Make sure that the electrically power assisted cycle is switched off and the battery is switched off/disabled (if required by the
model of battery supplied with the bike).
Make sure that the battery charger, its jack and the charging port of the battery are dry.
Connect the battery charger jack to the battery charging port and then, the mains power socket (230V/50Hz).
There is a red indicator light when the battery is charging. When the indicator light turns green, it signals that the battery
charging cycle has been completed.
Disconnect the battery charger jack from the battery charging port and then, the mains power socket.
CAUTION
Using a battery charger that differs from the one supplied, which is not suitable or approved, to charge the e-bike battery may
damage it or involve other potential risks.
Never leave the e-bike unsupervised while it is charging.
Do not switch on or ride the e-bike during charging.
Keep out of the reach of children during charging. Do not place anything on top of the battery charger during use; do not
allow any liquid or metal to get inside the battery charger.
The battery charger heats up during the battery charging cycle.
Do not charge the battery immediately after use. Allow the battery to cool down before charging it.
The item should not be charging for extended periods. Overcharging reduces battery life and poses additional potential
hazards.
Do not allow the battery to completely discharge to avoid damaging it and causing it to lose efficiency.
Damage caused by the battery being left uncharged for a long period is irreversible and is not covered by the limited
warranty. Once the damage has occurred, the battery cannot be recharged (the battery must not be dismantled by unqualified
personnel, as this could lead to electric shocks, short circuits or even major safety incidents).
Charge the battery at regular intervals (at least once every 3-4 weeks), even if the electrically power assisted cycle has not
been used for an extended period.
Charge the battery in a dry environment, away from flammable materials (e.g. materials that may burst into flame), preferably
at an indoor temperature of 15-25°C, but never below 0°C or above + 45°C.
Carry out regular visual inspection of the charger and charger cables. Do not use the battery charger if it is damaged.
Autonomy and battery duration
The autonomy of the battery supplied with the electrically power assisted cycle and, therefore, the relevant distance data
estimated in km, may vary significantly depending on the specific mode of use (total load transported, how hard the rider
pedals the bike, level of electric pedal assistance detected, how often the rider departs and restarts), the mechanical and
electrical conditions of the product (tyre pressure and wear, battery efficiency level) and external influences (slopes and road
surface, atmospheric conditions).
The capacity and performance of the battery will decrease over time due to the electrochemical deterioration of the battery
cells.
