Safety and Warnings
WARNING: Riding an electric scooter can be a dangerous
activity. Certain conditions may cause components to fail without
fault of the manufacturer. Scooter can and is intended to move
and it is therefore possible to lose control, fall off and/or get into

can eliminate. If such a thing does occur you can become seriously
injured or die, even when using safety equipment and other safety
precautions. RIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND ALWAYS USE
COMMON SENSE.
This manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the
consequences of failing to inspect, maintain or properly use your
electric scooter. Since any incident can result in serious injury or
even death, we do not repeat the warning of possible serious injury
or death each time such a possibility is mentioned in this manual.

law or regulation in your area.)

sandals, and insure that shoelaces are tied and kept out of the way
of the wheels and drive system.
