6. Routine Maintenance
Various factors like operation environment (such as temperature, humidity,
dust, etc.), aging and wear of internal components, will increase the possi-
bilities of battery failure. In order to avoid this, keep your battery in optimal
operating state, and eventually extend the service lifespan of NAVY Battery.
Therefore, routine maintenance is very important.
Before the rst time use or reuse after long-term storage, charge the bat-
tery to its full capacity in order to achieve the best performance. Only use
ePropulsion charger designed for NAVY Battery. Other chargers may lead
to shortened runtime, premature battery failure, or even re or explosion.
Avoid over-charging, which may cause re or explosion.
Use the battery in moderate temperature to avoid negative effects of ex-
treme temperature posed on battery lifespan and useful cycles. Apply
contact spay after use to keep the battery contacts in good condition.
Once a fault occurs, deal with the problem in time to avoid any further
damage. If necessary, consult the ePropulsion authorized dealer for repair
or parts replacement.
During storage, strictly follow the instructions in section 5.2 Storage. Pay
special attention to the residual charge and check the battery state in a
regular manner. Also remember to apply contact spay at least once every
3 months.
Use clean & dry towel to keep the battery surface away from oil, dirt and
water. Avoid touching metal contacts. All the contacts need to be kept
clean for best performance. When carrying batteries around, do not touch
the contacts with metal objects such as keys or tools to avoid short circuit,
battery damage, and potential re or explosion.
Always follow the instructions provided with the battery manufacturer. Re-
fer to this user manual and nd the latest version available at www.ePro-

To improve functionality and prolong lifespan of NAVY Battery, avoid di-
rect sunshine or radiation exposure. Meanwhile, avoid liquid, dust or mud
entering the battery.
When the battery is getting low, please stop discharging and charge the
battery as soon as possible. It’s advised to check the battery level on a
regular basis.
