use, dropping, or sudden jolts can
damage the charger and its
internal electronics.

Charging the battery

It is important that you charge
your battery after every use. This
will extend the total life of your
battery.
Because specifications of the
charger may change in the process
of production, please read the
charger manual in detail before
use.
WARNING
DO NOT use chargers or other
components on your e-bike other
than the ones which have been
approved and tested by this
company.
How to charge
To charge, turn the bike off
and insert the plug of the charger
into the charging socket of the
battery. Once this is complete,
insert the charger into the
electrical outlet. The standard
120V wall outlet in most homes is
sufficient power to charge the
battery.
The light on the battery will
appear RED to show that is not
full. A full recharge typically takes 4
– 5 hours. When the battery is full,
the light will change from red to
GREEN. You can continue to
charge for 1 – 2 more hours after it
turns green.
Unplug the power source from
the battery and then from the
electrical outlet. Store the charger
in a cool, dry place.
NOTE: After the light turns green,
the charger is in "trickle charge."
This means that if plugged in, it will
continue to charge slowly and
maintain the charge. Doing this will
not harm the battery. For safety
and long battery life, unplug the
battery if you are going to be gone
for an extended period of time.
Do not leave the charger plugged
into the battery for more than 10
hours to avoid overcharging and
potential damage to the battery.
Using your power source
incorrectly or leaving the charger
connected to the battery and an
outlet for extended periods of
time may result in a fire.
When charging, the charger
will become warmer. Be sure to
keep the charger away from any
flammable objects. On a normal
charge cycle, the charger may
reach temperatures up to 185°F
(85°C).
