5.1 Charging the battery
If you only want to go for a quick test run, you do not need
to charge the battery completely. You should definitely
charge it before the first long trip 8.3.1 Charging the
battery, Page US-80, because for technical reasons, the
battery is supplied only partially charged– (approximately
50%).
NOTICE
Perform a 'learning cycle': You should completely run down a new,
fully charged battery once until the assistance stops and without
recharging it in between. In that way the battery 'learns' its capacity,
and the actual capacity will agree with the level indicated on the
battery status display. As soon as the battery enters Sleep mode,
press the battery button for 1 second. Then the learn cycle can be
continued. Please perform a learning cycle every six months or 3100
miles. If you do not repeat this from time to time, the actual capacity
of the battery will increasingly diverge from the value on the battery
status display.
