Products produce smell: stop to use equipment immediately, remove the battery and take
appropriate actions according to working instructions and stay away from the scene. Avoid
contact with any leaking liquids or gases out of the battery (in case of contact clean
immediately).
Necessary safety equipment
Self-contained breathing apparatus and personal protective equipment.
Sevofluoropropane fire extinguishing system.

Matters requiring attention
The charging function of batteries may be blocked by Battery Management System if
temperature of cells inside the battery case is lower than +5
℃
. Make sure the own temperature
of battery is above this value and the temperature of the battery is even.
Batteries are forbidden to charge at low temperatures, but they can be used in occasional low
temperature environment (please refer to normal working conditions allowed for the truck), but
their efficient capacity will be lower, which is a normal phenomenon.
Note:
Although the battery can be discharged at very low temperature, it is easy to generate
condensate during the charging process, which will damage the internal electronic devices of
the battery and create unpredictable hidden dangers. Batteries cannot be charged until they
are slowly warmed up to minimum allowed temperature for activation of charging function (may
take up to 4 hours in normal temperature conditions). Forced warming up (e.g., using of
heaters, vents etc.) is forbidden.
The dependence of actual capacity from environmental temperature is shown for reference
only and can not be used as a commitment/allowance for low temperature operation, please
refer to the Chapter 1 for correct application conditions.
The battery protection level is IP40, so please do not wash the battery directly with water.
When the lithium battery pack is not in use for a long time store it with 30-50% level of charge to
extend its life-time.
When the vehicle is prohibited to run, that is, when the handle power indicator is blinking red,
please charge in time; otherwise, there may be the risk of battery power loss;It is recommended
that charging be carried out within 7 days when driving is prohibited.

Park the truck securely and disconnect the battery connector plug to
power off the truck. Hold the battery grip and take out the battery vertically.
The installation is in the reverse order.
