Safety Reminder
- This electric scooter is a leisure device. But once they’re in a public area, they’ll be seen as vehicles, subjecting to any risks faced by vehicles. For your safety, please follow instructions in the manual and traffic laws and regulations set forth by government and regulatory agencies.
- At the same time, you should understand that risks cannot be entirely avoided as others may violate traffic regulations and drive incautiously, and you’re exposed to road accidents just as when you’re walking or biking. The faster the scooter is, the longer it takes to stop. On a smooth surface, the scooter may slip, lose balance, and even result in a fall. Thus it is crucial that you use caution, keep proper speed and distance, especially so when you’re unfamiliar with the place.
- Respect pedestrians’ Right of Way. Try not to startle them while driving, especially children. When you ride from behind pedestrians, ring your bell to give them a heads-up and slow your scooter to pass from their left (applicable to countries where vehicles drive on the right). When you ride across pedestrians, keep to the right at a low speed. When you drive across pedestrains, keep the lowest speed or getting off the vehicle.
- Closely follow the safety instructions in the manual especially in China and countries that lack relevant laws and regulations regarding electric scooters. MACWHEEL, Ltd. shall not be liable for any financial losses, physical injuries, accidents, legal disputes and other interest conflicts resulted from actions that violate user instructions.
- Do not lend your scooter to whoever knows not the operations. And when you do lend it to your friends, please take the responsibility to ensure he/she knows the operation and wears the safety gear.
- Check the scooter before every use. When you note loosen parts, low battery alerts, flat tires, excessive wear, strange sounds, malfunctions and other abnormal conditions, stop riding immediately and call for professional support.
WARNING — Risk of Fire —- No User Serviceable Parts.
Folding and Carrying
Make sure that the scooter’s turned off. To fold, unlock the folding mechanism, and bend the handlebar stem to hook the buckle on the rear mudguard. To open, press the bell trigger to remove from the buckle, erect the handlebar and lock the folding structure.

Daily Care and Maintenance
Cleaning and storage
If you see stains on the scooter’s body, wipe them off with a damp cloth. If
the stains won’t scrub off, put on some toothpaste, and brush them with a
toothbrush, then wipe them off with a damp cloth. If you see scratches on
plastic parts, use sandpaper or other abrasive materials to polish them.
Notes : do not clean the scooter with alcohol, gasoline, kerosene or
other corrosive and volatile chemical solvents to prevent dire damage. Do not
wash the scooter with a high-pressure water spray. During cleaning, make sure
that the scooter’s turned off, the charging cable is unplugged, and the rubber
flap is closed as water leakage may result in electric shock or other major
problems.
When the scooter’s not in use, keep it indoors where it is dry and cool. Do
not put it outdoors for long time. Excessive sunlight, overheating and
overcooling accelerate tire aging and compromise the scooter and the battery
pack’s lifespan.
Battery maintenance
- Use original battery packs, use of other models or brands may bring about safety issues;
- Do not touch the contacts. Do not dismantle or puncture the casing. Keep the contacts away from metal objects to prevent short circuit which may result in battery damage or even injuries and deaths;
- Use original power adapter to avoid potential damage or fire;
- Mishandling of used batteries may do tremendous harm to the environment. To protect natural environment, please follow local regulations to properly dispose used batteries.
- After every use, fully charge the battery to prolong its lifespan.
Do not place the battery in an environment where the ambient temperature is
higher than 122°F or lower than -4°F (e.g., do not leave the scooter or the
battery pack in a car under direct sunlight for an extended time). Do not
throw the battery pack into fire as it may lead to battery failure, battery
overheating, and even another fire. If the scooter is expected to be left idle
for more than 30 days, please fully charge the battery and place it in a dry
and cool place. Keep in mind to recharge it every 60 days to protect the
battery from potential damage which is beyond limited warranty.
Always charge before exhausting the battery to prolong the battery’s lifespan.
The battery pack performs better at normal temperature, and poor when it is
below 32°F. For instance, when it is below -4°F, the riding range is only half
or less at normal state. When the temperature rises, the riding range
restores. For detailed information, please refer to Macwheel App.
Note: fully charged Macwheel Electric Scooter will takes around 5-6 hours. The
built-in intelligent chip will keep a log of its charging and discharging
records. The damage caused by prolonged no charge is irreversible and is
beyond limited warranty. Once the damage is done, the battery can not be
recharged (non-professionals are forbidden to dismantle the battery pack, as
it may cause electric shock, short circuit or even major safety accidents).
