Wait until the light on the charger turns green for a full charge. You should expect a full
charge in fewer than 3 hours. If it fails to charge, please look at the troubleshooting section
for further information.
NOTE: You do not always need to wait for a full charge, you may use your batteries at any
time since the batteries have no memory. For extended use, it will always be better to get
a full charge so that you do not deplete your batteries too far when you ride. It is better in
the long run to use less than 80% capacity of the battery when riding if possible
.
