Caring for an electric bike
Maintain your batteries as described in the section 'Battery care and safety'. This is
particularly important if batteries are not used for a long period of time.
Regularly check the cables and electrical connections of your bike for damage. Frayed or
heat-damaged cables, loose plugs or poor connections might damage the system.
Store your bike indoors. The condition of a bicycle that is exposed to the weather outdoors
will deteriorate very quickly. Never cover a stored bike with plastic, as condensation could
damage electrical components. Batteries in particular should be stored in a tempera-
ture-con trolled, dry environment.
Read all manuals for the components and be careful before using chemicals, paints or
cleaning products on the bike's electrical components.
Battery Maintenance
To avoid shortening the lifetime of the battery, please follow the steps below:
- Charge the battery after riding when the charge is between 30 % and 40 %.
- Make sure that the battery is not completely discharged.
- Fully charge the battery before storing it for an long period of time.
- Store the battery in a dry place with low levels of humidity.
- Keep the temperature between 5 °C and 20 °C.
- Do not expose the battery to direct sunlight or high temperatures, e.g. in a warehouse.
- Make sure that stored batteries are charged at least once a month. - Make sure that
stored batteries are fully charged at least 3 month.
Motor and Control Maintenance
Moisture, dust or mechanical damage can cause a short circuit. This may cause the battery
to catch fire or explode.
- Clean the outside of the motor and control unit only with a moistened cloth.
-If parts are accidentally completely immersed in water, disconnect the motor from the
batteries immediately and re-commence operation after inspection by the manufacturer.
- Follow the relevant manufacturer's instructions.
Riding
Do not use it until you have carefully read the instructions and understood the performance
of the product; do not lend it to anyone who cannot manipulate the product for riding.
Before riding the bike, check that the brakes are working. When braking, please activate
the rear wheel brake first and then the front wheel brake. Make sure that the brakes are
tight. If the brakes are too loose, tighten them with an Allan key. When riding in the rain or
snow, make sure to increase the braking distance.
Applicable age: Riding between 16 and 65 years.
Please always wear a helmet when riding your bike, obey the traffic rules and do not ride
on motorway and roads with lots of pedestrians. Please check the tyre pressure before
riding.
The recommended tyre pressure is 30-40 PSI.
When riding downhill and on unpaved roads, ensure that the speed does not exceed 15
km/h. When using the motor, be careful not to hit it too hard and keep the rotation shaft
lubricated. It is not allowed to ride with more than the maximum body load (the maximum
load is 100 KG) After use, the bike cannot be parked in the building hall, evacuation stairs,
safety exits, and must be properly parked in accordance with the safety rules.
