3 IMPORTANT NOTES
3.7
A rechargeable lithium-ion battery
cle. The 12 V battery is located at the rear, under the seat. The fuse box
The KTM PowerPack is located under the seat and is bolted to the electric motor. The KTM PowerPack can be
removed with just a few simple steps.
The KTM PowerPack can be charged in the vehicle or following removal from the vehicle.
Check the KTM PowerPack for damage to the housing or the plug every time it is removed and installed.
The 12 V battery is required for vehicle operation. The vehicle control unit requires the 12 V battery to start the
system. If the 12 V battery is defective, discharged or not connected, the vehicle will not start.
3.8
When using the KTM PowerPack for the first time, the vehicle must be ridden until the KTM PowerPack is fully
discharged. The vehicle will initially reduce its output power. When operating in power-reduced mode, the vehicle
can still be driven for a few more minutes before the vehicle switches off with blink code 11.
Then charge the KTM PowerPack until the battery charger completes the process at 100%. The charge level indi-
cator on the battery charger shows the progress made.
This charging process generally takes approximately 135 minutes, but may take up to four hours. Do not skip this
procedure as it has a significant influence on the performance of the KTM PowerPack.
3.9
To spare the KTM PowerPack, the motor control reduces the power at low temperatures.
When the temperature of the KTM PowerPack falls below 9 °C, the motor control reduces power to 80%. 50% of
power is available at temperatures below 0 °C. In both cases, the active driving mode display flashes slowly. The
vehicle can be operated without problems. The KTM PowerPack is not damaged by the power reduction.
The KTM PowerPack warms up when the vehicle is operating. When the temperature of the KTM PowerPack rises
above 0 °C, 80% of power is available once the vehicle has been started again. When the temperature of the
KTM PowerPack rises above 8 °C, full power is available once the vehicle has been started again.
