Riding Safety

1. The product is for recreation only. It is not intended for transportation. Do not modify the kickscooter in any way to change the purpose for which it was designed. In order to master riding skills, the rider needs to practice. Use with caution since skill is required to avoid falls or collisions causing injury to the user or third parties.
2. Segway parties are not responsible for any injuries, damages or legal disputes caused by a rider’s inexperience or failure to follow the instructions in this manual.
3. Remember that whenever you ride the kickscooter, you risk injury from loss of control, collisions, and falls. To reduce the risk, you must read and follow all “CAUTION” and “ WARNING” notices. Please understand that you can reduce the risk by following the instructions and warnings in this manual, but you cannot eliminate all the risks. Please use common sense when riding.
4. The assembly and adjustment should ONLY be done by adults. The kickscooter contains small parts which can pose a choking hazard. To avoid suffocation, do not allow children to touch plastic covering. Children must always be under parental supervision.
5. DO NOT allow anyone to ride the kickscooter on his/her own unless the supervising adults, have carefully read this manual. It is the supervising adult’s responsibility to assure the new rider’s safety. Assist new riders until they are familiar with the basic operation of the kickscooter. The rider must wear a helmet and other protective gear. When you give the product to others, please deliver the User Manual together.

WARNING
Protective equipment should be worn. Not to be used in traffic. Never hitch a ride with another vehicle. DO NOT ride in rain or through puddles. Not for children with a body mass of more than 40 kg.
Riding Surfaces and Environment:

• This kickscooter is designed for riding on flat, dry, paved surfaces. Please ride in an open outdoor space. Make sure there are no children, pedestrians, pets, skateboards, bikes, kickscooters, other riders or potential obstacles in your surroundings.
•  Never use in roadways, near motor vehicles, near steep inclines or steps, swimming pools or other bodies of water. Avoid construction sites, sudden surface changes, drainage grates, potholes, cracks, hydrants, parked cars, speed bumps and other obstacles. Don’t ride on loose grounds (such as rocks, gravel or sand).
•  Do not ride in extreme temperature conditions or in low visibility, such as at dawn/dusk or at night. Do not ride in the snow or in the rain. Submersion in water may cause battery damage, catch fire or even explode.

WARNING
If the kickscooter makes an abnormal sound or signals an alarm, stop riding immediately. When riding, keep your hands on the handlebar at ALL TIMES and DO NOT ride with one hand or one foot.

Before riding:
To avoid accidental injuries, the rider’s guardian should check the following matters before each ride:

•  Vehicle body and tire state, etc. Ensure that any part including handlebar, stem, rear fender, screws are not loose or damaged.
•  Battery power: When the indicator light turns red, it means the kickscooter does not have enough power to maintain normal riding. Please charge in time to avoid possible danger.

When Riding:

•  One rider ONLY!
•  Always wear a helmet and other protective gear (such as elbow pads and knee pads) when riding the kickscooter. 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.
•  DO NOT bypass. Slow down when entering unfamiliar areas. Use caution when riding in areas with trees, posts, or fences. Always slow down when turning.
•  Be alert and aware of the surroundings both far ahead and in front of you when riding. 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).
•  Avoid sudden acceleration and deceleration. Never ride faster than the designed top speed (the top speed can be affected by rider weight, battery level, incline, etc.). 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 others when riding.
•  Keep both hands on the handlebar and do not carry cargo of any kind. DO NOT use a cell phone, camera, headphones, earbuds or perform any other activities while riding. DO NOT ride downhill.
•  Do not touch moving or spinning wheels. Keep your hair, clothing, or similar articles from coming in contact with the moving parts.
•  Please get off the kickscooter and walk along with it when you encounter special road surfaces such as speed bumps and potholes.

Who Should Not Ride:

1.  Anyone under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or intoxicants.
2.  Anyone who suffers from diseases (especially in the head, heart, back and neck) that put them at risk if they engage in strenuous physical activity.
3.  Anyone who has a health condition that would interfere with their ability to maintain balance.
4.  Anyone whose age, height and weight is outside the stated limits (see Specifications).
5. Those with compromised mental abilities who cannot understand the risks and proper operation of the vehicle.

Safe Use:

•  Do not ride the kickscooter when the ambient temperature exceeds the operating temperature of the product (see Specifications), because low/high temperatures can decrease vehicle performance and even lead to accidents.
•  Always park with the kickstand on a flat and stable surface. Once the kickscooter is on its stand, check its stability to avoid any risk of falling (by slip, wind or slight jolt). Do not park in a busy area, but rather along a wall.
•  It is recommended to conduct regular maintenance of the kick scooter (see Maintenance ).
•  Please read the User Manual before charging the battery (see How to Charge).
