WARNING
-
RISK OF DEATH OR SERIOUS INJURY
-
Whenever you ride a board, you risk death or serious injury from loss of control, collision, and falls. To ride safely, you must read and follow the instructions and warnings in the manual.
-
Always wear a helmet when riding. Avoid water, wet surfaces, slippery / uneven surfaces, steep hills, traffic, cracks, tracks, gravel, rocks, or any obstacles that could cause a loss of traction and cause a fall. Avoid night riding, areas with poor visibility, and confined spaces.
-
WARNING: Do not ride diagonally on hills or on an incline of more than 10 degress. Do not ride at speed which you would not safely control the board. In case of wireless interference or battery error, you may need to rely on skating techniques like foot braking or sliding to stop.
-
WARNING: AVOID WATER!
Your board is not completely waterproof, you can easily go through the puddles but don’t soak the board in the water. Water damage is not covered under the warranty. -
WARNING: PINCH POINTS!
Keep fingers, hair, and clothing away from belts, motors, wheels, and all moving parts. -
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRONIC SHOCK!
Do not open or tamper with electronics housing, which also voids the warranty.
