Mastering your P-Settings for Optimum Performance
The VSETT lineup of scooters are known for amazing quality, rider customization capability, and insane performance, but the P-settings (programming codes) seem to stump everyone from experienced riders to people unboxing them for the first time. In this article, we'll explore the P-settings on your VSETT. Specifically, what to adjust, what to leave alone, and what you can do to customize performance.
For this particular article we'll be looking at the VSETT 10+ because it's the most widely purchased model in the VSETT lineup.
Accessing the P-Settings
To first access the P-Settings, long press the + and - buttons. Once in the P-Setting menu, use * to scroll through each setting. To exit this menu, simply wait a few seconds and the P-Settings menu will go away.
Your LCD should look like this:
P01: Backlight Brightness
Level 1 is the Darkest and Level 3 is the Brightest (Factory Default is 3)
P02: Mileage
From this setting you can choose whether to tacking distance by KM or Miles (Default is KM)
P03: Voltage Level
This will directly effect the overall performance of your scooter and should be set to your specific scooter's battery voltage. For example: VSETT 10+ 60V 28Ah should be set to 60V.
Note: the battery gauge are not always accurate, use the voltmeter to more accuracy gauge how much battery life is left during your ride.

Numbers on this setting determine the scooter's dormancy time. 0 means no dormancy. (Default is 5)
P05: Reserve
Skip this setting number
P06: Wheel Diameter
