Figure 2: Important safety precautions for operating the electric scooter.
- Please wear helmets and other safety protective equipment at all times when riding, and drive safely in accordance with local laws and regulations.
- Medium-speed range: Measured at full power, 65kg load, 5-25°C, tire pressure 40-45psi, driving at a constant speed on a flat, hardened road in second gear. Actual range varies depending on weight, temperature, road conditions.
- Above data from KuKirin laboratory. In actual use, it will vary due to driving habits, terrain, temperature and other factors.
- It is recommended that the electric scooter be used only on flat hard surfaces, avoiding obstacles and roads that are not easy to ride (including, but not limited to, slippery surfaces, loose sand, gravel surfaces and ice). If you encounter speed bumps, potholes, and other extraordinary surfaces in actual use, do not pass at high speeds, keep the speed low to medium (5-10km/h), and bend your knees a little to better adapt to the above complex road surfaces.
- If riding at night or in low-light conditions, make sure your scooter has turned on the front and rear lights and wear reflective clothing for better visibility.
