Warranty Policy
Disclaimer: The electric scooters sold by AE SPORTS AUSTRALIA are all tools for entertainment only, and cannot be used as vehicles.
Using any mobility device has the potential risk of getting injured, such as falling off a scooter due to misoperation, slippery roads, sudden failure of the device, etc. When you buy an electric scooter, you acknowledge that you use the product at your own risk. We do not take the responsibility for illegal riding, and for any fines, injuries, or traffic accidents.
The limitation on riding speed varies from state to state in Australia. Customers have the responsibility of confirming and obeying the most recent relevant local regulations to use an electric scooter properly.
Customers are required to read all documents including the user manual and the warranty policy prior to using the product properly. Future after-sale service is subject to this warranty policy.
Scope of Warranty
Within 12 months from the date of purchase, the warranty will cover the following four major parts under normal use within 2000 km travel distance. Travel distance over 2000 km a year will be considered using the product as a vehicle or using it for commercial purposes, and these uses will not be covered by warranty.
Motor: when the motor has faults.
Battery: when the battery has faults.
Brake: when a brake controller has faults.
Scooter Frame: detachment of welding (damage and crack caused by impact or rust not covered by warranty)
Support Service: For other components damaged in use within 12 months, the merchant can provide a support service. Customers may get technical consultations for free and buy parts from us. Customers may choose to have a problem fixed by us, or we can send replacement parts to a customer. Whether to charge material costs, shipping fees, and labor fee depends on whether a problem is covered by the warranty.
Warranty Period: The warranty period is limited to 12 months from the date of purchase.
When you’re aware the product is not working properly, you should immediately stop using the product to avoid deterioration of a problem and return it for check timely. Any further damage to the product caused by continuing to use it will be at the customer’s responsibility/cost.
Local customers need to contact us first and return the product to us for repair during the warranty period. Broken components that are covered by the warranty will be repaired or replaced with original components or alternatives, and material and labor are borne by us.
Costs associated with returning the whole product or parts will be borne by you, the customer. The transportation of the replacement components or product back to a customer will be arranged at the expense of the customer.
Customers can get instruction and consultation with us for free if you choose to have a replacement component installed by yourself. We will not bear the labor cost that associates with repair by yourself or at other third-party shops. Please understand that customers need to wait for spare parts if they are temporarily out of stock.
Due to unforeseen circumstances that may prevent us from offering on-site repair services, such as customers relocating to other states or countries, or our business ceasing operations, we will make every effort to continue supplying warranty parts and assist customers in repairing their scooters by providing instructions if possible.
What Is Not Covered By The Warranty?
The following damages are considered out of warranty: Any damage which results from abuse, misuse, or neglect including but limited to, fire, collision, water damage, riding over obstacles, or theft. To be specific:

Damage to the product caused by collision or scratches in use is not covered by the warranty. Plastic covers, mudguards, kickstands, tires, rims, and motor wires damaged in use are not covered by the warranty. Damage rising from broken wires or rims in use is not covered by warranty. Screw missing is not covered by warranty.
Damage caused by product misuse or abuse like (but not limited to) bad storage, impact, rust corrosion, water ingress, jump, collision, accidents, overloading, lack of regular maintenance (at least once half a year or every 1000km if use regularly), negligence, modification, or repair without our consent is not covered by the warranty.
