All beginnings are difficult, you therefore first have to master the basics of scooter-riding, and then progress with time. Be extremely cautious and not rush anything.
The scooter is ridden by regularly pushing the foot against the ground. To brake, simply step on the brake plate of the rear wheel. The braking force can be dosed by a light firm step. Before you ride at higher speeds, you should practice riding at a slower speed and try to safely come to a helmet. You should basically never ride faster than you can run.
Warning Notices
As with all mobile products, riding a scooter can also constitute a dangerous activity and lead to dangerous situations. This scooter should be used with caution, since a certain degree of skills is required in order to avoid falls and collisions that could result in injury to the user or third parties. Please make sure that you have read the entire user manual before using the scooter. Take particular note of the following notices:
1. Always wear protective clothing, such as helmets, hand/wrist guards, elbow pads, knee pads, long-sleeved shirts and long pants. Always wear a helmet when you are traveling with your scooter, and tighten the carry strap securely.
2. Always wear complete closed shoes and make sure that laces are properly tied up before you ride off. You may not ride barefooted or in sandals.
3. Ride the scooter only on flat and level ground. Do NOT use the scooter on wet and uneven ground with stones or gravel. You should also NOT use the scooter at dusk or dawn, at night or in wet or icy conditions.
4. NEVER steer the scooter with one hand, but always with both hands. You have to grip the handlebar firmly with both hands.
5. Do NOT exercise any sharp or short turning maneuvers when you ride the scooter. Do NOT lean the upper part of your body on the handlebar when you turn, since the handlebar of the scooter bends and can thus lead to a loss of control.
6. Do NOT ride the scooter on slippery or wet surfaces because the PU wheels could slip and you can lose control of the scooter. Avoid the streets and surfaces with water, sand, gravel, dirt, leaves, and other debris. Wet weather impairs traction, braking, and visibility.
7. Do NOT use the scooter on steep slopes as the device may be damaged or a brake failure can occur. The riders need to be careful on such routes. Avoid excessive speeds that for example can be achieved when driving downhill.
8. Avoid strong bumps, drain grating, and sudden changes of the riding surface. The scooter could stop abruptly.
9. Activate the brake pedal to ensure that the brake works before you use the device. The brake pedal can heat up after continuous use. Please do NOT touch it after the braking operation as this could cause injury.
10. Turn the handlebar to the right and left to ensure that it works correctly and smoothly. Also, check whether the handlebar stem is tightened before riding the scooter.
11. Children should at all times ride under parental supervision. The supervising person should inspect the scooter prior to each use in order to ensure that all constituent parts are fully assembled and tightened, so as to prevent accidents. The functions of self-securing screws threads can be impaired after repeated loosening and tightening of the connecting elements.
