2. 3 Calibration

If your scooter seems to pull to the left or right, you may need to recalibrate its sensors. The process requires two levels,
available at any hardware store. Many smartphones have free "bubble level" apps as well.

Step 1: Power off the scooter.
Step 2: Place each level parallel with the wheel touching the inside of the wheel base.
Step 3: Rotate the scooter until both levels on each wheel base are level. If you do not have a level, make sure both

platforms are equal with each other and level to the ground as best as possible.

Step 4: While keeping the scooter level, hold the power button down. The scooter will make the normal power on tone.

Wait 3 seconds and you will hear a single beep. Release the power button. Front LEDs will begin flashing. Power
the scooter off.

Step 5: Power on again. The scooter should now be calibrated. If the scooter is still not calibrated correctly, go to step 1

and begin making minor adjustments.

Self Balancing Electric Scooter uses Dynamic equilibrium, using internal gyroscope and acceleration sensors. The
status of the electric scooter is controlled by the center-of gravity. It is adjusted by motor which is controlled by the
servo control system. When you lean forward, it will sense your actions to accelerate. When you need to turn, slow
it down and move your foot forwards or backwards then the center-of gravity of the body moves left or right therefore
the scooter can sense moving left or right.
Self Balancing Electric Scooter has inertial dynamic stabilization system, so it can keep anterior-posterior balance but
cannot guarantee the left and right. So when turning, the scooter needs to be operated slowing, otherwise, you may
get injured.

2. 4 Operating principal

Self Balancing Electric Scooter has 4 sensors below the pedal, when the operator steps on the pedal, the scooter will
adjust itself to a balancing pattern automatically.
When riding it, you have to make sure that the pedal is being stepped on, please don’t step on the parts outside the
pedal.
Don’t put things on the pedals to make the scooter operate by itself and increase the possibility of crashing and even
cause personal injury and damge to the scooter itself.

Battery indicator part: Green light means fully charged, when the green light turns yellow, means there is half battery,
turns red means 20% battery, the scooter needs charging.
Operation indicator: When the pedal is triggered, the operation indicator will light then the system comes into
operating condition; when the system runs an error, the indicator will turn red.
