Sett Up Your Apollo Scooter

Unbox Your Scooter:

After unboxing your scooter, you should have the scooter itself, a charger, a charging cable, and a toolkit. Make sure everything is present and in good condition.

Assemble your scooter: 

1. To assemble your scooter, start by gently raising the scooter's stem until it locks in place. Be cautious not to damage the attached handlebars. Secure it by locking the folding latch to keep it upright.
2. Connect the Communication Cable. Attach both ends of the blue Communication cable properly by following the arrows on each end. Tuck the wires inside the stem.
3. Attach the Handlebars. Use the stem screws from the toolkit to attach the handlebars securely to the stem. This step is crucial for steering control.

Understand The Control Panel

You can control all of the key features of your scooter using the buttons & throttles on your handlebars. Here's what each of them activates

Right-Side Controls

• Power Button: Hold it for 3 seconds to power on the scooter.
• Right Turn Signal: Press once to activate, again to deactivate.
• Accelerator Throttle: Gradually push it down to accelerate your scooter.

Left-Side Controls:

• Mode Button: Press once to toggle lights on/off, press twice to switch between trip and lifetime odometers.

Test Your Scooter
