Congratulations on your new scooter! Getting started can be a bit intimidating, but don't worry - we're here to help. Here's how to get your scooter going:
1. Step on the deck: Place one foot on the deck of the scooter, making sure it's centered and stable.
2. Kick off: With your other foot, give yourself a small push off the ground. This will help you gain some momentum and get moving.
3. Reach 5km/h: Once you've started moving, keep kicking until you reach a speed of 5km/h. This is the minimum speed required for the throttle to become active.
4. Accelerate: Once you've hit 5km/h, you can start using the throttle to accelerate. Simply twist the throttle grip on the handlebar to increase your speed.
5. Brake: To slow down or stop, use the brake lever on the handlebar. Squeeze it gently to slow down, or pull it all the way back to come to a complete stop.
Remember to always wear a helmet and other protective gear when riding your scooter. It's also a good idea to familiarize yourself with your local laws and regulations regarding scooter use. With a little practice, you'll be zipping around on your scooter in no time!
