3.3 Configuring for first use
3.3.1 Preparing the battery for use
The battery is supplied with your bicycle separate and partially
charged. To ensure that the battery uses its full capacity during
its life, when you use it for the first time make sure that you first
charge it fully with the charger.
To prepare the battery for use:
Check the battery before charging it for the first time or using it
with your bicycle.
1. Press the battery on/off button
60
to activate the battery.
If at least one LED is lit, but not all LEDs on the charge
indicator
61
are lit, you will need to charge the battery fully
before first use.
The battery can be charged in two ways:
•
disconnected from the bicycle;
•
on the bicycle.
"
DANGER
" Only cycle on a bicycle that has been
adjusted for your size and cycling wishes. The
bicycle has a handlebar stem lever to easily
change the position of the handlebar.
Always secure the handlebar stem lever tight and
check that the attached components cannot
move.
Never adjust the handlebar whilst cycling.
"
DANGER
" Carefully read the safety instructions
with regard to the use of the battery and ensure
that you understand them.
For this, see sub-section ’Important safety
information when using the battery’ section 3.4.1
(page 29).
"
WARNING
" Take your feet off the pedals before
activating the battery.
"
REMARK
" If there are no LEDs lit up on the charge
indicator, the battery is likely to be flat and so
needs to be charged.
If the battery is connected to the charger and no
LED lights flash, the battery is possibly damaged.
Do not charge a damaged battery, and do not use
it. Contact a Gazelle service specialist.
"
REMARK
" If the battery is empty (no LED lights on
the charge indicator), the assistance is first
switched off and then finally the bicycle lights.
