Proper installation is crucial for the safe and effective operation of the ZQ-100 unit. If you are unsure about any steps, it is recommended to seek professional assistance.

Tools Required:

• Wire cutters/strippers (if wiring modifications are needed).
• Electrical tape or heat shrink tubing for secure connections.

Installation Steps:

1. Prepare the Handlebar: Ensure there is sufficient space on your electric scooter's handlebar for mounting the ZQ-100 unit. You may need to remove existing grips or accessories.
2. Mount the Unit: Loosen the mounting screws on the ZQ-100's bracket. Position the unit on the handlebar and tighten the screws securely. Ensure the display is easily visible and the throttle lever is comfortably accessible.
3. Connect Wiring:
   • Identify the 6-PIN connector from the ZQ-100 unit.
   • Locate the corresponding wiring harness on your electric scooter. Refer to your scooter's wiring diagram if necessary.
   • Carefully connect the 6-PIN connector. Ensure a firm and secure connection.
   • For the electric door lock, connect its wires to the scooter's power circuit as per your scooter's specifications. This typically involves connecting to the main power supply to enable/disable the scooter.
4. Secure Wires: Route and secure all wires to prevent them from snagging or interfering with steering. Use zip ties or cable clips if needed.
5. Test Functionality: Before riding, perform a thorough test. Insert the key and turn it to the "ON" position. The LCD display should illuminate. Test the throttle response and ensure all functions (e.g., lights if connected via the switch) are working correctly.

5. Care and Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your ZQ-100 unit.
