2.8 Switching the electrical
system on and off
Make sure that the pedals of your Pedelec are
not weighed down when the system is turned

may lead to power restrictions and error
messages. When this happens, switch off the
system and turn it on again.

In order to activate and use your Pedelec, the
following prerequisites must be fulfilled:
•
A sufficiently charged battery must be used.
•
The battery must be inserted correctly into
the battery holder.
•
The motor, control unit, control unit/battery,
etc. must all be connected correctly.
You can switch the electrical system of your Pe
-
delec on and off according to the description on
the control unit, see section "Control element".

2.9 Storing the battery
If you do not use your Pedelec for an extended
period of time, remove the battery, charge it
(60-80%) and store it separately in a frost-free,
dry room.
•
Check the charge level every 3 months and
recharge if necessary.
•
Store your battery at a temperature between
-10 °C and 35 °C.
•
Avoid storing in direct sunlight.
•
To prevent deep discharge, the battery will
go into sleep mode after a certain time.
•
Do not expose the battery to temperatures
below the permissible storage temperature
of -10 °C to 35 °C. Note that temperatures
of around 45 °C are common near heaters,
in direct sunlight or in over-heated vehicle
interiors.
If you notice the battery becoming hot during
use, charging or storage, developing a strong
odor, changing appearance, or any other
abnormality, do not continue to use the battery.
Immediately stop using the battery and have a
dealer check it before you use it again.
