Maintaining Your Battery
35 36
Disconnect if charge is not completed after 8 hours
Do not use outside & ensure charge socket on battery is totally dry before connecting.
Ensure the charger is OFF prior to connecting to the battery.
Do not charge in hot areas.
Only charge on a hard surface away from flammable objects.
Do not leave the charger and battery unattended while charging.
TIP: Only charging your battery to approximately 80% of its full charge can nearly double the
useful lifespan of your battery!
How long does it take to charge the battery?
Total time will vary depending on the capacity of your battery and its current charge level. Generally
you can expect a full charge of the battery (from 5% charge level) to occur between 4 and 8 hours
after charging is commenced.
Maintaining Your Battery
Generally there are no user-serviceable features or functions of your battery. Only some batteries have
user-serviceable fuses, please check with your Reid Dealer.
Lithium-ion batteries have exceptional abilities, but they are sensitive to heat and both their intended
minimum and maximum voltages. Generally it is best to avoid allowing the internal cell temperature
above 42 degrees celsius as this will cause damage to the chemistry of the batteries. Avoid charging
when the battery is hot.
NOTE: The charging process will cause the battery to warm up and this is normal, while charging
the battery should not exceed its safe operating temperatures.
Some Helpful Advice:
Wait at least 30 minutes after riding before charging.
Do not leave your battery in direct sunlight, small sheds or in your car.
If you can feel the battery casing is warm, allow it sufficient time to cool down before recharging or
using it.
Do not leave your battery fully charged or fully flat for extended periods of time.
If you do not ride regularly, ensure you charge your battery for at least 1 to 2 hours every 90 days,
ideally maintaining charge status between 40% and 70% charged.
Avoid charging your battery to 100% capacity after each ride.
