BionX RIDE+ - Battery Pack Care and Warnings

EN-25
ENGLISH
The light at the charging port of the battery pack will turn red. It will turn yellow as soon as charging
starts.Assoonastheyellowlightonthebatterychargingportturnsgreen,thebatterypackisfully
charged. Disconnect both the connector from the battery pack and the power source.
Chargingafullydischargedbatterypackusuallytakesaboutthreetofivehours(dependingofits
maximumcapacity).Afteronehourofcharging,thebatterypackwillalreadybechargedupto
80%ofitscapacity.
The battery packs with the round charging connector can be left connected to the power indefinitely.
The power supply electronics will take care of the correct charging procedure. However, you will save
energy by disconnecting the power supply when the light in the charging port has turned green.
NOTICE. Since the computer inside the battery pack saves the system mileage and settings,
we discourage the use of a second battery pack. A second power supply would be a better solution.
The battery pack is very durable. The capacity is guaranteed for 600 charge cycles or 2 years
(whichever situation comes first).

WARNING. Mishandling of the battery pack could lead to severe damage or over-heating.
In an extremely rare case, a battery pack that has been severely impacted or otherwise mis-handled could
potentially catch fire. In an emergency situation, fully immerse the battery pack in a large container of water.
• Storage of the battery pack
Whenthebatterypackisnotinuse,storeitinadry,coolplace.Li-Ionbatteriesarebeststoredata
100%charge.Thetemperatureshouldbebetween5°Cand25°C,preferably5-10°C.Donotstoreit
inplaceswheretemperaturesgethigherthan+25°Corlowerthan5°C.Keepawayfromextreme
temperaturechanges.Keepthebatterypackfromcondensationtopreventcorrosionformingonthe
terminals. Failure to follow these instructions result in damage to your battery and may require
battery replacement.
The battery pack can be stored for up to one year before a recharge is necessary, provided it was
100%chargedfirst.Wehoweverrecommendtochargeitonceeverysixmonths(whennotinuse).
NOTICE. It will need ‘waking up’ out of ‘deep sleep’ if it has not been used for a longer period of time.
To ‘wake it up’, it suffices to connect the power supply to the battery pack and a wall socket. This will
directly activate the battery pack again for normal use.
When the battery pack is not in use, we recommend to charge it at least once every six months.
