Temperatures over 60 °C can also cause liquid to
leak from the battery and the battery will become
damaged. Batteries may self-ignite and explode.
Protect batteries against heat.
Never store in proximity to hot or flammable
objects.
Never expose batteries to continuous direct
sunlight and never store near heaters.

lying flat.
If the shipping box with a pedelec is lying flat or
standing on one end, it does not provide the frame
and wheels with adequate protection against
damage.
Store the pedelec in an upright position only.
If the pedelec features a hydraulic seat post, fix
only the lower seat post or the frame into a fitting
stand to prevent damage to the upper seat post
and the seat post lever.
Never place a pedelec with a hydraulic seat post
upside down on the floor; otherwise you, will
damage the seat post lever.
Store the pedelec, battery and charger in a dry,
clean location.
