RIDING YOUR TURBO
FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CAN AND MAY LEAD TO DAMAGE TO YOUR Turbo, VOID YOUR MANUFACTURER WARRANTY, LEAD TO PROPERTY DAMAGE, CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, AND CAN LEAD TO DEATH.
Before using your Turbo, be sure to familiarize yourself with the operating procedures.
OPERATING YOUR Turbo
Make sure the Turbo is fully charged before initial use. For chirping instructions, please follow details under CHARGING YOUR Turbo.
Stand directly behind your Turbo and place one foot on the corresponding foot
mat (as described in the diagram below). Keep your weight on the foot which is
still on the ground, otherwise the Turbo may begin to move or vibrate, making
it difficult to step on evenly with your other foot. When you are ready, shift
your weight to the foot already placed on the Turbo and step on with your
second foot quickly and evenly (as described in the diagram below).
NOTE
Stay relaxed and step on quickly, confidently and evenly. Imagine climbing
stairs, one foot, then the other. Look up once your feet are even. The Turbo
may vibrate or spin in one direction, if weight and pressure are applied to
only one foot mat. THIS IS NORMAL.
Find your center of gravity. If your weight is distributed correctly on the foot mats and your center of gravity is level, you should be able to stand on your Turbo just as if you were standing on the ground.
On average, it takes 3-5 minutes just to get comfortable standing on your Turbo and maintaining proper balance. Having a spotter will help you feel more secure. The Turbo is an incredibly intuitive device: it senses even the slightest bit of motion, so having any anxiety or reservation about stepping on may cause you to panic and trigger unwanted movement.
When you first begin using your Turbo, the fastest way to move in your desired direction is to focus in that direction. You will notice that just thinking about which way you would like to go will shift your center of gravity, and that subtle movement will propel you in that direction.
Your center of gravity determines which direction you move, accelerate,
decelerate, and come to a complete stop. As described in the diagram below,
tilt your center of gravity in the direction you wish to move.
To turn, focus on the direction you wish to turn and stay relaxed.
**WARNING**
Do not turn sharply or at high speeds to avoid danger. Do not turn or ride
quickly along slopes, as it may cause injury.
As you get comfortable on the Turbo, you will notice it becomes easier to
maneuver. Remember at higher speeds, it is necessary to shift your weight to
overcome the centrifugal force.
Bend your knees if you encounter bumps or uneven surfaces, then dismount and
carry your Turbo to a safe operating surface.
NOTE
Try staying relaxed and focus on finding your center of gravity to maintain
full control of your Turbo.
Dismounting your Turbo can be one of the easiest steps, yet when done
incorrectly, may cause you to fall. To properly dismount, from a stopped
position, lift one leg up and set your foot back down on the ground (STEPPING
BACK). Then step off completely as describe din the following diagram.
WARNING
Make sure to lift your feet completely off the foot mat to clear the Turbo
when stepping back to dismount. Failure to do so may send the Turbo into a
tailspin.
WEIGHT AND SPEED LIMITATIONS
Speed and weight limits are set for your own safety. Please do not exceed the limits listed here in the manual.
- Maximum Weight: 220Ibs
- Minimum Weight: 44 lbs
- Maximum Speed: Up to 7 mph
WARNING
Overweight exertion on the Turbo may increase possibility **of injury or
product damage.
**
NOTE
To prevent injurie, when max speed is reached, the Turbo will beep to alert
the user and tilt the rider slowly back.
OPERATING RANGE
The Turbo can travel a distance up to 6 miles on a fully charged battery in ideal conditions. The following are some of the major factors that will affect the operating range of your Turbo.
- Terrain: Riding distance is highest when ending on a smooth, flat surface. Riding uphill and/or on rough tetani will reduce distance significantly.
- Weight: A lighter user will have further range than a heavier user.
- Ambient temperature: Please ride and store the Turbo under recommended temperatures, which will increase riding distance, battery life, and overall performance of your Turbo.
- Speed and Riding Style: Maintaining a moderate and consistent speed while riding produces maximum distance. Traveling at high speeds for extended pends, frequent starts and stops, idling and frequent acceleration or deceleration will decrease overall distance.
BALANCE & CALIBRATION
If your Turbo is unbalanced, vibrating, or not turning properly, you con follow the below steps to calibrate it.
- First, place the Turbo on a flat, horizontal surface such as the floor or a table. The foot mats should be even with each other and not tilted forward or backward. Make sure the charger is not plopped in and the board is turned off.
- Press and hold the ON/OFF button for a total of 15 seconds. The scooter will turn on, lighting the battery indicator on the board.
- After the light flashes 5 times consecutively you may release the ON/OFF button.
- Turn the board off and then turn the board back on. Calibration will now be completed.
SAFETY ALERT
While riding your Turbo, if there is a system error or improper operation performed, the Turbo will prompt the user in a variety of ways.
You will notice the Running Indicator Light will turn RED and you will hear a beep sound alerting you to take precaution and cease operation, which may make the device stop suddenly.
The following are common occurrences where you will hear the Safety Alerts. These notices should not be ignored, but appropriate action should be taken to correct any illegal operation, failure or errors.
- Unsafe riding surfaces (uneven, too steep, unsafe, etc.)
- When you step on the Turbo, if the platform is tilted more than 10 degrees forward or backward.
- Battery voltage is too low.
- The Turbo is still charging.
- During operation, the platform self initiates to tilt due to excess speed.
- Overheating, or motor temperature is too high.
- The Turbo has been rocking back and forth for over 30 seconds.

- If the platform is tilted forward or backward more than 10 degrees, your Turbo will power off and stop suddenly, possibly causing the rider to lose balance or fall off.
- If any or both tires are blocked, the Turbo will stop after 2 seconds.
- When the battery level has depleted below protection mode, the Turbo engine will power off and stop after 15 seconds.
- While sustaining a high discharge current during use (such as driving up a steep slope for a long period of time), the Turbo engine will power off and stop after 5 seconds.

halt. Do not continue attempting to nde the Turbo when the system initiates a
stop. Turn your Turbo off and back on to unlock it from a Safety Lock.
