The indicator is more reliable while the vehicle is running. It is normal if a
light goes out on starting, this means that the consumption is important.
•
All lights on: Battery charged. Ready to start
•
Green light out Battery to 60-70 %. One can ride with prevision.
•
Two Green lights out Battery to 40-50 %. Few charge.
•
Three Green lights out Battery to 10-20 %. The battery should be charged.
•
Only the red light Battery discharged The battery must be charged once
The environmental temperature can affect the good work of the battery. In general, the
battery is to work properly in high temperatures. When the temperature drops below 0º
C, however, its performance can be reduced to a third. For this reason, it is probable
that the charge can last less time in winter. At 20º C, the battery shall work normally.
When the temperature exceeds 35º-40ºC ( or if the battery has been exposed to the sun
for a long time ), the electrical components may not work normally.
Actions which may effect or reduce the battery performance.
•
Constantly starting and stopping the DPIE 3 as it can be driving in cities
•
Constantly braking and turning the bike on and off
•
Riding upwind or uphill and carrying extra weight
•
Low pressure tire and braked wheels
These actions can influence the battery’s performance, reducing its life and the
distance which can travel to be shorter. We recommend to take note of the above
indicated points to extend as much as possible the travelling distance that the DPIE 3
can travel .
11.1 BATTERY RECHARGING
Ensure the battery to be charged completely before using the vehicle for the first time.
The battery can be to the 50% charged when one may receive the vehicle.
DPIE 3 is provided with an integrated recharging system to the vehicle with an external
plug in the front part (Figure 13) directly to the system which is retractable. On the rear
part of the Central covering (Figure 14) there is a switch to connect the charger and two
informative light led to know the level of the charge. This easy to charge the battery to
any place without needing any external charger. In this way, the charger system is
always ready without problems.
