BATTERIES
2.7 Charging the battery
You can charge your battery both while
mounted on the Pedelec and removed.
Lithium-ion batteries are not subject to a memo-
ry effect. You can recharge your battery at any
time, even after short trips.
Charge your battery at temperatures between
0 °C and 45 °C (ideally at room temperature or
20 °C). Give the battery sufficient time before
charging to reach this temperature.
Read the instructions on the charger before
charging.
1. First insert the plug of the charging cable
into the charging socket on the battery, then
the plug the charger into a socket.
2. As soon as the charger is connected to the
power supply, a red LED will light up.

Charging time depends on various factors. It can
vary greatly according to the temperature, age,
usage and capacity of the battery. You can find
indications of possible charging times, if neces-
sary, in the technical data of the battery.
When the battery is fully charged, the charging
process is automatically terminated. Unplug the
plug from the battery and the power outlet.
Only use the charger designed for the battery.
Make sure you use the correct mains voltage.
The required mains voltage is indicated on the
charger. It must comply with the voltage of the
current source. Chargers marked 230V can also
be operated at 220 V.
•
Do not touch the power plug with wet
hands. There is a risk of electric shock.
•
Before use, check that the charger, cable
and plug are not damaged. If damage oc-
curs, do not use the charger. There is a risk
of electric shock.
•
Charge the battery in well-ventilated rooms
only.
•
Do not cover the charger and/or battery dur-
ing charging. There is a risk of over-heating,
fire, or explosion.
•
Only charge on a dry, non-flammable
surface.
The battery has to be recharged completely at
least every 3 months, in order to avoid
damaging or destroying the cells.
If the charging time exceeds the usual charging
times (see table), the battery may be damaged.
In this case, immediately stop charging. Have a
dealer check the battery and charger to avoid
damage.
