How do you start the scooter ?


  • Press the "unlock" button and scan the QR code on the scooter's handlebars.
  • Wait a few seconds for the scooter to light up and then push it forward to raise the kickstand.
  • Put both hands on the handlebars and place one foot on the scooter.
  • With the other foot, push the scooter until you reach a speed of around 5km/h.
  • Put your second foot on the scooter and gently press the accelerator to the right of your handlebars.


What should I do if the scooter won't start ?


  • Are the front light and speedometer switched on ?
    If not, finish your run and restart it. If the scooter still won't start, it may be due to a technical problem. Park the scooter responsibly and try with another vehicle.


  • Is the scooter switched on but not accelerating ?
    Try using your foot to pick up a little more speed before pressing the accelerator. If it still doesn't work, it may be a technical problem. Park the scooter responsibly and try with another vehicle
