You cannot use the battery immediately after shipment.
The battery can be used after charging it with the designated charger.
Be sure to charge it before use. The battery can be used when the LED on it lights up.
The use of a genuine SHIMANO battery is recommended. If using a battery from another manufacturer, make sure to
carefully read the instruction manual for the battery before use.
Charging the battery
Charging time varies depending on the remaining capacity of the battery and the charger used. For the designated charging
time, refer to the charger user manual.
DANGER
•
Use the battery and charger combination specified by the company for charging and follow the charging conditions specified by the
company. Not doing so may cause overheating, bursting, or ignition of the battery.
CAUTION

When charging the battery while it is mounted on the bicycle, be careful not to trip over the charger cord or get anything caught
on it. This may lead to injury or cause the bicycle to fall over, damaging the components.
NOTE

When removing the battery charger power plug from the outlet or the charging
plug from the battery, do not pull it out by the cord, or it causes breakage.

If the bicycle is stored for an extended period of time immediately after purchase,
you will need to charge the battery before using the bicycle. Once the battery is
charged, it starts to deteriorate.
