You may charge your battery at any time,
as this type of battery does not have any
‘memory effect’ and the charger is of the
‘smart type’; it will stop charging by itself
once the battery is fully charged.
The battery must be charged at least
every two months.
A full charge of a battery when
empty should take a maximum of
8hours to complete.
If your battery is not fully charged
after 8hours, unplug it immediately
and contact a Trivel authorized
dealer for a charger battery
malfunction diagnostic.
Never leave the battery connected
to the charger for more than 24
hours!
CHARGING THE BATTERY OF YOUR ELECTRIC
POWER ASSIST SYSTEM
When should the battery be charged?
It is recommended to charge the battery
as needed. For instance, if you only use
your electric vehicle during brief periods
of time and for short rides, the battery
may be recharged following several such
rides.
If, on the other hand, you are planning
a long ride of 40 km/25 miles or more,
it is recommended to fully charge your
battery before leaving.
Generally speaking, if the battery charge
indicator on the handlebar or on the
battery indicates there is less than a 50 %
charge remaining, charging of the battery
is recommended.
To charge the battery:
1. Connect the AC power plug into the
charger.
2. Plug the AC power plug into an electrical
outlet. Check that the LED indicator on the
charger lights up to confirm that power is
going through.
3. Lift the rubber protector cap and Connect
the charging plug into the socket on the
battery.
4. Check that the LED indicators on the
battery are flashing to confirm that
charging is underway.
5. Let battery charge until it is fully charged.
6. Pull the charging plug from the battery
and replace the rubber protector cap.
