Battery Care

  1. Batteries must only be charged and stored in a well ventilated area between 0 and 40 degrees centigrade
  2. NEVER leave your battery fully discharged for more than 12 hours, this will cause damage to the cells and will void your warranty
  3. Always charge your battery after every journey, this will maximise battery life
  4. Charge your battery to 80% every three months even if you have not used your bike in that time
  5. Never attempt to open the battery case, this action will void your warranty and may cause fire
  6. You must only use a Wisper Charger to charge your battery. Using a non Wisper branded charger or one not supplied directly from Amps Electric bikes or a bone fide Wisper distributor will void your warranty and may cause a fire.

General Maintenance

Like any bicycle, it is important that your Wisper Electric Bicycle is kept clean and well lubricated. Our ebikes fall into the City and Trekking category and are not designed as mountain bikes. If you do use your Wisper bike “off road”, it is important that all mud and sand is cleaned from all moving parts and the parts are lightly lubricated, before storage or further use. Make sure no lubricant is applied to braking surfaces.  A build up of mud and/or sand on moving parts may damage your bike and in extreme cases could negate your warranty.

Regular Servicing

All bicycles need regular servicing and electric bicycles in particular should be serviced and checked over by an electric bike specialist at least once a year.  If you are using the bicycle on a daily basis, for your safety and for the correct level of maintenance, we recommend six monthly servicing.  Your Wisper dealer will be happy to help you look after your bike.If you are unsure regarding daily maintenance and use of your bike, please refer to your Wisper dealer or your Wisper Handbook for further advice.
