Your New VX2 ProUpdated 9 days ago

Your package has just arrived!  

We are just as happy about that as you are. However, before you get started, there are a few important things to consider:  

Important features

1. Beast Mode: Ready for more speed? Tap the ON button five times to shift from Mode 1 (max speed of 16mph) to Mode 2 (max speed of 24mph). Look for a "13" on the display, then push the throttle, to toggle between modes. Then, hit the ON button another 5 times to lock in the mode you chose.

2. Eco or Sport Mode: Tap the ON button once to switch from Eco-Mode to Sport-Mode (you’ll see a white S on the display).

3. Cruise Control: Tap the ON button three times to activate Cruise-Mode for those long, relaxing rides. Want to revert? Just tap the ON button three times again. (A quick note: This does NOT set your current speed as the “cruise” speed, like it does with a car. Rather, when you have cruise mode enabled and have been at max throttle or at the same speed for several seconds in a row (about 5 seconds), then you can release the throttle and it will keep your set speed. Turn off by using brake or throttle again.)

4. Kick Start to Zero-Start: Tap the ON button four times to switch your scooter from requiring a kick to start to starting from zero with just the throttle.

Tire pressure 

The tires may have lost some pressure during the time in the box. Driving with too little pressure can lead to various damages to the scooter, as an important job of the tire is to cushion the scooter.
Be sure to inflate both tires before your first ride. Depending on the driver's weight, the tire pressure should be between 2.5 and 3 bar.
 
 

Drum brake 

The scooter's mechanical drum brake must be adjusted to your weight before riding.
To do this, turn the adjustment wheel at the bottom of the building cable either a little further up (the brake then grips more firmly) or downwards (the brake then grips more gently).
 
 

Recuperation brake 

The electric engine brake is a recuperation brake. If the scooter is switched off or the engine has a low speed, then there is very little braking force.
To prevent rolling away on a slope, for example, always use the left combination brake.
 
 

Connect with the VMAX app 

Our app offers you a lot of additional information about your scooter, such as the mileage of the current trip or your battery level in percentage and lets you quickly access settings such as the driving mode, kick or zero start and the lighting. But do not worry: If you do not have your cell phone with you or lend the scooter to your friends: the app is a purely optional part of your scooter. It works easily even without your cell phone.
To connect your cell phone to your scooter via Bluetooth, you need the VMAX CONNECT app for Android or iOS.
 
 

Immobilizer 

You can easily activate your scooter's immobilizer using the app. Your scooter will then lock the rear wheel electrically, so you do not have to worry about the scooter simply being driven by others.
However, you should only use the immobilizer if you can still keep an eye on the scooter. If you move further away from your scooter, we definitely recommend using a sturdy lock .
