CHARGING PROCEDURE
1)
Place the charger and battery indoors in a dry ventilated area away from sunlight with the temperature 50-80F.
2)
Locate the battery charging port.
3)
Connect the AC input plug into the outlet. The LED light on the charger should turn GREEN (Charge).
4)
Connect the DC output plug from the charger to the battery port. The LED light on the charger should turn RED
(Charge in the process).
5)
When the battery is fully charged, the LED light on the charger should turn GREEN (Fully Charged).
6)
Unplug the charger from the battery first and then from the outlet.
While the charger automatically stops charging when the battery is full, we strongly recommend to not leave the battery
connected to the charger and outlet for a lengthy period. The average time for charging from low to full is approximately 4 to
6 hours. As the battery ages after 2-3 years of use, you may notice increased charging times and decreased range. If the
battery does not seem to be charging as usual, discontinue charging/using it and contact e-JOE or dealer for assistance.
BASIC BATTERY CARE & MAINTENANCE
•
Keep your lithium battery charged.
Lithium batteries are generally best kept 80% charged.
Do NOT use your
battery in a very low state. Completely discharging a lithium battery below safe levels can cause irreparable
damage to the cells and diminish its capacity. If you do "flatten" your battery, fully re-charge it as soon as possible.
To prevent the battery from irreparable damage, never leave a battery wholly depleted or drained.
•
Keep your electric bike battery clean and dry.
Contacts on the battery should be clean and dry to avoid oxidation
and corrosion. Check the contacts every few months.
•
Keep your lithium battery cool.
The lithium battery is best stored in cool conditions. While storing batteries in cool
conditions is good, remember to warm the battery to room temperature before charging or using it on the bike.
•
Plan for the long-term storage of your electric bike.
If you know you are not going to use your battery for a few
months, it is wise to take some extra precautions. To reduce the loss of capacity over time, yet still preserve the
battery, it is best to store it at about 80% charge. You can estimate this by riding your e
-
bike for about 20% of the
average distance with a fully-charged battery. It's best then to store the battery in a cool well-ventilated place. To
prevent premature failure of your battery and for the warranty on your battery to remain in effect, it is recommended
to charge the battery at least once a month.
IMPORTANT SAFETY WARNINGS!
●
Connect the charger to the outlet first, and then to the battery. Connecting the unplugged charger directly to the
battery may create a spark.
●
While charging, place the battery and charger in a secure place where children or pets cannot reach it.
●
Avoid any contact with water while charging; prevent liquids, metal, and metal filings from permeating the charger.
●
Do not put anything on top of the charger while charging; it must be well ventilated to allow the heat that is
generated to dissipate.
●
Stop charging the battery immediately if you notice a peculiar smell or the charger gets too hot to touch.
●
Do not touch the poles of the battery. The battery poles should not be touched with any other metal or other
material that conducts electricity.
●
Be careful not to drop or hit the battery or the charger as it may damage its components.
●
It is normal for the distance range to reduce as a result of cells aging or battery use in low or high temperatures.
●
Do not attempt to open or repair your charger or battery. Doing so voids the warranty and can result in a safety
hazard. Contact your local e-JOE Bike Dealer or e-JOE technical support.
●
When you need to dispose of a lithium-ion battery, either dispose of the unwanted battery through an approved
recycler or send it to e-JOE. Never dispose of batteries in a fire because they may explode.
