•  The battery must not be subjected to mechanical 

impact. However, if this should happen, the battery 

must be checked by the manufacturer. Contact your 

servicing agent. You must not continue to use a 

damaged battery. 

•  If damaged or defective, the battery must be singled out 

and checked. Please contact your specialist dealer and 

discuss with them the next steps with regard to return 

and repair. The defective/damaged battery must not be 

used again or opened. 

•  Always ensure that the battery is kept clean and dry.

•  Charge battery on a fire-and-heat-resistant 

underground. Do not place easily flammable or 

flammable objects close to the battery.

•  Mishandling can lead to overheating, fire or explosions.

Safety instructions and precautions on how to store 

the battery:

WARNING!

•  Protect the battery immediately upon separating from 

the battery charger or motor. Never allow any moisture 

or foreign particles (e.g. metal fragments, small nails, 

filings or other conductive metals) to get into the 

battery. 

•  Do not expose the battery to moisture of any kind 

during storage (water, rainwater, snow, etc.). 

•  Before storing it, charge the battery and check its 

charge status every 3 months. 

•  Store the battery in a cool and dry location where it is 

safe from damage and unauthorised access. 

•  To achieve the optimum battery service life, it should be 

stored at a temperature from 10°C to 25°C and at a 

humidity of 20% to 75%.

•  Battery storing conditions can be found in technical 

specification section.

•  Avoid direct sunlight. 

•  When the battery is not in use, recharge it at least 

every 12 weeks to prevent damage. 

Safety instructions and precautions on the charging 

process:

WARNING!

•  Only charge the battery in a ventilated, dry and dust-

free environment. 

•  Do not charge the battery in the presence or vicinity of 

flammable liquids or gases. 

•  Do not expose the battery to moisture of any kind 

during charging (water, rainwater, snow, etc.). 

•  Do not carry out the charging process in rooms where 

moisture may affect the battery. 

•  The battery must only be charged at temperatures 

between 0 °C and 40 °C. If you attempt to carry out a 

charging process outside of this temperature range, the 

battery mechanism automatically switches off the 

charging process. 

•  Only use the designated charger to charge the battery. 

Your specialist dealer can provide the relevant 

information. 

DANGER!

•  Using an unsuitable battery charger can lead to 

malfunction and result in the battery having a limited 

service life. There is also a danger of fire and explosion. 

•  When the charging process is complete, disconnect the 

charger from the mains socket first before 

disconnecting it from the battery. 

• 

Ensure adequate air circulation as soon as the battery 

is charged. In principle, only charge the battery under 

supervision. 

•  Damaged batteries must not be recharged or used any 

further. 

•  Damaged battery chargers (damage to the plug, 

housing, cable) must not be used. 

Safety information and precautions on how to 

transport and ship the battery: 

WARNING!

•  Lithium-ion cells are used in the battery. Transport and 

shipping of the battery are, therefore, subject to all 

applicable statutory requirements, which must be 

strictly observed. For instance, a defective battery must 

never be transported by plane. 

•  If your battery is defective, take it personally to your 

specialist dealer as shipping lithium-ion batteries by 

post or other carriers is subject to strict rules and 

regulations. Once again, we recommend that you 

contact your specialist dealer. 

•  As transport regulations may change annually, we 

strongly recommend that you consult your travel 

operator, airline or shipping line before you set out on 

your trip in order to learn about the current applicable 

regulations. A defective battery must not be taken on a 

plane or put in your luggage. 

NOTE:

•  If your battery is fitted to the pulling device when being 

transported, relaxed transport regulations apply in 

accordance with UN3481. 

•  Make sure you keep the packaging container of the 

battery in case you need to transport it. 

•  Discuss transportation with your specialist dealer prior 

to shipping.
