The Mi Electric Scooter Essential is a lightweight and stylish electric scooter that can reach a top speed of 20 km/h and has a range of 20 km. It is equipped with 10-inch pneumatic tires, disc brakes on both the front and rear wheels, and has an IP54 waterproof rating.
This is the German-language user manual for the Mi Electric Scooter Essential, listed for model numbers DDHBC11NEB, DDHBC05NEB and DDHBC08NEB. It starts with the package contents and the assembly steps for the handlebar stem and handlebar, then explains how to charge the scooter with the supplied charging adapter and how the LED on the charger changes from red to green when charging is complete.
A central part of the manual covers connecting the scooter to the Mi Home/Xiaomi Home app and activating it, which is required before use: until activation the scooter beeps continuously and speed is limited to 10 km/h. Further sections describe riding, a safety notice with warnings and prohibited riding situations, folding and carrying the scooter, inflating the tires with the valve extension, adjusting the brake cable, and locking the scooter with a password set in the app. This manual is written in German.
