• 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.
• Contact the retailer to be referred to an appropriate training organisation.
• Avoid high traffic or overcrowded areas and anticipate your path and speed by respecting the traffic code and watching out for pedestrians on pavements.
• Indicate your presence when approaching a pedestrian or cyclist and when you are not seen and/or heard. Remember to cross pedestrian crossings and protected areas on foot, and in all situations, take care of your physical safety and that of others. Remove any sharp edges that may have been caused by the use of the vehicle.
