WARNING: Remove the battery pack before washing your e-bike! Keep the battery pack and
charger away from water to prevent electrical shock and damage to the charger or batteries.
CARE AND CLEANING:
Clean the e-bike with a mild soap and a sponge. DO NOT use a power hose or washer. Gently
rinse with water. Avoid spraying water directly onto the control switches, motor and front hub
bearings. Do not spray water inside the battery compartment. Dry the frame mounted electrical
connector in the battery compartment before reinstalling the battery pack. Use automotive wax to
protect painted surfaces. Lubricate the chain periodically to help prevent corrosion and minimize
wear.
MECHANICAL SAFETY CHECK :
The mechanical safety check is a simple, sixty-second check you should perform whenever you’re
about to get on the e-bike.
Nuts, bolts & straps Lift the front wheel off the ground by two or three inches, and then let it
bounce on the ground. Does anything sound, feel or look loose? Do a quick visual and tactile
inspection of the whole e-bike. Any loose parts or accessories? If so, secure them. If you're not
sure, ask someone with experience to check these items.
Tires & Wheels Tires correctly inflated? Check by putting one hand on the saddle, one on the
intersection of the handlebars and stem, then bouncing your weight on the e-bike while looking at
tire deflection. Compare what you see with how it looks when you know the tires are correctly
inflated. Adjust the tire pressure if necessary.
