Charging and maintenance tips for the battery
Every battery discharges automatically over time. This process is called self-
discharge. A battery that is empty and not charged, will self-discharge and
will be deep discharged. The battery can be permanently damaged during
this process. In case of deep discharge, the warranty will be void.
Please note that any battery will wear over time. The wearing process of the
battery is inevitable and depends on several factors, such as usage, number
of charge cycles and the ambient temperature. Even if the battery is not
used, its capacity will decrease. A worn battery can still be used, but please
bear in mind that its charge level may decrease.
Beware:
Never leave the bike with an empty battery! We advise you charge the battery as
soon as possible before it's totally empty.
The best storage-charge of the battery is when three to five LED lights burn.
Check the battery every month in the winter. If fewer than three LED lights burn,
recharge the battery.
Preferably store and use the battery in environments of 5 to 20 degrees. Avoid
higher or lower temperatures.
Do not charge the battery in sunlight and make sure that the battery is not
charged at a temperature of less than 5 degrees.
Only use the charger indoors and in non-humid environments, the charger may
not get wet.
Only use the Van Raam supplied battery.
Only charge the battery with the supplied charger!
The battery housing ánd charger housing may never be opened! When there is a
problem, contact your dealer.
Don't drop the battery, this can cause external and internal damage.
If your bicycle has a fault, the battery should be disconnected for the bicycle.
Problem solving

1.
Make sure that the battery is properly attached.
2.

shut itself down. The battery can be reactivated by recharging it briefly,
pushing and holding down the on/off button while cycling (less than 10km/h),
or on certain batteries by pushing the indicator button on the battery until the
indicator appears.
4.
If the above action does not help, contact your dealer.
