Daily use guidelines

Wear non-slip, supportive shoes on your good foot (never bare feet or flip-flops). Propel slowly with small steps from the good leg, keeping hands on handlebars and body centered over the device. Use hand brakes to slow/stop before turns, inclines, or obstacles; avoid high speeds or sudden maneuvers.

Indoor safety

Clear paths of rugs, cords, or clutter; practice turns in open areas first. Not recommended to use near stairs, elevators, or to pull up from sitting.

Outdoor precautions

Stick to smooth, level surfaces like sidewalks. Avoid gravel, wet areas, steep slopes, or curbs. Go extra slow on transitions like thresholds.
