Maintenance
Cleaning
Wipe the scooter with a damp cloth after each use. Do not use high-pressure water jets or corrosive cleaning agents. Ensure the charging port cover is securely closed before cleaning.
Tire Pressure
Regularly check the tire pressure of the pneumatic rubber wheels. Maintain the recommended PSI (refer to the tire sidewall or product specifications for exact values) for optimal performance, range, and safety.
Brake Inspection
Periodically inspect the front and rear disc brakes for wear and proper function. If braking performance degrades, consult a qualified technician for adjustment or replacement.
