Riding Safety

1. The Ninebot S is a recreational product. Before mastering riding skills, you need to practice. Neither Ninebot (means
Ninebot (Beijing) Tech Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries and affiliates) nor Segway Inc. is responsible for any injuries or
damage caused by a rider's inexperience or failure to follow the instructions in this document.
2. Please understand that you can reduce the risk by following all the instructions and warnings in this manual, but you
cannot eliminate all the risks. Remember that whenever you ride the Ninebot S you risk injury or death from loss of
control, collisions, and falls. When entering into public spaces always comply with the local laws and regulations. As with
other vehicles, faster speeds require longer braking distance. Sudden braking on smooth surfaces could lead to wheel
slip, loss of balance, or falls. Be cautious and always keep a safe distance between you and other people or vehicles when
riding. Be alert and slow down when entering unfamiliar areas.
3. Always wear a helmet when riding. Use an approved bicycle or skateboard helmet that fits properly with the chin strap in
place, and provides protection for the back of your head.
4. Do not attempt your first ride in any area where you might encounter children, pedestrians, pets, vehicles, bicycles, or
other obstacles and potential hazards.
5. Respect pedestrians by always yielding the right of way. Pass on the left whenever possible. When approaching a
pedestrian from the front, stay to the right and slow down. Avoid startling pedestrians. When approaching from behind,
announce yourself and slow down to walking speed when passing. Please obey local traffic laws and regulations if
situation is different.
6. In places without laws and regulations governing self-balancing electric vehicles, comply with the safety guidelines
outlined in this manual. Neither Ninebot nor Segway Inc. is responsible for any property damage, personal injury/death,
accidents, or legal disputes caused by violations of the safety instructions.
7. Do not allow anyone to ride your Ninebot S on his/her own unless they have carefully read this manual, watched the
safety video, and followed the New Rider Tutorial on the Segway-Ninebot App. The safety of new riders is your
responsibility. Assist new riders until they are comfortable with the basic operation of the Ninebot S. Make sure each new
rider wears a helmet and other protective gear.
8. Before each ride check for loose fasteners, damaged components, and low tire pressure. If the Ninebot S makes
abnormal sounds or signals an alarm, immediately stop riding. Diagnose your Ninebot S via the Segway-Ninebot App and
call your dealer/distributor for service.

9. Be alert! Scan both far ahead and in front of your Ninebot S — your eyes are your best tool for safely avoiding obstacles
and low traction surfaces (including, but not limited to, wet ground, loose sand, loose gravel, and ice).
10. To reduce risk of injury, you must read and follow all "CAUTION" and "WARNING" notices in this document. Do not ride
at an unsafe speed. Under no circumstance should you ride on roads with motor vehicles. The manufacturer
recommends riders be 16+ years old. Always follow these safety instructions:
A. People who should not ride the Ninebot S include:
i. Anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
ii. Anyone who suffers from disease that puts them at risk if they engage in strenuous physical activity.
iii. Anyone who has problems with balance or with motor skills that would interfere with their ability to maintain
balance.
iv. Anyone whose height or weight is outside the stated limits (see Specifications).
v. Pregnant women.
B. Riders under the age of 16 years old should ride under adult supervision.
C. Comply with local laws and regulations when riding this product. Do not ride where prohibited by local laws.
D. To ride safely, you must be able to clearly see what is in front of you and you must be clearly visible to others.
E. Do not ride in the snow, in the rain, or on roads which are wet, muddy, icy, or that are slippery for any reason. Do not
ride over obstacles (sand, loose gravel, or sticks). Doing so could result in a loss of balance or traction and could
cause a fall.
F. Do not accelerate or decelerate suddenly. Do not accelerate when the Ninebot S tilts back or sounds an alarm. Do
not attempt to override the speed limiter.
11. Do not attempt to charge your Ninebot S if it, the charger, or the power outlet is wet.
12. As with any electronic device, use a surge protector when charging to help protect your Ninebot S from damage due to
power surges and voltage spikes. Only use the Ninebot supplied charger. Do not use a charger from any other product.
13. Use only Ninebot or Ninebot approved parts and accessories. Do not modify your Ninebot S. Modifications to your
Ninebot S could interfere with the operation of the Ninebot S, could result in serious injury and/or damage, and could
void the Limited Warranty.
14. Do not sit on the steering bar. Doing so could result in serious injury and/or damage to your Ninebot S.
