Riding Safety

  1. The G-FTis a recreational product. Before mastering riding skills, you need to practice. Neither Gyroor Technology Co., Ltd nor Shenzhen Chitado Technology Co., Ltd is responsible for any injuries or damage caused by a rider’s inexperience or failure to follow the instructions in this docume.

  2. Please understand that you can reduce the risk by following all the instructions and warnings in this manual, but you cannot eliminate all the risks. Remember that whenever you ride the G-Fl you risk injury or death from loss of control, collisions, and falls. When entering into public spaces always comply with the local laws and regulations. As with other vehicles, faster speeds require a longer braking distance. Sudden braking on smooth surfaces could lead to wheel-slip, loss of balance, or falls. Be cautious and always keep a safe distance between you and other people or vehicles when riding. Be alert and slow down when entering unfamiliar areas.

  3. Always wear a helmet when riding. 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

  4. Do not attempt your first ride in any area where you might encounter children, pedestrians, pets, vehicles, bicycles, or other obstacles and potential hazards.

  5. Respect pedestrians by always yielding the right of way. Pass on the left whenever possible. When approaching a pedestrian from the front, stay to the right and slow down. Avoid startling pedestrians. When approaching from behind, announce yourself and slow down to walking speed when passing. Please obey local traffic laws and regulations if the situation is different.

  6. In places without laws and regulations governing self-balancing electric vehicles, comply with the safety guidelines outlined in this manual. Neither Gyroor Technology (CHINA) Co., Ltd nor Shenzhen Chitado Technology Co., Ltd is responsible for any property damage, personal injury/death, accidents, or legal disputes caused by violations of the safety instructions.

  7. Do not allow anyone to ride your G-Fl on his/her own unless they have carefully read this manual, watched the safety video. The safety of new riders is your responsibility. Assist new riders until they are comfortable with the basic operation of the G-F1, make sure each new rider wears a helmet and other protective gear.

  9. Be alert! Scan both far ahead and in front of your G-Fl-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).

Do not store it outdoors for extended periods of time. Exposure to sunlight and temperature extremes (both hot and cold) will accelerate the aging process of the plastic components and may reduce battery life.
Battery Pack Maintenance
Do not store or charge the battery at temperatures outside the stated limits (see Specifications). Do not discard or destroy the battery. For more battery information, refer to the sticker on the battery itself, located on the bottom of the F1.
Refer to your local laws and regulations regarding battery recycling and/or disposal.
A well-maintained battery can perform well even after many miles of riding. Charge the battery after each ride and avoid draining the battery completely. When used at room temperature (70F[22C]) the battery range and performance is at its best; whereas using it at temperatures below 32F (0C) can decrease range and performance.
Typically, at -4F (-20°C) range can be half that of the same battery at 70F(22°C). The battery range will recover when the temperature rises. More details are available in the APP.

NOTE
Typically, a fully charged battery should retain charge for 60-90 days in Standby Mode. Remember to charge the battery after each use. Completely draining the battery may cause permanent damage to the battery. Electronics inside the battery record the charge-discharge condition of the battery; damage caused by over-discharge or under-discharge will not be covered by the Limited Warranty.
WARNING
Do not attempt to disassemble the battery. Risk of fire. No user-serviceable parts.
WARNING
Do not ride when the ambient temperature is outside the machine operation temperature(see Specifications) because low/high temperature will limit the maximum power/torque. Doing so could cause personal injury or property damage due to slips or falls.
