SAFETY WARNINGS

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO PARENTS: This manual contains important
information. For your child’s safety, it is your responsibility to review this
information with your child and make sure that your child understands all
warnings, cautions, instructions and safety topics. Razor USA recommends
that you periodically review and reinforce the information in this manual with
younger riders, and that you are required to inspect and maintain your child’s
scooter to insure their safety.

GENERAL WARNING: Scooter riding can be a hazardous activity.
Scooters can and are intended to move, and it is therefore possible to get into
dangerous situations and/or lose control and/or fall. If such things occur you
can be seriously injured or die. LIKE ANY OTHER MOVING PRODUCT, USING
A SCOOTER CAN BE A DANGEROUS ACTIVITY AND MAY RESULT IN INJURY
OR DEATH EVEN WHEN USED WITH PROPER SAFETY PRECAUTIONS. USE
AT YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.

WARNING: RDS OFF-ROAD DIRT SCOOTER IS DIFFERENT IN MANY
WAYS. This scooter has inflatable tires, not solid tires like more basic kick
scooters might have. Jumping and hard riding places greater stresses on
tires, wheels and components. Razor recommends maximum rider weight
for performing such aggressive riding to not exceed 120 lb (54 kg) on the
RDS scooter.

This scooter was manufactured for performance and durability, but it is not
impervious to damage. Trick riding can overstress or damage any product,
including this scooter, and the rider assumes all risks associated with high­stress activity. Riders who may intend to use this scooter to ride “off road”
must be talented and experienced scooter riders able to handle the higher
levels of risk and the higher degrees of expertise associated with such riding.
Safety equipment such as helmet (with chinstrap fastened), knee pads and
elbow pads are always recommended because they may provide protection
against the most common types of impact circumstances.

WARNING: SAFE RIDING PRACTICES ARE ALWAYS IMPORTANT

Safety Reminders/Warranty ................................................................7

• Adults must assist children in the initial adjustment procedures to assemble
the scooter.

• Obey all local traffic and scootering laws and regulations.

• Watch out for pedestrians.

• Check and secure all fasteners before every ride.

• Replace worn or broken parts immediately.

• Always be sure to check tires for excessive wear or damage before riding.

• Do not exceed the tires PSI rating. Over inflation will cause a rupture.

• Do not exceed 220 lb (100 kg) under normal riding circumstances and 120 lb

(54 kg) under off-road conditions involving aggressive riding practices.

• Do not allow children under age ten (10) to use the RDS scooter. All children
and preteens should ride with adult guidance at all times.

• Rider weight does not necessarily mean a child’s size is appropriate to fit or
maintain control of the scooter.

• A parent’s decision to allow his or her child to ride this product should be
based on the child’s maturity, skill and ability to follow rules.

ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS

Adult supervision is recommended. Scooters are meant to be used only in
controlled environments free of potential traffic hazards and not on public
streets. Do not allow your child to ride a scooter in any areas where vehicle
traffic is present. Child must maintain a hold of the handlebars at all times.
Never allow more than one child at a time to ride a scooter. Never use near
steps, sloped driveways, hills, roadways, alleys or swimming pool areas.

Do not ride a scooter in wet weather. Scooters function best on solid, flat, dry
surfaces such as pavement or level ground without loose debris such as rocks
or gravel. Wet, slick or uneven and rough surfaces may impair traction and
contribute to possible accidents. Do not ride a scooter in mud, ice, puddles or
water. Never risk damaging surfaces, such as carpet or flooring, by use of a
scooter indoors. Do not ride at night or when visibility is impaired.

• Always wear safety equipment, such as helmet, knee pads and elbow
pads. Always wear a helmet when riding your scooter and keep the
chinstrap securely buckled.

• Always wear shoes.

• Ride on smooth surfaces away from motor vehicles.

• When riding off road, be careful of broken glass, sharp objects or other

debris that may puncture or damage your tires and inner tubes. Select
off-road riding locations free of such dangerous materials.

• Avoid soft patches of dirt or loose gravel while riding. Scooter may lose
traction and cause rider to fall.

• Avoid sharp bumps, drainage grates and sudden surface changes. Scooter
may suddenly stop.

• Avoid riding on wet surfaces; weather impairs traction, braking and
visibility.

• Do not ride at night.

• Brake will get hot from continuous use. Do not touch after braking.

• Avoid excessive speed associated with downhill rides.

TRICK AND OFF-ROAD RIDING PRESENTS ADDITIONAL RISKS TO
RIDERS AND EQUIPMENT: No scooter, not even this one, is impervious to

damage. Off-road and trick riding obviously increases risks of rider falls and of
product damage due to stresses, impacts or wear, and riders assume all risks
associated with high-stress activities:

• Riding in “off-road” conditions can present obstacles, surfaces and
conditions potentially more difficult to master than “ordinary” smooth or
paved surfaces.

• Check your scooter before every ride, and replace worn or broken parts
immediately.

• Trick and off-road riding requires skill and practice; it is not “automatic”.
Just because you may see people on TV, the internet or in your neighborhood
doing tricks or stunts, that does not mean you can do the same without
learning or without risk. Take your time, be careful, make progress at your
own pace and always be aware of the difficulty and risk involved in what
you are trying to accomplish.

• Always visually review off-road riding terrain before riding, in order to try
to minimize encounters with “unknown” impediments in your path without
time to react or compensate.

SAFETY WARNINGS

PROPER RIDING ATTIRE

Always ensure rider is wearing proper protective equipment, such as an
approved safety helmet. A helmet may be legally required by local law or
regulation in your area. Always wear shoes and keep shoelaces tied and out of
the way of the wheels. Never ride barefoot or in sandals.

FAILURE TO USE COMMON SENSE AND HEED THE ABOVE WARNINGS
FURTHER INCREASES RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
AND WITH APPROPRIATE AND SERIOUS ATTENTION TO SAFE OPERATION.
USE CAUTION.

WARNING: ALWAYS INSPECT SCOOTER PRIOR TO RIDING. Properly
inspecting and maintaining your scooter can reduce the risk of injury. Always
inspect your scooter before riding and regularly maintain it.

WARNING: CHECK LOCAL LAWS REGARDING SCOOTER USE. Check
local laws and regulations to see where and how you may use your Razor
scooter legally. In many states and local areas scooter riders are required
BY LAW to wear a helmet. Check local laws and regulations regarding laws
governing helmet use and scooter operation in your area.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Remove the contents from box. Inspect the contents of the box for scratches in the paint and/or dents that may have
occurred during shipping. Because your scooter was partially assembled and packed at the factory, there should not be
any problems, even if the box has a few scars or dents.
