Quick Tips
Don’t start your bike when the battery is on the bike and charging at the same time. This can potentially
damage the battery.
Don’t leave a fully discharged battery uncharged for more than a week this will shorten the lifespan of your
battery the longer you leave it in a fully discharged state
Don't leave your battery for more than 3 months without a top-up charge.
Don’t allow the battery to freeze outside during winters, keep them inside when not in use
Don't use your charger outdoors it is for indoor use only.
Do keep your charger dry and free from moisture
Do top up your battery whenever possible. Lithium batteries prefer shallow discharge (the opposite of older
types of batteries that have memory effects).
Do keep your battery topped up between rides to prolong the life of your battery and give you more power
too, as a full battery is better on the hills
Do disconnect your battery from the charger when it is charged. Leaving it connected permanently when
not in use will shorten cell life.
Note: A battery left for more than 3 months at a low voltage may suffer cell damage. This will not be covered
under your warranty
If charging your battery while it is still docked into the bike simply make sure the bike (including
charger) is not on or leaning against a flammable surface. Same for charging the battery off the bike,
make sure the battery and charger are placed on a fire-rated surface (concrete floor, steel bench or
shelf, etc).
