INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHARGER AND BATTERY
The nameplate on the charger points to warnings and other safety information to bear in mind when handling the
battery charger.
Only use the charger included in the scope of delivery of your e-bike. This is the only charger suited to the Li-ion
battery used in your e-bike.
Fully charge the battery with the charger before you first use it to ensure full power from the battery.
Do not connect the charger to the socket immediately after a sudden temperature change from cold to warm.
There is a possibility of condensation forming on the contacts and then causing a short circuit. Wait until both
charger and battery reach room temperature before connecting the charger or battery.
The battery can be charged directly or in the e-bike without shortening its service life. Interrupting the charging
process does not damage the battery.
The battery is fitted with a temperature monitoring system, which only allows charging within the stipulated
temperature range.

CHARGING OPTIONS
The battery can be charged while inserted in the e-bike or after it has been removed. Look in the e-bike manufacturer’s

socket (or directly to the battery) to charge. The charge indicator will automatically appear on the e-bike display screen
if the battery is fitted into the e-bike. The display backlight will go out after a certain period of time. However, you
can press the On-Off button to switch it back on again at any time.
