Use and storage of the battery
You can use your Metz moover at
temperatures between – 10 and + 40
degrees Celsius.
Store the battery/Metz moover in a dry and well-
ventilated place. Temperatures between 5 °C to
35 °C are recommended.
If you do not require the battery/Metz moover for a
longer period of time, e.g. a period of 3 – 6 months
during winter, then best store the battery/Metz
moover with a charger status of 40 – 60%. This re-
sults in a slower ageing of the battery than if it is
fully charged. Check this charger status every 12
weeks and charge if necessary.
Make sure that the battery is not discharged for a
longer period because a total discharge can result
in irreversible cell damage.
In the event of a deep discharge: If the battery is
discharged, it must be charged within 2 – 3 days in
order to avoid a total discharge.
Battery charger
Observe the instructions on the bat-
tery charger prior to charging the
battery.
• Only use the battery charger in dry rooms and
never cover it during operation. Else there is a
risk of a short-circuit or fire.
• Do not charge the battery immediately after a
journey as it may still be warm.
• Switch the electrical system off prior to charging
the battery.
• Pay attention to the supply voltage when con-
necting the battery charger! The voltage of the
power source must conform to the specifica-
tions on the type plate of the battery charger.
• If you clean the battery charger, always discon-
nect it from the power source.
• Once the charge process is complete, the bat-
tery charger must be disconnected from the
power supply.
For safety reasons the battery charg-
er must be placed on a dry and non-
flammable substrate during the
charge process.
A faulty battery must not be charged
or used. The battery may feel warm
during charging. In doing so, a tem-
perature of maximum 45° C is still considered
to be acceptable. If the temperature is higher,
the charge process is automatically interrupt-
ed.
Charge the battery
Please note that in the event of a
sudden change in temperature from
cold to warm may it result in the for-
mation of condensation on the contacts of
the charging socket. Avoid doing so by stor-
ing your Metz moover where you charge it.
Only use the specified battery charger or one
that was approved by the manufacturer to
charge your device.
It is best to charge the battery in a
warm environment than a cold one.
The approved charging tempera-
tures are between 0 and + 40 degrees Celsi-
us.
If it is particularly cold, it is advantageous to store
and charge the vehicle in a warm environment be-
cause this shortens the charge time.
The connector for the charging cable is located on
the front on the left side of the step.
