Do you have a question about the Eswing ES6 Comfort and is the answer not in the manual?
The ES6 is a self-balancing, two-wheel personal transporter designed for dynamic stability. It uses a built-in precision gyroscope and a central microprocessor to calculate and execute commands, driving the motor to maintain balance. This device is a new type of personal transporter, often referred to as an electric personal mobility device. It is equipped with two wheels, has a width similar to an adult's shoulder, and weighs 43kg, powered by a battery. The ES6 does not require a brake or throttle lever; instead, it moves forward when the rider leans forward and stops when the rider stands straight. This dynamic balance system allows for high precision, low cost, quiet operation, and convenience. A full charge provides approximately 3 hours of operation.
The ES6 series includes two models: ES6 (Comfort) and ES6+ (Turbo). The ES6 (Comfort) offers high cost-effectiveness with a maximum speed of up to 18km/h, APP remote control via mobile Bluetooth, and standard accessories including a parking foot, parking attachment, InfoKey controller, and headlamp lighting. It provides advanced performance, competitive pricing, and practical features. The ES6+ (Turbo) builds upon the Comfort model with additional features such as a high-value battery for a cruise range of up to 30km/h, a built-in GPS module with GPRS data for one year, an elegantly designed bag, and RFID card swipe to start. This model offers higher power and cruise capabilities, along with the ability to monitor scooter positioning for rental purposes.
To ensure safe operation, users must read and follow all instructions and warnings in the manual and watch safety videos. Good judgment is essential when riding. The ES6 is a self-balancing device, and its balancing technology cannot prevent injury if not ridden according to the manual. Riding the ES6 carries a risk of death or serious injury from loss of control, collisions, and falls. Before initial use, assembly may be required, and the battery should be charged for at least 5 hours. It is crucial to check that all parts are tightened and undamaged, and to wear protective gear such as a helmet, elbow guards, and knee pads. Related documents, including PDF manuals, safety videos, and app software, are available for download from the manufacturer's website.
The ES6 features various operating modes:
The Smart InfoKey Controller is a rechargeable device with information display and control functions. It can be used to control the ES6 and fits into a dock on the handlebar. It has three buttons: Power key, Lock key, and Function key, each supporting long press (over 2 seconds), short press (under 1.5 seconds), and combination press (2 keys together for over 2 seconds). The controller displays working status and reminders such as speed, mileage, and battery remaining. Icons indicate connection status, trouble reminders, scooter battery remaining, scooter status, locked status, balance mode, and beginner mode.
The signal indicator is an LED interface that shows the ES6's working mode. Icons include Bluetooth connection, manned standing on, power assistant mode, and beginner mode (limit 6Km/h, low steering speed). A vignette indicates standby (blue outer circle flashes) or loading/assistant mode (outer circle turns clockwise). A battery icon shows 5 grids and gauges when charging. A warning mark indicates a failure in ES6. A GPS icon indicates the built-in GPS is active. The ES6 also has a built-in speaker for voice prompts, which can be turned on/off or switched between English/Chinese via the smartphone app.
The ES6 can be connected and controlled via a smartphone app (for iPhone 4S/iPad 3/iPod Touch 5 or above, and Android 4.3 or above with Bluetooth 4.0). After downloading and installing the app, users can search for and connect to the ES6. The app provides an "Intelligent dashboard," "vehicle information," "track review," and settings. The default password is 666666. For ES6+ Turbo versions, built-in GPS and GPRS allow users to track the scooter's positioning. Users can check the ES6's status and location via smartphone messages or by logging into an internet platform.
RFID cards can be used to control the ES6, turning it on/off or pairing with the InfoKey controller. The ES6 supports ISO14443 standard RFID cards. To start, place the RFID card near the signal indicator board. Additional RFID cards can be added, with the ES6 remembering the latest three. An Administrator card can be used to communicate with the InfoKey controller for pairing.
The ES6 has a USB charging port at the back of the mainframe, providing 5V/1A current for charging the InfoKey controller or other USB devices with input less than 150mA. The charging process involves finding the port, connecting the charger, and plugging it into an AC supply. A red LED indicates normal charging, while a green LED indicates a full charge. Some ES6 models are equipped with a parking stand, which can be released when getting off the scooter. The parking stand should only be used in off, lock, or standby modes to prevent improper operation and potential damage or falls.
Safety is paramount when riding the ES6. Users must understand and comply with local traffic rules, wear protective gear, and check battery status and the ES6 for any loose or damaged parts before each ride. Riding under the influence of alcohol or drugs is prohibited. The ES6 should not be used in places not allowed by law or in dangerous areas such as pits, fissures, steep slopes (25 degrees or above), or deep water (over 10cm). Riders should maintain a distance of at least 5cm from the operation bar and be aware of their increased height (20cm or more) to avoid hitting overhead barriers.
Prohibited actions include riding upstairs or downstairs, lifting the ES6 off the ground, riding on road shoulders or stairs with one wheel, riding on motorways, riding with two or more persons (especially with a baby), taking both hands off the operation bar, allowing young (under 14) or aged (over 65) individuals to ride alone, or allowing pregnant, excessively drinking, mentally disordered, heart disease, or limited action ability individuals to ride. It should not be ridden in unsafe environments, especially those prone to fire or explosion. Backward riding at high speed, sharp turns while riding backward, making phone calls, and riding in poor weather or road conditions (rain, snow, slippery surfaces) are also prohibited.
For safe riding, users should maintain a moderate speed, keep a safe distance from pedestrians and vehicles, and be ready to stop at any time. Good riding manners, avoiding sudden acceleration or braking, and respecting pedestrians' right of way are important. When passing pedestrians, slow down and pass on the left. In crowds, slow down and match pedestrian speed. In dim environments, slow down, be cautious, and use headlights. Riders should remain relaxed with knees and elbows slightly bent and head raised. Backward riding is generally dangerous, except for short distances to avoid barriers.
The ES6 has active safety protection measures, including automatic speed limitation in cases of excessive speed (4-12km/h in limit speed, 18-22km/h in balance mode). The leansteer will generate pushback force to prevent acceleration. Overloading or prolonged use on slopes will trigger an intelligent safety warning, and the foot mat will recline to prompt the rider to get off. In cases of critically low battery power (under 10%), riders should get off immediately and charge the ES6.
Internal fault detection triggers an intelligent safety warning. If an alarm sounds after power-on, it may indicate a low battery. If faults persist, contact an authorized service provider. The smartphone app's "Vehicle information" function can help identify and resolve problems.
Learning to ride the ES6 should begin in a flat, open area of at least 16 square meters (4m x 4m), free from obstacles. It is recommended to receive instruction from an experienced person and wear protective gear.
The ES6 has a speed limit function. After starting, users can select "beginner mode" via the InfoKey controller, which limits speed and displays a heart icon. The limit speed can be adjusted via the smartphone app. In power assistant mode, activated by a short press of the Function key, the ES6 will move forward/backward or turn gently according to hand movements on the leansteer bar. This mode is recommended for navigating bumps, stairs, or uneven terrain. When in assistance mode, the leansteer must be held to guide the ES6's movement; leaving it to move freely can cause it to fall or be damaged.
The ES6 can be locked by pressing the "Lock" key on the InfoKey controller after getting off. This secures the scooter. When locked, it will give voice prompts if touched or operated. While locking prevents easy dragging, it does not stop a thief from carrying it away. Therefore, it is best to store the ES6 in a safe place. The locking function is useful for temporary parking to prevent accidental movement or damage.
Maintenance is crucial for optimal performance. The ES6 should be cleaned after use with a soft cloth and water. Tires and fenders can be flushed with a household shower hose (water pressure less than 1MPa/145PSI). After hosing, dry the ES6 and store it in a ventilated, dry, and cool place indoors to prevent rust and aging. High-pressure hosing or soaking in water is prohibited. Alcohol, gasoline, kerosene, acetone, or other corrosive chemicals should not be used for cleaning.
Battery pack maintenance is essential for extending its life.
The ES6 uses high-strength anti-loose screws. When installing, follow specific rules: mount screws in staggered order, do not fully tighten at first, and then tighten all screws. Regularly check wheel hubs, leansteer, battery, fenders, tread plate shell, and control panel shell for loose, dropped, or damaged parts.
Tyre pressure should be maintained between 0.8-1.5 Kg/cm² (80-150Kpa), with a maximum of 2.5Kg/cm² (250Kpa). Higher pressure reduces friction but increases damping, while lower pressure reduces damping but decreases cruise range and expedites tire abrasion. Abraded or punctured tires should be replaced promptly. ES6 tires are specialized and should be replaced at an ES6 store or by changing the entire wheel system.
The standard leansteer frame is suitable for riders 150-190cm tall. A leg-control leansteer frame can be chosen for turning with legs. To lift and move the ES6:
The ES6 inner structure is precise, and self-disassembly will affect riding safety and void after-sale service. Only authorized service technicians should perform repairs. Regular maintenance and checking are necessary for safe riding.
