RECOMMENDATIONS
Wear appropriate protective equip-•
ment such as helmet , arm and knee
pads .
Do not ride barefoot.•
Listening to music or manage phone •
and other devices while driving
means less attention and increased
risk of accidents.
Check out local regulations about •
riding MonoWheel™ before use.
Do not ride in rain, puddles or mud. •
Also avoid sand or slippery surfaces
that can cause you to lose your bal-
ance.
MonoWheels™ batteries can not •
handle cold and should not be used
or stored so that the battery tem-
perature can be colder than 10 de-
grees.
Make sure to have fully charged bat-•
tery when you ride. For prolonged
storage, the battery should be fully
charged.
Never run completely out of bat-•
teryy. As soon as the lamp turns
red you have to stop immediately
and not restart until charging. The
batteries can be permanently dam-
aged.
Pay attention that the engine power •
decreases as the battery discharges
and therefore, greater care should
be taken when riding with weak bat-
When you ride your MonoWheel™,
there is always a risk of injury
because of a loss of control, crash
or engine failure. Follow the instruc-
tions in the manual to minimize this
risk and always think of your own
and others’ safety when you ride!
teries. Get to know the limitations of
your weight and battery strength
under controlled conditions.
Ride on a closed , at open space un-•
til you have full control and always
keep the speed below 12 km/h
Keep in mind that MonoWheel™ is •
silent when you ride among other
people and adapt therefore dis-
tance. Follow all local trac laws
and ride with care.
Use the enclosed safety strap to at-•
tach the handle and your belt to
prevent MonoWheel™ to go further
when control is lost .
Do not lift MonoWheel™ above •
ground without turning it o rst.
Turn o and then on again when the
wheel get contact with the ground
again.
If the power light is ashing red •
MonoWheel™ should not be used.
Turn o and on to regain the green
light, always with the wheel contact
with the ground.
SAFETY STRAP
Start by attaching to the handle and ad-
just the length so that it reaches 1 dm
above the waist when standing on the
pedals. You then attach the other end of
the strap to the waist belt. You can keep
the belt in your hand, but this is more dif-
cult as a beginner. You should use the
strap until you are absolutely sure not
to lose control. Without the belt you risk
the safety of others.
LEARNING TO RIDE
Learning to ride takes most people less
than 30 minutes if you have the help of
another person for support. To accel-
erate the learning process it is recom-
mended to:
Start practicing on a large open plan •
clean surface , such as a parking lot,
p- garage or gym .
Get help from a friend who sup-•
port you before you got balance by
walking by your side and hold you.
This step is especially important the
rst 20 minutes. The friend should
also have read the manual.
Place MonoWheel™ on the ground (
there is no front / rear ) and turn on the
ON button and fold out both foot ped-
als. Check that the power light is green.
It takes two seconds before Mono-
Wheel™ gives stability and can be used.
Place your feet in the middle on each
foot pedal, be straight in the body and
squeeze lightly to the sides (when you
learn to ride, you will not stand so that
your legs are in contact with the chas-
si). Be sure to place both feet equally
on each side . Take support against a
cfriends shoulders and start to feel the
balance. Try to stand straight but re-
laxed and look a bit forward.
At rst, your muscles will try to com-
pensate and counteract MonoWheels
movements. This results in MonoWheel™
shakes and vibrates laterally .
Lean forward slowly as a ski jumper (ie
with the whole body, not just your up-
per body) until you achieve the walking
speed, all the time with your arm around
a friend who keeps the balance . Go
straight and repeat back and forth until
you feel safe and stable. Higher speed
gives better balance. Avoid sudden and
jerky movements and reduce or increase
the speed by gently lean forward or back
with the whole body.
Decrease the support from your friend
gradually until you feel completely safe
and secure. Then hold his friend’s hand
instead and keep practicing until you
can let go of your hand and ride yourself.
Avoid turning in the beginning. Keep
attention on the ground, avoiding hills,
bumps and unevenness.
Normal speed for MonoWheel™ is up to
12 km/h. At speeds above 12 km/h will
MonoWheel™ counteract your accelera-
tion with the front part of the pedal is
lifted. This is perceived as jerky and un-
even but is normal and means you are
riding to fast. If you continue to hold
high speed this can lead to falls. Slow-
ing down below 12 km/h will regaine
stability. Best riding experience is gained
at speed up to 12 km/h and smooth ac-
celeration . MonoWheel 2.0™ also warns
with a beep when the speed is too high.
TURNING
Turning is done by pressing the front
part of one foot / toes while giving a little
extra speed by leaning slightly forward
in the turn direction. Expect a radius of
at least 5 meters as a beginner and make
sure there is plenty of space without bar-
riers. Experienced drivers can turn in less
than 0.5 meter radius. Do not try to turn
in small spaces as normal cycle paths.
Use large open spaces.
BRAKE
Braking is done by tilting the body
backwards. It is possible to slow down
considerably in a short distance, but
this require training. Until you have full
control, please hold constant low speed
(walking speed, about 5 km/h) main-
tained. Heavy braking can be done to
a certain limit. Exceeded the limit, the
engine will shut o. Practice where your
limit goes for your weight class on hard
at lawn or similar surface, always with
proper safety equipment and the sup-
port of friend.
UPHILL
MonoWheel™ can handle inclines up to
15 degrees. In all uphill, at low constant
speed maintained (<5 km/h - walking
speed )! Do not ride uphill with poor
battery charge. Do not accelerate! Do
not ride on the slippery uphills. Improp-
er use can lead to falling.
DOWNHILL
MonoWheel™ can run downhill but like
uphills, a low constant rate (<5 km/h -
walking speed ) must be held. Do not
accelerate downhill. The battery is auto-
matically charged downhill .
START WITHOUT HELP
As a beginner, take the support of friend
to start. After a while, you can practice
to start without support. This is done by
putting the right foot on the right foot
pedal, tilt MonoWheel™ slightly to the
left, push down the toe so that Mono-
Wheel™ wants to accelerate, take one
or two steps forward with the left foot
while the right foot makes sure that
MonoWheel™ comes in a straight line
and then sets the left foot to the left foot
pedal. The important thing is to dare to
lean forward so you get control speed.

BATTERIES
Charge the lithium batteries fully be-
fore using MonoWheel™ rst time. The
batteries manages approximately 300
charge cycles. To extend the shelf life rec-
ommended that you keep MonoWheel™
fully charged when not in use. For lon-
ger periods of storage, charge ones each
month. Do not overload the battery by
keeping low speed on hills , do not ex-
ceed 15 degree angle and make sure the
batteries always keeptemperature high-
er than 10 degrees. Exposure of batteries
to cool environment will permanently
damaged the batteries.
The function indicator indicates how
much power is left in the battery. Solid
green indicates 67-100% , 33-66% slow
ashing, fast ashing light, less than 33%
and rapidly ashing red light to immedi-
ate charge is needed .
It is very important to stop riding Mono-
Wheel™ immediately when red light is
on! If you continue to ride you may los
control and damage batteries. Do not
drive with low battery. Only charge
the battery with the charger indoors.
MonoWheel™ must be switched o dur-
ing charging. If possible, always charge
full. Never turn on MonoWheel™ during
charging. Charging takes 1-3 hours.
TIRE
Periodically check that the tires are prop-
erly inated. Low pressure means less
performance, greater wear and higher
load on the engine. Tire can be relled at
any gas station or with an adapter with
bicycle pump. Proper air pressure is 40-
45 psi or 2.8-3.1 Bar. Also, make sure the
wheel is clean and undamaged before
each use.
WARNING INDICATOR
MonoWheel 2.0™ is equipped with a
warning light that is emitted when you
approach the engine’s maximum per-
formance. If you follow the recommen-
dations in this manual about current
speeds, hills and acceleration, you get
plenty of time to react when the sound
is heard to avoid falling. The audio is
sound when you go too fast, accelerates
erratically or going in too steep a slope.
The sound indicates that you are doing
something wrong.
REPAIRING
Do not attempt to repair an error or open
the chassis and do not ride on a Mono-
Wheel™ you suspect have error. Contact
service@monowheel.se .
FALLING
You may encounter cases leading to fall-
ing with your MonoWheel™ and hurt you!
The risk increases with speed and poorer
charged batteries. Keep low (walking
speed approximately 5 km/h) until you
have full control on how MonoWheel™
reacts at varying speeds, substrates and
accelerations. Do not go where falling
can lead to big consequences for your-
self or others.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How much balance required to go?
Since MonoWheel™ has electronics that
help maintain balance, all with normal
balance learn to MonoWheel™ in as little
