Segway PT Product Orientation
Riding Your Segway PT
This section describes how to ride the Segway PT. It
discusses riding for the first time and helpful hints for
all rides.
It is important that you practice riding in a controlled,
familiar environment until you are comfortable using
your Segway PT and InfoKey Controller.
Inspect your Segway PT before each use. Do not ride
if any part is loose, damaged, or if Tires are not
properly inflated.
Do not wear loose clothing or jewelry that could get
caught in the Segway PT.
Step 1: Preparing for Your Ride
To prepare for your first ride:
Select an appropriate area for your first ride. This area
may be indoors or outdoors and should measure at
least 12 feet by 12 feet (4 meters by 4 meters). It must
have a level, smooth riding surface with good traction
and should be free of obstructions and away from
vehicles, bicycles, pets, small children, and other
distractions.
You will need a spotter who has studied all the
instructions and warnings in this manual and the
Safety Video to help you and assist you with the
instructions.
Put on your helmet and fasten and adjust the
chinstrap and head ratchet if applicable.
Step 2: Powering On the Segway PT
Using the InfoKey Controller, power on your
Segway PT by pressing the Power/Standby button.
The Power/Standby button is located on the bottom
left-hand side of the InfoKey Controller.
You will hear a tone from the Segway PT and the
Balance Indicator lights (located on the Console) will
illuminate to indicate the power is ON and the
Segway PT is in Standby Mode.
