Operating Limits It is important that you familiarize yourself with the operating limits of the Segway PT. These limits are set to maximize rider safety while reducing the risk of damage to the Segway PT. The Segway PT will perform better when you observe these limits.
NOTE: For more information on recognizing and responding to Safety Alerts, see "Speed Limiter" (p. 52), "Stick Shake Warning" (p. 54), and "Safety Shutdown" (p. 57). Minimum Rider Weight The rider’s weight must not be less than 100 lbs (45 kg). If the rider is below the minimum rider weight, he/she may not be able to ride safely because he/she cannot shift his/her weight far enough back (behind the centerline of the wheels) to safely slow down and stop. This is especially true when riding downhill.
Maximizing Range Maximum range distances are provided in Table 2 (p. 12). The range of your Segway PT is affected by many variables, including: • Terrain: Riding on smooth, flat terrain improves range, and riding on hilly terrain and unpaved surfaces reduces range. • Speed and Riding Style: Riding at a consistent, moderate speed will increase range. Frequent starting, stopping, acceleration, and deceleration reduces range.
Setting Up Your Segway PT This section describes what is included with your Segway PT and gives assembly instructions.
Assembling Your Segway PT (cont.) To Set Up your Segway PT, follow the procedures below in the order listed. For the name and location of specific PT components, see "Segway PT Components and Subsystems" (p. 27). Prepare the LeanSteer Frame Tool Required: None The LeanSteer Frame is collapsed to its shortest length for shipping. Assembly is required before adjusting the Handlebar height for the first time. To extend and assemble the LeanSteer Frame: 1.
3. Position the Handlebar Clamp against the Handlebar. 4. Insert the 3 fasteners through the Handlebar Clamp into the LeanSteer Frame. 5. Using the 3 mm hex wrench, alternate between the 3 fasteners, evenly tightening in small increments. 6. Check to ensure that the gap between the Handlebar Clamp and the LeanSteer Frame is even, and the same between the top and bottom. Tighten to 2.0 N-m (18 in-lbf).
Assembling Your Segway PT (cont.) 5. With the Segway PT powered down (OFF), lean the LeanSteer Frame fully left and right, until it touches each fender (see Figure 6). 6. Ensure the LeanSteer Frame returns to a straight, upright position. 7. Check the fasteners to be sure they are tight. NOTE: Check the fasteners at least monthly to be sure they remain tight. If they are loose, tighten the fasteners to 11.0 N-m (8.1 ft-lbf).
Adapter should snap into place when screwed on. To remove the InfoKey Controller Dock Adapter, unscrew the adapter from the underside of the InfoKey Controller. Dock the InfoKey Controller Tool Required: None To dock the InfoKey Controller: 1. Make sure the Segway PT is unplugged and powered off. 2. Ensure the InfoKey Controller Dock Adapter is installed (see "Install the InfoKey Controller Dock," p. 20). 3. Slide the InfoKey Controller up into the InfoKey Controller Dock.
Assembling Your Segway PT (cont.) Install the Batteries WARNING Refer to "Segway PT Batteries" (p. 85) for battery-related safety precautions and handling instructions.

The Segway PT This chapter describes how the PT works. It includes: • Information about PT components and subsystems How the Segway PT Works The PT works like the human body, using technology called dynamic stabilization to maintain its balance and move forward or backward. When walking, if you lean forward, you take a step forward to keep your balance. If you lean back, you step back. On a PT when you lean forward or back the machine powers the Wheels in the direction that you lean.
How the Segway PT Works (cont.) Slow Speed Roll Compensation Feature The PT utilizes a feature called Roll Compensation that separates steering input from terrain changes. This allows the rider to ride in a straight line over uneven terrain by keeping the LeanSteer Frame oriented straight up and down. When riding at low speeds and on slopes, Roll Compensation is reduced, allowing for more precise control at slow speeds as well as reducing steering drift during power on.
Segway PT Components and Subsystems WARNING All Segway PT parts must be approved by Segway, and properly installed. Never attempt to stand on a PT without the LeanSteer Frame attached and secured. Using your PT without all parts properly installed could damage your PT and result in serious injury from loss of control, collisions, and falls. Handlebar WARNING Do not modify the Segway PT.
Segway PT Components and Subsystems (cont.) The PT has been designed with concern for the safety of the rider and those who may be nearby. Redundant subsystems maintain controlled operation of the PT in the unlikely event of a component failure. If one component in a subsystem fails, the other component continues to operate, allowing you to come to a complete and safe stop before stepping off.
Powerbase The Powerbase consists of the following parts: • Mats/Console • Rider Detect Sensors • Controller Boards Charge Indicator lights • Motors • Balance Sensor Assembly • Running Lights Console Front Running lights Mats Your PT comes with two Mats installed. These Mats protect the Rider Detect Sensors located beneath them, as well as provide a comfortable surface on which to stand. Mats should be secured in place prior to riding.
Segway PT Components and Subsystems (cont.) Balance Indicator Lights Five Balance Indicator lights are located on the Console. These lights provide visual feedback about the balancing status of the PT, and help the rider determine when it is safe to step onto the Mats (see Figure 16). Table 3 describes the Balance Indicator light patterns, and the corresponding balance status of the PT.
Green Balance Indicator lights indicate that the PT is ready to be stepped on, or that a rider is already on: • One green Balance Indicator light in the center The PT is in Standby Mode, ready for the rider to step on. Table 3: Balance Indicator Light Patterns Segway PT Status Light Pattern Not Ready. Do not step on. Off: No Balance Indicator lights are illuminated. Red: One or more Balance Indicator lights are red. Ready. Step on.
Segway PT Components and Subsystems (cont.) Battery Charge Indicator Lights Two Battery Charge Indicator lights on the Console indicate the charge status of the Batteries when the PT is plugged in. The front Battery Charge Indicator light corresponds to the front Battery and the rear Battery Charge Indicator light corresponds to the rear Battery (see Figure 17). Rear For more information, see "Battery Charge Indicator Lights" (p. 89).
Rider Detect Sensors WARNING To prevent a riderless PT from traveling on its own, never let go of it while it is in Balance Mode. It will travel some distance on its own before shutting down, risking injury to others and damage to the PT. WARNING Never place anything on the Mats, except your feet. Doing so could interfere with the Rider Detect Sensors and allow the PT to travel on its own, risking running into a person or property, and causing injury or damage.
Segway PT Components and Subsystems (cont.) Controller Boards The two Controller Boards receive input from the PT’s Batteries, Motors, Rider Detect Sensors, LeanSteer Sensors, rate, and tilt sensors. Based on this input, the Controller Boards send commands to the Motors that turn the Wheels. If the system senses a malfunction in a critical component or a Battery that is depleted beyond its safe limit, the PT will perform a Safety Shutdown. For more information on Safety Shutdown, see "Safety Shutdown" (p.
Motors Each Wheel is independently driven by redundant, high-speed electric Motors that are quiet and efficient. Each Motor is computer controlled to precisely regulate the PT’s motion. Each Motor is wound as two separate electrical circuits, capable of independent operation, acting as one mechanical entity. If either winding in a Motor fails, the PT will perform a Safety Shutdown. For more information on Safety Shutdown, see "Safety Shutdown" (p. 57).
Segway PT Components and Subsystems (cont.) Balance Sensor Assembly The Balance Sensor Assembly contains five angular rate sensors (solid state gyroscopes) and two tilt sensors. The Balance Sensor Assembly sends information about the PT’s orientation to the Controller Boards. All sensors are constantly monitored by the PT to ensure each is operating correctly. If one of these sensors fails, the PT will perform a Safety Shutdown. For more information on Safety Shutdown, see "Safety Shutdown" (p. 57).
Running Lights The PT Running Lights, located at the front and rear of the Powerbase (see Figure 22), are intended to make the PT and rider more visible to others in low-light conditions. The Running Lights turn on automatically and stay on until the PT is powered down. PT Running Lights are not user-serviceable; if there are any problems with the Running Lights, contact your Segway dealer.
Batteries The two PT Batteries are sealed units (when properly installed) that require no maintenance other than proper charging and storage. The Batteries are interchangeable and can each be installed in either the front or rear of the Powerbase. For the PT to operate, both Batteries must be installed, and both must be of the same chemistry/manufacture type. If one Battery fails or is depleted beyond its safe limit, the PT will perform a Safety Shutdown.
The InfoKey Controller Beginner Button Information Display Button This chapter describes how the InfoKey Controller works. It includes: • A description of the InfoKey Controller and its display, buttons and icons, and functionality. Display InfoKey Controller Use the InfoKey Controller to operate and monitor your PT.

Safety Alerts This chapter describes the Segway PT’s safety alerts. The safety alerts include: • Speed Limiter • Stick Shake Warning • Safety Shutdown It is important that you recognize these alerts and know how to respond appropriately before you ride your PT. WARNING Read and follow all the instructions in the User Manual and watch the Safety Video for important safety information about the Speed Limiter, Stick Shake, and Safety Shutdown safety alerts. NOTE: Not every safety issue triggers an alert.
Speed Limiter When you approach the maximum allowed speed, the PT’s Speed Limiter will push the Handlebar back to slow you down (see Figure 27). WARNING Riding against the Handlebar can cause loss of control, collisions, falls, and injury. The PT’s Speed Limiter is an alert that you are moving too fast! When the Speed Limiter pushes the Handlebar back, stop leaning forward and slow down. Always leave a gap between yourself and the Handlebar as shown in Figure 28.
NOTE: Conditions that may cause the Speed Limiter to activate when you are traveling at less than the maximum speed allowed for your operating mode include: • Riding up or down a steep hill • Riding on bumpy terrain • Riding with fewer than three Rider Detect Sensors depressed • The first few seconds after you power on and step on the Powerbase • Low Battery charge • Batteries that are too hot or too cold • Riding down a hill with fully charged Batteries Because of regenerative charging, if the Batteries ar
Stick Shake Warning One of the ways that the PT notifies you when you are at risk of falling is by shaking the Handlebar and making growling noises. This is called the Stick Shake Warning. The Stick Shake Warning can occur in conjunction with, or independent of the Speed Limiter and Safety Shutdown alert, depending on your riding situation (see Figure 29). Rider On If the Stick Shake Warning occurs while riding, slow down. If the Stick Shake Warning persists, come to a stop and safely step off the PT.
When riding, the Stick Shake Warning occurs if you demand too much power from the PT. The Stick Shake Warning can happen when riding on a steep slope, over rough terrain, against an obstacle, or when accelerating or decelerating abruptly. The Stick Shake Warning also occurs if you ride backward too fast or if you try to step on the PT when it is not ready to balance.
Stick Shake Warning (cont.) Rider Off You do not have to be riding the PT for the Stick Shake Warning to occur. The Stick Shake Warning occurs if the PT is moved too quickly while in Riderless Balance Mode. Riderless Balance Mode is when the PT is in Balance mode without a rider standing on the Powerbase. The Stick Shake Warning also occurs if the Wheels spin as you pull the PT over a curb or up stairs.
Safety Shutdown WARNING Do not get back on the Segway PT after a Safety Shutdown until the condition that caused the Safety Shutdown has been identified and corrected. WARNING Never restart and ride your Segway PT after it has indicated an empty Battery condition or performed Safety Shutdown due to low Battery. The PT may not have enough power to keep you balanced, especially if you demand a lot of power at once. If you restart and continue riding, you risk falling.
Safety Shutdown (cont.) WARNING Theft detection systems, such as the type used in some libraries and retail stores can interfere with the Segway PT’s ability to balance and/or cause the PT to perform a Safety Shutdown. Do not ride within 5 feet (1.5 meters) of any theft detection system. Table 9 shows the InfoKey Controller icon that displays when a Safety Shutdown occurs. The table also describes the recommended action you should take.
Empty Battery Condition The PT notifies you of a pending empty Battery condition before starting a Safety Shutdown. An unhappy face icon displays on the InfoKey Controller, the PT’s speed is limited, and the PT emits a warning tone. Whenever the PT notifies you of a pending empty Battery condition, come to a controlled stop and safely step off of the PT before the Safety Shutdown begins. Table 10 shows the InfoKey Controller icon that displays when a pending empty Battery notification occurs.

Riding Your Segway PT This section describes how to ride the Segway PT. It discusses riding for the first time and gives guidelines and helpful hints for all rides. Follow these steps to learn to ride your PT. It is important that you practice riding in a controlled, familiar environment until you are comfortable using your PT and InfoKey Controller. Before riding, make sure your PT is assembled and charged. See "Assembling Your Segway PT" (p. 17), and "Charging Your Batteries" (p. 87).
Avoiding Hazards The PT is highly maneuverable and allows you to easily navigate around obstacles. However, to prevent the loss of traction, you must always be careful when riding and learn to identify and avoid slippery, icy, or wet surfaces, loose materials (sand/gravel), steep slopes, and obstacles. Stop and step off your PT and use Riderless Balance Mode (p. 79) to move your PT over unsafe surfaces or terrain.
Avoiding Trips Trips occur when the PT’s Wheels or Powerbase encounter an obstacle or terrain change that prevents the PT from moving, bringing it to an abrupt stop and potentially causing a fall. • Avoid holes, curbs, steps, and other obstacles. • Avoid riding over any surface where the bottom of the PT may strike any object. • Use caution when riding over any terrain change such as pavement to grass, or over a threshold or speed bump.
Avoiding Tips (cont.) • Stay centered on narrow sidewalks or elevated paths. • Avoid turning when maneuvering backward. • Make sure that one Wheel does not drop off a curb.
Step 1: Preparing for Your Ride To prepare for your first ride: 1. Select an appropriate area for your first ride. This area may be indoors or outdoors and should measure at least 12 feet by 12 feet (4 meters by 4 meters). It must have a level, smooth riding surface with good traction and should be free of obstructions and away from vehicles, bicycles, pets, small children, and other distractions. 2.
Step 2: Powering On the Segway PT Using the InfoKey Controller, power on your PT by pressing the Power/ Standby button. The Power/Standby button is located on the bottom lefthand side of the InfoKey Controller. You will hear a tone from the PT and the Balance Indicator lights will illuminate to indicate the power is ON and the PT is in Standby Mode. WARNING Do not step onto the PT yet! The PT is powered on, but is not balancing.
Step 3: Confirming the Beginner Setting Beginner button Ensure the Beginner Setting is enabled by confirming the Turtle icon is displayed on the InfoKey Controller. Turtle icon WARNING For your first ride, the Segway PT is set to operate exclusively with the Beginner Setting enabled. If the Turtle icon does not display, DO NOT ride the PT until you enable the Beginner Setting. See "InfoKey Controller Buttons and Display" (p. 39).
Step 4: Before Stepping On The Segway PT is on, but it is not balancing. While standing behind the PT, center the Handlebar and level the Powerbase. Use the Balance Indicator lights to help you. If any of the four outer Balance Indicator lights are red, tilt the Powerbase or Handlebar in the opposite direction of the light(s). When the PT is ready to enter Balance Mode, the center Balance Indicator light will light up green. Make sure your InfoKey Controller is installed in the Dock prior to stepping on.
Step 5: Stepping On Before you attempt to step on for the first time: • Have your spotter stand in front of the PT, face you, and hold the Handlebar securely with both hands. Your spotter should be prepared to firmly hold the PT to keep it from moving. • Remember, the PT will move forward, backward or turn if you move the Handlebar. Avoid pushing, pulling, or leaning the Handlebar as you step on. • Confirm the center Balance Indicator light is green. To step onto the PT: 1.
Step 5: Stepping On (cont.) Figure 44 shows the displays that appear on the Console and the InfoKey Controller as you step onto the PT. Ready for rider to step on the PT Rider on PT in Balance Mode Figure 44: Stepping On Keep the Powerbase level to remain stationary. The correct position for standing in place is shown in Figure 45.
Step 6: Moving Forward and Backward The Segway PT moves forward and backward in response to changes in your position. When standing on the Powerbase, to move forward or backward: 1. With your spotter available to assist you, slowly lean forward and feel the PT move forward. Then stop leaning forward and feel it slow down and stop. Do this a few times. WARNING Avoid rocking back and forth or shifting your weight abruptly, as this could result in a loss of traction and cause a fall. 2.
Step 7: Stopping Stop the Segway PT by shifting your weight away from the direction you are moving. To stop the PT: 1. When you are moving forward, gently shift your hips back (as if you are preparing to sit down) to bring the PT to a stop. 2. Once stopped, center your weight over the Powerbase to remain stationary. If you continue to lean back, you will move backward. 3. Practice choosing a spot on the ground, and coming to a smooth controlled stop at that spot. Then remain stationary.
Step 8: Turning The Segway PT turns in the direction that you lean the Handlebar. You turn the PT by leaning the Handlebar left or right. Turning In Place First, practice turning in place. To turn in place, slowly pivot the Handlebar to the side in the direction that you want to turn. The PT will rotate in that direction, turning in place. Practice turning to the right and to the left using this technique.
Step 9: Stepping Off When you are ready to step off the Segway PT for the first time, your spotter should hold the Handlebar. Remain stationary by keeping your weight centered over the Wheels and Powerbase and keep the Handlebar vertical. To step off the PT: 1. Without leaning backward or to the side, step off the PT, one foot at a time. WARNING Be careful not to pull back or turn the Handlebar while you are stepping off the Segway PT. 2.
Step 10: Securing Your Segway PT The Segway PT provides a Security function in case you need to leave your PT unattended. The Security function includes an alarm and uses the motors to make it difficult to move your PT. The best way to discourage tampering with your PT is to keep it in a secure indoor location with the InfoKey Controller stored separately. The Security function is intended for use when you remain in the general area of the PT, and are able to respond to an alarm.
Step 11: Powering Off the Segway PT 1. Power off the Segway PT by pressing and holding the Power/Standby button on the InfoKey Controller for two seconds. 2. The display on the InfoKey Controller will show a sleepy face and the PT will emit a tone as it powers off.
Practice Riding You will need to become very familiar with your Segway PT before you attempt to ride outside of your controlled practice environment. The more you practice, the safer you will be when you move into new places. Remember the following as you practice: • Use the Beginner Setting and ride in areas free of obstacles and distractions until you are comfortable on your PT.
Practice Riding (cont.) Navigating Terrain With practice, you can learn to ride over many different types of terrain, provided you avoid slippery surfaces, loose materials, steep slopes, and obstacles. Always proceed slowly over unfamiliar terrain. Never allow the PT to become airborne, even for short periods of time, because the PT has no traction when airborne, and you could lose control upon landing. Terrain Compensation The PT is designed to compensate for uneven terrain.
1. Step off of the Mats. 2. Check the Console and verify the PT is in Riderless Balance Mode (see Table 3, p. 31). 3. Walk around so you are in front of the PT. 4. Carefully guide the PT to the stairs and align the Wheels perpendicular to the stairs or curb. 5. Always stand above the PT, facing the Handlebar. Gently guide the PT up or down, one step at a time. Riding Etiquette User proper etiquette when riding your PT. • Be careful and considerate of others.
Riding Etiquette (cont.) • When riding with other PT riders, maintain a safe distance, identify hazards and obstacles, and do not ride side-by-side unless there is plenty of room left for pedestrians. • Do not park your PT in a way that blocks pedestrian traffic. • Cross roads at designated crosswalks or signaled intersections. Do not jaywalk/ride. • Only travel on a road when a pedestrian way is not available or when sidewalk use is not allowed.
• Wear a helmet. Whenever you ride your PT wear a helmet that fits properly with the chin strap in place. Use an approved bicycle or skateboard helmet that provides protection for the back of your head. Depending on riding conditions and your riding experience, consider using additional protective equipment such as gloves, eye protection, wrist guards, and knee pads. Wear footwear that protects your feet and provides adequate support and comfort.
Riding Tips and Safety Guidelines Recap (cont.) • Do not wear loose clothing that can catch in the Tires and prevent proper steering. • No passengers. The PT is for one rider. Do not ride double or carry any passengers. Do not carry a child in your arms or in a child carrier while riding. Expectant mothers should not ride the PT. • Do not exceed the maximum weight limit (rider and all cargo) specified in this Manual.
• When riding, keep both hands on the Handlebar and both feet on the Mats. Be relaxed. Ride in a relaxed position with your knees and elbows slightly bent and head up. Do not attempt to carry any object in your hand(s). If you need to carry any object, use a cargo accessory that is recommended by Segway or a securely attached backpack with both shoulder straps in place. • Never restart and ride your PT after it has indicated an empty Battery condition or performed a low Battery Safety Shutdown.
Riding Tips and Safety Guidelines Recap (cont.) • Leave a gap! Leave a gap between yourself and the Handlebar. Do not lean over or into the Handlebar. Leaning over or into the Handlebar dramatically increases the risk of loss of control, collisions, and falls. • Do not ride the PT if you suffer any impairment to balance. • The PT has not been designed, tested, or approved as a medical device.
Segway PT Batteries This chapter describes: • Battery Safety • Battery Specifications • Charging the Segway PT Batteries Battery Safety WARNING • Do not use a Battery if the Battery casing is broken or if the Battery emits an unusual odor, smoke, or excessive heat or leaks any substance. Avoid contact with any substance seeping from the Batteries. • Keep out of reach of children and pets. Exposure to Battery voltage could result in death or serious injury.
Battery Safety (cont.) • Do not submerge the Batteries or powerbase in water. If you suspect the Batteries or powerbase have been submerged or experienced water intrusion, call Segway Technical Support immediately at 1-866-473-4929, prompt #2.

CAUTION Failure to charge the Batteries could result in damage to the Batteries.
Charging Your Batteries (cont.) Charge Port WARNING Do not insert the Power Cord plug if the Charge Port, Power Cord, or AC Power outlet is wet. To charge the Batteries: 1. Put your PT in a clean, dry place, within the recommended charging temperature range. 2. Open the Charge Port on the back of your PT’s Console (see Figure 57). 3. Verify that the Charge Port, Power Cord, and AC Power outlet are clean, dry, and free of debris. 4.
Unplugging the Segway PT When you are ready to use your PT, remove the Power Cord, then close the Charge Port Cover as follows: 1. Disconnect the Power Cord from the Charge Port on the PT. 2. Disconnect the Power Cord from the grounded AC outlet. 3. Store the Power Cord. 4. Close the Charge Port Cover. CAUTION Always keep the Charge Port Cover closed, except when you are charging the Segway PT.
Regenerative Braking The Segway PT has a regenerative braking system that charges the Batteries when descending a hill or slowing down. When you ride down a hill, you may notice an increase in the Battery charge level. If your Batteries are already completely full at the top of a hill, when you descend, you may feel the Speed Limiter engage to keep the PT from overcharging its Batteries. For more information on the Speed Limiter, see "Safety Shutdown" (p. 57).
Surface Charge (Partial Charge) Whenever you do not fully charge the PT’s Batteries, surface charge or partial charge may affect the accuracy of the Battery charge level display, causing it to show a higher charge level than actually exists. After you power on, check the Battery charge level display and then ride for at least three or four minutes and check the Battery charge level display again.
Recalibrating the Battery Charge Level Display WARNING Do not ride your Segway PT to full Battery depletion. To safely discharge Batteries below the bottom bar, you should leave your PT powered on in Balance Mode leaning against a wall in a secure location. CAUTION To avoid injury, damage, and to deter theft, be sure your Segway PT discharges in a safe, secure location, powered on in Riderless Balance Mode.
How Temperature Affects Performance The Batteries are usually significantly warmer than the air temperature due to heating that occurs as electricity is delivered from them (while riding) and to them (while charging). Table 12: Riding in Hot and Cold Temperatures Display Icon Description Recommended Action Riding in Hot or Cold Temperatures The Batteries will run at the highest efficiency when you operate them nearest the center of the recommended operating temperature range.
Replacing Batteries Your Segway PT is powered by two rechargeable Li-ion Batteries. With normal usage and proper maintenance, Batteries should last the equivalent of 600 to 1000 full charges. As your Batteries near the end of their useful life, they need more frequent charging and your PT’s range will be reduced. To order replacement Batteries, contact an Authorized Segway Dealer or Distributor.
Battery Transportation, Shipping, and Disposal If you are transporting your Segway PT, protect the Batteries to avoid damage. Do not expose the Batteries to direct heat or moisture, and avoid heavy vibration during transportation. WARNING Do not use or transport a Battery if the casing breaks open, leaks any substance, becomes excessively hot, or if you detect an unusual odor.

Maintaining Your Segway PT The Segway PT is designed to be virtually maintenance free. Make sure it is clean, all parts are installed and functioning properly, Batteries are charged, and Tires are properly inflated prior to riding. Never open the Console, Powerbase, or Gearboxes. These are not user-serviceable parts.
Maintaining Tires and Wheels WARNING The tire pressure stated on affixed Wheel labels supersedes any recommended pressure stated on the Tires. Higher pressure reduces suspension performance and traction, and increases risk of loss of control, collisions, and falls. Lower pressure reduces range and increases risk of damage to the Tire/ Wheel Assembly. Unequal pressure causes the Segway PT to turn in the direction of the lower pressure tire.
Cleaning Your Segway PT WARNING Do not clean the Mat or Tires with any specialized cleaners. Use of such products may reduce traction, increasing the risk of a fall. To clean your Segway PT: 1. Make sure the PT is unplugged and powered off. 2. Always close the Charge Port Cover after charging and prior to cleaning. 3. Gently clean your Segway PT with soap and water and a soft cloth. Avoid Submerging Your Segway PT WARNING Do not wash the Segway PT with a power washer or high pressure hose.
Storing Your Segway PT To store your Segway PT for the Winter or long periods of time, do the following to ensure it will always be ready to supply you with maximum performance: Segway PT • Store your PT (and its Batteries) indoors, in a place that is free of moisture and humidity, with an ambient temperature of -4° F – 122° F (-20° C – 50° C). • Clean your PT. • Remove the InfoKey battery. • Inflate your tires to the proper pressure (p. 12). • You may want to cover your PT to prevent dust accumulation.
Servicing Your Segway PT This chapter describes how to service your Segway PT. General Information WARNING • Always shut down your Segway PT and unplug the AC Power Cord before performing any maintenance or installing any part or accessory. • Do not attempt to open the Powerbase or Console. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. By opening the Powerbase or Console you risk electric shock injury. Also, you could void your limited warranty, damage your PT, and render it unsafe to use.
