11. CLEANING AND STORAGE
Do not use high-pressure washers or steam jet cleaners since they can cause water seepage, resulting in property damage
or malfunction of the Drive Unit or battery pack. Should water get inside one of these units, have an authorized dealer inspect
your bicycle.
CARING FOR THE BATTERY PACK
Use a moist, tightly-wrung towel to wipe off dirt on the battery case. Do not pour water directly on the battery pack, such as with a hose.
Do not clean the charge contacts by polishing them with a file or using a wire, etc. Doing so could result in a fault.
STORAGE
Store the system in a place that is:
• Flat and stable
• Well ventilated and free from moisture
• Sheltered from the elements and from direct sunlight
CLEANING AND STORAGE (1 month or longer) and using it again after a long storage period
• When storing the bicycle for a long period (1 month or longer), remove the battery pack and store it using the following procedure.
• Decrease the residual battery capacity to where one or two lamps are lit, and store it indoors in a cool (10 to 20 °C), dry place.
• Check the residual battery capacity once a month, and if only one lamp is flashing, charge the battery pack for about 10 minutes.
Do not let the residual battery capacity become too low.
