Cleaning and preventing corrosion
A — Removing and Installing wheels
or brake pads/discs
Leaving water and moisture on Gi Fly could result in the premature failure of the electronics,
battery, or motor systems. Almost all of the frame is covered with moisture-resistant paint to
avoid corrosion. The warranty will not cover premature failure due to corrosion acquired through
neglect.
Here are some best practice recommendations with regards to taking care of your Gi Fly under
wet conditions:
If your Gi Fly has water on it, we recommend that you wipe it dry as soon as possible
with a towel or dry cloth.
The less you expose your Gi Fly to moisture or water, the longer it will last.
Store your Gi Fly inside your house, apartment, or garage.
If you wish to clean Gi Fly, we recommend that you use a damp towel or cloth and
mild liquid soap. Begin by wiping down all areas with a damp towel, then wipe dry
with a dry towel.

Keep your Gi Fly clean and dry whenever possible. Never spray Gi Fly
with a hose or high-pressure cleaning system. Do not use polishes,
waxes, or solvents to clean your Gi Fly.
Caution
Wheels, brake pads, and discs are particularly subject to wear. Please allow a specialty retailer to
check these key parts on a regular basis and replace any worn parts if necessary.
The bike is equipped with disc brakes in both wheels. To remove or
reinstall a wheel, you must rst remove the brake caliper and then
you can adjust the necessary parts to remove the wheel. In the case
of the rear wheel, after removing the brake caliper, it is necessary to
reduce the tension of the belt. The removal and re-installation of the
rear wheel requires special knowledge. Incorrect removal or assem-
bly can result in brake or gear failure, which can cause you to lose
control and fall. See your local bike mechanic if necessary.
Warning
The bike has disc brakes, exercise care in touching the rotor or cali-
per. Disc rotors have sharp edges, and both rotor and caliper can get
very hot during use.
Caution
The bike is equipped with a front disk brake so be careful not to da-
mage the disk, caliper, or brake pads when re-inserting the disk into
the caliper. Never activate a disk brake’s control lever unless the disk
is correctly inserted in the caliper.
