Your package just arrived!
We're just as excited as you are. But before you get started, there are a few important things to keep in mind:
-
Tire pressure
While the scooter was in the box, the tires may have lost some air pressure. Riding with insufficient tire pressure can cause a variety of problems with the scooter, since one of the tire’s key functions is to provide suspension for the scooter.
Be sure to inflate both tires before your first ride. Depending on the rider's weight, the tire pressure should be between 2.5 and 3.0 bar.
-
drum brake
It is essential to adjust the scooter's mechanical drum brake to your weight before riding.
To do this, turn the adjustment wheel at the bottom of the Bowden cable either slightly further up (the brake will then engage more firmly) or down (the brake will then engage more gently).
-
Regenerative brake
The electric motor brake is a regenerative brake. When the scooter is turned off or the motor is running at low speed, the braking force is very low.
Um zum Beispiel am Hang ein Wegrollen zu verhindern, nutze immer die left Combined brake.
-
App Connections
The app provides you with a wealth of useful information about your scooter and helps you plan your trips in advance, including charging stops. Please note that the app is purely optional and is not required to use the scooter.
To connect your scooter to your phone via Bluetooth, you'll need the VMAX E-SCOOTER (available for iOS and Android).

Kickstart or Zerostart
This is how we refer to the scooter’s two starting modes. We recommend the kickstart mode especially for inexperienced riders. In this mode, the scooter won’t start if you simply twist the throttle; instead, the scooter must already be rolling. In this mode, you start off as if you were riding a kick scooter and only apply the throttle once you’re already rolling and both feet are securely on the footboard.
With a zero-start, the scooter moves forward from a standstill. Since the drive comes from the rear wheel, the front wheel may lift off the ground if you shift your weight to the back of the scooter.
Um zwischen den beiden Modi zu wechseln, kannst du einfach in die Einstellungen des Displays gehen.

USB port on the handlebar
Dein VX2 EXTREME bietet dir die Möglichkeit, dein Handy während der Fahrt zu laden, um die Navigation auch auf weiten Touren zu nutzen. Hierfür ist unterhalb der linken Bedieneinheit ein USB-A Anschluss verbaut. Um diesen Anschluss zu nutzen, stecke das Kabel und dein Handy im ausgeschalteten Zustand an deinen Scooter an und schalte erst anschließend deinen Scooter an. Nur so wird die Stromversorgung des Anschlusses freigeschaltet.
