5. BATTERY AND CHARGER
5.1 Mounting and dismounting of the battery
Turn the battery key (ON/OFF) to open position and take the battery out of the rack.
Mount the battery again by placing it in the rack and pushing it forward into position. Then turn the key to lock the battery.
13
5.2 Mounting of battery charger
Insert the plug of the battery charger into the battery. You may charge the battery while mounted in the e-bike.
You may also choose to dismantle the battery and take it indoor for recharging
5.3 Use of battery charger
1. Charging must take place indoors or under a pent roof, since the charger is not waterproof.
2. Turn the key to off position.
3. Put the plug of the charger into the socket of the battery.
4. Put the mains plug (230v) into the power socket and switch on the charger.
5. The red diode will be on, as long as charging takes place.
6. When the diode changes from red to green, charging is complete and the e-bike is ready.
7. Turn off the charger but do not remove it from the socket until you are going to use the e-bike again.
5.4 Charging
The MONTY Electric e-bike uses maintenance-free Panasonic
Li-ION batteries. Please note, that the battery can be dismantled.
The charging capacity of the battery is only 40% when delivered from the factory. Before commissioning it is therefore necessary to charge the battery to full capacity using the enclosed battery charger (Green diode is on).
14
In order to achieve maximum battery life and range of the ebike we recommend that charging takes place in a heated room. By temperatures below 20ºC prolonged charging time must be expected, with the result that charging of the battery to full capacity cannot take place which again leads to reduced driving range.
Please note that the capacity of the battery will decrease when temperatures fall below 20ºC. Optimum battery charging conditions are at 20ºC. If the battery is exposed to direct sunlight the battery life deteriorates considerably.
When the battery is taken indoors for charging, condensation may occur inside the battery as well as on the outside. Please therefore do not start charging until the condensation has disappeared. The battery contains a printed circuit board that controls each battery cell. If charging takes place while there is still some condensation in the battery this printed circuit board may be damaged.
Memory effect does not occur in Li-ION batteries. It is thus unnecessary to discharge the battery before starting a recharge.
Charging of the Li-ION battery at many frequent intervals may prolong the battery life. However, please note that once charging of the battery has been started you should not discontinue the process as this may have a negative influence on the battery life.
Rechargeable batteries must always be kept in dry conditions and dismantled from any equipment.
Do not pull the wires when dismounting the charger from the battery. Grab hold of the plug and pull it carefully out of the battery.
Never leave the battery in the charger when the charger is off.
Never leave your battery in your Monty Electric e-bike for a longer period of time. Please note that the capacity of the battery will weaken over time and at lower temperatures. The more you use your e-bike the more the capacity will decrease thereby affecting the range. Over time the reduced battery performance will also be noticeable when driving in a hilly countryside. The battery life will normally allow charging/discharging up to 600 times.
Please also note that periods with low temperatures will influence the capacity and thus the performance of the battery nega-
15
tively. This will change when the temperature increases to approx.
20ºC.
Other parameters of major importance for the performance/ range are user weight, driving manners, terrain, surface and tire pressure. The user himself/herself may also influence the performance/range depending on how much pedal power is used.
Charging to full capacity should take place once a month (full charge = green diode on charger is on).
5.5 Storage for the winter
If you put away your e-bike for a longer period (more than one month), it will be sufficient to charge the battery once a month.
Before putting the battery away for storage you should make sure that it is fully charged, as the battery will be damaged by being left totally or partly discharged for a longer period.
5.6 Warning
Do not heats, short, puncture or in any other way damage the battery.
Do not divide or destroy the battery.
Do not throw the battery into open fire.
Do not lower the battery into water or any other liquid.
When charging the battery only use the enclosed battery charger.
Do not charge the battery at temperature below 0ºC or above
45ºC.
Do not cover the battery charger.
Disposal of used batteries must take place to companies with environmental approval or to public recycling centers.
5.7 Disposal of battery
According to the European Union's WEEE Directive 2002/96/
EC on Waste of Electronic and Electrical Equipment special rules apply for disposal of batteries.
16
This symbol indicates that when the end-user wishes to discard battery products, it must be sent to separate collection facilities for recovery and recycling. By separating this product from other household-type waste, the volume of waste sent to incinerators or land-fills will be reduced and natural resources will thus be conserved.
Please contact your dealer in case you have any questions.
8. DRIVING INSTRUCTIONS
The auxiliary engine works as follows:
When the pedals are activated a sensor sends a signal to the electronic controller which then starts the motor.
The power of the auxiliary engine is adjusted according to the chosen assist level. During the ride you may adjust the assist level according to actual need.
If you drive uphill you may apply full power whereas when you go downhill you may disconnect the motor.
The electronic controller will automatically disconnect the motor when you stop pedaling. Likewise the controller will disconnect the motor when your speed exceeds 24.6 km/h.
