BEFORE RIDING

Any Rally that does not work properly can cause you to lose control and fall. Do not ride a Rally with a part that is damaged; replace the damaged part before riding.

It is important that you fully understand all elements of your Rally. If these elements are not used correctly, you will not have full control of your Rally. Before you ride, learn the functions of the various mechanisms on your scooter.
Practice using these elements of your Rally at slower speeds in a flat, open area before taking the Rally out in public areas.

PRE-RIDE CHECKLIST

Ensure that your Rally is in proper working order each and every time you ride. If a part of the scooter does not function correctly, please contact our Customer Support Center.

• Ensure the battery is fully charged before riding your scooter.
• If the Rally is not to be used for an extended period of time, you may need to recharge the battery every 2 months to maintain the battery life.
• Please wear all appropriate safety and protective gear as previously mentioned in the User Manual before operating your Rally.
• Make sure to wear comfortable clothes and flat closed-toe shoes when operating your Rally.
• Please carefully read the Operation Manual, which will assist in explaining the basic working principles and provide tips on how to best enjoy your experience.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The first rule in safe riding is to use common sense.
Different localities and countries have different laws governing riding on public roads, and you should check with local officials to ensure you are complying with these laws.

Hover-1 is not liable for tickets or violations given to riders who do not follow local laws and regulations.

• For your safety, always wear a helmet that meets CPSC or CE safety standards. In the event of an accident, a helmet can protect you from serious injury and in some cases, even death.
• Obey all local traffic laws. Obey red and green lights, one-way streets, stop signs, pedestrian crosswalks, etc.
• Ride with the traffic, not against it. Ride defensively; expect the unexpected.
• Give pedestrians the right-of-way.
• Do not ride too close to pedestrians and alert them if you intend to pass them from behind.
• Slow down at all street intersections and look to the left and right before crossing.

Your Rally is not equipped with reflectors. It is not recommended that you ride in conditions of low visibility.
If you are riding your scooter in low-visibility conditions, ensure your LED light is turned on, and that you are wearing bright, reflective clothing.

When you ride in low-visibility conditions such as fog, dusk, or night, you might be difficult to see, which could lead to a collision. To increase your level of safety, be sure wear bright, reflective clothing when riding in poor lighting conditions.

Think about safety when you ride. You can prevent many accidents if you think about safety. Below is a helpful checklist for riders.

SAFETY CHECKLIST

• Do not ride above your skill level. Ensure you have had enough practice with all functions and features of your Rally.
• Do not ride too fast — with increased speed comes increased risk. If you are moving at a higher speed, small bumps can turn into large impacts, leading to a higher risk of injury if an accident occurs.
• Do not ride with pets.
• Before stepping on your Rally, make sure it is placed flat on level ground and the power is on.
• Do not try to open or modify your Rally. Doing so, voids the manufacturer warranty and may cause your Rally to fail, resulting in injury or death.

RIDING YOUR RALLY

FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS CAN AND MAY LEAD TO DAMAGE TO YOUR RALLY, VOID YOUR MANUFACTURER WARRANTY, LEAD TO PROPERTY DAMAGE, CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, AND CAN LEAD TO DEATH.

OPERATING YOUR RALLY

Make sure the Rally is fully charged before the first initial Use. Before turning on your Rally, ride it like a normal kick scooter to get comfortable with the Rally before using it with the motor.

When comfortable riding the scooter, power it on. For the motor to activate, you must first start riding the scooter and then push the throttle down.

To slow down the scooter, push the electric brake down. This will stop the motor and slow you down. Also press the mechanical brake with your foot to manually slow down the scooter.

The Rally is equipped with a built-in 320 Watt Brushless Motor which allows you to accelerate (up to 12 mph) and decelerate.

To turn, use the handlebar to turn in the direction you wish to turn.

The Rally can be operated manually if you do not wish to use the motor.

As you get comfortable on the Rally, you will notice it becomes easier to maneuver. Remember at higher speeds, it is necessary to shift your weight to overcome the centrifugal force.

Bend your knees if you encounter bumps or uneven surfaces, then dismount and carry your Rally to a safe operating surface.

Do not turn sharply or at high speeds to avoid danger. Do not turn or ride quickly along slopes, as it may cause injury.

WEIGHT AND SPEED LIMITATIONS

Speed and weight limits are set for your own safety. Please do not exceed the limits listed here in the manual.

• Maximum Weight: 264 lbs
• Minimum Weight: 44 lbs
• Maximum Speed: Up to 12 mph

Overweight exertion on the Rally may increase possibility of injury or product damage.

OPERATING RANGE

The Rally can travel a distance up to 7 miles on a fully charged battery in ideal conditions. The following are some of the major factors that will affect the operating range of your Rally.

• Terrain: Riding distance is highest when riding on a smooth, flat surface. Riding uphill and/or on rough terrain will reduce distance significantly.
• Weight: A lighter user will have further range than a heavier user.
• Ambient temperature: Please ride and store the Rally under recommended temperatures, which will increase driving distance; battery life, and overall performance of your Rally.
• Speed and Riding Style: Maintaining a moderate and consistent speed while riding produces maximum distance. Traveling at high speeds for extended periods, frequent starts and stops, idling and frequent acceleration or deceleration will decrease overall distance.

SAFETY ALERTS

While riding your Rally, if there is a system error or an illegal operation occured, the Rally will prompt the user in a variety of ways.

The following are common occurrences where you will see Safety Alerts. These notices should not be ignored, but appropriate action should be taken to correct any illegal operation, failure or errors.

• Prohibited riding surfaces (uneven, too steep, unsafe, etc.)
• Battery voltage is too low.
• The Rally is still charging.
• Overheating, or motor temperature is too high.
• If the system enters protection mode, the alarm indicator will light up. This typically occurs when the battery is about to run out of power.
• If any or both tires are blocked, the Rally will stop after 2 seconds. When the battery level has depleted below protection mode, the Rally motor will power off after 15 seconds.

While sustaining a high discharge current during use (such as riding up a steep slope for a long period of time), the Rally motor will power off after 15 seconds.

CHARGING YOUR RALLY

• Ensure that the charging port is clean and dry.
• Make sure that there is no dust, debris or dirt inside the port.
• Plug the charger into a grounded wall outlet.
• Connect the cable with the power supply (100V ~ 240V; 50/60 Hz).
• Align and connect the I-pin charging cable into the charging port of the Rally. DO NOT FORCE OR BEND THE CHARGING CABLE INTO THE CHARGING PORT, AS IT MAY CAUSE THE PRONGS TO BEND OR BREAK.
• The charging indicator light should change to RED, indicating that your Rally is now being charged.
• When the RED indicator light on your charger turns to GREEN, then your Rally is fully charged.
• A full charge may take up to 4 hours.
• After fully charging your Rally, unplug the charger from your Rally and from the power outlet.
