8. Range and performance
The maximum range and performance of the vehicle depends on a number of variables:
Terrain: riding on smooth roads provides greater range and performance than riding on rough roads and climbs.
Weight of user: the greater the weight, the lower the range and performance of the vehicle.
Temperature: riding the scooter in very cold or hot conditions affects range and performance.
Speed and riding style: riding smoothly and at constant speed extends the autonomy. Continuous accelerations, decelera-
tions and manoeuvres reduce a lot the autonomy. A lower speed extends the autonomy.
Maintenance: prompt recharging, proper maintenance and regular checking of tyre pressure increase range and ensures
consistent performance over time.
The battery charging level impacts on performance: the lower is the level, the lower the speed performance will be,
especially during hills.
9. Storage, maintenance and cleaning
CAUTION
If there are stains on the body of the scooter, wipe with a damp cloth. If the stains persist, apply neutral soap, brush them
with a small brush, then clean with a damp cloth. If there are scratches on the plastic components, use sandpaper or other
abrasive material to remove them. Do not clean the item with alcohol, gasoline, kerosene or other corrosive, volatile chem-
ical agents to not seriously damage it. Do not wash the item using high-pressure water jets. When cleaning the scooter,
make sure that it is switched off, that the charging cable is disconnected, and the rubber cap is closed, as a water leak may
cause an electric shock or other serious problems. Water seeping into the battery may cause damage to internal circuits and
risk of fire or explosion. Should you suspect that water may have entered the battery, stop using the battery immediately and
return it to your dealer's after-sales service for checking.
When the item is not in use, store it indoors in a cool, dry place. Do not store it outdoors or inside the car for an extended
period of time. Excessive sunlight, overheating, and excessive cold accelerate tyre ageing and jeopardize the life of both the
item and the battery. Do not expose it to rain or water or immerse it in water to wash it.
Regularly check the tightness of the bolted parts, in particular wheel axles, the folding and transportation system, the
steering system, the braking system, the state of the frame, the forks and the suspension. Nuts and all other self-locking
fasteners may lose their effectiveness. Periodically check and tighten these components.
Like all mechanical components, the item is subject to wear and tear. Different materials and components may react to wear
or stress fatigue in a variety of ways. If the service life of a component is exceeded, it may break suddenly, resulting in injury
to the rider. Any cracks, scratches or changes in colour in areas subject to high levels of stress indicate that the life of the
component has been reached and must be replaced.
Check the wear of the tyres: there must be no cuts, cracks, foreign bodies, abnormal swellings, lack of parts or other
damages.
Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the scooter yourself. Replacement of all scooter components should be carried out
by the technical service department. For further information, contact your dealer or visit www.jeepurbanemobility.com/en
