• Store the battery pack in a dry, well-ventilated location. Protect the battery pack against
moisture and water.
• Under unfavorable weather conditions, it is recommended e.g. to remove the battery pack from
the bike and store it in an enclosed location until being used again.
• The battery pack can be stored at temperatures between -10°C and +60°C. For a long battery
pack life, however, storing the battery pack at room temperature of approx. 20°C is of advantage.
• Take care that the maximal storage temperature is not exceeded. As an example, do not leave
the battery pack in a vehicle in summer and store it out of direct sunlight.
• It is recommended to not store the battery pack on the bike.
5. Be careful when transporting a RIDE+ bike.
• An E-bike is heavier than a normal bike. If transporting on a vehicle, be aware of the maximum
load capacity of the vehicle's roof, towing hook and/or of the applied bike carrier.
Refer to the manual of the vehicle and bike carrier for details.
• Remove the controller, battery pack and, if present, panniers from the bicycle and store them
elsewhere in the vehicle during the drive.
• Always respect local laws about transportation of a(n electric) bicycle.
• Because Li-Ion battery packs of this size and power are considered 'Dangerous goods, class 9'
when transporting, regulations may restrict the transport of separate Li-Ion batteries in some
places. The restrictions apply to most airlines and some trucking companies. But, if you intend
to ship or travel with your complete RIDE+ bike (with installed battery pack), the regulations
are less strict. Make sure to check ahead with your airline or carrier, before booking your trip, if
it is allowed to travel with your complete RIDE+ bike.
6. Visit your dealer on a regular basis for maintenance of your new bike.
• Your dealer has the right knowledge and equipment to maintain your RIDE+ bike.
• If you have questions about your new RIDE+ bicycle, ask your dealer!
