Info
The charging procedure is identical regardless of where the KTM PowerPack is charged – while
installed in the vehicle or outside of the vehicle. However, the 12 V battery is only recharged when the
KTM PowerPack is being recharged in the vehicle.
Recharge the KTM PowerPack regularly while it is inside the vehicle to also charge the 12 V battery.
Do not activate the vehicle while the battery charger is connected to the KTM PowerPack.
If the vehicle is activated while the vehicle is being charged with the KTM PowerPack installed, the vehi-
cle switches to the fault state. The KTM PowerPack will continue to be recharged, however the 12 V bat-
tery will stop recharging.
Info
When the left LED in the charge level indicator on the battery charger flashes, then the KTM PowerPack is
ready for use. However, full capacity is not yet available.
To guarantee the maximum capacity of the KTM PowerPack, discharge the KTM PowerPack completely
every 20 charging cycles and then recharge it completely. If this process is not carried out, then the vehi-
cle may switch off due to a charging level which is too low without reducing power beforehand.
The KTM PowerPack is completely discharged when the vehicle switches off with blink code 11.
Info
When the temperature of the KTM PowerPack exceeds the permitted value during charging, the battery
charger will stop the charging process. All LEDs and the LEDS for the current charging level alternately
light up every second.
As soon the temperature of the KTM PowerPack returns to the permitted range, the charging process con-
tinues automatically.
