Battery removal and general care
Battery unit layout:
Battery indicator display Lock
The battery is removed by unlocking it – don’t
attempt to forcibly remove the battery without
unlocking it rst. Be sure that it’s fully in place and
secured before riding – make sure that the key is
turned fully to the right and removed.
When removing the battery or handling, avoid
dropping the battery as this can damage the cells
and cause malfunction.
When re-tting the battery, be sure to give it a rm
push into position. There’s no need to force it, just
enough pressure to be sure that the connections
are made and that the locking pin can engage and
lock the battery in place before riding.
Riding with the battery unlocked may cause it to
disconnect over a bump, losing power until it’s re-
tted correctly. Always make sure the battery is
locked in place before riding.
• Only use the supplied charger to charge
the battery.
• Store the battery in a cool, dry location.
• To maintain maximum capacity during long
term storage, the optimum charge level for the
lithium-ion battery is around 40%.
However, fully charged is better than empty
– a stored at battery may not accept charge
in future.
• Charge the battery for 1 to 1.5 hours per
2-month period while unused (see charging
information below).
• Avoid washing all over with a hose. The
battery casing is rated to IPX2, and is not
designed to withstand constant spray.
• Don’t connect the positive and negative
terminals directly – this will cause a
short circuit.
• Do not expose the battery to high temperature
e.g. close to central heating radiators, direct
sunlight or inside a car on a hot day.
• Do not place the battery in water or expose to
salts, solvents, acids or bases.
• Avoid prolonged exposure to elements. It’s
waterproof and suitable for wet weather
cycling, but it’s not designed to be stored
outdoors for extended periods.
• Never disassemble the battery.
