In addition, examine whether the Mecha has been assembled properly and whether the safety straps ARE installed in their proper places. In the event of any abnormalities, shut down the Mecha immediately and contact after-sales service promptly for guidance.
4. Do not use the Mecha Kit with products that are not provided or recommended by the Segway-Ninebot app or that violate the safety instructions stated in the accompanying documentation provided by Segway or Ninebot.
5. Prevent young children from accidentally swallowing any removable part that may be contained in the product.
6. Be familiar with the operation of the Mecha before your drive. The more you practice, the better you would use the product.
7. Before each drive, check the Mecha carefully to ensure that no part (including the tires) shows any signs of looseness or damage. Make sure that the Mecha is in proper running condition before your drive. If there is any sign indicating that your Mecha is not running properly, please stop your drive immediately.
8. Do not drive the Mecha if it is damaged, emits odors or smoke, becomes overheated, or has a component that is not performing properly.
9. Purchase the specified self-balancing vehicle model of Segway or Ninebot, and refer to the accompanying instruction manual for the tire inflation pressure. Check the performance of your tires before each drive, in order to prevent wear and tear on the tires or having the vehicle’s poor condition impacts your drive, which may lead to an accident.
10. Only use the original parts of the Mecha Kit and ensure the Mecha Kit is compatible with the self-balancing vehicle models specified by the Ninebot. Otherwise, you may not be able to use it properly, and there will be increased safety risks. If any problem occurs, please feel free to contact the after-sales service center, which is the most secure option for you to receive service.

Where to Drive:

1. Do not immerse the battery and the Mecha in water, expose it to rain or drive it in the rain. It is strictly prohibited to clean the body of the Mecha with a high-pressure water jet in order to prevent the battery compartment, circuit chip, and other parts from getting wet.

2. Never drive the Mecha during inclement weather, including rain and snow. When not in use, the Mecha should be placed indoors and protected from becoming wet due to severe weather. This should be done to prevent functional damage, fire or even an explosion due to wet batteries. Damages and losses due to water entering the Mecha are not covered by the warranty and compensation scope of Ninebot by Segway.

3. Do not drive the Mecha at dawn or dusk, at night or in the dark. These circumstances increase the risk of possible accidents. Riding at night is significantly more dangerous than that in the day. It is difficult for riders to be visible to motorists and pedestrians. If you insist on choosing to drive the Mecha at dawn, dusk, or night, be prepared to accept a significant increase in risk.

4. Mecha is an off-road product. Never on road including but not limited to the highway, public road, at any time. Using and/or riding Mecha may be subject to further restriction and/or limitation by local law.

5. Drive the Mecha on roads with good conditions and do not drive it on rough roads. Pay attention to the change in terrain,
   e. g., from flat grounds to grasslands.

6. Refrain from taking risks and be aware of potential hazards and difficult terrains. Never drive on muddy or wet roads. Ensure your safety and do not risk riding on steep slopes, uneven surfaces, or other kinds of terrain that you have not encountered before.

7. The Mecha is intended for flat, hard surfaces only, especially enclosed roads (e.g., roads in neighborhoods, parks, and special sites). Do not pass through places with obstacles and protrusions and keep vigilant. Slow down when in unfamiliar environments. You shall reduce speed when it is necessary, especially when you need to go backward or turn around.

How to Drive:

1. Wear protective equipment at all times when you drive the Mecha. Protective equipment includes, but is not limited to, a full-face motorcycle helmet with chin strap, goggles, boots, gloves, long riding pants with hip, and knee pads as well as a long-sleeve riding suit with elbow, chest, and shoulder pads.
2. Do not wear high heels or loose clothes when riding the Mecha. Never leave the zipper of an article of clothing unfastened and tie up long hair and bangs or loose hair that may affect your field of vision. This is to prevent your clothes or hair from becoming caught in the tires and eliminate possible accidents caused by your insufficient field of vision.
3. Make yourself and others visible during riding. Do not touch the tires with your hands or feet during your drive.
4. Do not answer your phone, wear headphones or earbuds, take photos or videos, or do any activities that may distract you during riding. Ensure that you can pay attention to the environment around you.
5. Keep vigilant when riding. Drive at an appropriate speed that is within your capabilities. Do not perform stunts or accelerate or decelerate suddenly.
6. Never treat the Mecha as a medical device or use it as a medical assistance tool. You must be physically capable of riding the Mecha without the help of others.
7. During your drive, please always be ready for the following conditions: children or pets are playing on the roadside; there are potholes, sewer partitions, expansion joints, obstacles, and other issues that may distract you. Whenever possible, pay attention to surroundings to avoid injuries and/or accidents.
8. It is prohibited to use the Mecha as a cargo carrier.
9. Do not throw or drop the Mecha or place it in locations exposed to an open flame.
10. It is prohibited to engage in any unauthorized modification of the Mecha, which may endanger your drive, yourself, other persons and/or property.

The recommended age range for riding the Mecha is above 14 years old. Users under 14 years of age are strictly prohibited to drive the Mecha. Parents or guardians are responsible for the safety of the users who are minors, and guardians must accompany minors when they drive the Mecha.
2. The Mecha is similar to other means of a vehicle, so you need to always stay alert during your drive. Riding while fatigued or intoxicated is prohibited. You should not drive the Mecha when you are ill or in a bad mood. Those experiencing difficulties in terms of vision, hearing, use of limbs, speech, or other movements, or with serious heart trouble, hypertension, vertigo, and other disorders that are not suitable for exercise, or taking drugs and alcohol, are strictly prohibited from riding the Mecha.
