INTRODUCTION: RAZOR ECOSMART METRO ELECTRIC SCOOTER
THE RAZOR ECOSMART METRO IS FOR USERS AGES 16+ AND SHOULD ONLY BE RIDDEN
CAREFULLY
AND RESPONSIBLY BY APPROPRIATELY MATURE AND RESPONSIBLE RIDERS EXERCISING
CAUTION AND RESPECTING APPLICABLE LAWS.
The Razor EcoSmart Metro scooter has been part of Razor’s fifteen years of experience as a leader inmotorized scooter technology. Our original EcoSmart is now refreshed with many improvements, but this edition retains Razor’s original chain-driven, lead-acid battery powered 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 Metro 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. Riders also are encouraged to seek to enhance their visibility / conspicuity through use of higher visibility garments, lights (not included) 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 Metro scooter is recommended for mature riders – using age 16+ as a guide. Riders of the EcoSmart Metro 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 Metro 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 Metro has inherent
hazards associated with its use (for example, falling off or riding it into a
hazardous situation). Like any riding product, EcoSmart
Metro 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 insure their safety.
This manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the consequences of failing to maintain, inspect or properly use your EcoSmart Metro 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
Metro 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 Metro, 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 UNDER AGE 16 OR HEAVIER THAN 220 LB (100 KG). DO NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 220 lb (100 kg) – including backpacks and other items that might be carried. Exceeding the weight limit could injure the rider and damage the EcoSmart Metro. Rider weight alone also does not necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit or maintain control of the EcoSmart Metro. 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 16 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 age of 16 years or older is only an estimate and can be affected by the rider’s size, weight, or skills – not every rider 16 years old or older will be suited to the product. Certainly, any rider unable to fit comfortably on the EcoSmart Metro 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 Metro.
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 WEIGHT LIMIT OF 220 lb (100 kg). Rider weight does not necessarily mean a person’s size is appropriate to fit or maintain control of the EcoSmart Metro.
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 Metro and in a
safe, outdoor environment suitable for riding.
Once the throttle is activated the EcoSmart Metro will move forward.
The normal powered top speed of this product will be approximately 15.5 mph (25 km/h), which can be affected by conditions, such as rider 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 assumes 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.
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 Metro 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 Metro 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.
Never carry passengers or allow more than one person at a time to ride the
EcoSmart Metro electric scooter.
Riding at night or when visibility is limited increases risks of accident or
injury. Should the EcoSmart Metro scooter be ridden in such conditions, useof
lights (not included) 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 Metro 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
Metro 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.
Do not exceed charging time.
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 SWITCH IS TURNED “OFF” BEFORE CONDUCTING ANY ASSEMBLY OR
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES

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 overinflate the tires, release the excess pressure
immediately.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
*Product(s) should be turned OFF and fully charged prior to doing any Troubleshooting.
NOTE : All troubleshooting steps should be performed by an adult only.
Problem: Possible: Cause Solution
Scooter does not run : Undercharged battery : Charge the battery. A new battery should have been charged for at least 12 hours before using the scooter for the first time and up to 12 hours after each subsequent use. Check all connectors. Make sure the charger connector is tightly plugged into the charging port and that the charger is plugged into the wall.
Scooter does not run: Charger is not working : Make sure the power flow to the wall outlet is on. You may check to see if your charger is working by using a volt meter or ask your local Razor authorized service center to test your charger for you.
Scooter does not run: Loose wires or connectors : Check all wires and connectors to make sure they are tight.
Scooter was running but suddenly stopped : Scooter is overloaded : Power will automatically shut off if the motor is overloaded. An excessive overload, such as too heavy a rider or too steep a hill, could cause the motor to overheat. If the scooter suddenly stops running, wait a few seconds and then push the breaker to reset the circuit. Correct the conditions that caused the breaker to trip and avoid repeatedly tripping the breaker.
Short run time (less than 40 minutes per charge) : Undercharged
battery : Charge the battery. A new battery should have been charged for at
least 12 hours before using the scooter for the first time and up to 12 hours
after each subsequent use.
Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the battery connector is tightly
plugged into the charger connector and that the charger is plugged into the
wall.
Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is on.
Short run time (less than 40 minutes per charge) : Battery is old and will not accept full charge : Even with proper care, a rechargeable battery does not last forever. Average battery life is 1 to 2 years depending on scooter use and conditions. Replace only with a Razor replacement battery.
Short run time (less than 40 minutes per charge): Brake is not adjusted properly : Refer to adjusting the brake instructions on page 9.
Scooter runs sluggishly: Driving conditions are too stressful: Use only on solid, flat, clean and dry surfaces such as pavement or level ground
Scooter runs sluggishly: Tires are not properly inflated: The tires are
inflated when shipped, but they invariably will lose some pressure between the
point of manufacturing and your purchase. Refer to instructions on page 5 of
this manual to
properly inflate tires.
Scooter runs sluggishly: Scooter is overloaded: Make sure you do not overload the scooter by allowing more than one rider at a time, exceeding the 220 lb. maximum weight limit, going up a hill or towing objects behind the scooter. If the scooter is overloaded, the circuit breaker may trip and shut off power to the motor. Correct the riding conditions that caused the overload, wait a few seconds, and then push the breaker to reset the circuit.
Scooter runs sluggishly: Brake rotor is dragging on pads: Use your fingers to twist the caliper adjuster in either direction until rotor is centered between pads.
Scooter runs sluggishly: Brake is not adjusted properly: Refer to adjusting the brake instructions on page 9.
