Setup Guide
1. Unboxing and Initial Inspection
Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Verify that all parts listed in the packing list are present and undamaged. This typically includes the scooter body, handlebar, charger, and a small toolkit (screws and screwdriver).
2. Handlebar Assembly
- Lift the main stem of the scooter until it locks into the upright position.
- Attach the handlebar to the top of the stem. Ensure the cables are not pinched.
- Secure the handlebar using the provided screws and screwdriver. Tighten firmly to prevent wobbling during operation.
3. Initial Charging
Before first use, fully charge the scooter's battery. Locate the charging port, typically on the side of the deck. Connect the charger to the scooter and then to a power outlet. The charging indicator on the charger will change (e.g., from red to green) when fully charged. This process usually takes 5-6 hours.
4. Tire Pressure Check
Ensure the pneumatic tires are inflated to the recommended pressure. Refer to the tire sidewall for the correct PSI. Proper tire pressure is crucial for ride comfort, range, and tire longevity.

Operating Instructions
1. Power On/Off
Press and hold the power button on the handlebar to turn the scooter on or off. The display will illuminate when powered on.
2. Riding Modes
The i8L typically features multiple riding modes (e.g., Eco, Standard, Sport) to adjust speed and power. Press the mode button (if available) to cycle through these modes. Start with a lower speed mode until you are comfortable with the scooter's handling.
3. Acceleration
To accelerate, gently press the throttle lever, usually located on the right handlebar. For safety, it is recommended to kick-start the scooter to a low speed (e.g., 2-3 mph) before engaging the throttle.
4. Braking
The i8L is equipped with a double braking system. To slow down or stop, gently squeeze the brake levers on the handlebars. The electronic brake (EABS) and disc brake work in conjunction for effective and safe stopping. Apply brakes smoothly to avoid sudden stops.

5. Cruise Control
To activate cruise control, maintain a consistent speed for a few seconds. The scooter will typically beep or display an icon to indicate that cruise control is active. To deactivate, simply press the brake lever or throttle.
6. Folding and Unfolding
The i8L features a one-step folding mechanism. To fold, locate the folding clasp near the base of the stem, release it, and fold the stem downwards until it locks into place. To unfold, reverse the process, ensuring the stem is securely locked upright before riding.

Maintenance
1. Regular Cleaning
Clean the scooter regularly with a damp cloth. Avoid using high-pressure water jets or harsh chemicals, as these can damage electronic components. Ensure the charging port cover is securely closed when not charging.
2. Tire Maintenance
Check tire pressure weekly and inflate to the recommended PSI. Inspect tires for wear, punctures, or damage. Replace worn tires promptly to ensure safe operation and optimal performance.
3. Brake System Check
Periodically inspect the brake levers, cables, and disc brake pads for wear or damage. Ensure the brakes respond smoothly and effectively. Adjust or replace components as needed. If you notice any issues with the EABS system, contact customer support.
4. Battery Care
To prolong battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Charge the scooter after each use, especially if it will be stored for an extended period. Store the scooter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
