Arrow dealer) who can fix the puncture for you.

8.2.3 Maintenance check

When you have your e-bike maintained/serviced by your Urban
Arrow dealer all necessary maintenance will be performed by
your dealer. But in between the maintenance you can perform the
following checks yourself regularly to detect potential issues:
● Check tyres for wear and damage: A worn tyre can be
recognized by checking the tread pattern. If the pattern has
disappeared in the middle of the tread (difference between
lowered and raised material cannot be distinguished) the tyre
is worn and should be replaced (see image 35). If you notice
long or deep tears the tyre should be replaced even if the
tread hasn't worn out yet. Contact your Urban Arrow dealer
for the correct spare part.

● Check tyre pressure: Riding a too low tyre pressure damages
the tyre. In the sidewalls tears will appear that cannot be
repaired. Sometimes a few hundred km's at too low pressure
is enough to ruin the tyres. The correct tyre pressure is as
follows:
a. Front wheel: 2.4-3.5 bar
b. Rear wheel: 3-4 bar
Tip Ask your Urban Arrow dealer for a correct pump that fits
the Schrader valves of your bike.
● Wheel trueness : If a wheel is out of true it will wobble while
spinning. You can check this by putting the bike on its stand
and giving the wheels a spin (see image 36). If the wheel is
spinning look at the rim and tyre separately. An incorrectly
fitted tyre can also cause a wobble. A new wheel needs to
settle and will require its trueness being checked more often.
Contact your Urban Arrow dealer in case your wheel wobbles
to have your wheel fixed.
