WARNING
They can explode, causing serious burns and fire. High temperatures
can also shorten the service live of your battery. Always ensure there
is sufficient ventilation when charging the battery.
Batteries may not be submersed in water. This presents a risk of
explosion. Do not extinguish a burning battery with water - only its
immediate surroundings. Fire extinguishers with metal fire powder
(Class D) are more suitable. If the battery can be taken outside safely,
smother the fire with sand.
Batteries may not be short-circuited. A short-circuit between the
contacts can cause burns and fire. Keep the battery away from nuts,
bolts, paper clips, keys, coins, nails and other small metal objects
which can cause bridging of the contacts.
Batteries may not be destroyed, shredded, taken apart, opened or
repaired. They can explode, causing serious burns and fire. Contact
your cycle dealer for help if you have problems with the battery.
Damaged batteries may not be charged, used or transported.
» They can explode, causing serious burns and fire.
» Vapour can escape and irritate the air ways. Ensure there is a
supply of fresh air and consult a doctor in the event of discomfort.
WARNING
» Liquid can escape and cause skin irritation. Prevent contact with
it. In the event of accidental contact, wash off the liquid with
water. If liquid enters the eyes, also seek medical assistance.
A battery can still be damaged after a drop or impact even if no
external damage is evident. Battery which looks fine on the outside
should therefore also be subjected to an inspection. Contact your
cycle dealer.
PLEASE NOTE
Batteries may not be subjected to any mechanical impacts. This poses
a risk of damage.
Perform a learn cycle. You should drain a new, fully charged
battery once until the assist function stops, and without
recharging it in-between. By doing so, the battery "learns"
its capacity, and the actual capacity matches the charge
level display. Please perform a learn cycle every six months
or 5,000 kilometres. When the battery becomes older and
you do not repeat the cycle from time to time, the difference
between actual battery capacity and charge level display
will become greater and greater.
