SAFETY INFORMATION Section 3 : Safety Information It is our sincere hope that you can enjoy your Hoverzon safely. Please read the following guidelines carefully. 3.1 General Guidelines • Before riding, make sure the tires are undamaged and mechanical parts are not loose. If anything abnormal, please contact customer service immediately and do not operate the board.
• The board will not function if there is too much vibration caused by unstable terrain. • If the battery life is too low or if the battery itself is overworked, the Hoverzon will enter into power off mode to protect the battery.
Page 20
• Do not start, stop, or turn abruptly. • If using a Hoverzon near other Hoverzon boards, keep a safe distance to avoid collisions. • Never place anything on the pedals except your feet. Doing so could interfere with the sensors and/or balancing system and may allow the board to travel on its own and cause injury/damage to you, others, or surroundings.
Page 21
• Do not allow more than one person at a time on the board. • Do not ride your Hoverzon while intoxicated or under the influence of any prohibited drugs, prescription or otherwise. • Always comply with local laws and give way to pedestrians and do not ride in traffic.
The range per charge may vary upon multiple factors. Different factors will determine how much power the Hoverzon uses at different points so the overall range may not be the same for each and every journey. Consider the following factors: •...
3.4 Maximum Speed The normal speed range of the Hoverzon is 2-8 MPH / 3-12.8 km/hr and subject to terrain. If the user exceeds the maximum speed of 8MPH, the board will sound an alarm. At normal speeds, the board’s balancing system will function properly.
4.2 Step by Step Assuming you have equipped suitable protective gear and that the Hoverzon has been placed on a level surface, is well charged, and does not have any issues with the internal system, follow the steps below.

• It is recommended to ride on relatively smooth terrain and not to move too quickly while you practice. If the Hoverzon doesn’t self-balance when you trigger the pedal’s sensors, the indicator may light up with a red warning light. Do not operate the Hoverzon.

USAGE try again. If you are on a slope, move the Hoverzon to flat ground. If this continues, please contact customer support. DO NOT OPERATE. If the Hoverzon flips over or rotates more than 180 degrees, motor and riding capability will be disabled. To restore normal functions, power off the Hoverzon and then power it back on.
• Be careful going through doorways as you are taller than normal while riding. 4.5 Calibration If your Hoverzon seems to pull to the left or right abnormally, you may need to recalibrate its sensors. The process requires two levels, available at any hardware store. Additionally, many smartphones have free level apps as well.
Step 6: With the board correctly levelled, power it off. Step 7: Power on again and use as desired. The board should now be calibrated. If the Hoverzon is still not calibrated correctly, return to step 1 and begin making minor adjustments. 4.6 Bluetooth (XLS only) ®...
