laws, rules and restricons that apply to unicyclists. Unless expressly
permied by traffic law, do not ride an electric unicycle on the road. When riding on the pavement (if permied by
traffic law), do not obstruct pedestrians and other light traffic and do not exceed the maximum speed limit.
7. The manufacturer, the importer and the distributor shall not be liable for any accident or its consequences,
whatever the cause, including technical failure, during the use of the electric unicycle. An electric unicycle is an
electronic device which may have a technical defect, even if it is new or has been directly inspected. It is the
responsibility of the user of an electric unicycle to choose a riding style that will limit injuries and damage in the
event of unexpected failure.
Before charging, turn off the unicycle. Plug the charger first into the wall and then
connect it to the unicycles charging port
Charging from 0%-100% takes about 8 hours the standard charger and about half
that with two chargers.
It is recommended to charge your unicycle at room temperature.
WARNING!
DO NOT charge the unicycle if the charge port or power cord is wet.
DO NOT charge or use your baery if it is damaged or see trace of water.
Aer charging always place the charging port cover back over the charging port.

5. Serial number
Veteran electric unicycles have a unique serial number. You are going to need
this number when there is any problem or queson you may have about your
unicycle.
The serial number can be found on the rim of the unicycles motor or seen in
the app.
Keep the serial number saved for future reference. You will also need the serial
number in case you intend to have your unicycle insured.

6. Maintenance
Regularly check the condion of the re and add pressure if necessary. The recommended pressure is
between 2.5 and 3.0 bar, but it can be lower depending on the weight of the rider, driving style and re
type. NOTE: Riding with lower pressure can cause a puncture or damage to the rim. DO NOT ride an
electric unicycle if the re is damaged or does not hold air.
Ensure that the unicycles shell and other components remain ghtly together, especially aer falls or
impacts, and that there are no cracks in the casing or between parts of the casing where dust and
moisture can damage the wheel. If they occur, the wheel should be serviced immediately and repaired if
necessary.
Compared to an electric scooter, an electric unicycle is (with careful use) much more maintenance-free,
as there are no components that can become loose, such as the handlebars, the folding mechanism and
the brakes. Nonetheless, there are also sensive areas on the unicycle that require regular inspecon
and maintenance.
The maintenance intervals required for the warranty to be valid are: 1) 300km since purchase. 2) Every
1000km or at least once a year - regular maintenance. The maintenance is carried out by the official
maintenance partner Voltride Service (voltride.com).
Cleaning - Use a damp so cloth to clean the electric unicycle. Use a brush to clean dirt that is difficult
to remove. DO NOT use alcohol or any other solvents to clean the electric single wheel. DO NOT use a
pressure washer or water to clean the electric unicycle. Also, do not immerse the electric unicycle in
water. The electric unicycle is not waterproof. Water damage will void the warranty.
Storage - Switch off the electric unicycle and disconnect the charger for storage. Ensure that the baery
is approximately 50-60% charged. Check the baery charge level at least once every two months. If it
has dropped, recharge the baery unl it is about 50-60% charged. Store the electric unicycle in a dry
room at a temperature of about 15-25°C.
WARNING! As with any mechanical component, the electric unicycle is subject to stress and wear
during use. Different materials and components age and wear differently. If the expected service life of a
component is exceeded, it may break unexpectedly, causing injury to the user. Cracks, scratches and
discolouraon indicate that a part under high stress has exceeded its service life and should be replaced.
Such latent defects are checked during regular maintenance. At the same me, the user must also watch
for such defects and service the wheel if necessary.

This equipment is not intended for acrobac use.
This equipment is not intended for commercial or rental use.
Always obey traffic laws and local requirements when riding a an electric unicycle.
WARNING! Failure to follow these instrucons may result in serious injury and/or void warranty!
Be familiar with and take into account the overload and other protecon funcons and warnings programmed into the
bike's soware:
- Speed and acceleraon limit according to rider weight, baery capacity and charge.
- Automac switch-off if the unicycle's side inclinaon exceeds 45 degrees.
- Overheang protecon. Control system max 85° and power system max 100°.
- Power short circuit protecon.
- Baery over-voltage or undervoltage protecon. Alarm at 78V, lt back at 75.6V.
DO NOT rely solely on the above wheel protecon measures - you are primarily responsible for your own safety. When the
baery charge has dropped to 60%, avoid sudden acceleraons and avoid riding at the maximum speed allowed by the
wheel at that moment - the performance and safety of an electric unicycle is directly related to the baery charge level,
which will decrease significantly as the baery is discharged
