Tire Pressure
Tire pressure is one of the most critical factors determining the effective
range and efficiency of your MOTORINO™. We recommend maintaining
the maximum pressure indicated on the sidewalls of your tires for maxi-
mum efficiency and handling safety.
WARNING!
In addition to poor range and handling performance, low tire
pressures can increase the load on the controller and motor
causing overheating and possible failure. Riding with the tires
at very low pressures can also result in the tire bead coming
unseated from the rim, leading to a sudden flat with rim and tire
damage, and a possible crash.
CAUTION!
Always use a suitable, accurate tire pressure gauge when filling
tires from any air source.
Using the Supplied Air Compressor
The air compressor supplied with your MOTORINO™ plugs into the 12 V
accessory power outlet. Operation is straightforward, bearing in mind
however that the bike must be switched on for the outlet to be energized
and that using the compressor uses up some of your battery power, albeit
relatively little.
Dealing with a Flat Tire
CAUTION!
Flat tires must be fixed immediately. Just rolling the bike on a very
low or flat tire is a sure way to damage the tire and/or rim. At the very
least, you risk unseating the tire beads from the rim which can make
re-inflation very difficult.
Flats and slow leaks can come from three locations: damage to the tire
itself, a damaged tire valve or loose valve core, and leaks due to wheel
corrosion or damage.
