Backup battery (optional)
The bike can be supplied with a second battery.
To activate the second battery (when the first
battery is empty), turn the switch under the
luggage carrier to the right sight.
Keep in mind that your bike provides less support when it’s cold (0ºC and less) and the
battery will discharge faster. Charging also takes more time at lower temperatures.
The action radius depends on a lot of different factors and is strongly influenced by:
capacity and voltage of the battery, degree of support that is used, temperature, wind
speed, tyre pressure, cycling speed, weight of the user, passenger’s and the luggage,
use of gearing etcetera.
Charging and maintenance tips for the battery
Every battery discharges automatically over time. This process is called self-discharge.
A battery that is empty and not charged, will self-discharge and will be deep
discharged. The battery can be permanently damaged during this process. In case of
deep discharge, the warranty will be void.
Please note that any battery will wear over time. The wearing process of the battery is
inevitable and depends on several factors, such as usage, number of charge cycles and
the ambient temperature. Even if the battery is not used, its capacity will decrease. A
worn battery can still be used, but please bear in mind that its charge level may
decrease.
