Maximizing Range
Maximum range distances are provided in Table 2 on page 5. The
range of your Segway PT is affected by many variables, including:
z Terrain: Riding on smooth, flat terrain improves range, and riding
on hilly terrain and unpaved surfaces reduces range.
z Speed and Riding Style: Riding at a consistent, moderate
speed will increase range while frequent starting, stopping,
acceleration, and deceleration reduces range.
z Tire Inflation Pressure: Riding with tire pressures below the
specified limit reduces range.
z Rider Weight and Cargo: Lighter riders with less cargo
experience better range than heavier riders with more cargo.
z Temperature: Storing, charging, and riding in temperatures
close to the median of the recommended temperature range
improves range. Riding in colder temperatures reduces range
significantly.
z Battery Condition: Properly charged and maintained Batteries
provide greater range. Old, cold, heavily used, or poorly
maintained Batteries provide less range.
z Wind: Riding with a tailwind increases range. Riding against a
headwind reduces range.
