Battery Storage; Assembly And Adjustment - Apache Tuwan MX1 User Manual

BATTERY STORAGE

Store the battery at a dry and well-ventilated
place, out of reach of direct sunlight and other
heat sources at temperatures from -10 to 40°C
(optimally 15-20°C).
If the battery is stored in cold environment, it
is necessary to warm it to optimal operation
temperature (20°C) before re-activation. Never
leave the battery completely flat. That could
lead to permanent damage. In case of battery
going completely flat, recharge it to half of the
capacity and let it cool down. When the battery
cools down, recharge it to full capacity.
ADVICE
Li-ion batteries are fully recyclable. After the end of the lifespan of the battery you can hand it
over at any collection point or at your seller.

ASSEMBLY AND ADJUSTMENT

Assembly and disassembly of a bike with hub
motor. There might be situations in the future,
when you will have to disassemble a bike with
a hub motor because of transport or servicing.
First, disconnect the connector of the motor
that can be found circa 20 cm from the entry
of the motor. Then loosen the brake shoe (if it's
used), change to the smallest sprocket (rear
motors), loosen the nut of the motor with a flat
wrench no. 18 and take the wheel out of its base.
Proceed in reverse order during reassembly.
L When assembling the wheel with a hub
motor, pay attention to proper position
of the middle axle. Cable must go into the
motor from the bottom. Otherwise water could
get into the motor and damage it.
During long-term storage (i.e. in winter)
keep the battery charged to ca. 60-80 %
of its capacity. Do not store it permanently
connected to charger nor placed on the bike.
Lithium batteries slowly discharge (ca. 5-10 %
per month) when inactive.
Therefore, you should regularly check the
battery and in case of decrease of its capacity
recharge it to recommended level of 60-80 %.
