Upon ending a ride you must park the Vehicle in accordance with our parking instructions below. Once the option “end ride” has been selected, you should wait to receive confirmation that the ride has ended. If you leave the Vehicle without properly ending the ride, the Service will continue to run and you will be required to pay for the continued use of the Service. After ending a ride you may no longer make use of the Vehicle and must repeat the unlocking process to gain use again.

Safety First: Prior to using the Vehicle we recommend you inspect the Vehicle for damage (including checking the frame, deck, kick stand, tires, lights and display) and test the brakes and throttle. Make sure you check that the battery is sufficiently charged to get you to where you want to go. If you are using an e-bike, make sure your seat is properly adjusted prior to riding. Before taking off you should take note of the weather and check your surroundings in order to avoid a collision and confirm you have a clear path for movement. Make sure you constantly monitor the weather, the conditions of the Vehicle and your riding environment during the ride and adjust your riding behavior to ensure a safe ride. Should the Vehicle appear defective prior to riding or at any time during your ride you should cease using the Vehicle immediately and report it to us (“Defective Vehicle”).

Dott may request you send a photograph of the Vehicle to evidence that it has been parked correctly. Such request will be made within the App or Third Party Platform (as applicable) when you choose to end a ride and lock the Vehicle. Ending a ride for some Vehicles may involve additional manual steps, these will be communicated to you via the App or Third Party Platform (as applicable).
