The release lever is usually located near the base of the steering column or close to the folding mechanism. This lever locks and unlocks the folding mechanism of the scooter.

Push or pull the release lever to disengage the locking mechanism. It may take a bit of effort, so don’t hesitate to apply some force.

After lifting the handlebars, ensure they are locked into their upright position by pushing the release lever back into the locked position. Double-check to make sure the handlebars are stable and won’t collapse.

Step 6: Final Checks

Before you start riding, double-check all locks and clamps to ensure they are securely fastened. Make sure the scooter is fully operational for a safe riding experience.
