NiMH BATTERY INFORMATION
The NiMh battery consists of cells, connected in sequence, mounted on a plastic support and wired with two
connectors: one specific for connection to the battery charger and a cable, ending with a red connector, intended
for connecting the battery to the SUEX Scooter powertrain.
A new battery will only function at full capacity after four or five full charge cycles.
Extreme temperatures can affect the charging capacity of the battery.
Leaving the battery in hot or cold environments, such as in a completely closed car in summer or winter, will reduce
the capacity and life of the battery itself. Always try to keep the batteries between 15 ° C and 25 ° C. Battery
performance is significantly reduced at temperatures below 0 ° C.
Even when not in use, a fully charged battery slowly discharges due to the self-discharge phenomenon; it is
recommended to charge the batteries within 24 hours of the last use and at least once a month and, in any case,
make sure that they never completely discharge.
When the battery performance is below 20% of normal, it needs to be replaced.
Use only batteries approved by SUEX s.r.l., charging them only with the relative approved chargers.
