HEADLINE SAFETY WARNINGS
Exceeding the weight limit could injure the rider and damage the
EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP. Rider weight alone also does not
necessarily mean a person's size is appropriate to fit or maintain control
of the EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP. Keep this product away from
small children and remember that this product is not a toy and is intended
for use only by persons who are, at a minimum, completely comfortable and
competent while operating the product.
Razor recommends that children under the age of 16 not be permitted to
use this product. This recommendation is based not just on age or weight
or height; it reflects consideration of expected maturity and skills as well
as physical size. The recommended rider age of 16 years or older is only an
estimate and can be affected by the rider's size, weight, or skills – not every
rider 16 years old or older will be suited to the product. Certainly, any rider
unable to fit comfortably on the EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP should
not attempt to ride it, but a parent's decision to allow his or her teen to
ride this product should be based on the teen's maturity, skill, and
ability to follow rules. Razor emphasizes that adults are strongly
advised not to disregard Razor's recommendations or permit
younger children to ride the EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP.
Keep this product away from small children and remember that it
is not a toy and is intended for use only by persons who are, at a
minimum, completely comfortable and competent while operating.
Persons with any mental or physical conditions that may make them
susceptible to injury, impair their physical dexterity or mental capabilities
to recognize, understand, and follow safety instructions and to be able to
understand the hazards inherent in the use of any ride-on product, should not
use or be permitted to use products inappropriate for their abilities. Persons
with heart conditions, head, back or neck ailments (or prior surgeries to these
areas of the body), or pregnant women, should be cautioned not to operate
such products.
DO NOT EXCEED THE WEIGHT LIMIT OF 220 lb (100 kg). Rider weight
does not necessarily mean a person's size is appropriate to fit or
maintain control of the EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP.
CHECK AND MAINTAIN PRODUCT CONDITIONS
Before use, check to confirm that covers and guards are in place and in
serviceable condition. Check that the brake is functioning properly, that
the tires are inflated properly and have sufficient tread remaining. The
product should be maintained and repaired in accordance with the
manufacturer's specifications, using only the manufacturer's authorized
replacement parts, and should not be modified from the manufacturer's
original design and configuration.
ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS
Do not activate the throttle unless you are on the EcoSmart Metro HD/
EcoSmart SUP and in a safe, outdoor environment suitable for riding.
Once the throttle is activated the EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP will
move forward.
The normal powered top speed of this product will be approximately
15.5 mph (25 km/h), which can be affected by conditions, such as rider
weight, inclines and battery charge level. Avoid excessive speeds that can be
associated with downhill rides.
Be careful and know your limitations. Risk of injury increases as the degree
of riding difficulty increases. The rider assumes all risk associated with
aggressive riding activities.
Maintain a hold on the handlebars at all times. Do not touch the brake or
motor on your scooter when in use or immediately after riding, as these parts
can become very hot.
Ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could catch your
wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Be careful to avoid
pedestrians, skaters, skateboards, scooters, bikes, children or animals who
may enter your path, and respect the rights and property of others.
The EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP is intended for use on flat, dry
surfaces, such as pavement or level ground, without loose debris, such as
sand, leaves, rocks or gravel. Wet, slick, bumpy, uneven or rough surfaces
may impair traction and contribute to possible accidents. Do not ride your
product in mud, ice, puddles or water. Watch out for potential obstacles that
could catch your wheel or force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Avoid
sharp bumps, drainage grates, and sudden surface changes.
Do not attempt or do stunts or tricks. The EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart
SUP is not made to withstand abuse from misuse, such as jumping, curb
grinding or any other type of stunts. Racing, stunt riding, or other maneuvers
also enhance risk of loss of control, or may cause uncontrolled rider actions
or reactions.
Never allow more than one person at a time to ride the product.
Riding at night or when visibility is limited increases risks of accident or
injury. Should the EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP scooter be ridden
in such conditions, use of lights (not included) and additional measures to
increase rider visibility and scooter conspicuity are advised.
Never use near steps or swimming pools.
Do not allow hands, feet, hair, body parts, clothing, or similar articles to come
in contact with moving parts or wheels while the motor is engaged.
Do not touch electric motor or brake when in use or immediately after riding.
Never use headphones or a cell phone to talk or text when riding.
Never ride your product while under the influence of drugs
or alcohol.
Never hitch a ride with a vehicle.
The EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP electric scooter can operate more
quietly than other motorized products may operate. Use care when in
the vicinity of pedestrians or others who may have difficulty hearing your
approach. Use handbell (not included) to sound warnings when appropriate.
Never risk damaging surfaces such as carpet or flooring by use of an
EcoSmart Metro HD/EcoSmart SUP electric scooter indoors.
PROPER RIDING ATTIRE
Always wear proper protective equipment, such as an approved safety
helmet (with chin strap securely buckled), elbow pads, and kneepads. A
helmet may be legally required by local law or regulation in your area. A
long-sleeved shirt, and long pants are recommended. Always wear shoes and
keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of the wheels and motor. Never ride
barefooted or in sandals.
USING THE CHARGER
The charger supplied with the product should be regularly examined for
damage to the cord, plug, enclosure and other parts. In the event of such
damage, the product must not be charged until the charger has been repaired
or replaced.

Do not operate charger near flammable materials.
