SAFETY WARNINGS

AN IMPORTANT MESSAGE TO PARENTS: This manual
contains important information. For your child's safety, it is your responsibility
to review this information with your child and make sure that your child
understands all warnings, cautions, instructions and safety topics. Razor USA
recommends that you periodically review and reinforce the information in this
manual with younger riders, and that you inspect and maintain your child's
scooter to ensure their safety.
GENERAL WARNING: Scooter riding can be a hazardous
activity. Scooters can and are intended to move, and it is therefore possible
to get into dangerous situations and/or lose control and/or fall. If such
things occur you can be seriously injured or die. LIKE ANY OTHER MOVING
PRODUCT, USING A SCOOTER CAN BE A DANGEROUS ACTIVITY AND MAY
RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH EVEN WHEN USED WITH PROPER SAFETY
PRECAUTIONS. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.
• Always wear safety equipment, such as helmet, knee pads and elbow
pads. Always wear a helmet when riding your scooter and keep the
chinstrap securely buckled.
• Always wear shoes.
• A parent's decision to allow his or her child to ride this product should be
based on the child's maturity, skill and ability to follow rules.
• This scooter was manufactured for performance and durability, but it is not
impervious to damage. Trick riding can overstress or damage any product,
including this scooter, and the rider assumes all risks associated with high-
stress activity.
• Ride on smooth, paved surfaces away from motor vehicles.
• Avoid sharp bumps, drainage grates and sudden surface changes. Scooter
may suddenly stop.
• Avoid streets and surfaces with water, sand, gravel, dirt, leaves and other
debris. Wet weather impairs traction, braking and visibility.
• Do not ride at night or in reduced visibility conditions.
• Brake will get hot from continuous use. Do not touch after braking.
• Avoid excessive speed associated with downhill rides.
• Adults must assist children in the initial adjustment procedures to
assemble the scooter.
• Obey all local traffic and scootering laws and regulations.
• Watch out for pedestrians.
• Check and secure all fasteners before every ride.
• Replace worn or broken parts immediately.
• Do not exceed 220 lb (100 kg) total weight on the Freestyle Sport scooters
and the Beast scooter. Do not exceed 143 lb (65 kg) on the Grom scooter.
• Do not allow children under age eight (8) to use the Freestyle Sport
scooters and under age six (6) for the Sport scooters. Children and preteens
should ride with adult guidance at all times.
• Rider weight does not necessarily mean rider's size is appropriate to fit or
maintain control of the scooter.

ACCEPTABLE RIDING PRACTICES AND CONDITIONS
Direct parental supervision is required. Scooters are meant to be used only
in controlled environments free of potential traffic hazards and not on public
streets. Do not allow your child to ride a scooter in any areas where vehicle
traffic is present. Child must maintain a hold of the handlebars at all times.
Never allow more than one rider at a time to ride a scooter. Never use near
steps, sloped driveways, hills, roadways, alleys or swimming pool areas.
Do not ride a scooter in wet weather. Scooters are intended for use on solid,
flat, clean and dry surfaces such as pavement or level ground without loose
debris such as rocks or gravel. Wet, slick or uneven and rough surfaces may
impair braking traction, and contribute to possible accidents. Do not ride a
scooter in mud, ice, puddles or water. Avoid excessive speeds that can be
associated with downhill rides. Never risk damaging surfaces such as carpet
or flooring by use of a scooter indoors. Do not ride at night or when visibility
is impaired.
Aggressive riding reduces your ability to maneuver and control. Take
necessary precautions and practice in a safe area.
You will see people on TV and videos doing tricks or stunts. These are people
who have been practicing a long time and accept the risks of trick riding
activity. Do not assume that you can attempt to do the same tricks without
great risk.
PROPER RIDING ATTIRE
Always ensure child is wearing proper protective equipment, such as an
approved safety helmet. A helmet may be legally required by local law or
regulation in your area. Always wear shoes and keep shoelaces tied and out
of the way of the wheels. Never ride barefooted or in sandals.
FAILURE TO USE COMMON SENSE AND HEED THE ABOVE WARNINGS
FURTHER INCREASES RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
AND WITH APPROPRIATE AND SERIOUS ATTENTION TO SAFE OPERATION.
USE CAUTION.
WARNING: ALWAYS INSPECT SCOOTER PRIOR TO RIDING. Properly
inspecting and maintaining your scooter can reduce the risk of injury. Always
inspect your scooter before riding and regularly maintain it.
WARNING: CHECK LOCAL LAWS REGARDING SCOOTER USE.
Check local laws and regulations to see where and how you may use
your Razor scooter legally. In many states and local areas scooter riders
are required BY LAW to wear a helmet. Check local laws and regulations
regarding laws governing helmet use and scooter operation in your area.
