To maximise battery life, recharge as soon as possible after
every use.
Avoid leaving the battery charger plugged into your battery for
more than 12 hours at a time. Once the battery is fully charged,
unplug the charger from the wall outlet then carefully unplug the
charger from the battery pack.
Avoid charging the battery at a temperature lower than 0°C or
over 40°C. If possible charge the battery at room temperature.
You may recharge the battery at any time, regardless of its
state-of-charge. As your battery ages, it will gradually lose capacity.
With proper care and maintenance, your battery will retain up to
80% of its capacity over at least 500 discharge/recharge cycles. As
capacity diminishes, you will notice a gradual drop-off in maximum
range capability. When range falls to an unacceptable level, contact
your A2B dealer for a replacement battery.
Low battery charge
The motor controller and battery management system (BMS) are
designed to turn off the power to the motor when the voltage of
the battery drops to a predetermined point. This is to protect the
battery from the harmful effects of over-discharge.
When the power turns off due to a low battery, plug the battery
into the charger supplied with your A2B to recharge the battery
within 3 days. It will take 4 - 5 hours to fully recharge a completely
discharged battery. If you have any questions about this battery or
its usage, contact your A2B dealer.
Never attempt to use remaining power once the BMS has
switched off the battery. You will damage your battery.
