(1) Are electric scooters waterproof?

All of our scooters are IP54 water resistant. This translates into withstanding light rain and riding on wet surfaces, but we recommend avoiding riding in heavy rainfall. If you plan on using your scooter in rainy climate, consider adding waterproofing to your purchase.

(2) Can electric scooters be used in the snow?

We don't recommend riding directly on the snow, however if roads are properly maintained, you can ride in winter. Keep in mind that your scooter is "water-resistant" and not "water-proof", therefore prolonged exposure to snow is not recommended. Secondly, your battery's ability to hold charge will be affected by the low temperature - you will notice a drop in range. This is not a permanent problem and your battery's capabilities should return to normal once the temperature increases back to 10-20 degrees Celsius. Finally, be particularly cautious of turning - scooters are two-wheeled vehicles and slipping is particularly dangerous.

(3) Can I bring my scooter on public transit (e.g. bus or train)?

This will vary from city to city, but generally yes. We have verified that public bus and train services in Vancouver, Toronto, and Montreal do allow electric scooters to be carried on board. The keyword here is "carried", not "rolled" - take the size and weight of your scooter into consideration if you plan on using it for last-mile commuting in addition to taking the train or bus. We recommend calling your local transit services and confirming whether scooters are allowed on-board prior to making your purchase.

(4) What's the best way to lock an electric scooter?

This will vary across models, however the most secure locking spots are typically any hollow, but centrally located parts of your scooter - such as neck stem on the Mercane Widewheel or front wheel on the Apollo City. Contact us for specific locking instructions with the model name and lock type at support@apolloscooters.co.

(5) How do I charge my scooter?

Please follow the instructions in your scooter manual. The process is similar across models - always plug the wall-plug into the AC outlet first, then connect the charging port to your scooter. While all scooters sold at Apollo come with advanced battery management features (such as overcharging protection), we recommend unplugging the charger once your scooter is fully charged. Do not leave your scooter with less than 40% for extended periods of time and try to charge it frequently, keeping the battery charge level near or at full. If you notice your charger is overheating or smoking, unplug it immediately. For additional questions regarding charging, please contact us at support@apolloscooters.co.

(6) How do I store my scooter in the wintertime?

There are a few easy steps that will ensure your scooter is in top shape come spring time:

1. Keep it dry and warm - just like you, electric scooter batteries don't like cold and humidity. Store yours in a dry and heated location, ideally between 15°C - 30°C.
2. Ensure it is at 75% charge or more - as a rule of thumb, the ideal battery charge level during storage is 75%. Do not let it drop below 20%, but also don't overcharge it as this can be very harmful. The sweet spot is between 75% and 85%.
3. Check it monthly - power your scooter on once a month to see if the charge level is holding up or dropping. If you notice that it's lower than what it was originally, charge it up to the 75% - 85% level once again before putting it back.
4. Don't ride in the snow - riding in the snow can allow humidity to enter the case of your scooter, corroding the electrical parts. We know it might be hard to part with your best friend for the season, but it's best to avoid exposing it to snow and salt.
5. Avoid overcharging - though most scooters come with a battery management system which includes overcharging protection, it is damaging to the battery cells to overcharge them for extended periods of time. None of us will unplug our scooter the second it's charged, but we can all try to minimize the amount of time it's overcharging for.
6. Lubricate bearings - last but not least it's important to keep your bearings greased up! You can use regular WD-40 to spray over your wheel bearing while the wheel is being turned. Afterwards, wipe off excess lubricant with a paper towel.

(7) How old do I need to be to ride an electric scooter?

We recommend electric scooters for individuals aged 16 or older, though this will depend on provincial laws and whether legal guardians are comfortable assuming responsibility for the underage individuals using electric scooters.

(1) Xiaomi M365/Pro

- My Xiaomi is really slow - is this normal?

Yes, the Xiaomi comes with eco mode and power mode, to change between the two, double click the power button quickly. When all 4 lights are white, this means you're in power mode. When the first light is green, this means you're in eco mode (hence slower/limited speed).

- I can barely fold my Xiaomi latch, is it supposed to be this hard?

If the folding latch is very stiff (this happens with some Xiaomi's), get a Hex Key (5x32) to release the front hex screw while adding WD40. This should grease up the screw and allow you to work the folding mechanism easier. However, its always better keeping it tighter rather than looser.

- Regular punctures, any solutions?

Yes, always! If your Xiaomi is experiencing punctures (which is completely normal as its an air tire), you can always change/upgrade to honeycomb tires. This will make your ride slightly less soft, but in the long run you will not need to change your air tires. We offer this part at cost if you're our customer - just reach out to us and we'll help :)

- Xiaomi Pro not connecting to mobile app for the update?

This is an easy fix - you have to mark your location as "Mainland China" and not Canada, then continue to use the application as per usual.

(2) Segway ES2/ES4

- My ES2/4 is really slow, is this normal?

Yes, the Segways comes with 3 different speed modes, to change between the 3, double click the power button quickly. You'll see 3 different options:

(1) Nothing different on the LED screen = power saving mode (slowest speed)

(2) A white "S" on the LED panel = Standard Mode

(3) A red "S" on the LED screen = Sport mode (use this one for top speed).

- My throttle/brake is sticky and getting stuck, what's going on?

This happens when the grip can be pushed against the brake or throttle too much. Slowly pull or twist your grip handle outwards - this should help!

(3) Mercane WideWheel

- I bought the Mercane Pro, but the speed is really slow - is it broken?

No - this is completely normal! The normal Mercane has the eco (25km/h speed) and power (32km/h) speed, however to reach the 45km/h speed as advertised, here's the video link: Unlock Full Speed Mercane

- My plastic suspension cover is broken/fell off, what happened?

This is a slight manufacturing defect unfortunately - the suspension covers are very fragile and we've had many issues to date from Mercane with these. Please send us an email at support@apollomvmt.com and we'll send you spare parts for this (granted they're in stock).

- Does the Mercane have Cruise Control?

Yes! Hold the button down for 1.5 seconds until flashing, now to activate cruise control, hold the brake and accelerate the throttle once (you should see the 4th white light appear - this means cruise control is activated).

- My handlebar is wobbly/moving, is this dangerous?

No - rest assured, the wobbliness is completely normal. Having a very tight metal connection of the handlebar with the stem of the scooter is very dangerous and can snap (metal needs some room to move). This slight wobble is a natural shock absorption and is not to be worried about.

(4) Apollo Light, Apollo City, Apollo Explore, Apollo Pro

- My scooter is not reaching the advertised speed - how can I fix it?

Each of the Apollo scooters comes with an LED controlled featuring three gears. Each gear limits the top speed - Gear 1 has the lowest top speed, while Gear 3 is the maximum. Simply press the "Mode" button on your controller to switch gears.

- I cannot fold the scooter, what's the issue?

When brand new, Apollo scooters can be occasionally difficult to fold. The folding mechanism will "break-in" over time and folding will become easier. A practice we always recommend to help with folding is applying pressure to the handlebar in the opposite direction from folding. Push the stem of the scooter away from the base, while pushing/pulling the folding latch. This counterintuitive approach will help with folding.

When unfolding, do the same - push the stem away from the base of the scooter. It helps lock the folding bold in the socket, ensuring the scooter is securely unfolded prior to riding it.
