The techtron® Elite 3500 foldable scooter is capable of a maximum speed of 25km/h, with three pre-configured factory default speed modes. These presets can be changed via the techtron® smart app (see page 12). The app allows the user to set a pre-determined speed for each speed mode. The display can also be configured to show speed in mph or km/h using the techtron® app.

Rider Guidance, Safety, and Specifications

Helmets and clothing
Wearing cycle helmets are recommended when riding an eScooter, but they are not a legal requirement. Always make sure that your cycle helmet conforms to current regulations, is the correct size, and is securely fastened. Wear light-colored or fluorescent clothing so that other road users can see you at night or whenever visibility is poor.
As with any vehicle, the faster the user is traveling, the more braking distance is required. Please respect pedestrians’ right of way when riding the techtron® eScooter.

Riding safely
Please check the eScooter before riding. Check for loose parts and general tire wear and tear. Always start the eScooter by pushing off with your foot first, this reduces the start load on the motor, ensuring a longer battery life. The techtron® eScooter is designed to perform best on smooth dry surfaces, therefore avoid riding on uneven gravel, sand, grass, slick or wet surfaces. Never ride over curbs or jump. The scooter is not designed for this type of riding and any damage caused to the eScooter while riding in this manner will void the warranty. techtron® accepts no liability for any injuries caused to the rider or damage to property that may arise while riding the scooter. Never ride the scooter with more than one person, as this may lead to loss of control. It is the rider’s responsibility to ensure they comply with all local laws and regulations that may apply while riding the scooter.
