5.1 Charging the battery
Before using the bicycle for the first time, it is necessary to charge the battery for at least 6
hours, until charging is complete, using the supplied battery charger.
The bicycle is powered by a 36 V lithium-ion battery.
The average charging time is around 6 hours. The batteries are of the lithium type.
To extend the life of the battery as much as possible, a full charge every thirty days is
recommended, even if the bicycle is not used.
We recommend charging the battery with its special battery charger after each use of the
pedal-assist bicycle.
Charging with the battery inserted:
Insert the charger plug into the socket on the frame.
Connect the battery charger to the mains socket (230 V/50 Hz).
Charging with the battery removed:
Open the frame with the appropriate release device.
Insert the key into the lock on the battery base, hold the battery base with one hand and turn
the key counterclockwise, then pull out the battery to bring the battery to the workbench. Insert
the charger plug into the socket on the battery;
Connect the battery charger to the mains socket (230 V/50 Hz).
During charging, the red light in the charger is illuminated, when charging is
complete, the red light goes out, and the green light comes on.
