7.1 Preparation

suggest the beginners to wear a helmet and other protections to avoid serious injuries.

7.2 8 Steps
z Hold the INMOTION V3 still and power it on.

pushing off the ground.
z Make sure that the INMOTION V3 would always be right in the middle of your legs and
not go other directions.
z Keep your body straight up and get relaxed, look forward and naturally get on another
foot. When you lift another foot off the ground, your body weight is slightly shifting to the
foot standing on the footboard.
z It is better that someone can hold your arms to help you get balanced or you can learn to
get on the vehicle by pushing your hands against a wall.
z Try to find your balance standing both feet on the INMOTION V3 and relax your calves.
z Someone can hold your arms and lead you drive forward and backward.
z When you get used to the feeling, now try to learn forward to go forward and lean
backward to go backward.
z Learn how to turn is always hard, make sure you are able to drive forward and backward
very smoothly.
z When you want to turn, twist your upper body towards the direction and push the
INMOTION V3 inward. Your upper body will naturally move to the opposite direction to
keep you balanced.
z Since INMOTION V3 actually has two tires, it is easier to turn with one tire touching the
ground and another off the ground.
7.3 Cautions
z Beginners who are under 18 or over 45 need someone as an assistant to help learn.
z Please make sure the battery is fully charged before use and the tires are properly inflated.
z Please do not drive fast before you are familiar with riding it. Please accelerate slowly.
