DRIVE SYSTEM
RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
The E-bike is equipped with a high-performance lithium ion rechargeable battery. The rechargeable bat-
tery supplies the drive system and the lighting with power.
The power of the rechargeable battery depends on its age, type and frequency of use, as well as mainte-
nance. The full performance (capacity) of a new rechargeable battery is only achieved after approx. 2–5
complete charging processes. Complete means that only one LED of the rechargeable battery charging
display is lit before charging and charging is not interrupted prematurely.
The rechargeable battery is a wear part and subject to natural capacity reduction in use. For more infor-
mation regarding warranty/guarantee, see the chapter warranty in these operating instructions.
