Switching Your Electric Scooter Display from Kilometers to Miles

With the rising popularity of electric scooters as a mode of eco-friendly transportation, understanding the functionality of your e-scooter's display settings is essential. One of the common queries among riders is how to change the unit of distance measurement from kilometers (km) to miles per hour (mph). The process typically involves a few simple steps, which can vary depending on the brand and model of your electric scooter.


Before attempting to change the settings, always refer to your scooter's user manual for specific instructions as each manufacturer may have a slightly different method. Here is a general guide to help you make the switch from km to mph:



  1. Power on your electric scooter.

  2. Access the settings menu on the scooter's display. This is usually done by pressing a combination of buttons. Commonly, you would press and hold the mode or power button for a few seconds.

  3. Scroll through the menu options until you find the units setting. This could be labeled differently, such as 'Speed Unit' or 'Measurement Unit'.

  4. Select the option to change from kilometers to miles. This may require pressing a specific button or selecting it from a submenu.

  5. Save your new setting by exiting the menu, often by pressing the power or mode button again.


Some electric scooters may have a smartphone app that connects with the scooter, which allows you to change unit preferences from your mobile device. This can make switching from km to mph even more convenient. Ensure your scooter's firmware is up-to-date to prevent any issues during this process.


After adjusting the setting, it's a good idea to take a test ride and ensure that the speedometer reflects the correct unit of measurement. Once verified, you can enjoy your rides with a display that aligns with your preferred measurement system.


If you find that your scooter model does not allow an easy switch between kilometers and miles, you may need to consult the manufacturer or an experienced technician for assistance. It is essential not to alter or tamper with the scooter's electronics on your own, as this can void warranties and potentially cause harm to the scooter's system or your safety.


In summary, changing your electric scooter from showing km to mph should be a quick and straightforward process. Always prioritize understanding your scooter's features for a safer and more enjoyable ride.
