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.
Beware:
Never leave the bike with an empty battery! We advise you charge the battery as
soon as possible before it’s totally empty.
The best storage-charge of the battery is when three to five LED lights burn.
Check the battery every month in the winter. If fewer than three LED lights burn,
recharge the battery.
Make sure that the battery is not charged at a temperature lower than -5ºC. We
advise you charge the battery at room temperature.
Only use the charger indoors and in non-humid
environments, the charger may
not
get wet.
Only use the Van Raam supplied battery.
Only charge the battery with the supplied charger!
The battery housing ánd charger housing may never be opened! When there is a
problem, contact your dealer.
Don’t charge the battery in full sunshine.
Don’t drop the battery, this can cause external and internal damage.
If your bicycle has a fault, the battery should be disconnected for the bicycle.
Problem solving
The system does not turn on:
1. Make sure that the battery is properly attached.
2. Check the status of the battery. If it is empty, recharge the battery.
3. Make sure the battery is active. If the battery is not used for several days it
will shut itself down. The battery can be reactivated by recharging it briefly,
pushing and holding down the on/off button while cycling (less than 10km/h),
or on certain batteries by pushing the indicator button on the battery until the
indicator appears.
4. If the above action does not help, contact your dealer.
If the battery indicator LED lights on the display are flashing:
The motor may be overheated by continuous high load. For protection, the system
will reduce the support.
1. The system is in temperature-protection. You can continue cycling with
reduced support.
2. After cooling down, the normal support and indication will restore
automatically.
If the support LED lights on the display are flashing:
This indicates motor failure. You will need to contact your dealer.
If a red LED light on the charger starts flashing, remove the plug form the mains
outlet and do not longer use the charger. In this case, contact your dealer.
