Battery & Charging
•
It may happen that same bicycles purchased at the
same time give a different range. New batteries
provide minimal their specified values. There can
be a slight variation, so it is possible that one of the
bikes performs above specifications.
•
With long-term storage, place the battery in a
shady, cool and dry place.
Never connect the positive contact point of the
battery to the negative contact point.
Do not expose the battery to high
temperatures (> 50 °C), such as heat and fire.
It is not allowed to use or recharge a damaged
battery. Please contact your dealer immediately
in case the battery is damaged.
Do not open or disassemble the battery.
Consult your dealer in case the battery is not
working properly.
Further information on your battery
•
The battery is sealed and therefore resistant to
rain. So you can use your bike good in bad weather.
However, try not to expose the battery to large
amounts of water.
•
The battery pack can, under ideal conditions, be
fully charged and discharged around 1000 - 1500
times. The performance will slowly decline by lots
of use, and eventually the battery pack should be
replaced.
•
The performance of the battery will decrease at
low temperatures. The referred range is optimal at
a measured temperature of approxi/-25
°C. The guideline is that the capacity decreases by 1
% at a 1 °C temperature drop.
•
The capacity will increase at least the first 10
charging cycles (e.g. up to appoximately 1000 km
with the 625 Wh battery) and only then reach its
fully specified capacity range.
•
The environmental burden is not heavy, electricity
is part of clean forms of energy. Just like any other
battery, your battery should be submitted in order
to be recycled at the end of the life cycle (look for a
drop-off point in your area).
