Under normal circumstances, your
i-BRAKE is maintenance-free and
well-protected against external
environmental influences.
To avoid malfunctions caused
2
by water entering the compo-
nents, you should not use high-
pressurized water for cleaning
(i.e. high-pressure cleaners or
strong water jets).
» Do not use any agressive
cleansers, gasoline, petroleum or
similar for cleaning.
» After cleaning your bicycle, you
should do a test braking so that
any moisture in the brake
system can be eliminated.
» During the winter season, you
should clean your bicycle in
shorter intervals so that winter
road salt cannot cause any
damage.

The complete brake anchor
plate absolutely must be
replaced by a qualified specialist if
oil or other greasy substances have
contaminated the brake lining. An
oily brake lining reduces the braking
performance up to a complete brake
failure. Accidents with serious
injuries may result.
