Electrical hoverboard accessories

Pedal sensors
The electric hoverboard is equipped with four sensors underneath each foot pedal, that help to automatically balance the hoverboard while entering on.

• Do not go beyond the edge of the pedals, note that your foot should be on the pedal while driving.
• Do not place any baggage on the pedal, the sensor will detect weight and hold the hoverboard in on mode. This increases the likelihood of a collision, causing injury to the driver or damage to the hoverboard.

Function indicator
The function indicator is located in the middle of the electric hoverboard and is used to display current information.

• Power display area: shows the full power when blue light is on three times; shows 50% power when blue light is on twice; shows 20% power when blue light is on once. You need to charge the electric hoverboard’s battery.
• Current information display area: when the driver stands on the pedals and the sensors are activated, the lights will light blue to indicate that the hoverboard is in the operation mode. If an error has occurred in the operation mode, the indicator lights will light up red.

Follow the instructions below to learn how to drive in practice. Wear comfortable clothing and shoes, ensure flexibility of t he body and relax. Remember to use safety features such as a helmet and suitable safety equipment when driving. We hope that you will be able to complete this initial stage of driving training.

Learning to drive

1. Step 1. Press the power switch and start the electric hoverboard.
2. Step 2. If you are ready to ride, step one foot on the pedal, the sensors will start and activate the automatic hoverboard balancing function and the indicator lights will light up. Then step your foot leg on the pedal next to you, while keeping your balance. Stand on the hoverboard and do not make sudden movements while keeping your body relaxed.
3. Step 3. Stand on the hoverboard while maintaining the balance and a proper centre of gravity, as well as a proper and well-controlled position. The board will remain stationary. By gently tilting the body forward or backward, you can set the hoverboard in motion: forwards or backwards, respectively. It is important to remember that the tilt of the body should not be too large and violent.
4. Step 4. Turning. By gently moving your weight to the right foot forwards, you will start turning left, and by gently moving your weight to the left foot forwards, you will start turning right. (See following diagram of turning)
5. Step 5. Learning how to get off the hoverboard. Stop and keep the electric hoverboard stationary, and keep your body in balance before stepping off. Jump back from the board with one foot, and as you stand firmly on the ground, take off your other foot from the hoverboard pedal.
