Maintenance And Care; Battery Type And Care; Handling The Battery; Distance And Power - ARMADA SCOOTERS Nemesis Owner's Manual

• Avoid dropping the charger. The battery charger should be regularly examined for damage to the
cord, plug, enclosure and other parts. In the event of such damage, if any is found, the E-Bike
should not be charged until the battery charger has been repaired or replaced.
• During winter or any long-time storage of the electric vehicle, the battery should be recharged
every month to maintain functionality.
• If the charger becomes too hot, the charger lights will flash indicating a malfunction of the charger
or charging circuit. Disconnect charger immediately to prevent any damage. If the lights continue
to blink and there is no more fan noise, the charger will not charge the E-Bike.
• Charge the E-Bike after each use if possible, to condition the battery cycle.

4. MAINTENANCE AND CARE:

4.1 BATTERY TYPE AND CARE: 12v 20AH Lead acid non spill-able batteries; weight 15lbs.
The typical life cycle of these batteries are 1 ½ to 2 years. After approximately 300 charges, a lead-
acid battery will need to be replaced, you will notice that your battery cannot carry as much of a
charge as it could initially. Contact your local ARMADA Scooter shop to purchase a new battery.
Replace battery with an identical or similar battery. When replacing your battery, dispose of it at
a proper battery recycling facility or return to an ARMADA Scooter Shop.
4.2 HANDLING THE BATTERY: The battery contains large amounts of electrical power. You must use
caution and respect when handling it. Not following these instructions can result in serious
injury.
•
DO NOT place your lead acid battery on concrete. Concrete drains the batter's power and will
neutralize the lead-acid. Placing the battery on concrete for any length of time will likely result in
the battery being drained of power and possibly losing its ability to store electricity.
• Always lift the battery with both hands and carry it with care. Never drop the battery. If the case
is damaged, the contents may leak out.
• Never puncture or open the battery case. The contents are dangerous and may cause injury. Do
not touch the contents of a leaking battery.
• Do not touch the two metal poles on the battery box at the same time. This can cause a short-
circuit. It could cause injury
to you or others and can cause serious damage to the
electrical system of the e-bike.
• Do not handle your battery if either you or the battery are wet. Water is an excellent conductor of
electricity. You may experience an electrical shock and serious injury.
4.3 DISTANCE AND POWER: The e-bike can go up to a distance of 35 to 50km before it must be recharged.
The ability of your battery to power your e-bike depends on many variables. These variables include
the weight of the rider and cargo, the prevailing wind resistance, steep hills and inclines, and tire
pressure.
