Caution!   

Do not allow the charger to remain connected after the battery is fully charged, as this may 

shorten battery life. 
 

Caution!   

Always charge your battery in temperatures between 50 °F – 80 °F (10 °C – 25 °C) and ensure 

the battery and charger are not damaged before initiating a charge cycle. If you notice anything unusual 
while charging, discontinue charging and do not use the bicycle. Contact CSC for help. 

Battery Range 

 
Your electric bicycle’s range is a function of many factors, including your weight, your pedal assist setting, 
how much pedal effort you provide, the speeds at which you ride, the terrain (uphill or downhill versus 
level ground), the road surface, prevailing winds, and temperature.   
 

Caution!   

Do not ride so far that you have insufficient charge to complete your trip. You should always 

leave with a fully charged battery, and observe the state of charge during your ride such that adequate 
charge remains to assist you to your destination. 

Battery Status   

Battery charge status is shown on the LCD display in the upper 
right corner of the LCD, as shown in the photograph to the 
right. 

 

Battery Disposal 

 
When your battery is no longer serviceable, please contact CSC for a replacement at 909-445-0900. Do 
no throw your battery away as normal trash. Dispose of the battery in an approved battery disposal 
facility.
