You should recharge your batteries fully prior to putting them in storage for any period of
time and then recharge them once per month when they’re not in use.
Note: You should never recharge your batteries unattended. If at any time you notice
your batteries getting hot to the touch or if they emit any odor, immediately stop the
charging process and contact your local dealer.
Always use the charger that is designed to work with your batteries.
Recharging your e-scooter batteries on a monthly basis should take no longer than a
few hours (until thecharger light turns green).
Storage Temperature
Temperature plays a critical role in the battery performance and life cycle. At higher
temperatures, battery capacity generally increases; as the temperature drops, so does
the capacity. This is why riding your scooter at 20⁰C will give you better performance
and range than say riding at 5⁰C
While keeping the batteries cold may seem like a great idea in theory, you need to make
sure that they do not get too cold. Storing e-scooter batteries in an unheated garage,
garden shed or outdoors will most likely cause them to freeze. This results in permanent
damage to the internal lead plates or plastic casings.
You must make sure that you store your batteries where they won’t freeze.
All battery types, regardless of their chemical make-up, will self-discharge if left unused
for a period of time. Some batteries will have a lower discharge rate than others, so it’s
important to make sure you are taking care of them.
Initial and ongoing adjustments
Brakes
In order to adjust brakes, tighten or loosen the adjuster nut as necessary. Tightening the
nut will bring brake pads closer to the brake drum, loosening the nut will bring brake
pads further from the brake drum.
It is normal for the brakes to wear as they are being used, so frequent adjustments may
be required.
Remember: How fast you can stop is far more important than how fast you can go!
Tire Pressure
Make sure that the air pressure for all tires is between 30-40 PSI. If the tires have less
than the recommended amount of pressure, a decrease in battery usage time, poor
handling, and damage to the tires and rims may occur.
