5. Owning and Operation

5.1 Maintenance

It’s important to keep the bike in good condition in order to get the full 
performance of the bike and increase it’s lifetime. When you are done 
riding, always clean the bike and follow the “regular inspection” check list.
Charge the bike to a minimum of 30% State Of Charge. Turn the bike off 
with the main switch if it will not be used for more than a week.

5.2 Cleaning

Always be cautious when cleaning the bike. The bikes electrical components 
can be damaged if cleaned improperly which can damage the bike, 
property or persons.

• Always make sure that the bike is standing firmly before washing and  
   don’t forget to turn the bike off.
• Never use a pressure washer or a water hose in order to clean the bike.
   It’s recommended to use pressurised air, a bucket of water together with  
   a cloth and brush.
• When cleaning the chain, use chain cleaner and scrub the chain with a  
   brush. Repeat the cleaning before drying the chain and apply chain lube.
 

5.3 Storing

Follow these following steps to ensure that your CAKE Kalk is always in a 
good condition and to extend the life of the bike. We recommend you to 
ride the bike at least once every month as some the bikes components 
needs to be used in order for them to be in the best condition.
Store the bike indoors away from sunshine to avoid unnecessary ageing or 
discolouration.Make sure to turn the bike off with the main switch (pointing 
down) as it’s otherwise in standby and will drain the battery to an 
unhealthy level which will shorten the lifespan of the battery. Never store 
a bike with an empty battery. The optimal SOC is 30% (1-2 green LEDS on 
the dashboard). If the bike will be stored for a longer period of time, charge 
the bike to 30% SOC (see under dashboard) to maximise the lifespan of the 

battery. Never store your bike in below 10° C, if you are unable to store the 
bike in temperature above that, remove the battery and bring it inside. 
If the bike is unused for too long. The oil inside of the forks can start to leak.

5.4 Crash
In the case of a crash, please go through the bike for any visual or structural 
damage. If you find any damage effecting the handling of the vehicle, stop 
riding to prevent further damage to the vehicle, yourself or the environment 
around you. 

For inspection, please go through the procedures under the chapter 
3 “Regular Inspection and Maintenance”. In case of of a broken or damaged 
component, visit

5.5 Troubleshooting

find the solution. If you can’t find the problem you are experiencing or a 
solution that works for you, contact CAKE directly.

• Start with checking that both the main switch and killswitch is turned 
   on properly.
• Remove the seat to check that the battery is properly connected to 
   the bike.
• Carefully try to give the bike some throttle to climate the possibility of 
   a malfunctioning Dashboard.
