FIRE HAZARD
Improper use of the battery may result in
a re hazard.
The lithium-ion battery may be damaged
by improper handling. It is therefore impor-
tant to take precautions when dealing with
the battery.
Improper repair or service of the battery
may result in a re hazard.
Use of incorrect or damaged charger may
result in a battery-external short-circuit.
If the battery is exposed to strong external
heat, a battery-internal short-circuit could
result.
External impacts, such as a fall or drop-
ping of the battery, can make the battery
prone to failure.
Do not charge batteries in the vicinity of
ammable materials. Do not charge the
battery overnight when it is completely un-
attended.
A smoke detector should be present where
the battery is charged. If a battery re does
occur, do not attempt to extinguish it with
water. Use a class ABC dry chemical re
extinguisher or smother it with sand.
Do not store in cold rooms
In general, it is also advisable not to store
batteries in rooms with a temperature be-
low freezing for a long period of time. If
you park your pedelec in the non-heated
garage for a long period in winter, store the
batteries separately in a heated room.
Whenever the pedelec will not be used for
a long period of time, the battery should be
stored in a dry and cool place with 30 to 60
percent charging capacity.
Caution is also required for deeply dis-
charged batteries that have not been used
for a long time. Do not charge a battery
when it is bulged. The same applies to bat-
teries that have fallen or otherwise dam-
aged. Physical damage can signicantly
increase the risk of explosion.
Damaged / defective / deeply discharged
batteries may heat up as a result of chemi-
cal reactions and may cause a re hazard.
Store such batteries in reproof dry con-
tainers or rooms until disposal.
FUELL Inc disclaims any liability for such
batteries in the event of improper storage.
