Figure 20: Rechargeable battery of the Alfine Di2
electric switching
The rechargeable battery charge level of the
electric switching is also visible on the display.
When the charge state is low (thus when only
one rechargeable battery bar is shown), the
rechargeable battery must be recharged. For
this purpose, the rechargeable battery is
removed as follows: the flap on the side is
opened and the push button is pressed-in
(figure 21). Now the rechargeable battery can
be pulled out along the retaining rail and
charged using the charger included in the
scope of supply. During the charging
procedure, an orange lamp is visible (figure
22).

charging
Figure 22: Rechargeable battery and charger
The fully charged rechargeable battery (visible
on the charger when the orange lamp goes
out) is pushed back along the retaining rail until
you can feel a slight resistance. When closing
the flap on the side, the rechargeable battery is
completely secured and is connected fixed.
Now the gears are ready for use again.
