4.1 Learning cycle
Aer lly charging the battery for the rst time and
thereaer roughly once every six months, you must
run the battery down until the system switches o.
This procedure (a so-called “learning cycle”) is nec-
essary so that the battery management recognises
the changes in the capacity caused by age and wear
and tear, in other words, the performance level of
the battery. Aerwards, the capacity of the battery is
calculated anew and correctly represented. With this
procedure, you can prevent a sudden loss of electrical
assistance during an extended trip.
