Initial inspection after 2 months<br />

• Approximately two months after your first<br />

use, you should check to make sure everything<br />

is tight and secure.<br />

• Inspect the bike and contact your dealer if<br />

you find a problem.<br />

From the second inspection on<br />

• To ensure your <strong>Boost</strong> continues to function<br />

correctly, you should have it inspected and<br />

serviced every six months The responsibility<br />

and expense for proper routine maintenance<br />

of this bicycle is your own responsibility.<br />

Cleaning<br />

It is important to keep all of the wiring, plugs<br />

and contact points clean and free form dirt,<br />

water, oil. Some things to remember:<br />

• After every ride it is good to give the bike a<br />

wipe over. This makes removing any dirt,<br />

grit much easier.<br />

• After riding in the rain or on wet roads,<br />

always clean and dry all components<br />

immediately.<br />

• Never spray water directly onto any part of<br />

the bicycle as this may cause damage on<br />

electric shock.<br />

• Avoid using any chemicals or strong cleaning<br />

agents on the electrical components.<br />

• Try using a dry, or slightly damp cloth to<br />

clean dirt and grit away..<br />

• Always be careful when cleaning around<br />

wires and connectors. Damage can occur if<br />

you pull or push wiring too vigorously.<br />

Storage<br />

It is important to store you bike correctly.<br />

• It is stored in a level and stable location.<br />

• A location with good ventilation and no<br />

moisture.<br />

sunlight.<br />

storage.<br />

Long-term Storage<br />

When your bike is to be stored for one month<br />

or longer. Please make sure to:<br />

• Make sure that only one red indicating lamp<br />

lit remains. If there are more lamps lit use<br />

the battery until only one light remains.<br />

• Store the battery at a suitable temperature<br />

(-20ºC to 20ºC recommended).<br />

• Charge once a year. After charging, store<br />

the battery again after using it until one red<br />

indicating lamp for the remaining battery<br />

charge is lit.<br />

Operation After long-term Storage<br />

After 20 days of inactivity, the battery will place<br />

itself in Hibernation Mode. This is to help save<br />

loss of power and extend the life of the battery.<br />

To resume normal battery function, you will<br />

need to remove the battery from the bike and<br />

perform a standard charge cycle. Once complete,<br />

the battery will be ready to use again.<br />
