INTRODUCTION

RAZOR ECOSMART CARGO ADULT ELECTRIC UTILITY SCOOTER

THE RAZOR ECOSMART CARGO IS FOR ADULT USERS AND SHOULD ONLY BE RIDDEN CAREFULLY AND RESPONSIBLY BY APPROPRIATELY MATURE AND RESPONSIBLE RIDERS AND PASSENGERS EXERCISING CAUTION AND RESPECTING APPLICABLE LAWS.

The Razor EcoSmart Metro scooter has been part of Razor’s fifteen years of experience as a leader in motorized scooter technology. Our original EcoSmart is now refreshed with many improvements, but this edition retains Razor’s original chain-driven configuration.

This product is not a toy for young riders! Razor emphasizes, therefore, the importance of riders to understand the risks associated with using literally any wheeled product around vehicle or pedestrian traffic and the specific risks of riding an electric scooter. Bluntly put, you could get hurt and your actions could cause injury to others. You must be cautious, alert and take reasonable precautions to minimize such risks of falls, impacts or other problems.

The user must be, and is, responsible for determining whether local laws permit use of the EcoSmart Cargo in varying circumstances (there is no “uniform Federal law” in existence to establish universal riding conditions). The rider must be, and is, responsible for acting maturely, carefully, and with respect for local rules of the road when riding, and the rider must be, and is, responsible for assessing and minimizing effects of potentially adverse riding conditions including darkness or impaired visibility, fog, rain, snow, hail, ice or electrical storms, which increase dangers inherent in operating any scooter. The rider must be, and is, responsible for adjusting riding behavior and braking distance to suit the weather and traffic conditions, and also to recognize that riding in low visibility conditions decreases your ability to see and be seen, especially on public streets and around vehicles or pedestrians. The Razor EcoSmart Cargo head- and taillights may reduce such risks, and riders also are encouraged to seek to enhance their visibility/conspicuity through use of higher visibility garments, lights or other reflective materials when riding in reduced visibility circumstances. Razor absolutely recommends that any rider wear a proper helmet to minimize potential head injuries.

Use of the EcoSmart Cargo scooter is recommended for mature riders – using age 18+ (the generally recognized age of “legal consent”) as a guide. Riders of the EcoSmart Cargo certainly must respect and adhere to all locally applicable laws and rules applicable to the use of such products. And if you’re going to ride near cars, be legal and be safe!

SAFETY WARNINGS

WARNING: Riding an EcoSmart Cargo does present potential risks and caution is required. Certain conditions may cause the equipment to fail without fault of the manufacturer. Like any riding product, an EcoSmart Cargo has inherent hazards associated with its use (for example, falling off or riding it into a hazardous situation). Like any riding product, EcoSmart Cargo can and is intended to move and it is therefore, of course, possible to lose control or otherwise get into dangerous situations. Riders must recognize that if such things occur, a rider can be seriously injured or die even when using safety equipment and other precautions. RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.

This manual contains important safety information. It is your responsibility to review this information and make sure that all riders understand all warnings, cautions, instructions and safety topics and assure that young riders are able to safely and responsibly use this product. Razor recommends that you periodically review and reinforce the information in this manual with younger riders, and that you inspect and maintain your teen’s scooter to ensure their safety.

This manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the consequences of failing to maintain, inspect or properly use your EcoSmart Cargo electric scooter. Because any incident can result in serious injury or even death, we do not repeat the warning of possible serious injury or death each time such a possibility is mentioned.

WARNING: Always check and obey any local laws or regulations which may affect the locations where the EcoSmart Cargo may be used. Keeping away from cars and motor vehicle traffic provides the highest protection against risk of traffic-related injuries, of course. For mature riders seeking to operate this product as legally permitted for commuting applications, the increased risks presented by traffic certainly emphasizes that the need for caution, personal responsibility and compliance with local laws is imperative and is the rider’s responsibility. Only use where allowed and with caution.

WARNING: PARENTAL AND ADULT RESPONSIBILITY AND SUPERVISION IS NECESSARY TO ASSURE USE BY MATURE RIDERS: Because products, like EcoSmart Cargo, can and do present potential hazards plainly associated with their use, it is well recognized THE NEED FOR EXERCISE OF PARENTAL RESPONSIBILITY IN SELECTING RIDING PRODUCTS APPROPRIATE TO THE AGE OF A CHILD, OR PARENTAL SUPERVISION IN SITUATIONS IN WHICH CHILDREN OF VARIOUS AGES MAY HAVE ACCESS TO THE SAME RIDING PRODUCTS, IS IMPORTANT. Not every product is appropriate for every age or size of child, and different age recommendations are found within this category of product which are intended to reflect the nature of the hazards and the expected mental or physical ability, or both, of a child to cope with the hazards.

WARNING: NOT FOR RIDERS OR PASSENGERS UNDER AGE 18 OR HEAVIER THAN 300 LB TOTAL WEIGHT (136 KG). DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM RIDER PLUS PASSENGER/CARGO WEIGHT LIMIT OF 300 lb (136 kg). Exceeding the weight limit could injure the rider and/or adult passenger and damage the EcoSmart Cargo. Rider or adult passenger weight alone also does not necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit or maintain control of the EcoSmart Cargo. Keep this product away from small children and remember that this product is not a toy and is intended for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely comfortable and competent while operating the product.

Razor recommends that children under the age of 18 not be permitted to use this product. This recommendation is based not just on age or weight or height; it reflects consideration of expected maturity and skills as well as physical size. The recommended rider and adult passenger age of 18 years or older is only an estimate and can be affected by the rider’s and adult passenger’s size, weight, or skills – not every rider or adult passenger 18 years old or older will be suited to the product. Certainly, any rider or adult passenger unable to fit comfortably on the EcoSmart Cargo should not attempt to ride it, but a parent’s decision to allow his or her teen to ride this product should be based on the teen’s maturity, skill, and ability to follow rules. Razor emphasizes that adults are strongly advised not to disregard Razor’s recommendations or permit younger children to ride the EcoSmart Cargo.

Keep this product away from small children and remember that it is not a toy and is intended for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely comfortable and competent while operating.

Persons with any mental or physical conditions that may make them susceptible to injury, impair their physical dexterity or mental capabilities to recognize, understand, and follow safety instructions and to be able to understand the hazards inherent in the use of any ride-on product, should not use or be permitted to use products inappropriate for their abilities. Persons with heart conditions, head, back or neck ailments (or prior surgeries to these areas of the body), or pregnant women, should be cautioned not to operate such products.

DO NOT EXCEED THE MAXIMUM RIDER PLUS PASSENGER/CARGO WEIGHT LIMIT OF 300 lb (136 kg). Rider and adult passenger weight does not necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit or maintain control of the EcoSmart Cargo.

CHECK AND MAINTAIN PRODUCT CONDITIONS

Before use, check to confirm that covers and guards are in place and in serviceable condition. Check that the brake is functioning properly, that the tires are inflated properly and have sufficient tread remaining. The product should be maintained and repaired in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications, using only the manufacturer’s authorized replacement parts, and should not be modified from the manufacturer’s original design and configuration.

ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS

Do not activate the throttle unless you are on the EcoSmart Cargo and in a safe, outdoor environment suitable for riding. Once the throttle is activated the EcoSmart Cargo will move forward.

The normal powered top speed of this product will be approximately 19.9 mph (32 km/h), which can be affected by conditions, such as rider plus passenger/cargo weight, inclines and battery charge level. Avoid excessive speeds that can be associated with downhill rides.

Be careful and know your limitations. Risk of injury increases as the degree of riding difficulty increases. The rider and passenger assume all risk associated with aggressive riding activities.

Maintain a hold on the handlebars at all times. Do not touch the brake or motor on your scooter when in use or immediately after riding, as these parts can become very hot.

RAZOR RECOMMENDS ADULT PASSENGERS ONLY: This scooter product is not as large or as stable as things like cars or motorcycles. It is important that passengers do not interfere with balance or with rider control. Razor therefore recommends that passengers be mature and capable adults who understand the importance of these facts and can moderate their riding practices to avoid and prevent interference with safe operation of the EcoSmart Cargo scooter.

Ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Be careful to avoid pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children or animals who may enter your path, and respect the rights and property of others.

The EcoSmart Cargo is intended for use on flat, dry surfaces, such as pavement or level ground, without loose debris, such as sand, leaves, rocks or gravel. Wet, slick, bumpy, uneven or rough surfaces may impair traction and contribute to possible accidents. Do not ride your product in mud, ice, puddles or water. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Avoid sharp bumps, drainage grates, and sudden surface changes.

Do not attempt or do stunts or tricks. The EcoSmart Cargo is not made to withstand abuse from misuse, such as jumping, curb grinding or any other type of stunts. Racing, stunt riding, or other maneuvers also enhance risk of loss of control, or may cause uncontrolled rider actions or reactions.

Riding at night or when visibility is limited increases risks of accident or injury. Should the EcoSmart Cargo scooter be ridden in such conditions, use of lights and additional measures to increase rider visibility and scooter conspicuity are advised.

Never use near steps or swimming pools.

Do not allow hands, feet, hair, body parts, clothing, or similar articles to come in contact with moving parts or wheels while the motor is engaged.

Do not touch electric motor or brake when in use or immediately after riding.

Never use headphones or a cell phone to talk or text when riding.

Never ride your product while under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Never hitch a ride with a vehicle.

The EcoSmart Cargo electric scooter can operate more quietly than other motorized products may operate. Use care when in the vicinity of pedestrians or others who may have difficulty hearing your approach. Use handbell (not included) to sound warnings when appropriate.

Never risk damaging surfaces such as carpet or flooring by use of an EcoSmart Cargo electric scooter indoors.

Refer to the section on safety reminders for additional warnings.

PROPER RIDING ATTIRE
Always wear proper protective equipment, such as an approved safety helmet (with chin strap securely buckled), elbow pads, and kneepads. A helmet may be legally required by local law or regulation in your area. A long-sleeved shirt, and long pants are recommended. Always wear athletic shoes (lace up shoes with rubber soles), never ride barefooted or in sandals, and keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of the wheels, motor and drive system.

USING THE CHARGER
The charger supplied with the product should be regularly examined for damage to the cord, plug, enclosure and other parts. In the event of such damage, the product must not be charged until the charger has been repaired or replaced.

Use only with the recommended charger.

Use caution when charging.

The charger is not a toy. Charger should be operated by an adult.

Do not operate charger near flammable materials.

Make sure power switch is in the “off” position, unplug charger and disconnect from product when not in use.

Always disconnect from the charger prior to wiping down and cleaning your product with damp cloth.

FAILURE TO USE COMMON SENSE AND HEED THE ABOVE WARNINGS FURTHER INCREASES RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND WITH APPROPRIATE AND SERIOUS ATTENTION TO SAFE OPERATION. USE CAUTION.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Remove contents from box. Remove the separators that protect the components from damage during shipping. Inspect the contents of the box for scratches in the paint, dents, or kinked cables that may have occurred during shipping. Because the electric scooter was partially assembled and packed at the factory, there should not be any problems, even if the box has a few scars or dents.

MAKE SURE POWER BUTTON IS TURNED “OFF” BEFORE CONDUCTING ANY ASSEMBLY OR MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES.

Estimated Assembly and Set-Up Time

Razor recommends assembly by an adult with experience in bicycle mechanics. Allow up to 30 minutes for assembly, not including initial charge time. Allow up to 6 hours for charge (for charging information).

Inflating the Tires

The tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably may lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing and your purchase. Always inflate tires to the correct PSI before first time use.

Lower air pressure can result in a shorter ride time.

Periodically check tires. Reinflate when needed.

Inflating the Tires

Remove the valve cap and using a bicycle style tire pump equipped for a Schrader-type valve, inflate the tires to the correct PSI indicated on the sidewall of the tire. Replace the valve cap.

WARNING: Do not use the electric scooter for the first time until you have inflated the tires to the correct PSI. Failure to do so may damage your electric scooter and void your warranty.

WARNING: Do not overinflate, as this could damage the tires or wheels.

Note: The pressure air supplies found at gasoline stations are designed to inflate high-volume automobile tires. If you decide to use such an air supply to inflate your electric scooter tires, first make sure the pressure gauge is working, then use very short bursts to inflate to the correct PSI. If you inadvertently over inflate the tires, release the excess pressure immediately

    Note: When the brake is applied the tail/brake light will flash. The brake light is always functional and independent of the other lights being activated.
    How to Stop

Changing the Speed Level

Speed levels are controlled on the display. The display is activated when the power on the EcoSmart Cargo is in the “ON” position. Practice in an open area free from obstacles until you are familiar with changing speed levels. Riders can toggle speed levels up or down while the EcoSmart Cargo is in motion. Higher speed levels will result in higher speeds and lower speed levels will result in lower speeds. There are five (5) speed levels. The EcoSmart Cargo is set on speed level 0 (no speed) setting at the factory.

  1. Each bar at the top of the display represents a speed level. When all the bars are off, EcoSmart Cargo is at speed level 0.

  2. Press the top area of the display (as shown) to increase speed levels in increments of one (1). Each time you press the top area of the display you will move to the next higher speed level until you reach the maximum speed level (5).

  3. Press the bottom area of the display (as shown) to decrease speed levels in increments of one (1). Each time you press the bottom area of the display you will move to the next lower speed level until you reach the lowest speed level (0).

Note: Once the electric scooter is powered OFF, speed levels are disabled. Speed level will reset to level 0 each time you power ON your electric scooter.

WARNING: The brake is capable of skidding the rear tire and throwing an unsuspecting rider. Practice in an open area free from obstacles until you are familiar with the brake function. Avoid skidding to a stop as this can cause you to lose control and/or damage the rear tire.

Note: As an additional safety feature, the scooter is designed to cut power to the motor when the hand brake is applied.
