drive incautiously, and you're exposed to road accidents just as when you're walking or biking. The higher the speed the
longer the stopping distance. On a smooth surface, the scooter may slip, lose balance, and even result in a fall. Be cautious
when riding, don't speed and keep a safe distance from other road users, especially when riding in unfamiliar areas.

pedestrians, ring your bell to give them a heads-up and slow your scooter down to pass from their le (applicable to
countries where vehicles drive on the right). When you ride across pedestrians, keep to the right at a low speed. When you
drive across pedestrians, keep the lowest speed or ge ing off the vehicle.

regarding electric scooters. Xiaomi Communication Co., Ltd. shall not be liable for any financial losses, physical injuries,
accidents, legal disputes and other interest conflicts resulted from actions that violate user instructions.

instructions in this manual. Be careful when mounting and dismantling the product, it may fall and cause injury.
