Maintenance
QWIC advises you to take a maintenance check-up at
your dealer on a regular basis.
QWIC advises you to submit your electric bicycle
to a mayor check-up at least once a year. The first
maintenance visit is recommended after 250 km or
after 3 months from purchasing. Additional service
would be advised when necessary. For example before
the cycling season starts or before a long cycling tour.
Please note that taking a check-up on a regular basis
will decrease the possibility of unnecessary damages
and costs!
Of course you can contribute as well to the
topcondition of your bicycle. In the next sections some
tips.
Speed pedelecs are subject to type-approval.
By replacing type-approved components with
different models, the type-approval is cancelled
for the whole bike. Only allow your dealer to
replace components on your bike.

can damage the electronics of the bike. The
warranty will expire.
