Maintenance
Cleaning and Storage
Use a soft, wet cloth to wipe the mainframe clean. Hard to remove dirt can be scrubbed with a toothbrush and
toothpaste, then cleaned with a soft, wet cloth. Scratches on plastic parts can be polished with extra-fine grit
sandpaper.
NOTE
Do not wash Loomo with alcohol, gasoline, acetone, or other corrosive/volatile solvents. These substances may
damage the appearance and internal structure of Loomo. Do not wash Loomo with a power washer or
high-pressure hose.
WARNING
Make sure Loomo is powered OFF, the charging cable is unplugged, and the rubber cap on the charge port is
tightly sealed before cleaning; otherwise you may expose yourself to electric shock or damage electronic
components.
Store Loomo in a cool, dry place. Do not store it outdoors for extended periods of time. Exposure to sunlight and
temperature extremes (both hot and cold) will accelerate the aging process of the plastic components and may
reduce battery life.
Tire Pressure
Inflate tires to 35~50 psi. Inflate both tires equally.
Battery Pack Maintenance
Do not store or charge the battery at temperatures outside the stated limits (see Specifications). Do not discard or
destroy the battery. For more battery information, refer to the sticker on the battery itself. Refer to your local laws
and regulations regarding battery recycling and/or disposal. A well-maintained battery can perform well even after
many miles of riding. Charge the battery after each ride and avoid draining the battery completely. When used at
room temperature (70°F [22°C]) the battery range and performance is at its best; whereas using it at temperatures
below 32°F (0°C) can decrease range and performance.
