RECOMMENDATIONS AND MAINTENANCE

NCM

MUNICH N8C 36V

6. RECOMMENDATIONS AND MAINTENANCE

6.1 General Requirements 

NCM E-bikes use metal shells to cover the electric components, so we strongly advise against the use of excessive water 

to wash the shells and parts around them. Use a soft cloth with a neutral solution to wipe the dirt off the shells. Afterward, 

wipe everything dry with a clean soft cloth.

Do not use high-pressure water or air hoses for cleaning; this can force water into electrical components, which may 

cause malfunctioning.

Do not wash plastic components with excessive water. When the internal electrical parts are affected by water the 

insulator may corrode, leading to power-drain or other problems. 

Do not use soap solutions to wash the metal components. Non-neutral solutions may cause discoloration, distortion, 

scratching, etc.

Avoid leaving the bike outdoors

When not riding, keep the bike in a location where it will be protected from snow, rain, sun, etc. Snow and rain can cause 

the bike to corrode. Ultraviolet rays from the sun can cause unnecessary fading of paint or crack any rubber or plastic on 

the bike.

6.2 Maintenance Schedule

To keep your NCM E-bike in optimal condition and your riding experience at its most enjoyable, we strongly recommend 

following the suggested maintenance schedule. You should study it and allow it to become second nature to your riding.
