Riding Safety

Neither Ninebot (Ninebot (Beijing) Tech Co., Ltd. or its subsidiaries and affiliates) nor Segway Inc. is responsible for injuries or damage caused by a driver’s inexperience or failure to follow the instructions in this User Manual or the New Rider Tutorial.
2. Remember as with any mode of transportation, that whenever you drive the Gokart, you risk injury or death from loss of control, collisions, and falls. You can reduce the risk by following all the instructions and warnings in this manual, but you cannot eliminate all the risks.
3. The Gokart kit contains small parts that can create a choking hazard. Keep small children away from the Gokart.

Pre-Ride Checklist and Preparing for Your Drive:

1. Before each drive check and tighten any loose parts, fasteners, straps, and replace damaged components.
2. To avoid accidents caused by improperly inflated or worn tires, check the tire pressure on the miniPRO tires and wear on all tires before each ride. Do not touch moving or spinning tires.
3. Ensure that the battery level and vehicle operating status are within the specifications contained in the manual of the model being used with the Gokart Kit.
4. Carefully read, understand, and follow all instructions in this User Manual, and watch and understand the New Rider Tutorial in the App before your first drive. Do not attempt to drive the Gokart if you are not able to drive by the instructions in this Manual or you risk serious injury or death.
5. Always wear appropriate shoes, clothing, and protective gear when riding. Protective gear includes the use of a helmet, knee pads, and elbow pads (not included). Use an approved bicycle or skateboard helmet that fits properly with the chin strap in place, and protects the back of your head. Remove or tie back anything loose (i.e. clothing, hair, jewelry, etc.) that could be caught in any moving parts. Always fasten the seat belt before riding and ensure it is securely tightened. Loose seat belts can get stuck in the wheels.
