Press the quick-release lever in the direction of the arrows, see Figure C and pull the handlebar until it locks into one of the two holes at the desired height.
Then lock the quick-release in place as shown in Figure C.
If the two handlebar grips are still folded in, you can now fold them up, Figure E.

FOLDING

Press the quick-release button in the direction of the arrow, see Figure A
Unlock the handlebar stem in Figure B and press it down in Figure C.
To initiate the folding process, the handlebars must be moved forward at the same time as pressing the folding lever 1 , this will cause the lock to release, see Figure D. ****

RIDING OPERATION

Preparation

ﬁnd suitable terrain
fold up the scooter according to the instructions (p.11)
adjust the handlebars according to your height

Drive off

Press the POWER button to switch on the scooter
place one foot on the running board and leave the other on the ground.
Press the right thumb throttle slowly and carefully downwards – the scooter immediately moves slowly forward. Remove the second foot from the ﬂoor and place this foot on the running board as well. The more the thumb throttle grip is pressed, the more the scooter accelerates and the faster the ride becomes.

Brakes

under normal conditions the right thumb brake lever is pressed down and the electromagnetic brake is activated and the scooter immediately slows down and the ﬂow of
energy to the motor is interrupted The more the brake lever is pressed down the more the scooter brakes. The electromagnetic brake also activates the KERS system (kinetic energy recovery system), which feeds the braking energy back into the battery in the same way as on Formula 1 cars.
the SXT LightGT also has a conventional mechanical foot brake at the rear. The mechanical brake slows down the scooter on the rear axle. No matter what situation you are in, if the ﬁrst system fails, you will still have the mechanical foot brake on the rear axle.

Kick start function
This function is for your safety. If the scooter is to be used, you should kick/drive it with one foot to set the scooter in motion and then press the thumb throttle handle ﬁrst and the scooter will start moving with motor power. This protects the motor and prevents the scooter from accidentally setting itself in motion if the throttle stick is pressed inadvertently.
Battery and charging
The SXT Light GT is equipped with a special lithium-polymer battery and a special smart charger. These accessories, which are supplied with each scooter, have their own number. Please do not use chargers of other brands. If the battery or charger is damaged, the warranty will be void.
Battery
If you are getting the electric scooter for the ﬁrst time, please fully charge the battery before using it. The battery can be charged at any time, please ensure that the battery is powered.
Attention: Do not use batteries of other brands, they will not work with the scooter SXT Light
GT.
Please charge the battery every three months when you are no longer using the scooter.
Immersion in water, collisions and other abnormal factors will cause battery damage that is not covered under the warranty.
Charger
The company provides a charger with a charge protection function. When the battery is 100% charged, the charger automatically stops charging. Charging time is no more than 3 hours. Immersion in water, collisions and other abnormal factors will cause damage to the charger that is not covered under the warranty.
Quick Guide to Charging the Electric Scooter

connect the charger plug to the power outlet ﬁrst The LED turns green.
Open the protective rubber cover of the charging opening, and insert the charger plug into the charging opening. It means that it is charging when the charging indicator lights red, and the charging indicator lights green when the battery is fully charged.

CHARGING

CHARGING THE BATTERY

First, plug the power cable into the socket and then the cable into the socket of the scooter.
When the input and output of the charger are connected to the scooter, the red indicator lights up. The battery is full when the indicator light changes from red to green. At this time Remove the charger and replace the protective cover.
Standard charging time:
The scooter is charged for a speciﬁ ed period of time, approx. 3-5 hours, at ambient temperature between -10°C and 50°C for the associated charger.

LOADING INSTRUCTIONS

The safety protection for the charging connection should be reattached after the scooter has been charged.
The scooter should not be kept within reach of children during charging.
Under no circumstances should a charger other than the one supplied to be used to charge the scooter. In addition, the supplied charger can be used exclusively for this scooter.
Do not disassemble a charger that is not working. Please contact your dealer.

Charging instructions

The battery should not be stored near ﬁ re or corrosive environments, as it is easily ﬂ ammable.
Do not smear or remove the label on the battery.
The battery compartment should not be opened to avoid damage to parts inside the battery.

If the battery is not charging, please contact the dealer.
To keep the battery in good condition, it should be charged at regular intervals, every 20-30 days.
Warning:
Do not connect the charger to the scooter when the charger cable or charging connector is wet.
Note:
Typically, a fully charged battery in standby mode should last for 120-180 days and a lightly charged battery for 30-60 days. Please remember to charge the battery after each use. If the battery is completely discharged, it may damage the battery.

CHARGING INFORMATION FOR LITHIUM BATTERIES

Lithium batteries should never be deeply discharged, as this will irreparably damage the lithium cells. All lithium batteries should (if possible) always be stored with a medium charge. If a battery is not used for a longer period of time, please do not fully charge it beforehand – this places the lithium cells under unnecessary “stress” which can lead to a shortened service life in the long term. If you have the choice when using the battery, we recommend not to charge it completely, but always to use it in the medium-voltage range. Of course, the battery can be fully charged to drive long distances, for example – it is only technically best for a lithium battery not to do so in order to really get the maximum performance and life out of the battery. The lifetime of lithium batteries is given in charge cycles. Don’t think you are “wasting” many charging cycles by recharging the lithium battery more often even though it hasn’t “run out” – this is completely wrong! The indicated service life in charging cycles refers to so-called full cycles. This means that if you discharge your battery by 50% and then fully charge it again, this corresponds to a ½ charging cycle. Charge twice, corresponding to one full cycle. We recommend recharging a lithium battery with 25% residual charge up to approx. 75% state of charge.
For long distances the battery can of course also be fully charged – see above. During hibernation or long storage of vehicles with lithium batteries, it is absolutely necessary to recharge them at least once a month up to approx. 60%. For lithium batteries, only use chargers approved and recommended by the manufacturer. Charging with too high a charging current to be able to charge faster can irreparably damage the lithium cells and, in the worst case, lead to ﬁre.

MAINTENANCE

Lubricating
Please add a small amount of grease or lubricants to handle folded position every six months.
Please check the scooter every three months if the screws are loose.
Battery
The lithium polymer batteries provided by our company can be recharged at least 500 times, and the normal use can reach more than 1,000 times.
