How does the electric lock function of my Acer AES015 eScooter work?
Your Acer AES015 eScooter has an electric lock function; perfect for when you have to quickly run into a store and you need to leave your eScooter outside. You can activate the e-lock function through the Acer Electric Scooter Series 5 app.
The connection between your Acer AES015 eScooter and smartphone is established via Bluetooth. Therefore, the transmission range of the app is equivalent to the Bluetooth transmission range, which is approximately 7 to 8 meters or 22 to 23 feet.
Note: The transmission distance is influenced or blocked by exterior factors, like walls and buildings.
Locked wheels
The electric lock function only locks the wheels:
- up to a maximum of 60 minutes.
- at a short distance, approximately 7 to 8 meters or 22 to 23 feet (e.g., parked at the entrance of a small convenience store while shopping).
Note: Without connection to the smartphone app, the wheels cannot be locked.
Wheels get unlocked
The Electric Lock automatically unlocks the wheels when:
- 60 minutes have passed.
- the smartphone is out of range/too far from the eScooter.
- the smartphone battery is empty (to prevent you from being unable to unlock the wheels).
Disclaimer: Acer would like to stress that the Electric Lock is not intended as a long-term anti-theft setting. Physical measures (such as using a separate padlock) are more effective in preventing theft of your eScooter.
