1.7.3 Battery Capacity
Among other factors, the operating range per battery charge also depends on
the following influencing factors.
How to get
the most out
of a battery
charge
• Gross weight and rolling friction: For example, additionally carried
weight, trailer, low tire pressure, grazing brakes, worn components,
headwind.
• Topography
• Ambient temperature: By principle, the battery can only deliver its
maximum capacity within given temperature limits (

Table 6 on
page 38).
• Support level/start-up/acceleration/changing gears: The more you
make use of motorized assistance (thus especially at start-up, during
acceleration, and when climbing a hill), the less your distance and
operating range will be.
Use the gears as with a “normal” bike. Thereby, shift early into a lower
gear when climbing a hill.
Running
empty
You may fully discharge the battery. The internal controller ensures that the
battery does not suffer damage. However, the battery should be recharged
soon thereafter, at the latest within a week.
Shutdown The BIKE DRIVE switches off completely after approximately 15 minutes without
power output. To recommence the motorized ride, restart the BIKE DRIVE
(

“Before the Ride” on page 8).
System warm
Cause: You have pushed the BIKE DRIVE to the maximal permitted
temperature of the motor or the battery.
What happens now? Just keep on going!
The motor will automatically regulate to the highest possible torque output
without exceeding the maximum permitted temperature of the motor or the
battery.
The more you relieve the motor, the sooner you can expect to return to reach
full torque. Thereby, cooling of the battery takes significantly longer than the
cooling of the motor.
