Owner’s Manual
BATTERY CHARGING PROCEDURE :
1. Remove the key from the battery before charging it for models A2, FB48
and switch off for R36, R36T, RX36, R48, R48+ and R48T.
2. Connect the charger to the battery.
3. Plug the charger to an 110V AC outlet (alternating current).
4. Always disconnect the charger from the 110V AC outlet first then
disconnect the charger from the battery. (Make sure you connect and
disconnect the cables in the correct sequence as explained above).
A full charge may require 8 hours without interruption.
CAN THE BATTERY BE CHARGED
AT ANY TIME OR IS IT BETTER TO WAIT
UNTIL IT IS COMPLETELY DISCHARGED ?
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. Nevertheless, it is
essential to never leave the battery connected to the charger for more than
24 hours.
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 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.
WHAT SHOULD BE DONE IN WINTER TO
MAINTAIN THE BATTERY IN GOOD CONDITION?
During the long periods when you will not be using your Velec, store the
battery inside your house after charging it completely for 8 hours; afte-
rward, you must charge your battery during one hour each month or for
two hours every two months.
Always use the Lithium charger supplied by Velec with a Velec Lithium bat-
tery, otherwise your charger and your battery might be damaged.
