Riding Safety

1. The Ninebot ZlO is a recreational transporter. Before mastering riding skills, you need to practice. Neither Nine bot Inc. (means Ninebot(Beijing) Tech Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries and affiliates) nor Segway Inc. is responsible for any injuries or damage caused by a rider’s inexperience or failure to follow the instructions in this document.

2. Please understand that you can reduce the risk by following all the instructions and warnings in this manual, but you cannot eliminate all the risks. Remember that whenever you ride the Nine bot ZlO you risk injury from loss of control, collisions, and falls. When entering into public spaces always comply with the local laws and regulations. As with other vehicles, faster speeds require longer braking distance. Sudden braking on low traction surfaces could lead to wheel slip, or falls. Be cautious and always keep a safe distance between you and other people or vehicles when riding. Be alert and slow down when entering unfamiliar areas.

3. Always wear a helmet when riding. Use an approved bicycle or skateboard helmet that fits properly with the chin strap in place, and provides protection for the back of your head.

4. Do not attempt your first ride in any area where you might encounter children, pedestrians, pets, vehicles, bicycles, or other obstacles and potential hazards.

5. Respect pedestrians by always yielding the right of way. When approaching a pedestrian from the front, stay to the right and slow down. Avoid startling pedestrians. When approaching from behind, announce yourself and slow down to walking speed when passing. Pass on the left whenever possible. Please obey local traffic laws and regulations.

6. In places without laws comply with the safety guidelines outlined in this manual. Neither Ninebot Inc. nor Segway Inc. is responsible for any property damage, personal injury/death, accidents, or legal disputes caused by violations of the safety instructions.

7. Do not allow anyone to ride your Ninebot ZlO on his/her own unless they have carefully read this manual and followed the New Rider Tutorial in the App. The safety of new riders is your responsibility. Assist new riders until they are comfortable with the basic operation of the Ninebot ZlO. Make sure each new rider wears a helmet and other protective gear.

8. Before each ride check for loose fasteners and damaged components. If the Ninebot ZlO makes abnormal sounds or signals an alarm, immediately stop riding. Diagnose your Ninebot ZlO via the Segway-Ninebot App and call your dealer/distributor for service.

9. Be alert! Scan both far ahead and in front of your Ninebot ZlO -your eyes are your best tool for safely avoiding obstacles and low traction surfaces (including, but not limited to, wet ground, loose sand,
   loose gravel, and ice).

10. To reduce risk of injury, you must read and follow all “CAUTION” and “WARNING” notices in this
    document. Do not ride at an unsafe speed. Under no circumstance should you ride on roads with motor vehicles. The manufacturer recommends riders be 16+ years old.

Daily Maintenance

Cleaning and Storage
Use a soft. wet cloth to wipe the mainframe clean. Hard to remove dirt can be scrubbed with a toothbrush and toothpaste, then cleaned with a soft, wet cloth.
NOTE
Do not wash your Ninebot ZlO with alcohol, gasoline, acetone, or other corrosive/volatile solvents.
These substances may damage the appearance and internal structure of your Ninebot ZlO. Do not wash your Ninebot ZlO with a power washer or hose.
WARNING
Make sure the Ninebot ZlO is powered OFF, the charging cable is unplugged, and the rubber cap on the charge port is tightly sealed before cleaning; otherwise you may damage the electronic components. Store your Ninebot ZlO in a cool, dry place. Do not store it outdoors for extended periods of time. Exposure to sunlight and extreme temperature (both hot and cold) will accelerate the aging process of the plastic components and may reduce battery life.
Battery Pack Maintenance
Do not store or charge the battery at temperatures outside the stated limits (see Specifications).
Do not puncture the battery. Refer to your local laws and regulations regarding battery recycling and/or disposal. A well maintained battery can perform well even after many miles of riding. Charge the battery after each ride and avoid draining the battery completely. When used at room temperature (70°F [22° CJ) the battery range and performance is at its best; whereas using it at temperatures below 32°F (0° C) can decrease range and performance. Typically, at -4°F (-20° C) range can be half that of the same battery at 70°F (22° C). Battery range will recover when temperature rises. More details are available in the App.
NOTE
Typically, a fully charged battery should retain charge for 120-180 days. A low-power battery should retain charge for 30-60 days. Remember to charge the battery after each use. Completely draining the battery may cause permanent damage to the battery. Electronics inside the battery record the charge- discharge condition of the battery; damage caused by over-charging or under- charging will not be covered by the Limited Warranty.
WARNING
Do not attempt to disassemble the battery. Risk of fire. No user serviceable parts.
WARNING
Do not ride when the ambient temperature is outside the machine operation temperature (see Specifications) because low/high temperature will limit the maximum power/torque. Doing so could cause personal injury or property damage due to slips or falls.
