Drive battery
The drive battery is in the down tube of the
eBike. It has an integrated electronic
protection system that is designed for use
with the charger supplied with the eMTB.
The drive battery and the charger must be
kept out of the reach of children.
The drive battery in the down tube is only
protected against splashes of water. You
must never clean your eBike with a pressure
washer, a hose or compressed air.
You must not immerse your eBike in water.
This can cause a short circuit, malfunction,
fire or explosion. If you think that there may
be water in the drive battery, you must not
use the eBike.
Do not put paper clips, screws, coins, keys or
other small objects in the battery charging
socket. They can cause a short circuit in the
drive battery. The battery could get hot,
catch fire and explode.
If the drive battery is not used correctly,
fluid could leak out of it.
If you come into contact with the fluid, rinse
it off with water. If you get the fluid in your
eye, visit a doctor.
The fluid can cause
irritation and burns.
If the battery emits
vapour, ventilate the area well. Visit a doctor
if the vapour causes problems. The vapour
can irritate your airways.
If a crash or an accident causes external
damage to the down tube
,
you must not use
the eBike. If the eBike has survived an impact
without external damage, the drive battery
may still be damaged internally. In this case
you must not use the eBike for at least 24
hours and you must monitor it.
The electrical connections on the drive
battery must only be cleaned with a dry cloth
or a soft brush.
You must follow the legal regulations on
handling, transporting and disposing of drive
batteries.
