Since our founding, Xiaomi has been dedicated to producing safe, affordable and quality products for our customers. We continue making this our top priority and act proactively to ensure that our users have real-time, comprehensive information regarding our products.

We have received limited reports in relation to potential safety issues associated with the Mi M365 Electric Scooter. Upon investigation, it appears that when not used in accordance with the Safety Reminder and Instructions in the user manual, or when subject to force, certain batches of the product manufactured with aluminium alloy hooks in the folding apparatus, may have the potential to fail and without appropriate maintenance, may cause a fall hazard to the rider.

We are launching a Safety Campaign to alert all customers. Specifically, we are publishing a Safety Notice and rolling out a Repair Programme globally which provides free testing to the affected customers and also replaces the aluminium alloy hook with a stainless steel hook.

Safety Notice

The hook of the Mi M365 Electric Scooter manufactured between September 2017 and October 2018 is made of aviation grade aluminium alloy 6061-T6 which material is widely used for bicycle frames and components.

When the Mi M365 Electric Scooter is subject to overloading such as two people riding the scooter at any one time or subject to high impact movements, the aluminium alloy hook in the folding apparatus may weaken. Without appropriate maintenance, the aluminium alloy hook may fail during subsequent use which may lead the vertical component to fold into the main body while in use.

We ask all customers to take the steps below before using their Mi M365 Electric Scooters:

Step 1: Follow the instructions below to check whether your device has an aluminium alloy hook. If it does not have an aluminium alloy hook, it is not affected by this Safety Campaign.

Step 2: Follow the video instructions and conduct a check of the device.

Step 3: Follow the Dos and Don’ts for your future use.

Step 1: Check whether your device has an aluminium alloy hook
