DOs and DON’Ts while Riding

Before Riding
Please check the following details before riding.

Braking Precautions
Only apply brakes when the scooter is upright. If the tires are locked and the scooter loses steering ability resulting from excessive braking force, loosen the grip on the brake lever. The tires will unlock and the scooter will be stabilized. Try to maintain a 1:1 ratio of front and rear braking force on slippery roads. For your safety, do not exceed the speed limit, use the brakes gently to maintain a safe speed while riding downhill.

ATTENTION: Inexperienced riders tend to use the rear brake only, which will accelerate the wear of the brake and result in a longer braking distance.
WARNING: Using the front brake or rear brake only is dangerous because of possible grip or control loss. Pay extra attention and use the brakes gently when riding on damp, slippery roads and around corners.
