WARNINGS
Guard against rust, water damage, and corrosion
Like any vehicle used outdoors, your e-bike needs the care to ensure it isn’t damaged by the
elements. Follow these steps for a long, healthy life for your e-bike:
•
store under shelter and in an upright position; avoid leaving the bike in the rain or being exposed
to corrosive substances such as water, salt, or de-icing. If exposed to rain, dry your bike afterward,
and apply an anti-rust treatment to the chain and other unpainted steel surfaces.
•
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.
• Use touch-up paint or nail polish to prevent rust if painted metal parts become scratched or
chipped.
• Never immerse or submerge the bike or any components in water or liquid, which can damage
the electrical system. Avoid riding on the beach, 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.
WARNING:
Damage to your e-bike’s electrical system caused in any manner, including water intrusion, can
lead to battery failure, electrical system malfunction, electrical fire, and consequent property damage, injury,
or death. Follow all recommendations to minimize the chance of water damage. If you have any questions,
