Maintenance
and Storage
Can I ride in any weather conditions?
The Ebikemotion components are designed to be used in poor weather conditions,
such as rain and snow, and are protected against splashing, but not against
immersion or pressurized water. The bike should be hand-washed without using
a hose or pressure washer, and you should avoid even partially submerging the bike.
What about battery maintenance?
The battery should be charged at least every three months to preserve
the battery life, even if the bike isn't being ridden or the battery is not depleted.
It is recommended to let the battery fully deplete from time to time and then
recharge completely.
Batteries do degrade over time, and temperature is a key factor in battery longevity.
Ideally, charge your battery within a temperature range of 10ºC to 40ºC.
Store the bike within a comparable temperature range, away from direct sunlight.
I think I have a warranty issue. Who do I contact?
Please contact your local retailer, who will direct you on next steps to get you back
on the road as quickly as possible.
Road Safety
When cycling, always remember to obey all road laws
and be aware of your surroundings.
Some new eBike riders will find they are riding at higher speeds than normal,
which can warrant extra precautions. Always be aware of your speed and your
distance from other cyclists and road users. If riding in a group, use extra care
when advancing through levels of assistance to avoid sudden speed gain.
Remember that you may need to brake earlier or stronger than you are used
to if you are moving at a higher speed.
In most jurisdictions, riding with a helmet is mandatory. We strongly advise
the use of a helmet at all times when cycling, even if not mandatory.
The same applies to front and rear lights, which are again often mandatory,
and strongly advised even if not mandatory.
