When the battery is fully charged, remove the cable, then remove the
DC charging connector and the AC power plug.

hours depending on the level of use.

If you are not using the EasyFold PRO 2.0 for two months, we
recommend charging the battery for 6-8 hours before use.

cuts off power to the batteries if the battery is tripped, causing the
motor to stop and preventing damage to the motor and battery.
The life of a lithium battery is measured in charge cycles, with an
average of 500 charge cycles.
Check the battery indicator light daily if you use the EasyFold PRO 2.0
frequently.

Canada.

protection.

materials disposal facility and call them for instructions.
