7. Maintenance and Cleaning
7.1. Battery
The battery is one of the key elements of your BEEQ, and by following some sim-
ple rules you can optimize its lifespan:
· Do not stock your battery without any charge for prolonged periods; the battery
can go into a deep discharge which will shorten its lifespan.
· The battery can be stocked without use or charging for up to a year, but it must
be left charged to 70%.
· If stored for a long period of time, its recommended to charge it every 6 months.
· Even if it can bear being stocked in temperatures of -20°C to +60°C, you will
optimize its lifespan if you keep it at an ambient temperature (20°C).
· Respect the temperature conditions for usage which are -5°C to 40°C.
· Never leave your battery exposed to high temperatures or in direct sunlight for
a long period (for example in the back of a car in full sunlight).
· Ensure that the contact points are always clean and do not insert metallic ob-
jects.
· The battery is conceived in order to be recyclable.
· Do not throw them away in normal rubbish or the tip. There is a speciic treat-
ment (ask your local retailer for advice).
· Be careful, the transport of Lithium-ion batteries is subject to strict rules.
7.2. Battery Charging
The bike is supplied with a charger, which is designed to work with a 230 V and
50 Hz power supply and must not be used on any other. (Check the label on the
charger)
The ambient temperature must be within the range of 0 °C to 40 °C. The charger
will get very hot during charging. Ensure the charger is used in a clean and highly
inlammable environment.
WARNING
The drive battery may only be charged with the supplied charg-
er. Noncompliance can lead to a ire or explosion.
If moisture penetrates the charger there is a risk of electric
shock.
The charger’s power cable should be connected to a household earthed power
socket.
The charger’s cable is inserted into the charging socket of the drive battery on
6. Operation of the EPA
6.1. Display
The ebike is equipped with a display to switch the pedelec on and o, activate and
control support from the electric motor or switch on the headlights
For detailed operations for your model, please refer to the online speciication
(https://www.beeq-bicycles.com/the-range).
6.2. Walk assist mode (Sliding Aid)
The sliding aid is available for starting or pushing the wheel. The drive of the
pedelec supports the movement of the wheel. The sliding aid can be activated
up to a speed of < 6 km/h. You use the sliding aid when sliding the wheel, when
starting o or when assisted starting on a hill. If you push the wheel, you move
beside the wheel. Use the sliding aid as a starting aid when sitting on the bike. In
both cases, the activated sliding aid moves the pedelec.
WARNING
The sliding aid moves the pedelec. Grasp the handlebar grips and
be ready to apply the brakes. When sitting on the bike, do not press
the pedals. Your power and the sliding aid could accelerate the
pedelec very strongly. The second pedal also moves and can injure
you when you climb up! Do not use the sliding aid for slow driving.
For detailed operations for your model, please refer to the online speciication
(https://www.beeq-bicycles.com/the-range).
6.3. Troubleshooting
If the pedelec presents some kind of error, it will appear in the form of an error code.
For detailed operations for your model, please refer to the online speciication
(https://www.beeq-bicycles.com/the-range).
Note the error codes!
Error codes can indicate serious errors in the pedelec system. These
errors prevent safe operation of the pedelec. Accidents with per-
sonal injury and damage to the pedelec may occur. Stop using the
pedelec. Inform yourself about the meaning of the error code and
observe the solution approach. If the meaning of the error code is
unclear, stop the drive and turn o the wheel. Contact the manufac-
turer, the dealer or your garage for information on the next steps
