Clean the bike with a damp cloth. Do not spray water directly at electrical components, bearings, or suspension joints.
If a code appears, check the connection of that specific component (e.g., motor cable, throttle connector).

System voltage is too high. Ensure you are using the correct manufacturer-approved charger and battery pack.
Before your first ride, ensure the bike is structurally sound. Most units arrive 85% assembled.
Note: Using throttle continuously reduces range by ~40% vs low PAS.
Charging is complete. Unplug the charger promptly once the light turns green. Battery Safety and Storage
The lithium-ion battery is typically removable, allowing you to charge it on or off the bike. Capacities range from 36V to 48V.
