RIDING YOUR DREAM

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

OPERATING YOUR DREAM

Make sure the Dream is fully charged before initial use. For charging instructions, please refer to “CHARGING YOUR DREAM” on page 19.
Stand directly behind your Dream 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 Dream 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 Dream and step on with your second foot quickly and evenly. HOVER-1-Dream-H1-DRM-Electric-Hoverboard-
fig-2

NOTES: Stay relaxed and step on quickly, con°idently, and evenly. Imagine climbing stairs, one foot, then the other. Look up once your feet are even. The hoverboard 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 Dream just as if you were standing on the ground.
On average, it takes 3˜5 minutes just to get comfortable standing on your Dream and maintaining proper balance. Having a spotter will help you feel more secure. The
Dream 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 °irst begin using your Dream, 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.
WARNING To avoid danger, do not turn sharply or at high speeds. Do not turn or ride quickly along slopes, as it may cause injury.
As you get comfortable on the Dream, 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.
NOTES: Try staying relaxed and focus on °inding your center of gravity to maintain full control of your Dream.
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.
WARNING Make sure to lift your feet completely o˛ the foot mat to clear the hoverboard when stepping back to dismount. Failure to do so may send the hoverboard into a tailspin.

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: 220 lbs
Minimum Weight: 44 lbs

OPERATING RANGE

The Dream can travel up to 6 miles on a fully charged battery under ideal conditions. The following are some of the major factors that will a˛ect the operating range of your Dream.

Terrain: Operating range is highest when riding on a smooth, °lat surface. Riding uphill and/or on rough terrain will reduce operating range signi°icantly.
Weight: A lighter user will have a higher operating range than a heavier user.
Ambient Temperature: Please ride and store the Dream in recommended temperatures. This will increase operating range, battery life, and overall performance of your Dream.
Speed and Riding Style: Maintaining a moderate and consistent speed while riding produces 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 Dream is unbalanced, vibrating, or not turning properly, you can follow the steps below to calibrate it:

First, place the Dream on flat ground or the °loor.˙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 off.
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 Dream, 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.)
Battery voltage is too low.
The Dream 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 Dream 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 Dream will power o˛ and stop suddenly, possibly causing the rider to lose balance or fall o˛.
If any or both tires are blocked, the Dream will stop after 2 seconds.
When the battery level has depleted below protection mode, the Dream 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 Dream will power o˛ and stop after 15 seconds.

CHARGING YOUR DREAM

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 Dream. 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 6 hours. While charging, you will see a red light.
If you charge the hoverboard while it is powered on, you will see a yellow °lashing light on the hoverboard that indicates it is charging.
After fully charging your Dream, unplug the charger from your Dream and the power outlet.
