4.3.1.1 Preparing a break in operation

Remove battery from the pedelec.

Charge battery to around 30%–60%

The pedelec needs to be cleaned with a damp
cloth and preserved with wax spray. Never wax
the friction surfaces of the brake.

Before longer periods without use, it is
recommendable to have your specialist dealer
carry out servicing and basic cleaning and apply
preservative agent.
4.3.1.2 Taking out of operation
 Store the pedelec, battery and charger in a dry,
clean environment. We recommend storing
them in uninhabited rooms with smoke alarms.
Dry locations with an ambient temperature of
about 20 °C are ideal.
 Recharge the display battery for at least 1 hour
every 3 months.
 Check the battery level after 6 months. If only
one LED on the battery level indicator lights up,
recharge the battery to around 30% - 60%.
