Step by step

Tap a step when it’s done to keep your place.

  1. Charge it

    Give it an hour on charge, nearby, then try the power button again (a firm, longer press).

  2. Check the display cable

    Look at the cable at the handlebar and the fold. Unplug, dry, clean, plug back firmly.

  3. Dry it out

    If it was in rain, leave it indoors in a dry room for a day before trying again.

Stay safe

  • Anything inside the battery pack, or a pack that is swollen, hot, smells or has been dropped hard. Stop using it and take it to a shop that works on e-scooter batteries.

When to take it to a shop
