16. Daily maintenance and care
Cleaning and storage
• If there are stains on the body of the scooter, wipe them off with a damp cloth. If stains persist, apply
some toothpaste, brush with a toothbrush, then wipe with a damp cloth. If there are scratches on the
plastic components, use sandpaper or other abrasive material to remove them. Note: do not clean the
scooter with alcohol, petrol, kerosene or other corrosive and volatile chemical solvents, to avoid serious
damage. Do not wash the scooter with high-pressure water jets. When cleaning the scooter, make sure
that it is turned off, that the charging cable is disconnected, and the rubber cap is closed, as a water leak
may cause an electric shock or other serious problems. When the scooter is not in use, store it indoors in
a cool, dry place. Do not store it outdoors for extended periods of time. Excessive sunlight, overheating,
and excessive cold accelerate tyre ageing and jeopardize the life of both the scooter and the battery.
• Check the brakes and make sure they are adjusted correctly.
• Check the front tyre pressure keeping it at 50 PSI
1. Only use original batteries, as other models or brands may pose a safety risk.
2. Do not dismantle, crush, or puncture the product. Do not touch the battery contacts. Do not dismantle
or puncture the outer casing. Avoid bringing the scooter into contact with water or fire and do not expose
it to temperatures exceeding 50 °C (including heat sources such as stoves, heaters, etc.). Avoid contact
between metal objects and battery terminals to prevent short circuits, physical harm or death.
3. Water seeping into the battery may cause damage to internal circuits and risk of fire or explosion.
Should you suspect that water may have entered the battery, stop using the battery immediately and
return it to your dealer's after-sales service for checking.
4. Use only the original charger to avoid potential damage or fire.
5. Improper disposal of used batteries seriously pollutes the environment. Follow local regulations
regarding battery disposal. Follow battery disposal regulations to protect the environment.
6. After each use, fully recharge the battery to extend its useful life. Do not store the battery in an
environment where the temperature is above 50°C or below -20°C (for example, do not leave the scooter
or battery in a car in direct sunlight for an extended period of time). Do not throw the battery into a fire
as this could damage it, cause overheating or even a fire.
