Electric Bike Maintenance, Care and Safety
Maintenance & Care
1. Ensure front and rear wheels are aligned with the front fork and frame center.
2. Park away from direct sunlight and rain.
3. Do not rinse the e-bike; clean with a damp cloth.
4. Frequently check the motor and brakes. Do not oil the braking system.
5. Regularly inspect all screws and keep them tight.
6. Touch up scratched or chipped paint on metal parts (use touch-up paint or clear nail polish) to prevent rust.
7. Regularly check chain tension and adjust using the chain regulator.
8. Inspect tires for scratches, cracks, or excessive wear. Ensure innertubes and valves are perpendicular to the wheel hub. Replace damaged/worn tires or inner tubes immediately (contact professional technicians).
9. Do not modify key structural parts (frame, front fork, steerer tube, electrical components). Replace damaged parts only with original factory parts; otherwise, the warranty is void, and you assume full responsibility.
Battery Charging Safety Warnings
1. ⚠️WARNING: DO NOT charge indoors, in hallways, basements, or other enclosed/semi-enclosed spaces. Charge ONLY in well-ventilated, designated outdoor areas.
2. ⚠️WARNING: AVOID OVERCHARGING. Disconnect power IMMEDIATELYafter the battery is fully charged (typically 6-8 hours). Do not leave the charger connected for extended periods.
3. ⚠️WARNING: USE ONLY THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER(OEM) CHARGER. Never use non-original, damaged, modified, or incompatible chargers.
4. ⚠️WARNING: INSPECT BEFORE CHARGING. Check the battery, charger, and power cord for damage, leakage, or overheating. Cease use immediately if any abnormalities are detected.
5. ⚠️WARNING: DO NOT charge in extreme temperatures: high heat (≥40℃ / ≥104°F), freezing conditions (≤-10℃ / ≤14°F), humid environments, or direct sunlight.
6. ⚠️WARNING: KEEP AWAY FROM FLAMMABLE MATERIALS. Maintain aminimum safe distance of 3 feet (1 meter) from combustibles (e.g., gasoline, paper, fabrics) during charging.
7. ⚠️WARNING: KEEP CHILDREN AND PETS AT A SAFE DISTANCE. Prevent access to the battery and charger while charging to avoid electric shock, burns, or other injuries.
8. ⚠️WARNING: LONG-TERM STORAGE CARE. Fully charge the battery to 80% before storage. Store in a dry, well-ventilated area and recharge every 1-2 months to maintain battery health.
9. ⚠️WARNING: DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR MODIFY THE BATTERY. For maintenance or replacement, contact the official brand after-sales service ONLY. Unauthorized modifications void warranties and pose safety hazards.
10. ⚠️WARNING: STOP CHARGING IMMEDIATELY if unusual odors, smoke, swelling, or overheating occur. Disconnect power and contact customer support promptly.
Riding Safety Tips for Extreme Weather
1. High-Temperature Environments (>35°C)
Shorten continuous riding time (rest for 5 minutes every 30 minutes) to prevent battery overheating.
Park in a shaded area to avoid direct sunlight (which accelerates tire aging).
2. Low-Temperature Environments (<5C)
Preheat the battery indoors for 30 minutes before riding (increases range by~20%).
Use lower assist levels (1-2 gears) to reduce sudden power drops from high motor load.
3. Strong Wind Conditions
Ride against the wind in low gears (1-2) to reduce wind resistance impact on range.
In crosswinds, slow to <10km/h, maintain stability, and avoid sudden turns.
Safety Warnings and Emergency Response
1. Mechanical and Operational Risks
Hot Components: Brake discs and motors may overheat after riding-avoid direct contact.
Pinch Hazard: Keep fingers away from moving joints when folding or adjusting parts.
Operational Prohibitions: Do not ride under the influence of alcohol, ride hands-free, or carry children (maximum load: 120kg). When downhill, avoid prolonged throttle use; prioritize braking.
2. Electrical Safety
Do not disassemble the battery or modify the circuit (risk of fire or electric shock).
Keep the battery at least 1 meter from flammable materials during charging; do not cover it (prevents heat buildup).
Unplug the charger from the power outlet when not in use for extended periods (avoids standby power hazards).
Fire Emergency: 1. Move away from flammables - 2. Extinguish with a dry powder fire extinguisher - 3. Call emergency services and specify a lithium battery fire.
Leakage Handling: Wear gloves and absorb leakage with sand; do not touch with bare skin.
3. Prevention of Riding Accidents
Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles; avoid sudden acceleration/braking. Slow down on slippery roads and do not use only therear brake.
For night riding, ensure lights function properly (headlight beam should illuminate 5-10 meters ahead, with a flashing frequency of 75-80 times perminute).
Prohiblted Actions
1. Modification and Usage Restrictions
Do not replace the motor, battery, or controller with non-original parts, Do not remove speed-limiting devices or tamper with parameters (voids warranty and may be illegal).
Strictly prohibit overloading (>150kg), high-speed riding on unpaved roads, and using the e-bike while charging.
Do not ride under the influence of alcohol/drugs or submerge the e-bike inwater (IPX4 water resistance only protects against splashing).
2. Prohibited Storage and Transportation Practices
1) Long-Term Storage (>1 month)
Environmental Requirements: Store at 10°C-25°C with humidity ≤60%, away from heat sources (heating vents, air conditioners).
Battery Maintenance: Charge to 50%-60% capacity and power on monthly (run for 5 minutes) to maintain battery activity.
Vehicle Protection: Apply anti-rust oil to the chain; inflate tires to 80% of standard pressure (prevents hub deformation).
Prohibited: Storage in humid, high-temperature (>40°C) environments or direct sunlight.
2) Long-Distance Transportation
Remove the battery and package it separately (per IATA standards); protect the frame with original foam.
Confirm destination regulations before international transport (e.g., EU requires CE certification; Canada requires battery capacity declarations).
