How do you store your VMAX correctly?
If you are unable or unwilling to use your scooter for a longer period of time, then pay attention to the following tips and tricks so that you can get back into full use afterwards. In any case, also pay attention to the information in your user manual.
Battery care
A lithium-ion battery suffers from "extreme conditions" - this is where the battery ages the fastest. This means that the battery should be neither completely empty nor completely full over a longer period of time. Therefore, charge your scooter to around 60% before storing it and connect it to the charger every four weeks to maintain this charge level. A deep discharge can permanently damage the battery.The right place
It is best not to store your VMAX in a place that is too warm or too cold. In particular, temperatures below freezing can cause damage to the battery and motor.
Your storage location should also be dry and not very dusty. The original box is also a good place to store the scooter to protect it from dust and other things.Air pressure
The air pressure in the tire depends on the ambient temperature. If your scooter was inflated at very low temperatures, the pressure in the tire will increase as soon as the tire warms up. Therefore, avoid very high (and very low) pressures when storing your scooter.
Make sure that you do not drive the scooter with flat tires under any circumstances. This can cause damage to the tire and casing as well as to the scooter's bearings.
