MAINTENANCE
BICYCLE CARE
WARNING:
If you do not have the experience, skill, and tools to complete maintenance
and adjustment of your E-bike, Glion strongly recommends having a certified, reputable
bike mechanic maintain, tune, and ensure the bike is safe to ride.
To ensure safe riding conditions you must properly maintain your E-bike. Follow these basic
guidelines and see a certified, reputable bike mechanic at regular intervals to ensure your E-bike is
safe for use and fun to ride.
•
Properly maintain batteries by keeping them fully charged when between uses of up to two
weeks apart. See Long-Term Battery Storage section of manual for information on storing
the battery for longer than two weeks between rides.
•
Never immerse or submerge the bike or any components in water or liquid, which can damage
the electrical system.
•
Periodically check wiring and connectors to ensure there is no damage and the connectors are
secure.
•
To clean your E-bike, turn the bike and battery off and wipe the frame with a clean, damp
cloth. If needed, apply a mild, non- corrosive detergent mixture to the damp cloth and wipe
the frame. Dry by wiping with a clean, dry cloth. Never use high-pressure water on your bike.
Wipe down your bike frequently and wipe or spray all unpainted mechanical parts with anti-
rust treatment.
•
Store under shelter and in an upright position; avoid leaving the bike in the rain or exposed to
corrosive substances such as water, salt, or de-icing substances. If exposed to rain, dry your
bike afterward, and apply an anti-rust treatment to the chain and other unpainted steel
surfaces.
•
Avoid riding on the beach, in coastal areas with high-salinity fog, or on surfaces treated with
salt or de-icing compounds. Doing so exposes your bike to salt or other substances that are
very corrosive. Corrosion of electrical components can lead to permanent, irreversible damage
that can cause battery failure, electrical system failure, or electrical fire. Damage from
corrosion is not covered under warranty.
•
If the hub and bottom bracket bearings have been submerged in water or liquid, they
should be taken out and re- greased. This will prevent accelerated bearing
deterioration.
•
If painted metal parts become scratched or chipped, use touch up paint or nail polish to
prevent rust.
•
Regularly clean and lubricate all moving parts; tighten and adjust components as required.
•
Regularly inspect all pre-attached and optional component hardware to ensure proper
torque spec, secure attachment, and good working condition.
See the Pre-Ride Safety Checklist and Recommended Service Intervals sections below for more
detailed information.
