discharge and the battery capacity could be significantly re-
duced.
Leaving the battery permanently connected to the charger is
not recommended.
Storage conditions
If possible, store the battery in a dry, well-ventilated place.
Protect it against moisture and water. When the weather
conditions are bad, it is advisable to remove the battery from
the eBike and store it in a closed room until you use it next,
for example.
Store the eBike batteries in the following locations:
– In a room with a smoke alarm
– Away from combustible or easily flammable objects
– Away from heat sources
Store the batteries at temperatures between 0°C and
20°C. Never store them at temperatures below –10°C or
above 60°C. To ensure that the service life is as long as pos-
sible, storage at approx. 20°C (room temperature) is re-
commended.
Make sure that the maximum storage temperature is not ex-
ceeded. Do not leave the battery in your car in the summer,
for example, and store it away from direct sunlight.
Leaving the battery on the bicycle for storage is not recom-
mended.

The batteries are subject to legislation on the transport of
dangerous goods. Private users can transport undamaged

requirements.
Do not ship batteries if the housing is damaged. Apply tape
over exposed contacts and pack the battery such that it can-
not move around inside the packaging. Inform your parcel
service that the package contains dangerous goods. Please
also observe any additional national regulations should these
exist.
If you have any questions about transporting the batteries,
contact an authorised bicycle dealer. You can also order suit-
able transport packaging from the dealer.

Batteries, accessories and packaging should be
recycled in an environmentally friendly manner.
Do not dispose of batteries along with household waste.
