5. CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
-
Make sure the device is not plugged to the power supply or switched on before cleaning
or maintenance.
-
Use a soft cloth to clean the exterior housing of the electric scooter.
-
Never use alcohol, petrol, paraffin, corrosive, or abrasive products to clean the electric
scooter.
-
Never immerse the electric scooter in water or any other liquid to clean it, as this could
damage the electronic parts permanently.
-
Never use pressurised water to clean the electric scooter.
-
Do not try to repair the electric scooter on your own. Should it not work correctly or be
damaged, please contact the official Cecotec Technical Support Service.
-
Self-tapping nuts and other fasteners may loosen their hold and need to be retightened.
-
If the scooter is expected to be inactive for more than 30 days, fully charge the battery
and place it in a cool, dry place. Remember to recharge it every 60 days to protect the
battery from possible damage beyond the scope of the warranty.
-
Disassembly of the wheels is complicated and improper assembly can cause instability
and malfunction.
Brake disc
You must check the brake discs are in perfect condition, matching the brake calliper: fix this
easily with the Allen key provided. Brake pads are consumable parts and must be replaced
when their shelf life expires.
Storage
-
When not in use, store the scooter in a dry and ventilated place. Do not leave it outdoors
for a long time. Excessive sunlight, overheating, and overcooling accelerate tyre ageing

Charge it only if the room temperature is between 0 °C and 35 °C and store it at a
temperature between -10 °C and 35 °C.
