Original instructions
1. Riding Safety ●DO NOT bypass. Slow down when entering unfamiliar areas. Use caution when riding in areas with trees, posts, or fences.
Always slow down when turning.
●Be alert and aware of the surroundings both far ahead and in front of you when riding. Your eyes are your best tool for safely
avoiding obstacles and low traction surfaces (including, but not limited to, wet ground, loose sand, loose gravel, and ice).
●Avoid sudden acceleration and deceleration. Never ride faster than the designed top speed (the top speed can be affected
by rider weight, battery level, incline, etc.). As with other vehicles, faster speeds require longer braking distance. Sudden
braking on low traction surfaces could lead to wheel slip or falls. Be cautious and always keep a safe distance between you
and others when riding.
●Keep both hands on the handlebar and do not carry cargo of any kind. DO NOT use a cell phone, camera, headphones, ear
buds or perform any other activities while riding.
●Do not touch moving or spinning wheels. Keep your hair, clothing, or similar articles from coming in contact with the
moving parts.
WARNING
If the scooter makes abnormal sound or signals an alarm, stop riding immediately.
Who Should Not Ride:
I. Anyone under the influence of alcohol, drugs, or intoxicants.
II. Anyone who suffers from diseases (especially in the head, heart, back and neck) that put them at risk if they engage in
strenuous physical activity.
III. Anyone who has a health condition that would interfere with their ability to maintain balance.
IV. Anyone whose age, height and weight is outside the stated limits.
V. Those with compromised mental abilities who cannot understand the risks and proper operation of the vehicle.
WARNING
This scooter is unsuitable for children under 6 years due to its maximum speed.
Safe Use:
●Do not ride the scooter when the ambient temperature exceeds the operating temperature of the product (see
Specifications ), because low/high temperatures can decrease vehicle performance and even lead to accidents.
●Always park with the kickstand on a flat and stable surface. Once the scooter is on its stand, check its stability to avoid any
risk of falling (by slip, wind or slight jolt). Do not park in a busy area, but rather along a wall.
●It is recommended to conduct regular maintenance of the scooter (see Maintenance ).
●Please read the User Manual before charging the battery (see How to Charge).
WARNING
Only use the charger specified by the manufacturer. Only use the battery supplied by the manufacturer.
●Never allow your child to touch any vehicle parts with gaps such as the folding mechanism, fender brake, wheels, the brake
system, etc. Do not touch the brake or hub motor after riding, so as to avoid burns due to increased temperature.
Remember that whenever you ride the scooter, you risk injury from loss of control, collisions, and falls. To reduce the risk, you
must read and follow all “CAUTION” and “ WARNING” notices. Please understand that you can reduce the risk by following
the instructions and warnings in this manual, but you cannot eliminate all the risks. Please use common sense when riding.
1. The product is for recreation only. It is not intended for transportation. In order to master riding skills, the rider needs to
practice. Use with caution since skill is required to avoid falls or collisions causing injury to the user or third parties. Neither
Ninebot Inc., which means Ninebot (Beijing) Tech Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries and affiliates nor Segway Inc. is responsible
for any injuries, damages or legal disputes caused by a rider's inexperience or failure to follow the instructions in this
manual.
2. When entering public places, always comply with the local laws and regulations. In places without laws, comply with the
safety guidelines outlined in this manual.
3. DO NOT allow anyone to ride the scooter on his/her own unless he/she, and the supervising adults have carefully read this
manual. The safety of a new rider is your responsibility. Assist new riders until they are comfortable with the basic
operation of the scooter. Make sure each new rider wears a helmet and other protective gear.
4. Do not modify the scooter or change parts by yourself. Use only Ninebot or Segway approved parts and accessories.
Modifications to your scooter could interfere with its operations, result in serious injury and/or damage, or void the
Limited Warranty.
5. This product must be assembled and adjusted ONLY by adults. The scooter contains small parts which can pose a choking
hazard. Keep plastic covering away from children to avoid suffocation. Children should not play with the scooter or spare
parts of it, nor should cleaning, maintenance, folding and charging be done by children.
Riding Surfaces and Environment:
●This scooter is designed for riding on flat, dry paved surfaces. Ride in an open outdoor space. Make sure there are no
pedestrians, skateboards, bikes, scooters and other riders in your surroundings.
●Never use in roadways, near motor vehicles, near steep inclines or steps, swimming pools or other bodies of water. Avoid
construction sites, sudden surface changes, drainage grates, potholes, cracks, hydrants, parked cars, speed bumps and
other obstacles. Don’t ride on loose grounds (such as rocks, gravel or sand).
●Do not ride in the snow or in the rain. Submersion in water may cause the battery to damage, catch fire or even explode.
●Do not ride in extreme temperature conditions or in low visibility, such as at dawn/dusk or at night.
When Riding:
