3. CLEANING YOUR BICYCLE
Proceed as follows:
- Disconnect the battery pack and remove it;
remove the display (see paragraph“3”- Sec-
tion“06”).
- Using a delicate water jet, remove as much dirt
(soil, small stones, sand, grass, etc.) as possible.
- Allow the bicycle to dry.
- Spray the entire bicycle with a suitable deter-
gent.
- Carefully spray every part of the bicycle using a
delicate water jet.
You may also wish to use a sponge or a cloth
during this phase
- Allow the bicycle to dry.
- Cleaning and lubricating the chain:
· pour a few drops of bicycle chain detergent
onto clean, lint-free cotton cloth.
· rub the cloth along the chain.
· feed the chain forward so that the cloth
comes into contact with its entire length.
· request a helper to raise the rear wheel so
that it is not in contact with the ground, then
rotate the pedal crank very slowly in the di-
rection of travel in order to distribute the de-
tergent over the entire length of the chain.
Make sure that the chain is fully lubricated.
· Allow the detergent to evaporate for approx.
1 hour.
· Apply a small quantity of bicycle chain lubri-
cant to the chain links.
Using too much lubricant, or un-
suitable products, may result in
dripping onto the brake disks,
significantly reducing the bicycle
braking efficiency.
• After using your bicycle in very wet
conditions
Clean and lubricate the following parts:
- Chain.
- Sprockets.
- Teeth.
- Gearwheel system.
- Brakes (with the exception of the disk surfaces).
It is important to bear in mind that some
lubricants and maintenance products may
not be suitable for use on your bicycle.
Contact your specialized vendor for
more information.
Using unsuitable lubricants or mainte-
nance products may damage or com-
promise the correct operation of your
bicycle.
Ensure that brake shoes, brake disks and
the braking surfaces on the wheel rims
do not come into contact with mainte-
nance products or lubricating oils, as
this would reduce the braking efficiency
of your bicycle.
Failure to inspect and repair dam-
ages to your bicycle resulting from
a fall, or failure to carry out such
operations correctly, may result in
hazardous riding conditions, fur-
ther falls and accidents.
Do not hesitate to return your bicy-
cle to the vendor or take it to a spe-
cialized bicycle workshop for the
necessary checks and inspections.
This is the only way to be certain of
identifying and repairing worn and
damaged parts safely.
