PLEASE NOTE
Only charge the batteries with the specified charger. Using a different
charger may damage your battery.
Charging the battery:
1. Plug the charger into the wall socket/outlet,
just like a laptop or mobile phone charger.
2. Check that one of the charger indicator
lights glows green
3. Plug the charger, (battery end) into the
battery carefully, making sure it is all the way
in. Do not force it if there is an obstruction.
4. The charger indicator lights should glow red
whilst charging.
5. Once the charger indicator lights change to
green, the battery is fully charged.
There is no way to over-charge the battery.
When it is full, the charger will stop charging
the battery automatically.
Charging time can vary from 1 to 5 hours if
fully empty.
The battery should be charged once every
3
months as a minimum to maintain healthy
cells.
The best way to charge your battery is to plug
it in after every use, and leave it on charge
until the indicator light shows the battery is
fully charged. It is not good practice to only
half or partially charge the battery.
A little extra maintenance is required over
and above a normal bicycle.
Spoke tension should be maintained to avoid
loose/ broken spokes. This can be done
using a spoke tool as shown in the photo to
the right. If this is beyond your capabilities
it is recommended that a bike mechanic or
preferably someone here at Dillenger handles
this.
As well as caring for your spoke tension
it’s important to do a check on all of your
fasteners every few months. It never hurts to
go over your bike with tools, tightening and
checking everything that can be checked. This
will ensure you have a safe and well-serviced
bike.
Keep your bike clean! There’s nothing worse
than having to work on a dirty bike...
Also keep in mind the usual bike maintenance
like tyre pressures, brake pads, etc...
The motor in this kit is a sealed unit and requires no maintenance during its design life.
Lastly (just to reiterate) it’s important that you charge the battery at least once every
month to ensure the battery maintains a safe storage level.
