BATTERY CHARGING BEST PRACTICES AND INFORMATION
REMOVING THE BATTERY
 Check the charger, charger cables, and battery for damage before beginning each charge.
 Be sure to charge in an area where it is clear and safe from any potential damage or tripping situations
can occur while it is charging. Always charge indoors in a cool and dry area and away from direct sunlight,
dirt, or debris. *Always charge your battery in temperatures between 50 °F – 77 °F (10 °C – 25 °C).
 The battery can be charged on or o the bike. To remove the battery, turn the key to the o and
unlocked position, pull the lever and take the battery out.
 The battery should be recharged after each use, so it is ready to go the full range per charge next
ride. There is no memory eect, so charging the battery after short rides will not cause damage.
 Charging the battery normally takes 3-7 hours. In rare cases, it may take longer to allow the battery
management system to balance the battery, particularly when the bike is new or after long periods of
storage. Balance the battery during the first three charges. See the Balancing the Battery section for
more information.
 The charge indicator lights will show red light while the battery charges. When charging is complete,
the indicator light will turn green. Ensure the light faces upward when charging.
 Remove the charger from the battery within one hour of the green light indicating a complete charge.
The charger is designed to automatically stop charging when the battery is full, but unnecessary wear of
the charging components could occur if the charger is left attached to the battery and a power source for
longer than 12 hours.
 Never charge a battery for more than 12 hours at a time.
 Do not leave a charging battery unattended.
To remove the battery from the bike, insert the key and turn to the unlocked position. Then turn the battery
knob clockwise to release the battery.
Failure to follow Battery Charging Best Practices could result in unnecessary wear to the
charging components, battery, and or charger, and could lead to an underperforming or
non-functional battery and replacement will not be covered under warranty.
Use caution to avoid damage to battery connector terminals, which are exposed when the battery
is unlocked and removed from the frame of the bike. In the case of damage to the terminals or
battery mounts, please discontinue use and contact Aventon Bikes Product Support immediately.
