5.1 Charging the battery
Before using the bicycle for the first time, it is necessary to charge the battery for at
least 4-6 hours, until charging is complete, using the battery charger supplied.
The average charging time is around 4-6 hours.
The batteries are of the lithium type 36V.
To extend the life of the battery as much as possible, a full charge every thirty days
is recommended even if the bicycle is not used.
We recommend charging the battery with its special battery charger after
each use of the pedal-assisted bicycle.
Charging with battery inserted:
Insert the charger plug into the appropriate socket on the battery;
Connect the battery charger to the mains socket (230V / 50Hz).
Charging with battery removed:
Insert the key in the lock located on the battery cover.
Turn the key anticlockwise until it is in the UNLOCKED position (symbol OPEN),
remove the battery from the frame and place it on a flat surface, follow the
precautions indicated with regard to charging procedures, insert the battery charger
plug into the socket on the battery and then connect the charger to the mains
socket (230V / 50Hz).
The red light in the battery charger is on during charging, the red light turns
green when charging is complete.
