Safety Precautions

The primary rule in safe riding is common sense.

Different localities and countries have varying laws for electric transportation devices on public roads. Check with local officials to ensure compliance with traffic laws. Hover-1 is not liable for tickets or violations resulting from failure to follow local laws and regulations.

For your safety, always wear a helmet that meets CPSC or CE safety standards. A helmet can protect you from serious injury and, in some cases, death, during an accident.

• Obey all local traffic laws, including traffic signals, one-way streets, stop signs, and pedestrian crosswalks.
• Ride with the traffic flow, not against it.
• Ride defensively and anticipate the unexpected.
• Give pedestrians the right-of-way.
• Do not ride too close to pedestrians; alert them if you intend to pass.
• Slow down at intersections and check left and right before crossing.

Your Eagle electric folding scooter is not equipped with reflectors. Riding in low visibility conditions is not recommended. If riding in low visibility, ensure your LED light is on and wear bright, reflective clothing.

⚠️ WARNING: Riding in low-visibility conditions (fog, dusk, night) can make you difficult to see, potentially leading to a collision. Wear bright, reflective clothing to increase safety in poor lighting.

Think about safety while riding to prevent accidents. Below is a safety checklist:

Riding Your Eagle Scooter

FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CAN AND MAY LEAD TO DAMAGE TO YOUR DEVICE, VOID YOUR MANUFACTURER WARRANTY, LEAD TO PROPERTY DAMAGE, CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, AND CAN LEAD TO DEATH.

Operating Your Device

Ensure the device is fully charged before initial use. Before turning on, ride it like a normal kick scooter to get comfortable. When comfortable, power it on. For the motor to activate, start riding and then push the throttle down. To slow down, push the electric brake lever. This stops the motor and slows you. You can also use your foot on the mechanical brake to slow down manually. To turn, use the handlebar in the desired direction. The scooter can be operated manually if you prefer not to use the motor. As you gain experience, maneuvering becomes easier. At higher speeds, shift your weight to overcome centrifugal force. Brace yourself for bumps or uneven surfaces, then dismount and carry your Eagle to a safe operating surface.

⚠️ WARNING: Do not turn sharply or at high speeds to avoid danger. Do not turn or ride quickly along slopes, as it may cause injury.

Weight and Speed Limitations

Speed and weight limits are for your safety. Do not exceed the limits listed in the Specifications section.

⚠️ WARNING: Overweight exertion on the device may increase the possibility of injury or product damage.

Operating Range

Factors affecting operating range:

• Terrain: Riding distance is greatest on smooth, flat surfaces. Uphill riding and rough terrain significantly reduce distance.
• Weight: Lighter users have a longer range than heavier users.
• Ambient Temperature: Ride and store the device under recommended temperatures for increased driving distance, battery life, and performance.
• Speed and Riding Style: Moderate, consistent speed maximizes distance. High speeds, frequent starts/stops, idling, and frequent acceleration/deceleration decrease overall distance.

*Do not attempt to stop suddenly, as this may lead to injury or damage to your brake discs.

⚠️ WARNING: Proper use of your brake is vital for safe, efficient stopping. To avoid misuse and injury, do not apply sudden or excessive force. Apply brakes gradually and allow ample room for a complete stop.
