The maintenance your electric scooter needs

With this type of vehicle you are also subject to traffic regulations and possible sanctions

Passenger cars, as defined in the General Vehicle Regulations, are vehicles with one or more wheels, equipped with a single seat and powered exclusively by electric motors that can give the vehicle a maximum speed determined by design between 6 and 25 km/h. They can only be equipped with a seat or saddle if they are equipped with a self-balancing system. This definition excludes vehicles for people with reduced mobility.

And it is that this type of vehicle also needs periodic maintenance with the corresponding revisions according to the General Directorate of Traffic (DGT). Therefore, the use of an electric scooter is not recommended if these parts have broken, if the battery life is significantly reduced, if there are air leaks in the tires or signs of wear, or if there are noises when turning or other abnormal symptoms . In
these suitcases go to a workshop.

You should also keep an eye on the condition and pressure of the wheels if they have an inner tube. Use a damp cloth to clean it and avoid electrical areas. Never charge overnight, in case it overheats and catches fire. Charging must be performed before the battery is completely discharged and never when the scooter is wet or if there is moisture

Likewise, when you ride a scooter, you are also subject to:
traffic rules and possible penalties. And if you don’t want to be fined, keep in mind that you can’t wear headphones and use your mobile or other device while driving. Just like you can’t exceed the speed limits or blood alcohol limits (including 0.0 for minors). The drivers are subject to the same maximum alcohol percentages allowed by the road safety law, as well as the prohibition to drive with the presence of drugs in the body.
