OPERATING YOUR HOVERBOARD

The Hoverboard uses gyroscopes and acceleration sensors to control 
balance intelligently depending on your center of gravity. The Hoverboard 
also uses a servo-control system to drive the motor. It adapts to the human 
body, so when you stand on the Hoverboard, just lean your body forward or 
backward. The power plant will control the wheels in a forward or backward 
motion to keep you balanced.

To turn, simply slow down and lean your body left or right. The built-in inertia 
dynamic stabilization system will maintain the direction frontwards or 
backwards. However, it cannot guarantee stability while turning left or right. 
As you drive the Hoverboard, please shift your weight in order to overcome 
the centrifugal force and improve your safety while turning.

MAT SENSORS

There are four sensors under the mats. When the user steps on the mats, 
the Hoverboard will automatically initiate self-balance mode.

A. While driving the Hoverboard, you must be sure to step on the foot mats 
evenly. 

DO NOT STEP ON ANY AREA OTHER THAN THE MATS.

B. Please do not put items on the mats. This will make the Hoverboard 
switch on, which could potentially cause injury to people, or damage to the 
unit.

DISPLAY BOARD

The Display Board is located in the middle of the Hoverboard. It displays the 
current information of the device.

BATTERY DISPLAY

A. A solid GREEN LED light indicates that the Hoverboard is fully charged 
and ready to use. The ORANGE LED light indicates that the battery is low 
and needs to be recharged. When the LED light becomes RED, the battery is 
depleted and needs to be charged immediately.

B. Running LED: When the operator triggers the mat sensors, the running 
LED will light up. GREEN means that the system has entered into a running 
state. When the system has an error during operation, the running LED light 
will turn RED.
