Making Moves
Starting Notes
WHEN IT COMES TO RIDING, THERE IS NO TECHNICAL FRONT OR BACK OF THE
HOVERBOARD. THE RIDER CAN STEP ON FROM EITHER SIDE.
THE DIRECTIONS GIVEN IN THIS MANUAL-RIGHT, LEFT, FRONT/FORWARD, AND REAR/BACK-
ARE ORIENTED AS THE RIDER WOULD SEE THEM WHEN STANDING ON THE HOVERBOARD. THE
“RIGHT SIDE” OF THE HOVERBOARD, FOR EXAMPLE, IS THE SIDE WHERE THE RIDER’S
RIGHT FOOT WILL BE.
Mounting the Hoverboard
IMPORTANT: NEVER TRY TO MOUNT A HOVERBOARD THAT IS POWERED OFF. THE INTERNAL BALANCE MECHANISMS ONLY ACTIVATE WHEN THE HOVERBOARD IS POWERED ON.
TO MOUNT THE HOVERBOARD:
- POWER ON YOUR HOVERBOARD.
- POSITION IT ON THE GROUND IN FRONT OF YOU AND PLACE ONE FOOT IN THE CENTER OF THE FOOTPAD IN FRONT OF IT.
- LIFT YOUR OTHER FOOT ONTO THE OTHER FOOTPAD, AND QUICKLY SHIFT YOUR WEIGHT TO THE CENTER OF YOUR BODY.
- STAND STRAIGHT, KEEPING A SLIGHT BEND IN THE KNEES.
Riding the Hoverboard
-
TO MOVE FORWARD: APPLY EQUAL PRESSURE
TO THE FRONT OF EACH FOOTPAD WITH YOUR TOES. -
TO MOVE BACKWARDS: APPLY EQUAL PRESSURE TO THE BACK OF EACH FOOTPAD WITH YOUR HEELS.
IMPORTANT : WHEN THE HOVERBOARD IS TRAVELING NEAR OR AT MAX SPEED, IT WILL START BEEPING CONTINUOUSLY AS A WARNING TO SLOW DOWN.
Making Turns
THE MORE PRESSURE YOU APPLY TO A FOOTPAD, THE FASTER THE WHEEL ON THAT SIDE
WILL ROTATE.
TO TURN RIGHT: APPLY EXTRA PRESSURE TO THE FRONT OF THE LEFT FOOTPAD WITH
THE TOES ON YOUR LEFT FOOT.
TO TURN LEFT : APPLY EXTRA PRESSURE TO THE FRONT OF THE RIGHT FOOTPAD WITH YOUR RIGHT FOOT.
Slowing Down & Stopping
TO SLOW DOWN WHILE RIDING FORWARDS, EASE UP ON THE PRESSURE BEING APPLIED TO
THE FRONT OF THE FOOTPADS.
BRING YOUR BODY WEIGHT OVER THE CENTER OF EACH FOOTPAD TO COME TO A STOP.
Dismounting the Hoverboard
ONCE THE BOARD HAS COME TO A STOP, DISMOUNT IT BY STEPPING OFF BEHIND IT ONE
FOOT AT A TIME.
IMPORTANT : FOR SAFETY, NEVER DISMOUNT THE HOVERBOARD BY STEPPING OFF IN
FRONT OF IT.
Maximizing Speed & Run Time
THE MAXIMUM RUN TIME PER BATTERY CHARGE IS UP TO 40 MINUTES* AND THE MAXIMUM ACHIEVABLE SPEED IS 10 MPH. HOWEVER, MANY FACTORS WILL AFFECT HOW LONG YOU CAN GO PER CHARGE AND HOW FAST YOU CAN RIDE.
- RIDING SURFACE: A SMOOTH, FLAT SURFACE WILL INCREASE SPEED AND RUN TIME.
- WEIGHT: MORE WEIGHT COULD RESULT IN LESS DISTANCE AND SLOWER SPEEDS.
- TEMPERATURE: RIDE, CHARGE, AND STORE THE PLASMA X ABOVE 50°F.
- RIDING STYLE: FREQUENT STARTING AND STOPPING WILL REDUCE RUN TIME.
Using the Bluetooth® Speaker
THE PLASMA X COMES EQUIPPED WITH A BLUETOOTH® SPEAKER.
STREAMING MUSIC THROUGH YOUR PLASMA X
YOU CAN CONNECT YOUR HANDHELD DEVICE TO THE PLASMA X’S BUILT-IN BLUETOOTH® SPEAKER TO STREAM MUSIC DURING YOUR RIDE. ONCE THE MUSIC STARTS PLAYING, THE LIGHTS ON YOUR PLASMA X WILL AUTOMATICALLY SYNC WITH THE MUSIC AND FLASH TO ITS BEAT.
