Cleaning and servicing
The brake system is not designed for use on an
S pedelec which is placed on its side or turned
upside down. The brake may not function
correctly as a result. This can cause a crash,
which may result in injuries.
If the S pedelec is placed on its side or turned
upside down, apply the brakes a couple of times
before setting off to ensure that they work as
normal
Servicing measures must be performed regularly.
Contact your specialist dealer if you are unsure.
7.1
Cleaning after each ride
7.1.1
Cleaning the suspension fork
Remove dirt and deposits from the stanchions
and deflector seals with a damp cloth.
Check the stanchions for dents, scratches,
staining or leaking oil.
Lubricate the dust seals and stanchions.
7.1.2
Cleaning the pedals
Clean with a brush and soapy water after riding
through dirt or rain.
Service the pedals after cleaning.
Notice
Water may enter the inside of the bearings if you
use a steam jet. This dilutes the lubricant inside,
the friction increases and, as a result, the
bearings are permanently damaged in the long
term.
Never clean the S pedelec with a pressure
washer.
Greased parts, such as the seat post, the
handlebars or the stem, may no longer be safely
and reliably clamped.
Never apply grease or oil to clamping sections.
Required tools and cleaning agents:
