RIDING YOUR TITAN

FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MAY LEAD TO DAMAGE TO YOUR TITAN , DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, VOID YOUR MANUFACTURER WARRANTY, AND MAY CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR DEATH.
Before using your Titan, be sure to familiarize yourself with the operating procedures.

OPERATING YOUR TITAN
Make sure the Titan is fully charged before initial use. For charging instructions, please refer to “CHARGING YOUR Titan” on page 19.
Stand directly behind your Titan and place one foot on the corresponding foot mat (as shown in the diagram below). Keep your weight on the foot that is still on the ground, otherwise, the Titan 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 Titan and step on with your second foot quickly and evenly.

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 Titan just as if you were standing on the ground.
On average, it takes 3˜5 minutes just to get comfortable standing on your Titan and maintaining proper balance. Having a spotter will help you feel more secure. The Titan is an incredibly sensitive device; it senses even the slightest bit of motion. Having any anxiety or reservation about stepping on may cause you to panic and trigger unwanted movement.
When you first begin using your Titan, 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 and your speed. Stand straight up to come to a complete stop. As shown 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. Apply pressure on your right foot to turn right and apply pressure on your left foot to turn left.

As you get comfortable on the Titan, you will notice it becomes easier to maneuver. Remember at higher speeds, it is necessary to shift your weight when making turns to maintain your stability.
Bend your knees if you encounter bumps or uneven surfaces, then dismount and carry your hoverboard to a safe operating surface.

Dismounting your hoverboard can be one of the easiest steps, yet when done incorrectly, may cause you to fall. To properly dismount from a stopped position, lift your dominant leg up and set your foot down on the ground behind you (STEP BACK). Then, step o˛ the hoverboard with your other foot, as shown in the diagram below.

SPEED AND WEIGHT LIMITATIONS
Speed and weight limits are set for your own safety. Please abide by the limits listed here in the manual.

• Maximum Speed: 7 mph
• Maximum Weight: 264 lbs
• Minimum Weight: 44 lbs

OPERATING RANGE
The Titan can travel up to 8 miles on a fully charged battery under ideal conditions. The following are some of the major factors that will affect the operating range of your Titan.

• Terrain: Operating range is highest when riding on a smooth, flat surface. Riding uphill and/or on rough terrain will reduce operating range significantly.
• Weight: A lighter user will have a higher operating range than a heavier user.
• Ambient Temperature: Please ride and store the Titan in recommended temperatures. This will increase operating range, battery life, and overall performance of your Titan.
• Speed and Riding Style: Maintaining a moderate and consistent speed while riding produces a maximum operating range. Traveling at high speeds for extended periods of time, frequent starts and stops, and idling will decrease overall operating range.

BALANCE & CALIBRATION

If your Titan is unbalanced, vibrating, or not turning properly, you can follow the steps below to calibrate it:

• First, place the Titan on flat ground or the floor.˙The foot mats should be even with each other and not tilted forward or backward. Make sure the charger is not plugged in and the hoverboard is turned o˛.
• Press and hold the power button for a total of 10˜15 seconds. The hoverboard will turn on, and the battery indicator will light up.
• After the light flashes 5 times consecutively, you may release the power button. Turn the hoverboard o˛ and then back on. Calibration is now complete.

SAFETY ALERTS

If a system error occurs or an improper operation is performed while riding the Titan, the device will alert 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. The hoverboard may stop suddenly.
The following are common occurrences that will produce safety alerts. These notices should not be ignored, and appropriate action should be taken to correct any improper operation, failure, or errors.

• Unsafe riding surfaces (uneven, too steep, unsafe, etc.)
• The battery voltage is too low.
• The Titan is still charging.
• During operation, the platform self-initiates to tilt due to excess speed.
• The hoverboard is overheating, or the motor temperature is too high.
• The Titan has been rocking back and forth for over 30 seconds.
• If the system enters protection mode, the alarm indicator will light up and the hoverboard will vibrate. This typically occurs when the battery is about to run out of power.
• If the platform is tilted forward or backward more than 10 degrees, the Titan will power o˛ and stop suddenly, possibly causing the rider to lose balance or fall o˛.
• If any or both tires are blocked, the Titan will stop after 2 seconds.
• When the battery level has depleted below protection mode, the Titan will power o˛ and stop after 15 seconds.
• If a high discharge current is produced during use (such as driving up a steep slope for a long period of time), the Titan will power o˛ and stop after 15 seconds.

CHARGING YOUR TITAN

• Ensure that the charging port is clean and dry.
• Make sure that there is no dust, debris, or dirt inside the port.
• Plug the charger into a grounded wall outlet. The charging indicator light on the charger will be green.
• Connect the charging cable to the power supply (100V˜240V; 50Hz/60 Hz).
• Align and connect the 3-pin charging cable into the charging port of the Titan. DO NOT FORCE THE CHARGER INTO THE CHARGING PORT, AS THIS MAY CAUSE THE PRONGS TO BREAK OFF OR CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE CHARGING PORT.
• Once attached to the hoverboard, the charging indicator light on the charger should change to red, indicating that your device is now being charged.
• When the red light on your charger turns to green, then your hoverboard is fully charged. A full charge may take up to 5 hours. While charging, you will see a red light.
• If you charge the hoverboard while it is powered on, you will see a yellow flashing light on the hoverboard that indicates it is charging.
• After fully charging your Titan, unplug the charger from your Titan and the power outlet.
