GENERAL INFORMATION | READ THIS BEFORE YOUR FIRST RIDE
SAFE OPERATING TIPS
•
Even if you are an experienced scooter rider, all riders should read and understand this manual before using an electric scooter. For your
safety and to avoid serious injury or death, please closely review the following safety tips for safe operation of your GEN3 Electric Scooter.
• Always wear shoes, a helmet and knee/elbow pads when riding this product. Approved helmets in the U.S. must meet the U.S. Consumer Product
Safety Commission standard. Helmets sold in Canada are certified by CSA (Canadian Standards Association), CPSC (Consumer Product Safety
Commission), Snell or ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials). Failure to wear a helmet when riding may result in serious injury or death.
•
Inspect the scooter before each use, making sure the correct setup and tightening is done on your scooter before using it for the first
time. Check the battery level, brake function, handlebar grips, tightening and lubricating components regularly.
•
Check the operation of the brake motor cutoff before each ride. The brake system, when properly functioning cuts off power to the
motor whenever the brakes are squeezed.
• The boost function on electric scooters can be unfamiliar for first time riders. Ensure you understand and are prepared for the motor to engage.
•
Always use the lightest boost level, until you are comfortable and confident with the scooter.
•
Users must travel at speeds appropriate for the usage area, riding conditions, and experience level. The faster the scooter is traveling,
the longer it takes to stop. On a smooth surface, the scooter may slip, lose balance, and even result in a fall. Thus it is crucial that you use
caution, keep proper speed and distance, especially so when you are unfamiliar with the environment.
• Off-road scootering presents varied terrain on which The Verve and The Verve Pro are not designed or tested to perform.
•
Electric scooters are not intended for large jumps or stunts of any kind. Scooter frames and parts have limitations, and extreme riding
should not be performed.
•
In the event of a collision or presumed damage, you must consider your scooter unsafe to ride until a comprehensive inspection of all
components, functions, and operations of the scooter can be made by a certified, reputable mechanic.
•
Any aftermarket changes or modifications to your scooter could void the warranty and create an unsafe riding experience.
•
Take extra precaution when riding in wet conditions or on a smooth surface. Decrease speeds and prepare for increased braking
distance. Handlebar and scooter deck will be slippery in wet conditions.
•
It is your responsibility to understand the local regulations, including traffic laws, for operating this product in the area(s) where you ride.
•
NEVER operate your scooter when you are under the influence of alcohol or drugs, including prescribed or over the counter medications.
•
Ride at night only if necessary. Wear reflective clothing; if possible, only scooter down roads with ample street lighting. Ensure you have
reflectors and lights as required by your regional vehicle laws.
