Conditions that affect your battery’s range:
• Temperature: Extreme cold and heat can affect the battery’s capacity.
• Total Number of Charge Cycles: As the battery ages, total capacity can decrease.
• The battery has a total of ,000 full cycles when it’s new.
• Wind: Riding into a strong headwind can decrease range.
• Road Conditions: Excessively rough or hilly terrain requires the consumption of
more power.
• Load: Carrying extra cargo on the bike or in a backpack will use more energy.
• Rider Weight: please observe the max weight of 325 lbs (47kg).
• Repeated acceleration from a standing start.
• Poor Maintenance: Under-inflated tires, maladjusted brakes, a dry or dirty chain
can decrease range.
Tips for Maximizing Range:
• Charge the battery at a comfortable temperature range between 65°F - 75°F
(8.3°C- 23.9°C).
• Lithium-ion batteries have no chemical memory, and it is not necessary to
discharge the battery completely for the best performance. Charging a partially
full battery will have no negative effect.
• Maintain proper tire pressure and lube the chain regularly.
• Operating temperatures between 40°F - 85°F (4°C - 30°C) will significantly
increase range.
Range in cold weather:
• In case of extreme cold, the range of your electric bike is reduced. It is a normal
physical process, and in no case a damage or defect of the battery. If you use
your battery when temperatures rise, it’s energy will increase again.
• We advise you to store the battery and charge it at room temperature during cold
days. The power consumption warms the battery and you benefit from a good
battery life, even when it is cold outside.
• In winter, however, plan for shorter trips or pedal with a lower level of assistance.
The maximum range of a full charge depends on many variables such as: age of
battery, type of terrain and incline, rider weight, speed, outside temperature, driving
style, amount of pedaling, or tire pressure.
DANGER!
Never charge the battery in a flammable environment. For safety reasons, the
charger and the battery must be placed on a dry, non-flammable surface.
Never charge or use a defective or damaged battery or charger. Never send a
battery by postal mail by yourself! A battery is in the category of hazardous/
dangerous goods and requires certification to send by mail. Doing so without proper
certification is punishable by law.
Immediately remove the battery from the Super73 if you notice damage to the
electrical system and visit your local E-bike Specialist for inspection or contact
Super73 directly. Any lack of professional expertise may cause damage or serious
injury.
