3. Setup and Assembly
3.1 Unpacking
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. The box should contain one Micro Mini Deluxe Foldable LED Scooter. Inspect for any damage during transit.
3.2 Handlebar Adjustment
The handlebar height is adjustable to accommodate children from 2 to 5 years old. To adjust, locate the quick-release clamp on the stem. Open the clamp, slide the handlebar to the desired height (between 44 cm and 64 cm), and securely close the clamp. Ensure the handlebar is firmly locked in place before use.
3.3 Folding Mechanism
This scooter features a convenient folding mechanism for compact storage and transport. To fold, locate the folding button/lever near the base of the handlebar stem. Press or pull the mechanism as indicated, and gently fold the handlebar down towards the deck until it locks into the folded position. To unfold, reverse the process, ensuring the handlebar clicks securely into the upright riding position.

4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Steering and Balance
The Micro Mini Deluxe scooter uses an intuitive lean-to-steer system. To turn, the rider simply leans in the desired direction, which engages the steering mechanism. This design helps develop balance, coordination, and motor skills in young children.
4.2 Braking
The scooter is equipped with a rear brake. To slow down or stop, the rider should gently press down on the rear fender brake with their foot. Practice braking at low speeds in a safe area before riding faster.
4.3 LED Wheels
The front wheels of the Micro Mini Deluxe LED scooter illuminate as they spin. This feature is powered by kinetic energy, meaning no batteries are required. The lights provide added visibility and fun during rides.

- Fastener Check: Regularly inspect all bolts, screws, and clamps to ensure they are tight and secure. Tighten any loose fasteners.
- Storage: Store the scooter in a dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures, to prevent material degradation. The foldable design makes storage convenient.
