Common questions about manuals, registration, and support for this brand.
By default, new scooters may be speed-limited (often 15 km/h). To unlock the full speed capability, you typically need to pair the scooter with the NIU App and complete the new rider tutorial, or ride the scooter for a distance of 200 meters.
For most models like the KQi2 and KQi3, the recommended tire pressure is between 45-50 psi. Regular inflation checks every 3 months help prevent flats and improve ride quality.
Download the NIU App, create an account, and turn on your scooter. Tap 'Device Binding' in the app and select your scooter from the list (ensure Bluetooth is active on your phone). Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the pairing.
Common error codes include 02 (Brake fault) or 03 (Throttle fault). Check if the brake lever or throttle is stuck. If the error persists or codes related to the battery/controller appear, contact NIU support.
Most NIU scooters have an IP rating (e.g., IP54 or IPX5) protecting against splashes, but they are not fully waterproof. It is recommended to avoid riding in heavy rain or through deep puddles to prevent water damage to electrical components.
