• Battery locked with key (before each

• Check the brakes.
• Check tyre pressure and damage.
• Check the tightness of the wheels.
• Check the stem and handlebars for
tightness.
• Store your bike carefully in a clean and
dry place.
• Recharge your battery.
• Check the stem and handlebars for play.
• Check the cassette and the chain.

necessary.
• Check the brake pads for wear, replace
them if necessary.
• Check the wheel tread and spoke tension.
Like any mechanical component, the YUVY
is subject to high stress and wear. Different
materials and components may react
differently to wear or fatigue.
If the expected life of a component has been
exceeded, it may suddenly break, with the risk
of injury to the rider.
Cracks, scratches and discolouration in areas
of high stress indicate that the component
has exceeded its service life and should be
replaced.
List of the different wear elements :
• Brake components (pads, discs) Tyres,
tubes, rim bottoms
• Cables and sheaths

5.
Check regularly for wearing parts, please refer
to the component’s manual or contact your
retailer.
Prevention is better than cure!
The chain of your bike is stressed during use,
especially if you use high assistance modes.
Check it regularly for wear and tear and
replace it regularly. Ask your dealer for advice
if you are unsure.
Take the time to check regularly that no links
are bent or open, as they could break while
you are riding and cause you to fall.
WARNING!
Never spray oil on the chain without rst
protecting the brake discs.
Without this, ne droplets can contaminate the
disc and pads and thus greatly reduce braking
performance.
Contaminated pads should be replaced
immediately.
