SAFE DRIVING
Helmet: Most serious injuries that occur while riding are head injuries. This could be prevented by wearing a helmet. Elbow and Knee Pads: For added protection, always wear elbow and knee pads when riding your E-Pocket, to prevent any serious injuries.
Get to know the E-Pocket before riding it. Test your control over it. Make your turns slowly and cautiously, and give yourself stopping distance. It
is recommended you practice your rst ride on the E-Pocket in an open
space with no obstacles in your way.
DRIVING TECHNIQUE Foot Position – Before riding put your foot as close as possible to the front section of the scooter, and your other foot on the ground. Make sure that your driving route is clear. To start riding, boost yourself forward (as on non-motorized scooters) with your foot that is on the ground. Immediately after boosting yourself forward, slowly press the thumb throttle downwards, and tilt your body forward so you don’t fall backwards during acceleration. Please do not push the thumb throttle all the way down, get accustomed to the acceleration of the throttle. Avoid putting your body pressure on the handlebars in acceleration and deceleration. Keep one foot behind the other (it’s more comfortable to place one foot forward and the other one turned at 70-90°). This will help you gain more stability.
PLEASE NOTE: Riding, like most sports, involves risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride the E-Pocket the responsibility and all inherent risk is on you. It is crucial that you know, understand and act according to safety rules.
Turns - The turns on the E-Pocket are commanded by the direction you turn the Handlebar/Front Wheel in. Before turning, look both ways to make sure your path is clear.
Braking – To come to a stop, press down on the E-Brake. Be careful not to press the E-Brake too fast, as it may cause too sudden a stop or jerking motion. You may also use the Rear Foot Brake to come to a stop.

1. Plug one end of the power cord into a grounded AC outlet and the other into the E-Pocket’s Charging Port. The red charging light on the charger unit will turn on.
2. The red light will turn green once fully charged. Recharge the E-Pocket after each use.
(Please note: Always plug the charger into the wall rst before the
device. If the wall outlet doesn’t have power and you plug the charger
into the device rst, it will light green, even if the battery is not full. So always plug into the wall rst to make sure there is power.)
THE CHARGER OFFERS A CHARGING STATUS ON THE TOP OF THE CHARGER:
CHARGING LIGHT RED: Battery is charging.
CHARGING LIGHT GREEN: Charging is complete.
Don’t use the E-Pocket if the battery emits strange odors, overheats, or begins leaking. If the battery does leak, do not touch any leaking materials, as the battery contains dangerous substances. Do not open the battery and do not insert anything into the battery.
Only use the provided charger for the E-Pocket. Do not charge the battery if it has over-discharged. It should be discarded for your safety. Do not turn on the E-Pocket while it is charging.
Your E-Pocket comes with a built-in rechargeable lithium ion battery. Always use the provided charger only. The Charging Port is located on the left side of the E-Pocket near the rear wheel. Please remember to
cover the Charging Port when you are done charging. Before your rst ride you must fully charge the E-Pocket - charge for 4 hours for the rst
3 times you use it. For every ride after, charge your E-Pocket until it is fully charged, and NOT LONGER. Do not leave any chargers plugged in overnight, or leave it plugged in past the charge time.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
DRIVING RANGE The average range of the E-Pocket is 20 miles. However, a lot of factors will affect how far you can go per charge:
• Driving surface: A smooth, at surface will increase driving
distance.
• Weight: More weight means less distance.
• Ambient temperature: Please ride and store the E-Pocket un der recommended temperature, which will increase its longevity and driving distance.
• Maintenance: Timely battery charging and maintenance will increase driving distance.
• Speed and driving style: Maintaining a moderate speed will increase distance. Frequent starting and stopping, acceleration, and decelertion will reduce it.
SPEED LIMIT The top speed of the E-Pocket is 18 mph.
WEIGHT LIMIT The maximum load is 220 lbs. Going above the maximum weight limit can cause injury or damage the E-Pocket.
CLEANING THE E-POCKET To clean the E-Pocket carefully wipe with a damp cloth, then dry with a dry cloth. Do not use water to clean the E-Pocket, as the electrical and electronic systems may get wet, resulting in personal injury or malfunc­tion of the E-Pocket.

• Do not allow distractions when riding, such as answering the phone or engaging in any other activities.
• Avoid riding in the rain or on smooth surfaces such as snow or ice.
• Do not ride on roads with obstacles (such as litter, small stones, etc.).
• Avoid riding in narrow spaces or on steep slopes.
• Avoid riding around ammable gas, steam, liquid, or dust that could cause re.
• Never operate the product barefooted and keep shoelaces tied.
• Riding with improperly adjusted brakes is dangerous and can result in serious injury or death.
• Applying brakes too hard or too suddenly can lock up a wheel, which could cause you to lose control and fall. Sudden or excessive applica­tion of the brake may pitch the rider over the handlebars, which may result in injury or death.
