SCOOTER DIAGRAM

ASSEMBLY

To assemble the handlebar, it must first be fitted into the top of the handlebar stem. Slide the silver base of the handlebars into the stem and align the 4 holes (2 on either side). Then insert the 4 bolts provided loosely into the holes. Once all 4 are in position tighten them to fix the handlebar into place, taking care not to damage any of the interior wiring.

FIRST USE

IMPORTANT : Before using the scooter for the first time, fully charge the battery. After turning on the scooter, check the battery power on the display and verify that all lights are working.

• Remove the protective cover from the charging port on the scooter.
• Ensure that the charging port is dry and not damaged before inserting the charger into the port. (Refer to the scooter diagram for location).
• When the indicator on the charger is red, the scooter is charging.
• The indicator light on the charger will turn green when the battery is fully charged. This usually takes 5-6 hours.
• Do not over charge as long-term battery life may be affected. Do not leave unattended while charging
• When charging has completed, remove the charger and ensure that the protective cover is placed securely over the charging port.

UNFOLDING THE SCOOTER

1. From the folded position, unclip the handlebar from the hook on the rear mudguard.
   

2. When the handlebar is in the vertical position, lock it into place using the clamp on the front of the handlebars. Ensure that the clamp is fully secure before using.

FOLDING THE SCOOTER

Unfasten the handlebar clamp and fold the handlebars from the clamp towards the back wheel.

Fix the handlebar to the hook on the mudguard, ensuring it is securely locked in position.

TURNING ON/OFF

• Press and hold the power button below the handlebar, for around 2 seconds to turn on the scooter.
• Press and hold the power button again to turn off the scooter.

HOW TO RIDE

1. Place one foot firmly on the deck, keeping your other foot on the ground for balance.
2. Press the accelerator on the right handle and put your other foot on the scooter when it begins to move. This should all be done at very low speed.
3. Press the accelerator gradually to increase speed. Release the accelerator to gently slow down, or pull the brake lever for more immediate braking.
4. When the scooter has stopped, remove your feet one by one.

TIGHTENING THE HANDLEBAR STEM

If your scooters steering feels loose and unstable, or the front wheel is out of alignment, the handlebar stem should be adjusted following the procedure below:

1. Lock the scooter in its folded position.
2. Use the provided allen key to loosen the bolt on the clamp as shown.
3. Once the wheel is aligned, use the allen key to tighten the bolt until it is tight. Do not overtighten.
4. Once tightened the handlebars can be unfolded.

DISPLAY

• The LED display on the handlebar will turn on after powering up the scooter.
• The scooters battery level is displayed at the bottom of the display. During use, the number of bars on the battery level indicator will decrease.
• When the battery level reduces, the bars will disappear until the battery is empty. The battery warning indicator will illuminate when the battery is at critical level.
• When the battery warning light is blinking, you must slow down and find a power source immediately, as continued use may risk damaging the battery.
  

When the scooter is turned on it will be set at speed level 1, this is the lowest speed and highly recommended for beginners and inexperienced users.

To change between the three power levels, press the power button. After speed 3 has been reached, if the power button is pressed again it will cycle back to speed 1.

Quickly press the power button twice to turn the front/rear lights on or off.

The speed is shown in km/h on the top of the display.

MAINTENANCE
