2. Safety Information

Your safety is paramount. Always adhere to the following safety guidelines:

• Weight Capacity: Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 330 lbs (150 kg) on flat surfaces. When operating on inclines, the maximum recommended weight is 220 lbs (100 kg) for inclines up to 5 degrees. Exceeding these limits can compromise stability and performance.
• Incline Limits: The scooter is designed for inclines up to 5 degrees. Avoid steeper slopes to prevent tipping or loss of control.
• Terrain: The 8-inch anti-slip wheels are suitable for various terrains including cement paths and grass. Exercise caution on uneven, slippery, or soft surfaces.
• Folding and Transport: When folding the scooter for transport, ensure the seat is removed and the steering yoke is laid down. Confirm that your vehicle's trunk dimensions (minimum L*H=43.3in * 19.6in) can accommodate the folded scooter.
• Battery Safety: Use only the provided charger. Do not expose the battery to extreme temperatures or puncture it. Refer to the charging instructions for safe battery management.
• Operation: Always operate the scooter at a safe speed, especially in crowded areas or unfamiliar environments. Be aware of your surroundings and potential obstacles.
• Braking: Familiarize yourself with the hand brake and push-to-lock mechanism. Test brakes before each use.

6. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your scooter.

• Battery Care: Always fully charge the battery after each use. If storing the scooter for an extended period, charge the battery at least once a month to maintain its health. Do not allow the battery to fully discharge for prolonged periods.
• Cleaning: Clean the scooter regularly with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Do not spray water directly onto electrical components.
• Tire Inspection: Periodically check the 8-inch solid wheels for wear and tear. While solid wheels do not require air pressure, ensure they are free from debris and damage.
• Brake Check: Regularly inspect the brake system for proper function. Ensure the brake handle operates smoothly and the push-to-lock mechanism engages correctly.
• Fasteners: Periodically check all nuts, bolts, and fasteners to ensure they are tight.
• Storage: Store the scooter in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.

• Scooter does not power on:
  • Ensure the key is fully inserted and turned to the 'ON' position.
  • Check if the battery is properly connected and fully charged.
  • Verify that the battery pack is securely seated in its compartment.
• Scooter moves slowly or has reduced range:
  • The battery may be low. Recharge the battery fully.
