CHARGING

1. Plug the charger into the wall socket/
outlet, just like a laptop of 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 one of the charger indicator lights 
changes from green to red, 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 
month 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 partially charge the battery. 

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 is a sealed unit and requires no maintenance during the 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.

A little extra maintenance is required over 
and above a normal bicycle. 
One of the main things you may come across 
is that your spokes need to be tightened 
more often than a non-electric wheel. Our 
wheels use 12G and 13G spokes which 
handle the load and torque of these motors 
very well, but are more susceptible  to 
coming loose. 
A spoke-tightening tool such as the one 
including in the Dillenger hub motor 
conversion toolkit, is ideal. 
Check the tightness of each spoke ideally 
after the first 100km and then every 500km. 
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.
