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. After you have stepped off, continue to hold the Handlebar in place.
If you let go, the PT will roll forward and can potentially cause injury
or damage.
3. When you step off, the PT enters Riderless Balance Mode. In
Riderless Balance Mode, the PT moves forward, backward and turns
in response to how you move the Handlebar. Use Riderless Balance
Mode to move the PT over curbs or terrain where it is unsafe or
undesirable to ride.
Figure 51 shows the Balance Indicator lights and the InfoKey Controller
display as you step off the PT.
NOTE:
If you move too fast in Riderless Balance Mode, the PT will give the Stick
Shake Warning and transition to Standby Mode.
