5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your scooter.
- Cleaning: Wipe down the scooter with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excessive water, especially near electronic components.
- Battery Care: Charge the battery regularly, even if not in frequent use, to maintain its health. Avoid completely draining the battery. Store the scooter in a cool, dry place.
- Fasteners: Periodically check all bolts and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Vibrations from riding can loosen components over time.

- Brakes: Regularly test the functionality of both the electronic hand brake and the rear foot brake.

- Scooter not turning on: Ensure the battery is charged. Press and hold the power button for the required duration (2 seconds).
- Loss of power/speed: Check the battery level on the display. If low, recharge the scooter. Ensure you are in an appropriate gear for the terrain.
- Unusual noises: Inspect the wheels, brakes, and folding mechanisms for any loose parts or obstructions. Tighten any loose bolts.
- Brakes not responding: Check the brake levers and cables for any damage or obstruction. Ensure the electronic brake is engaging.
