IMPORTANT
HOW TO STORE YOUR BATTERY ?
It is essential that you look after battery maintenance at regular intervals.
This is particularly important during the winter, when you are not using your
bicycle for long periods.
THAT’S ALL THERE IS TO IT.
CHARGING YOUR BATTERY FOR 1 HOUR EVERY 60 DAYS
WHENEVER YOU’RE NOT USING IT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT
THING TO REMEMBER!
NEVER LEAVE THE BATTERY CONNECTED TO THE CHARGER AND
TO ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLET FOR MORE THAN 24 HOURS. THIS
COULD DAMAGE THE CHARGER AND THE BATTERY.
NEVER CONNECT YOUR BATTERY AND YOUR CHARGER TO AN
ELECTRICAL OUTLET FOR AN OVERLY LONG PERIOD OF TIME
(DURING THE WHOLE WINTER FOR INSTANCE). THIS WILL DAMAGE
YOUR BATTERY AND YOUR CHARGER. THIS MUST ABSOLUTELY
BE AVOIDED.
MINIMUM BATTERY MAINTENANCE
SCHEDULE
Do not expose it to extremes of heat (more than 40ºC) or cold (-10ºC) or to
damp conditions (rain, water, garage, shed, hangar or unheated basement).
Even though your battery is of the so-called ‘no-memory’ type, it is advisable
to recondition it at regular intervals by running it down and recharging it com-
pletely (8 hours).
YOU MUST AVOID USING AN EAB DURING THE WINTER (FOR YOUR
SAFETY AND FOR PROPER FUNCTIONING OF YOUR EAB). AVOID SALT,
SAND, CALCIUM, WATER AND ICE AND YOUR EBGO WILL PERFORM
MUCH BETTER. USING YOUR BICYCLE IN SUCH CONDITIONS WOULD
VOID YOUR WARRANTY.
TIPS
EBGO recommends that the owner operate and circulate the EAB for a
period of six (6) to twelve (12) hours, depending on the level of experience
of the user. This will allow the owner to become familiar with the operation
of the EAB and to develop a degree of knowledge and skill and habits
sufficient required in order to provide its user a level of security that can be
expected.
Regularly check the tire pressure to ride with tires inflated to the pressure
suggested by the manufacturer (see recommendations on the sidewall of
the tire). For every pound of air lesser than the recommended standard,
you reduce your range by 1 km.
1. LG 48V / 10Ah Lithium Battery (480Wh) without memory which can be
charged at any time. With a full charge, you should do around 80km range,
on asphalt pavement, 20km/h, no headwind with a load of 80Kg.
2. For maximum use, please charge your battery when it is at 75% usage.
3. Allow your battery to charge until the 4 green lights are on. We recom-
mend charging the battery overnight and the Smart Charger will stop the
charge when it is completed.
4. During the winter, charge your battery every 2 months to maintain the
quality and endurance of the battery.
WEARING A HELMET IS MANDATORY IN CANADA WITH ANY
EAB.
