Do not use a high-pressure washer to clean the product. Do not use solvents to clean the product. Disconnect the plug to the charging station or remove the disabling device before you clean or do mainte- nance of the charging station. LUBA is water resistant, but it is not waterproof. Both LUBA and the RTK station have a water-resistance rating of IPX6 under the IEC/EN60529 standard and have been certified by TUV. LUBA is designed to meet the installation, setting, and use requirements for heavy rain or storms when ...

After washing, ensure that LUBA is placed on the ground in its normal orientation and not upside down. Do not reverse the LUBA to clean the chassis, and if you do reverse it for cleaning purposes, make sure to revert it back to its proper orientation afterward. This precaution is necessary to prevent water from seeping into the motor and potentially affecting the normal operation of LUBA. By following these guidelines, you can effectively clean your LUBA without compromising its water resis- tance and functionality. 1.5 Battery safety Lithium-ion batteries can explode or cause fire if disassembled, short-circuited, exposed to water, fire, or high temperatures. Handle carefully, do not dismantle, open the battery or use any type of electrical/me- chanical abuse.
