Electric scooters have become one of the smartest and most economical ways to commute in
India. With rising fuel prices, growing traffic, and rapid urbanisation, choosing an electric vehicle
is no longer just a trend—it’s a practical decision. At Warivo, we believe in empowering riders
with vehicles that deliver unmatched efficiency, long-term durability, and worry-free mobility.
However, even the best-performing EV requires timely care.
This comprehensive maintenance guide will help you keep your Warivo electric scooter running
like new for years to come.
Why Maintaining Your Warivo Electric Scooter Is
Essential
Electric scooters are known for low maintenance, but “low” doesn’t mean “no” maintenance.
Regular checkups ensure:
● Longer battery lifespan and optimal performance
● Higher riding range per charge
● Better safety on all types of roads
● Reduced service expenses over time
● Smooth and enjoyable rides every single day
A well-maintained electric scooter also prevents unexpected breakdowns and helps you ride
with confidence—no matter how long or frequently you commute.
1. Battery Care – The Heart of Your Warivo
EV
The battery is the powerhouse of your scooter. Taking proper care of it directly affects how far
and how smoothly you ride.
Charge the Right Way
Always use the original Warivo charger. Third-party chargers risk overheating and long-term
damage. Charge your scooter in a cool, dry, ventilated area, especially during hot summers.
Avoid placing the scooter in direct sunlight while charging.
Avoid Deep Discharge
Try not to let your battery drain to 0%. Lithium batteries last longer if kept between 20%–80% for
daily use.
If You Notice Sudden Range Drops
This could signal:
● A battery cell issue
● A damaged charger
● Wiring irregularities
● Temperature-related stress
Get your vehicle checked by an authorised Warivo service technician immediately.
Storage Tip
If you won’t be riding for weeks, leave the battery at around 50–60% charge and store it in a dry
indoor environment.
2. Tyres & Air Pressure – Your First Line of
Safety
Your tyres connect you to the road—so their condition directly affects comfort and safety.
Optimal Tyre Pressure
Following the recommended pressure enhances:
● Range
● Grip
● Tyre lifespan
● Stability on uneven roads
Under-inflated tyres increase rolling resistance, reducing range and causing premature wear.
Over-inflated tyres make the ride bouncy and reduce braking effectiveness.
Regular Inspection
Check for:
● Cuts
● Bulges
● Sharp objects stuck in treads
● Uneven wear (which may signal suspension or alignment issues)
Replace tyres as soon as you notice deep wear patterns or cracks—especially before long trips.
3. Braking System – Ensuring Total
Control
Your brakes are your strongest safety feature.
Check Brakes Weekly
Squeeze the brake lever while stationary. If the wheel doesn’t lock properly or the lever feels too
loose or spongy, the brakes need adjustment.
Brake Pad Wear Indicators
If you hear squeaking or feel increased stopping distance, your brake pads may be worn out.
Replace them immediately to avoid rotor damage.
Brake Fluid (For Scooter Models With Hydraulic Brakes)
Check fluid levels as per the Warivo service recommendation. Contaminated or old fluid can
compromise braking power.
4. Suspension Health – Smooth Rides,
Always
A good suspension system absorbs shocks and keeps your scooter stable.
When to Inspect
Look for these signs:
● Excessive wobbling
● Noisy or stiff handling
● Bottoming out on speed breakers
● Uneven tyre wear
If any of these occur, your suspension may need adjustment or replacement.
5. Electrical System & Wiring
Electric scooters depend heavily on proper wiring for efficient functioning.
What to Inspect
● Loose connections
● Torn cables
● Corrosion around terminals
● Moisture inside light fittings or switch housings
Avoid washing the scooter with high-pressure water jets. Moisture trapped inside connectors
can lead to short circuits or malfunctioning.
6. Cleaning & Care – Keeping Your Warivo
EV Shining
A clean scooter not only looks good but also performs better.
How to Clean Properly:
● Use a soft microfiber cloth
● Avoid strong acidic or alcohol-based cleaners
● Keep water away from the battery and open electrical areas
● Lubricate moving parts lightly (stand, hinges, brake levers)
Regular cleaning prevents dust from entering brake assemblies and reduces corrosion on metal
components.
7. Charging Port & Connectors
The charging port must always remain clean and dry.
Tips:
● Keep the protective cap closed when not charging
● Clean the port gently using a dry brush if dust collects
● Never plug the charger in with wet hands
● If you notice sparking, get the port inspected immediately
8. Lights, Indicators & Horn
These are vital for visibility and safety, especially in night riding or heavy traffic.
Check for:
● Dim headlights
● Non-functional indicators
● Flickering brake lights
● Weak horn sound
Faulty lights can drain your battery faster or put you at risk during night commutes.
9. Fasteners, Nuts & Bolts
Road vibrations can loosen nuts and bolts over time.
Inspect:
● Handlebar bolts
● Suspension mounting
● Brake caliper nuts
● Footrest screws
A monthly check is recommended to avoid rattling noises and ensure structural integrity.
