The Temperature Of The Lithium Ion Battery (Esb1) During Charging - decon E-Drive PLUS User Manual

9.5. The Temperature of the Lithium Ion Battery
(ESB1) during Charging
Charge the battery in an environment with a tempera-
ture of 10 to 25°C.
• To protect the battery, if the internal temperature
of the battery is under 0°C or over 40°C, charging
does not start. Instead, it enters a standby mode.
During this time, the charge lamp (green) flashes.
While in standby mode, when the battery reaches an appropriate temperature, the charge lamp
(green) will change from a flashing to an "on" state, and charging will start automatically. (The
length of the standby time varies with the conditions.)
• The battery temperature increases during charging. However, if the battery temperature rises
above 45°C, the power for the charger will turn off to protect the battery.
Since charging has not ended, it is necessary to charge again after the battery temperature
9
has decreased.
Charging a battery immediately after travel, or charging a new battery is likely to cause its
temperature to increase, which increases the likelihood of the charger stopping charging
before completion.
