The ZINGO X200 is not intended to be used on public roads where there are cars, buses, taxis or any other licensed motor
vehicles. Make sure to familiarize yourself with the trac rules and regulations in your area to determine where it is safe for you
to ride your scooter.
Riding the ZINGO X200 can result in serious injury or even death regardless of the ability of the rider, any factory fault, any
precautions taken or conditions in which they (the rider) were riding in. Make sure to check that all nuts and bolts are tightly
fastened before use, that your brakes are in proper working condition, and that you are both able and competent to handle
this scooter. Parents should be made aware that this scooter is not for children under the age of 10, and further still, that riders
above this age should show a suitable degree of awareness, skill and ability to handle a ride-on of this nature.
Do not exceed the weight limit of 70kg. The rider’s weight does not necessarily mean that their size is appropriate to maintain
control of the scooter.
RIDING CONDITIONS, METHOD AND APPROPRIATE APPAREL
Make sure to use protective gear in the form of elbow and knee pads as well as a helmet and appropriate footwear. Gloves and
goggles are recommended.
Riders will become accustomed to riding the ZINGO X200 over time. Accidents can occur when given to someone who has
never ridden a scooter before. Exercise caution when allowing a rst-time rider to get onto the ZINGO X200. The rider should
be instructed on how to ride the ZINGO X200 (see full details on “HOW TO RIDE YOUR ZINGO X200” below).
Use caution when riding, and make sure to always be aware of your surroundings so as to avoid any pedestrians, other riders,
animals or xed obstacles that may cause you, or you may cause, any injury. The ZINGO X200 is not designed to withstand any
extreme manoeuvres. Do not attempt to perform any tricks, wheelies, bunny hops or any other extreme manoeuvres on the
ZINGO X200. Evidence of such abuse will render your warranty void.
Assess riding conditions before making use of the ZINGO X200, and do not ride through any gravel, mud, water, sand or on any
o-road surface. Do not ride your ZINGO X200 in the rain, or through any adverse weather conditions. The electrical and drive
components could be damaged by riding through the aforementioned elements or surfaces and will render your warranty void.
HOW TO RIDE YOUR ZINGO X200
The ZINGO X200 has a variable speed accelerator (throttle) like that found on a motorcycle. You can control your speed
precisely by slowly opening the throttle. Opening the throttle further will result in increased speed. Do not snap the throttle
open suddenly as this will rapidly project the scooter forward. This may result in you losing control of the ZINGO X200 and can
result in damage to property or cause you serious injury.
Before turningthe ZINGO X200 on make sure that the scooter is aimed towards an open space with nothing in front of you.
Put one foot on the deck and hold the handlebars rmly. Familiarize yourself with the brakes before switching on your ZINGO
X200. Hold the accelerator rmly and slowly twist it open. As the scooter starts to move forward and you have enough speed
to balance, place your second foot onto the deck. Slowly open the throttle until you get to the required speed for the conditions in which you are riding, whilst maintaining a speed suitable for your ability. Build your speed up gradually as you become
familiar with the scooter. Practise using the brakes while you are going slowly. Avoid opening the throttle to its maximum until
you are well accustomed to the scooters handling and braking. Fully opening the throttle will result in your batteries
discharging rapidly, and your range will be adversely aected.
