Frequently Asked Questi ns

1. Fully charged, what is the range of the electric vehicle?
A. The Range is affected by the weight f rider, the type f terrain and the speed in
which the vehicle is driven. A range f 60 miles at full thr ttle and 90 miles at cruising
speed f 25mph has been rec rded n a single charge, but is n t guaranteed.
B. See the specificati n sheet f r the full range and speed f the m dels.
2. Is riding an electric vehicle a comfortable riding experience?
A. Riding an electric vehicle is indescribably m re c mf rtable than riding a gas line
m t r vehicle. The silence and the sm thness f a direct drive electric-m t r-p wered
vehicle are inc mparable.
B. Quick accelerating-speed fr m 0 t 50mph (80km/H) takes nly 10 sec nds.
3. Do you have to warm-up the electric vehicle before riding it?
There is abs lutely n warm-up time needed. Just turn the key and y u are ready t
g . It cann t be any easier.
4. What about maintenance?
This m t r bike is designed f r minimum maintenance. C nsidering the fact that this
vehicle has n c mbusti n engine, n transmissi n, n belts, n chains, n gas line, n
igniti n plugs, n carburet r, etc. M dular designed c mp nents are practically
maintenance free. The unique design f the direct drive system and the t tal absence f
belts r chains make this vehicle much easier t maintain than ther electric sc ters.
Practically any sc ter dealer can d m st f the maintenance that may be required.
The brushless m t r is precise that s there is never a need t change the brushes.
5. What about parts, is it a problem getting parts for the scooter?
I. ALL parts can be purchased directly fr m the supplier including batteries, tires,
bulbs, seats etc.
6. Can the electric scooter be cleaned or washed with water without any
concern?
A. As with any electric vehicle, care sh uld always be taken when washing.
NEVER USE A HIGH PRESSURE WASHER WHEN CLEANING THE BIKE.
B. One sh uld be careful never t p ur water directly int the charger utlet, the
c ntr ller and the internal battery set when washing r cleaning.
7. Do you need to wear a helmet to ride the electric vehicle?
F r safety reas ns we always advise the use f a helmet. H wever, l cal law dictates
whether r n t riding vehicle law bligates a helmet.
8. Is it easy to recharge the batteries?

9. How can I know the battery condition and energy level?
The display panel includes a battery gauge n the right, which clearly indicates the
p wer level f the batteries in y ur vehicle.
I. FULL: upper gauge cl se t letter “H”.
II. 75% FULL: sec nd wide line.
III. 50% LEFT: middle gauge.(At this level, charging is highly rec mmended.)
IV. 10% LEFT: cl se t red bar gauge, sc ter cann t m ve. (Immediate charging is
necessary).
10. Can a rider get burned while riding the electric vehicle?
Riders will n t get burned fr m riding the electric vehicle. The vehicle d es n t have
an exhaust pipe like in gas line sc ters. N thing heats up.
11. Why is this product the best available in the world today?
It has a Brushless m t r. We emphasize ”brushless” n t just because this is the
latest techn l gy, but because these permanent magnet m t rs are supremely reliable!
These m re expensive m t rs pr duce high t rque at l w speeds, keeping an
acceptable balance f t rque and energy acr ss the wh le speed range. In additi n,
electric sc ters d n t waste energy at an idle state. Often ther types f electric
vehicles n the market t day will still use sealed brush-type m t rs that are dependant
up n brush life that build up brush dust (residue) and susceptible t wear ver time
which may affect maximum speed and electrical n ise r bec me pr blematic in ther
ways. Because these brush-type m t rs are sealed, it ften takes an expensive m t r
replacement t get them w rking again.
12. What is the Manufacturer Warranty?
G t www.x-tremesc ters.c m/supp rt f r warranty inf rmati n n this m del.
This warranty is subject t the cust mer/rider/ wner taking due care and maintenance f
the vehicle at all times. Eventual transp rt expenses are at charge f the cust mer.
13. How to store in winter?
Take the f ll wing precauti n t prevent st rage damage r pr blems when taking
the vehicle ut n the r ad again in the spring:
1). The vehicle sh uld be cleaned th r ughly (n t with high-pressure cleaning
equipment!). Then treat all metal parts with c rr si n-pr tecti n agent. Use a suitable
cleaning agent n all painted and unpainted trim parts and n rubber.
2). The batteries sh uld be st red where they are pr tected against fr st. Ensure
battery v ltage is checked m nthly and recharged if necessary while st red.
3). Lubricate all cables and the j ints f all levers.
