Setup

The ASKGO K10 Electric Scooter comes 100% pre-assembled, minimizing setup time. Follow these steps for initial preparation:

1. Unfolding the Scooter:

   Carefully remove the scooter from its packaging. Locate the folding mechanism on the stem. Release the latch and unfold the stem until it locks securely into place. Ensure the stem lock prevents accidental detachment.

2. Adjusting the Seat and Handlebars:

   The seat height is adjustable to accommodate riders from 4'9" to 5'9". Loosen the quick-release lever on the seat post, adjust to your desired height, and securely fasten the lever. Similarly, adjust the handlebar height for comfortable riding posture.

3. Initial Charge:

   Before your first ride, fully charge the scooter's battery. Connect the charger to the charging port, typically located on the side of the scooter's deck, and then plug it into a standard wall outlet. The indicator light on the charger will change (e.g., from red to green) when charging is complete. This may take several hours.

4. Attaching the Rear Basket (if not pre-attached):

   If your rear basket is not pre-attached, follow the instructions provided with the basket to securely mount it to the rear rack of the scooter. Ensure it is stable and can support the intended load (up to 39.6 lbs / 18 kg).

Riding the Scooter:

1. Starting: Ensure the scooter is powered on. Place one foot on the deck and use the other foot to push off gently to gain some initial momentum.
2. Acceleration: Once moving, gently press the throttle to engage the motor and accelerate. Avoid sudden acceleration.

5. Folding for Transport: To fold the scooter, ensure it is powered off. Release the stem lock and carefully fold the stem down towards the deck until it latches. This compact size makes it easy to store or transport in a car trunk or on public transport.

  • Store the scooter in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
