IMPORTANT: If storing the City Bug electric scooter for a long period, disconnect the battery 
from the motor and recharge the battery fully at least once every month to preserve battery 
life. 

 

Refer to the Battery System and Charger section of this manual for additional specifications 
regarding use.  

 

Handlebar and Seat Height Adjustment 

 

Lowering the handlebar and seat height will ensure the most compact disassembled size, but 
it is not required.

 

 

Lower the handlebar and seat tubes by opening the quick release levers on the steer 
tube and seat tube. After lowering the handlebar and seat tubes as far as possible, 
firmly close the quick release mechanisms. 

 

 

Press in the locking buttons and release the handlebar halves. The handlebar halves 
will be retained by built in elastic bands.

Pull the seat tube latch upward and hold, releasing the locking mechanism. 

 

 

Fold the seat tube forward until it is in a horizontal position. 

 

 

Firmly push the folding mechanism latch forward, releasing the steer tube. 

 

 

Turn the handlebar clockwise until the steer tube latch is lined up to properly fit into 
the seat tube slot. 

 

 

Insert the steer tube latch into the seat tube, making sure it securely locks into 
position.
