BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Remove contents from box. Remove the foam separators that protect the components from damage during shipping.
Inspect the contents of the box for scratches in the paint, dents or kinked cables that may have occurred during
shipping. Because the EcoSmart Metro electric scooter was 95 percent assembled and packed at the factory, there
should not be any problems, even if the box has a few scars or dents.

q Adjusting the Brakes
Tools required: 10mm open wrench
WARNING:
The brake is capable of skidding
the rear tire and throwing an
unsuspecting rider. Practice in an
open area free from obstacles
until you are familiar with the
brake function. Avoid skidding to a
stop as this can cause you to lose
control and/or damage the rear tire.
1 To adjust the brake cable play, thread the
brake lever adjuster in or out 1/4 to 1/2 turn until
the desired brake adjustment is attained. Most
adjustments are complete at this step. If brake still
needs further adjustment, proceed to step 2.
2 If the brake is too tight or too
loose, use a 10mm open wrench to
loosen the nut for additional adjust-
ment on the brake cable. Securely
tighten the nut when finished.

REPAIR AND MAINTENANCE
q Charging the Battery
WARNING: Always
disconnect your EcoSmart Metro
electric scooter from the charger
before cleaning.
Your electric scooter may not have a fully charged battery. Therefore it is a good idea to charge the battery prior to use.
• Initial charge time: 12 hours
extended period of time, the battery may reach a
stage at which it will no longer hold a charge.
• To ensure long battery life, never store the product
in freezing or below freezing temperatures!
Freezing will permanently damage the battery.
• Run time: Up to 40 minutes of continuous ride
time. Run time may vary depending on riding
conditions, climate and/or proper maintenance.
• Recharge time: up to 12 hours, even if the light turns
green. Recommended maximum charging time is
24 hours.
• Always charge the battery immediately after riding.
• Fully charge battery before storing for extended
periods of time.
• Unplug charger from the wall outlet when not in use.
• Failure to recharge battery periodically may result in
a battery that will not accept a charge.
• Make sure scooter power switch is turned OFF when
unit is not in use. If the power switch is left on for an
Note: If your charger does not
look like the one illustrated,
your unit has been supplied
with an alternative charger.
The specifications and charging
procedure would not change.
• Constant stopping and starting may shorten ride time.
• Average battery life for a properly maintained unit
is approx. 250 charge/discharge cycles.
The charger has a small window
with one LED to indicate the charge
status. Refer to the illustration
on the charger unit for the actual
“charging” and “charged” status
indications for your model charger.
Chargers have built-in over-charge
protection to prevent battery from
being over-charged.

Be sure to properly align the
groove on the charger input
plug with the corresponding
socket on the case; otherwise,
no charging action will occur.

2 Turn power to the “OFF”
position. Plug the charger into the
charger port as shown.
1 Plug the charger plug into a wall
outlet.
Note: If charger lights do not turn
on when plugged into the wall, try
another outlet.
q Inflating the Tires
Tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably lose some pressure between the point of manufacturing and
your purchase. Low tire pressure can decrease the ride time of your unit.
Note: The pressurized air supplies
found at gasoline stations are
designed to inflate high-volume
automobile tires. If you decide to
use such an air supply to inflate
tires, first make sure the pressure
gauge is working, then use very
short bursts to inflate to the correct
PSI. If you inadvertently over-
inflate the tire, release the excess
pressure immediately.
1 Using a bicycle style pump equipped for a Schrader-type valve, inflate the
tires to the PSI indicated on the sidewall of the tires.
Note: Low air pressure can decrease the ride time of your unit.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Problem
Possible Cause
Solution
Undercharged battery
Scooter does not run
Charge the battery. A new battery should have been charged for at least 12
hours before using the scooter for the first time and up to 12 hours after each
subsequent use.
Check all connectors. Make sure the charger connector is tightly plugged into
the charging port and that the charger is plugged into the wall.
Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is on.
Charger is not working
You may check to see if your charger is working by using a volt meter or ask
your local Razor authorized service center to test your charger for you.
Loose wires or connectors
Check all wires and connectors to make sure they are tight.
Power will automatically shut off if the motor is overloaded.
Scooter was running but
suddenly stopped
An excessive overload, such as too heavy a rider or too steep a hill, could
cause the motor to overheat. If the scooter suddenly stops running, wait
a few seconds and then push the breaker to reset the circuit. Correct the
conditions that caused the breaker to trip and avoid repeatedly tripping the
breaker.
Undercharged battery
Short run time (less than
40 minutes per charge)
Charge the battery. A new battery should have been charged for at least 12
hours before using the scooter for the first time and up to 12 hours after each
subsequent use.
Check all wires and connectors. Make sure the battery connector is tightly
plugged into the charger connector and that the charger is plugged into
the wall.
Make sure power flow to the wall outlet is on.
Battery is old and will not accept
full charge
Even with proper care, a rechargeable battery does not last forever. Average
battery life is 1 to 2 years depending on scooter use and conditions. Replace
only with a Razor replacement battery.
Brakes are not adjusted properly
Driving conditions are too stressful
Tires are not properly inflated
Refer to adjusting the brakes instructions on page 4.
Scooter runs sluggishly
Use only on solid, flat, clean and dry surfaces such as pavement or level
ground.
The tires are inflated when shipped, but they invariably will lose some
pressure between the point of manufacturing and your purchase. Refer to
instructions on page 5 of this manual to properly inflate tires.
Scooter is overloaded
Make sure you do not overload the scooter by allowing more than one rider
at a time, exceeding the 220 lb. maximum weight limit, going up a hill
or towing objects behind the scooter. If the scooter is overloaded, the
circuit breaker may trip and shut off power to the motor. Correct the riding
conditions that caused the overload, wait a few seconds, and then push the
breaker to reset the circuit.
Brake rotor is dragging on pads
Brakes are not adjusted properly
Use your fingers to twist the caliper adjuster in either direction until rotor is
centered between pads.
Refer to adjusting the brakes instructions on page 4.
