8 | Storage
Store your electric scooter and the battery in a dry and well ventilated place at room temperature
(18°C) and air humidity no higher than 80% (non-condensing). If the electric scooter and the battery
are not used for longer than 3 months, it is advisable to store it with a charge of 40% – 70%. The
battery will then age more slowly than with a 100% charge. You should check the charge level about
every 2 months. Never store the battery for a long period when it is very low, as there is then a
risk of deep discharge with irreversible cell damage. If the battery is completely flat, it needs to be
recharged as quickly as possible.
9 | Cleaning and care
To keep your electric scooter in good condition and ensure that it will give you many years of reliable
service, you should clean it regularly. At the same time you can check for any damage.
When cleaning, you should always consider the environment. Use a biodegradable vehicle cleaner
and prevent any cleaner from draining into the ground.
IMPORTANT!
Risk of damage!
Do not use use running water, a steam jet cleaner or pressure washer etc, as
they drive moisture/water into the bearings and seals on the electric scooter and
can also damage the electrics and the motor.
Always make sure that your front and tail lights are clean. A mild soapy solution can be used for
cleaning, but no harsh cleaners, alcohol, petroleum ether or solvents. It is best to just wipe your
scooter down with a damp cloth. Before cleaning, switch off your electric scooter and make sure the
charging port is sealed. After washing, apply a polishing wax designed for matt paintwork to protect
it from the elements and seal the surface. Take care not to get any polish on the brake disc, tyres
or footboard. Never attempt to open the battery. No water, liquids, dirt or other particles must be
allowed to penetrate into the display or the battery compartment.
10 | Servicing
Any parts on your electric scooter that are not maintained, and become worn, weakened or damaged,
can cause a crash and lead to serious accidents. So it's important for your electric scooter to be
serviced by a specialist workshop following the service schedule approximately every 200 km or
after recharging 15 times, depending on your riding style.
