Battery information system

There is a display panel on the outer face of the battery
which includes five LEDs and a button with an LED. The
LEDs light up if you press the button. Information about
the battery and its charge state is provided based on the
number of LEDs that light up and the way in which they
light up.
Battery charge state

* All five LEDs flash quickly: The battery is empty and is
being switched off, is overloaded or is going through the
start mode.
• If the battery is empty, it will work once again
briefly following a short period of rejuvenation and
will then switch back off. It must now be recharged
• If the battery is overloaded, it will switch back
on after a short idle period and can then be used
normally.
** The first LED flashes quickly: A charging fault is pre-
sent.
• In that case, please remove the mains plug from
the socket and then plug it in again after a short
time. The charger performs a readjustment. In most
cases, this rectifies the fault.
• If the LED continues to flash, overheating or under-
cooling of the battery may also be the cause. If, for
example, you charge the battery in a cold environ-
ment at a temperature below 0°C, or the battery
heats up to over 60°C during a long ascent, the
management switches off to protect the battery. In
such cases, the battery must be taken to a warmer
environment or cool down.
• If the LED still flashes, take the battery to your
specialist cycle shop and have it checked.

7.4.2 Checking the battery capacity

When you press the button with the LED for approx. three
seconds, the LEDs indicate the charge state first, and then,
after a short pause, the current capacity of the battery. If
the LED in the largest panel lights up, then the battery has
a capacity of over 60%. If the capacity is below 60%, this
is indicated via the smallest LED. Only one of the two LEDs
can light up at any one time.
The range of the battery is less in winter due to the
lower temperatures. Only move the battery (from the
warm room where you store it) and fit it on your Pe-
delec just before you set off. This will help to prevent
the effect of the low temperature on the range of the
battery (➠ Chapter 7.5.1 "Service life and warranty
of the battery").
