We recommend all Platinum e-BIKES be looked at by an
authorized Platinum e-BIKES dealer or at the minimum be seen
by a local bicycle shop. Regular service checks are encouraged
to help maintain the life of your bicycle and its electrical
components. If you are mechanically inclined and would like to
do some maintenance yourself, the following will help you on
your quest to maintain your Platinum e-BIKES bicycle and keep
it moving beautifully.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Check the tire pressure, the tire tread, and condition
Check the left and right brakes. Make fine adjustments.
Check that the PAS sensor and magnet are free of debris
Remove dirt with a brush and warm water. Never
submerge or use a pressure washer.
LUBRICATION
Lubricate the chain to help prevent corrosion and to provide for
a smooth transition when changing gears.
CHECKING AND ADJUSTING THE FOLDING POINTS
Having secure folding points is crucial to your safety. Check the
frame folding mechanism and make adjustments using a 3mm
Allen key. Check the folding handlebar mechanism by gently
wiggling the handlebar back forth. If it is loose or if the folding
bar cannot close, adjust the inner screw with a 6mm Allen key or
the folding bar with a Phillip screwdriver.

BATTERY MAINTENANCE
Though the lithium-polymer battery that comes with the 3OND is built
to resist overheating, exposing the battery to extreme heat can not only
work against this resistance, it can also shorten the lifespan of the
battery. To help prolong the life of your battery, it is best to store the
battery at normal room temperature with moderate humidity levels.
After 30 charges, allow the battery to completely discharge. Continuous
partial discharges creates a condition called digital memory which
decreases the accuracy of the device's power gauge. Let the battery
discharge to the cut-off point and then recharge to re-calibrate gauge.
CHECK CABLE CONNECTIONS
First, make sure that the battery is not electrically engaged. Then,
check the fit of the cable connectors. If they are loose, push the female
and male ends together to close the gap. Press firmly, but do not twist.
If the internal prongs feel misaligned, completely disconnect the two
ends. Check for any indentations in the plastic surrounding the female
metallic insertion points. Though rare, small indentations could
indicate that the male metallic ends are being pushed into the plastic
instead of the female metallic insertion points. Align the ends properly
and reinsert. Electrically engage the battery, then test the electrical
functionality of the bicycle. Periodically re-check the connections.
