quickly Charging fault **
* All 5 LEDs flash quickly: The battery is a) empty and is
being switched off, or is b) overloaded.
a) If the battery is overloaded, it will switch back on after
a short idle period and can then be used normally.
b) If the battery is empty, it will work once again briefly
following a short period of rejuvenation and will then
switch back off. It must now be charged.
** The 1st LED flashes quickly: A charging fault is present.
If this occurs, put the battery in the docking station for a
short period of time or insert the plug of the charger into
the battery. The charger performs a readjustment. If the
LED still flashes, take the battery to your specialist cycle
shop.
5.2.2 Checking the capacity
a) Down tube battery: If you hold down the battery key for
roughly five seconds, the LEDs show the current battery
capacity. If the LED in the largest panel lights up, then the
battery has a capacity of over 60%. If the capacity is be-
low 60%, this is indicated via the smallest LED. Only one
of the two LEDs can light up at any one time.
b) Seat tube battery: If you press the push button for five
seconds, the LEDs show the current capacity of the battery.

The range of the battery is less in winter due to the
lower temperatures. Only move the battery (from the
warm room where you store it) and fit it on your Pe-
delec just before you set off. This will help to prevent
the effect of the low temperature on the range of the
battery.

5.3 Battery management
The battery management monitors the temperature of
your battery and warns you of incorrect use.
›
If an external short-circuit has been caused at
the contacts or the charging socket, please con-
sult your specialist cycle shop.
›
Please always supervise the battery charging
process and disconnect the charger afterwards.
5.3.1 Sleep mode
The battery management switches the battery to sleep
mode to prevent a so-called total discharge. At the latest,
the battery management activates the sleep mode after
ten days without use. The system exits sleep mode when
you connect the battery to the charger or press the battery
key | push button on the battery.
5.4 Warranty and service life
Batteries are wear parts. Wear parts come with a two-year
warranty.
If a fault occurs during this period, your specialist cycle
shop will replace the battery. Normal ageing and battery
wear do not constitute a fault.
The service life of the battery depends on different factors.
The most important wear-relevant factors are:
• the number of charging processes
After 1,100 charging cycles, your battery will still
have 60% of its initial capacity, providing it has
been well looked after. This means 6.6 Ah in an
