title: What should I do if I store my Maeving RM1 for extended periods of time?
description: If you plan to store your Maeving for an extended period, we recommend maintaining the batteries with a 12V trickle charger. This helps preserve battery health while the bike is not in regular use. You can obtain a suitable 12V trickle charging lead by clicking here. For step‑by‑step guidance on trickle charging your Maeving RM1, please refer to pages 67–68 of the owner’s handbook, which you can view digitally by clicking here.
