• Always ride at a speed that’s appropriate for the conditions. Higher speed means higher risk
• Ensure brakes and motor cut off switch are working prior to every ride
• Ensure nothing is loose (ie bolts, wheels, and handlebar) and everything is secured on the scooter
prior to every ride
• Always keep both hands on the handlebars
• Do not operate if you are sleepy, sedated or while under the inuence of drugs and/or alcohol
• Do not accelerate around corner or going downhill as you may gain too much speed and loose
control
• Do not ride on any road with bumps higher than 2cm or through puddle of water which is deeper
than 2cm
• At high speed be cautious of moving handlebar or turning too quickly as you may loose control
• Always keep the brakes covered, and be prepared to stop in case of emergency
• Apply both brakes simultaneously and smoothly
• Make sure you clearly understand that it is very dicult for any vehicle to notice your presence,
ALWAYS assume that you cannot be seen and dress in bright colours, reective gear and use
bright lights
• Ensure those around you are aware you are approaching by ringing your bell and verbally address
pedestrians when passing by, or when riding in areas where wildlife are located
• Wet weather impairs traction, braking and visibility, both for the cyclist and for other vehicles
sharing the road. The risk of an accident is dramatically increased in wet conditions
• Reectors are not a substitute for required lights. Riding at dawn, at dusk, at night or at other
times of poor visibility without adequate lighting is dangerous and may result in serious injury
• Never ride with headphones. They mask trac sounds and emergency vehicles sirens, distract
you from concentrating on what is going on around you. Headphone wires can tangle in the
moving parts of the scooter, causing you to lose control
• Wear proper attire, including bright clothing, protective glasses, and sturdy shoes. Never wear a
loose-tting dress or long dress when riding as it can get caught in the moving parts and cause
serious injury or even death
• Always wear an approved helmet and ensure it ts according to the manufacturers’ instructions.
Ensure your helmet meets the latest certication standards and is appropriate for the type of
riding you do and if there are any special requirements for riding an electric bike
• At temperatures below -10°C the motor grease might be too stiff for high-power rides. Give the
motor some low speed and low power spins and warm up the gears before going full power
