Cleaning and Storing Mini
If you nd any stains on the case of Mini, take a piece of soft cloth
moistened with a little bit of water, and wipe the vehicle; if you spotted stains
that are difcult to remove, you can use toothpaste and a toothbrush to clean
spots on the Segway, and then wipe it clean with a damp cloth.
If you nd scratches on parts made from plastic, you can use sandpaper or
other abrasives to polish them.
Warning: Do not use alcohol, petrol, kerosene or other corrosive solutions,
volatile chemical solvents for cleaning, otherwise, it will cause serious
damage to the case and can disrupt segway interior construction.
Do not wash the Mini under the strong pressure of the water, even if the
Segway is turned off. In addition, after charging of the vehicle, it is necessary
to insert back the rubber cap, otherwise you may get an electric shock or in a
result of owing of water into this hole may cause serious damage.
If you do not use segway, store it in a cool, dry place, and do not leave it for
long-term stay on the street. Leaving the device under the sun / in extremely
high temperature / over-low temperature can cause rapid aging of the outer
case and wheels of Mini or to reduce the battery life.
Maintaining Battery Mini
Do not store the battery of segway in rooms with the temperature, which
exceeds 50С or below -20C (for example, do not leave the battery Mini and
other batteries in cars in summer time under the scorching sun).
Do not place the battery near the re, because the consequences of such
actions can deteriorate the battery , overheat and even a risk of re. The
other technical support information and precautions, see under the body of
the device on the tech plate of the battery.
Avoid complete discharge of device, it will help extend the life of the battery.
Furthermore, when using the device at room temperature, the battery is able
to overcome a much greater distance and its performance will be better;
but if you use a Segway at temperatures below 0C, performance and cross-
country of vehicle decreases.
At -20C, distance traveled by segway will be smaller by half than in normal
conditions or even less. But when the temperature rises, the distance
traveled by the battery again will be the same, go to the App and check the
remaining distance.
Note: A fully charged segway lasts for about 120-180 days of standby time;
not fully charged Segway lasts for about 30-60 days in standby.
Therefore, if you did not promptly charged device excessively low charge
may cause damage to segway.
Such damage can not be restored.
The battery has a smart chip that stores information about its charging-
discharging, so if you’re in for a long time not to recharge the Segway it can
cause a serious damage to the device after which can not be recharged,
thus, this type of damage is not included in the free warranty service .
(Warning: Unauthorized persons are forbidden to disassemble the device, as
there is a risk of electric shock or other serious injury due to a short circuit).
