BATTERY CARE
The Babymaker
| Owners Manual
It’s important to follow these instructions and safety tips in order to preserve the
longevity of your battery’s life and ensure proper performance.
Fully charge the battery before each ride to make sure it’s ready to go the full
range. This will help reduce the chance of over-discharging the battery.
Based on IATA regulations you are not allowed to ship Lithium-ion
batteries this size by air. Please consult a land or sea freight agent for
transportation of the battery.
If the battery becomes physically damaged, non-functional, has been
dropped, or involved in a crash, or you notice it performing abnormally,
please discontinue use and contact FLX Bike immediately.
Charging your Battery
The charger is rated for 100-240V. Be sure to check the charger, charger
cables, and battery for damage before beginning each charge.
Charging time takes about 2 hours. On rare occasion, it may take longer to
allow the battery to fully charge, particularly when the bike is new, or has been stored
for a long period of time.
Only charge the battery with the supplied FLX charger as others may
cause damage to the battery or increase the possibility of fire or
explosion.
While the charger is designed to automatically stop charging once the battery is
full, do not leave it plugged in for periods of time greater than 12 hours.
Make sure your charger avoids contact with liquids, dirt, and debris.
