While Riding
WARNING
NEVER lean your body against the Operation Bar. Doing so may result in
a crash and/or injury to yourself or the PTR. Always keep your body at
least 5 cm (2 in) from the Operation Bar.
• Do not add more than 5 kg (11 lb) in weight to the Operation Bar.
This can affect the self-balancing functionality of the PTR.
• Avoid slippery surfaces, loose materials, steep slopes, and
obstacles. If you cannot avoid a slippery surface, loose material,
steep slope, or obstacle, then you must step off and use Power
Assistance Mode to move across it. Be especially careful when
riding in confined spaces or near obstructions.
• Do not ride where prohibited by local laws or regulations.
• Do not ride in locations with holes/cracks, slopes of 15 degrees or
above, or pooled water more than 3 cm (1.2 in) deep.
• Keep relaxed during riding with your knees and elbows bent slightly
and your head raised.
• Remember, when you are on a PTR you are 20 cm (7.9 in) or more
taller than usual, so watch your head as you approach a door
frame, a door, tree branches, or other low barriers above you.
• Do not ride on stairs. Do not ride on the road shoulder or near curbs
where one wheel could drop off the path.
• Do not try to "jump" the PTR off the ground in any situation (such
as riding over a deceleration strip or speed bump).
• Do not ride on the motorway, highways, or streets.
• The PTR is for one rider only. Do not ride double or carry any
passengers. Do not carry a child in your arms or in a child carrier
