Charge after every use, keep terminals clean, and never leave lithium packs in a fully discharged state. Proper charging habits extend battery life by years.
Tires & Brakes
Inspect tread depth monthly, rotate tires seasonally, and replace brake pads when engagement feels soft or noisy. Correct pressure also improves range.
Annual Service
Book a factory-trained inspection once a year. Technicians will check the drivetrain, electrical connections, suspension, and software updates.
