microfibre cloth to prevent corrosion.

The battery bracket is designed to allow water to drain off more quickly and the battery
contacts to dry easily. For this to happen, the bracket area and the plug must be kept
clean. The battery contacts are provided with a coating that protects the surface against
corrosion and wear.

When greasing the chain, make sure that the brake discs are not soiled, and that the
sprocket is not engaged. Spray where the chain slides smoothly and wipe off excess
lubricant with a cloth.
Maintenance
Keep the tyre pressure at least 2.7 bar. If you notice any irregularities, take the e-bike to a
mechanic, and maintain tyre pressure to avoid punctures.
Chain lubrication
-
Lubricate the chain regularly to avoid annoying chain noises and other problems when
changing gears. It is recommended to lubricate a bicycle chain every 100-200 km or when
the chain looks dry or dirty. Use a specific lubricant for bicycle chains, preferably one
with a wax or Teflon base. Apply the lubricant to the inside of the chain while turning the
pedals backwards. Remember to clean the chain before applying the lubricant for best
results.

The proper bicycle chain tension is the tension at which you can move the chain slightly
vertically between approximately 1 cm and 3 cm without it being too slack or too tight.
To adjust the gears on a bicycle, follow these steps:
1.
Make sure that the bicycle is horizontal and stable.
2. Shift to the lowest gear on both the front and rear derailleur.
3. Turn the rear derailleur tension adjuster so that the chain moves smoothly over the
sprockets without jumping.
4. Adjust the limits of the rear derailleur so that the chain does not run outside or inside the
sprockets.
5. Shift to the highest gear and repeat steps 3 and 4 for the front derailleur.
To adjust the brakes on a bicycle, follow these steps:
First, locate each of the brakes that are attached to the handlebars of the bicycle, where the
front brake is located on the left handlebar lever and the rear brake is located on the right
handlebar lever.
1.
Ensure that the brake pads are correctly aligned with the braking surface of the rim.
2. Adjust the brake cable tension using the adjusting screw on the brake or on the brake
lever.
3. Check that the brakes apply correctly and that the pads make even contact with the rim
when the levers are actuated.
