1 Riding Safety
1. The KickScooter is a recreational product. Before mastering riding skills, you need to practice. Neither Ninebot Inc.
(means Ninebot (Beijing) Tech Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries and affiliates) nor Segway Inc. is responsible for any
injuries or damage caused by a rider's inexperience or failure to follow the instructions in this document.
2. Please understand that you can reduce the risk by following all the instructions and warnings in this manual, but
you cannot eliminate all the risks. Remember that whenever you ride the KickScooter you risk injury from loss of
control, collisions, and falls. When entering into public spaces always comply with the local laws and regulations. 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 other people or vehicles
when riding. Be alert and slow down when entering unfamiliar areas.
3. Always wear a helmet when riding. Use an approved bicycle or skateboard helmet that fits properly with the chin
strap in place, and provides protection for the back of your head.
4. Do not attempt your first ride in any area where you might encounter children, pedestrians, pets, vehicles, bicycles,
or other obstacles and potential hazards.
5. Respect pedestrians by always yielding the right of way. Pass on the left whenever possible. When approaching a
pedestrian from the front, stay to the right and slow down. Avoid startling pedestrians. When approaching from
behind, announce yourself and slow down to walking speed when passing. Please obey local traffic laws and
regulations if situation is different.
6. In places without laws comply with the safety guidelines outlined in this manual. Neither Ninebot Inc. nor Segway
Inc. is responsible for any property damage, personal injury/death, accidents, or legal disputes caused by violations
of the safety instructions.
7. Do not allow anyone to ride your KickScooter on his/her own unless they have carefully read this manual and
followed the New Rider Tutorial in the App. The safety of new riders is your responsibility. Assist new riders until
they are comfortable with the basic operation of the KickScooter. Make sure each new rider wears a helmet and
other protective gear.
8. Before each ride check for loose fasteners and damaged components. If the KickScooter makes abnormal sounds
or signals an alarm, immediately stop riding. Diagnose your KickScooter via the Segway-Ninebot App and call your
dealer/distributor for service.
9. Be alert! Scan both far ahead and in front of your KickScooter — 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).
10. To reduce risk of injury, you must read and follow all “CAUTION” and “WARNING” notices in this document. Do not
ride at an unsafe speed. Under no circumstance should you ride on roads with motor vehicles. The manufacturer
recommends riders be 14+ years old. Always follow these safety instructions:
A. People who should not ride the KickScooter include:
i. Anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
ii. Anyone who suffers from disease that puts them at risk if they engage in strenuous physical activity.
iii. Anyone who has problems with balance or with motor skills that would interfere with their ability to maintain
balance.
iv. Anyone whose weight is outside the stated limits (see Specifications).
v. Pregnant women.
B. Riders under the age of 18 years old should ride under adult supervision.
C. Comply with local laws and regulations when riding this product. Do not ride where prohibited by local laws.
D. To ride safely, you must be able to clearly see what is in front of you and you must be clearly visible to others.
E. Do not ride in the snow, in the rain, or on roads which are wet, muddy, icy, or that are slippery for any reason. Do
not ride over obstacles (sand, loose gravel, or sticks). Doing so could result in a loss of balance or traction and
could cause a fall.
11. Do not attempt to charge your KickScooter if it, the charger, or the power outlet is wet.
12. As with any electronic device, use a surge protector when charging to help protect your KickScooter from damage
due to power surges and voltage spikes. Only use the Segway supplied charger. Do not use a charger from any
other different product models.
13. Use only Ninebot or Segway approved parts and accessories. Do not modify your KickScooter. Modifications to
your KickScooter could interfere with the operation of the KickScooter, could result in serious injury and/or
damage, and could void the Limited Warranty.

9 Folding and Carrying
10 Maintenance
Safety Hook
Folding Open
Turn off your KickScooter. Turn the safety hook counterclockwise and open the quick release lever.
Align the bell and the buckle and hook them.
Disengage the bell lever from the buckle. Fold the handlebar stem up, close the quick release lever and turn the safety hook clockwise.
Carrying
When your KickScooter is folded up, simply lift it by the stem to carry.
Cleaning and Storage
Use a soft, wet cloth to wipe the mainframe clean. Hard to remove dirt can be scrubbed with a toothbrush and toothpaste, then cleaned with a soft, wet cloth.
NOTE
Do not wash your KickScooter with alcohol, gasoline, acetone, or other corrosive/volatile solvents. These substances may damage the appearance and internal structure of your KickScooter. Do not wash your KickScooter with a power washer or hose.
WARNING
Make sure the KickScooter is powered OFF, the charging cable is unplugged, and the rubber cap on the charge port is tightly sealed before cleaning; otherwise you may damage the electronic components.
Store your KickScooter in a cool, dry place. Do not store it outdoors for extended periods of time. Exposure to sunlight and temperature extremes (both hot and cold) will accelerate the aging process of the plastic components and may reduce battery life.
Battery Pack Maintenance
Do not store or charge the battery at temperatures outside the stated limits (see Specifications). Do not puncture the battery. Refer to your local laws and regulations regarding battery recycling and/or disposal.
A well maintained battery can perform well even after many miles of riding. Charge the battery after each ride and avoid draining the battery completely. When used at room temperature (70°F [22°C]) the battery range and performance is at its best; whereas using it at temperatures below 32°F (0°C) can decrease range and performance. Typically, at -4°F (-20°C) range can be half that of the same battery at 70°F (22°C). Battery range will recover when temperature rises. More details are available in the App.
NOTE
Typically, a fully charged battery should retain charge for 120-180 days. A low-power battery should retain charge for 30-60. Remember to charge the battery after each use. Completely draining the battery may cause permanent damage to the battery. Electronics inside the battery record the charge-discharge condition of the battery; damage caused by over-charging or under-charging will not be covered by the Limited Warranty.
WARNING
Do not attempt to disassemble the battery. Do not touch battery contacts. Do not dismantle or puncture the casing. Keep the battery contacts away from metal objects to prevent short circuit. Risk of fire. No user serviceable parts. Do not charge or use your battery if it is damaged or see trace of water.
WARNING
Do not ride when the ambient temperature is outside the machine operation temperature (see Specifications) because low/high temperature will limit the maximum power/torque. Doing so could cause personal injury or property damage due to slips or falls.
