Ninebot S-Max
(Hereinafter referred to as S-Max)

1 Riding Safety

1. S-Max is a recreational product. Before mastering riding skills, you need to practice. Neither Ninebot (means Ninebot
(Beijing) Tech Co., Ltd. and its subsidiaries and affiliate) nor Segway Inc. is responsible for any injuries or damage caused by
a rider's inexperience or failure to follow the instructions in this document.
2. Please understand that you can reduce the risk by following all the instructions and warnings in this manual, but you cannot
eliminate all the risks. Remember that whenever you ride the S-Max you risk injury or death from loss of control, collisions,
and falls. When entering into public spaces always comply with the local laws and regulations. As with other vehicles, faster
speeds require longer braking distance. Sudden braking on smooth surfaces could lead to wheel slip, loss of balance, or
falls. Be cautious and always keep a safe distance between you and other people or vehicles when riding. Be alert and slow
down when entering unfamiliar areas.
3. Always wear a helmet when riding. Use an approved bicycle or skateboard helmet that fits properly with the chin strap in
place, and provides protection for the back of your head.
4. Do not attempt your first ride in any area where you might encounter children, pedestrians, pets, vehicles, bicycles, or other
obstacles and potential hazards.
5. Respect pedestrians by always yielding the right of way. Pass on the left whenever possible. When approaching a pedestrian
from the front, stay to the right and slow down. Avoid startling pedestrians. When approaching from behind, announce
yourself and slow down to walking speed when passing. Please obey local traffic laws and regulations.
6. In places without laws and regulations governing self-balancing electric vehicles, comply with the safety guidelines outlined
in this manual. Neither Ninebot nor Segway Inc. is responsible for any property damage, personal injury/death, accidents, or
legal disputes caused by violations of the safety instructions.
7. Do not allow anyone to ride your S-Max on his/her own unless they have carefully read this manual, watched the safety
video, and followed the New Rider Tutorial on the Segway-Ninebot App. The safety of new riders is your responsibility. Assist
new riders until they are comfortable with the basic operation of the S-Max. Make sure each new rider wears a helmet and
other protective gear.
8. Before each ride check for loose fasteners, damaged components, and low tire pressure. If the S-Max makes abnormal
sounds or signals an alarm, immediately stop riding. Diagnose your S-Max via the Segway-Ninebot App and call your
dealer/distributor for service.
9. Be alert! Scan both far ahead and in front of your S-Max — your eyes are your best tool for safely avoiding obstacles and low
traction surfaces (including, but not limited to, wet ground, loose sand, loose gravel, and ice).
10. To reduce risk of injury, you must read and follow all "CAUTION" and "WARNING" notices in this document. Do not ride at
an unsafe speed. Under no circumstance should you ride on roads with motor vehicles. The manufacturer recommends
riders be 16+ years old. Always follow these safety instructions:
A. People who should not ride the S-Max include:
FCC ID: 2ALS8-PS0002
IC: 22636-PS0002
i. Anyone under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
