SOMMAIRE

Read these instructions thoroughly before using the device. Keep this instruction manual for future reference or new users.

• Cecotec shall not be liable for any problem caused by misuse of the device or non-compliance of both the traffic rules and the instructions in this manual.
• This vehicle is approved for use by one person at a time only. Do not carry more passengers. It aims at offering an environmentally friendly, sustainable, and efficient electric-transport alternative for short distances in urban areas. Be sure to comply with local traffic regulations when using the device. Ride in a civilised manner and pay attention to people and obstacles around you to prevent accidents.
• Remember that, if you follow the instructions and warnings in this manual, as well as the traffic rules in your area, you will reduce the risks, but you will not completely prevent them.
• Remember that the higher the speed, the greater the braking distance. Remember that hard braking can cause slips and falls.
• Wear protective equipment (such as helmet, goggles, gloves, and suitable elbow and knee pads) to prevent or reduce the risk of injury in the event of falls or accidents.
• Always use appropriate, tight, rubber-soled footwear.
• Make sure that both you and other users of the device read and understand these instructions. Make sure all users know how to make proper use of the device.
• Make sure the wheels are not damaged and all parts and components of the device are correctly installed before each use. If you notice that any of the parts is loose, hear strange noises, or the device does not work correctly, stop using

it immediately and contact the official Cecotec Technical Support Service.

• Do not use the product in a way that could damage or harm other people or objects.
• Do not modify the product in any way to avoid altering its performance and damaging it. Do not use any unapproved accessories or parts. Any unauthorised change will void the device warranty.
• Do not use the device under the rain to avoid damage and accidents.
• The device is not intended to be used by children under the age of 15. It can be used by children from 15 years of age if they are continuously supervised and have the documentation required. Consult the legal regulations in force in your region.
• This device can be used by children aged 15 and above and persons with reduced physical, sensory, or mental capabilities or lack of experience and knowledge, as long as they have been given supervision or instruction concerning the use of the device in a safe way, understand the hazards involved, and have all the documentation required in their region. Do not allow children to play with the device.
• Be sure to train children over the age of 15 on how to accelerate, decelerate, brake, and behave while driving. Children must be accompanied by an adult when reading this manual.
• Supervise children to prevent them from playing with the device. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is being used by or near children.

• Make sure that the mains voltage matches the voltage stated on the device marking and that the wall outlet is earthed before charging the device.
• Check the charger cable and casing regularly for visible damage. Do not use the device if the charger cable, socket, or structure are damaged, do not work properly, or have fallen, and contact the official Cecotec Technical Support Service immediately. If the power cable is damaged, it must be replaced with a special cable or set to be supplied by the official Cecotec Technical Support Service. The power cable is to be properly discarded.
• When you wish to disconnect the charger, pull from the plug, never the cable. Do not touch the device or its plug with wet hands.
• Check wheel pressure before every use. Remember that a low pressure may reduce the battery life.
• WARNING! Regularly check the condition of components or parts subject to wear or fatigue, such as the main frame, fork, wheels, brakes, etc. This will allow you to detect cracks or damage in high-stress areas that may indicate the component's service life has been exceeded and it needs to be replaced. Regular maintenance of the electric scooter and its components will extend its service life. Periodically check the tightness of the bolted parts, especially the wheel axles, the folding mechanism, the steering system, and the braking system.
• Use this device only with the power supply unit provided and with an original and compatible Cecotec battery.

• WARNING: to recharge the battery, use only the power supply unit provided with the device, reference GJS150-5760200.

3. ASSEMBLY

Unfolding the handlebar. Fig. 3

1 The vehicle is delivered folded and with the handlebars removed.
2 First, unscrew washer 1 and remove screw 2.
3 Position the handlebar and insert screw 2 with locknut 1.
4 To place the handlebar stem properly in position, raise the handlebar and press closing spring 3.
5 Insert the locking lever into the corresponding slot and turn until properly locked. NOTE: to fold the handlebar again, follow the reverse the procedure.

Assembling the handlebar grips. Fig. 4-5

With the handlebar upright, the grips will remain suspended as shown in Figure 4.
1 Take the left grip and pull it upwards until pushed into position.
2 Repeat the above step with the right grip.

Adjusting the handlebar height. Fig. 6

1 Turn the adjustment knob counterclockwise and adjust the handlebar to the desired height.
2 Once set to the desired height, turn the adjustment knob clockwise to lock it in place. Make sure the handlebar is firmly fixed.

Battery and motor

Both the battery and the motor come already installed and connected. To access any of these parts, lift the deck. To activate the electrical circuit, install the fuse provided.

Installing the saddle. Fig. 7

1 Insert the saddle into the saddle post fitting it snugly into the groove.
2 Screw the saddle in position on each side until completely fixed.

Adjusting the height of the saddle

To adjust the saddle height, unlock lever 1 and lower or raise the saddle to the desired position. Once the saddle is set to the desired height, lock lever 1 again.

Adjusting the front and rear brakes. Fig. 8

• Both brakes require periodic adjustment.
• The brakes should be about 5–6 mm away from the handlebar grip.
• Stand on the vehicle to check the distance between the handlebar grip and the brake. If the brakes exceed the recommended distance, turn the brake washer (A) to adjust it.
• To adjust the brake cable tension, adjust the screw (B) on the rear wheel. This will allow the wheel to turn easily when the brake is not being used and will also immediately bring the vehicle to a stop when the brake lever is pressed.

WARNING: after each adjustment, tighten the locknut.
