The charging
You can charge your new battery as usual with the original charger, which was
included in the scope of delivery when you purchased the pedelec.
When using the E-Bike Vision charger in combination with the optionally available
charging adapter or when using the original charger, you can charge your battery in the
Pedelec or outside the Pedelec.
Requirements for charging in the pedelec
Open the cap of the charging socket, which is located on the bike frame or near the battery.
It is irrelevant whether the drive system is switched on.
Requirements for charging outside of the pedelec
You can start charging outside the pedelec by switching off the drive system. Please wait
until all the LEDs on the battery have gone out. Now you can remove the battery as usual by
unlocking the lock and z. B. in your apartment or garage in your presence.
Start the charging process with the original charger
1. Connect the charger to the electrical network.
2. Make sure that none of the battery LEDs light up if it is not installed in the pedelec.
3. If necessary, wake the battery from deep sleep by pressing the button on the
battery.
4. Now insert the charger plug into the battery.
5. The charging process starts and the LED of the battery, which corresponds to the current
state of charge, starts to flash.
6. If the charging process does not start immediately, press the capacity button on the
battery to check and wait until the capacity indicator lights up.
7. Only in conjunction with an optionally available 7A charger: If the battery is almost
fully charged (3 LEDs light up and the 4th flashes), the charger fan may not start
because the charger immediately switches to the so-called constant voltage phase .
Here the power consumption of the charger is very low and it is not necessary to run
the fan.
The fan will also switch off towards the end of the charging process, as this is no
longer required in the constant voltage charging phase.

Battery usage
Your power pack automatically goes into so-called deep sleep mode after approx. 14
days to keep self-discharge as low as possible. Before the next use (charging or using
the pedelec), the battery must be awakened from deep sleep by pressing the button on
the battery. Waking up is symbolized by turning on the LEDs in sequence.
The drive system is also switched off (by the battery) after approx. 5 minutes if the
Pedelec is not used. It is irrelevant whether the light of your pedelec is activated or
not!
When inserting the battery, make sure that it is correctly positioned before you snap it
into the lock. Otherwise the battery case may be damaged!
Do not press the capacity button several times in quick succession, otherwise you will
immediately activate and deactivate the battery again.
Have you correctly installed your new E-Bike Vision Power Pack in your pedelec and locked
it with the lock (don't forget to remove the key!)? Then switch on the drive system using the
on / off switch on your display. The drive system now reads the current capacity from the
battery and your motor will calculate the approximate remaining range based on your
previous driving profile. The battery has no influence on the range calculation of the drive
system.
Do not remove the battery from the pedelec while the drive system is activated. Switch
this off beforehand!

Light support
Your new Power Pack has the latest and safest battery management system technology to
protect you and yourself from incorrect operation. Before the cells of the battery are deeply
discharged, the battery switches off the motor of your drive system. However, there is
enough energy left in the battery to safely drive home with the lighting switched on if you
operate the lighting via the drive battery. Electrical circuits that are operated via the drive
battery also continue to work.

Maintenance
The life span of your Power Pack depends mainly of your carefully usage.
Never use the complete capacity, but use it regular and store it at 17° C. That way, your
battery will thank you will longer life span.
With increasing aging your battery will loose capacity, anyway.
Do not try to refresh or exchange the cells on your own!
Get in contact with our service department. They can also rate and exchange single
components after the warranty time.
An essential shorte usage time after fully charged the battery indicates that the battery is
dissipated, however. Replace it!
Troubleshooting
If your drive system can not be activated, please check the contacts of the discharge plug to
make sure that they are clean, straight and undamaged and that there is a safe contact
between battery and connector box.

If charging does not start, please check the polarity of the charge plug.
Please test the battery by pushing the capacity indicator button.
Is the power cord of the charger connected properly and performs the wallet socket?
Is the green LED of the charger flashing? If this is flashing red, there can be a short circuit.
Charger and battery must be returned to the E-Bike Vision service center.
If the battery is damaged, defective or exits any liquids or smell? Please do not use your
Power Pack further and contact your dealer or our service center.
Recycling
Do not dispose lithium batteries in the household waste!
Return defective or used batteries to the battery dealers or to the municipal waste
collection centers. Turn back the battery in discharged state. Also prevent short-
circuits by covering the terminals.
With the proper disposal of your battery, you make an important contribution to protect our
environment.
