WARNINGS ON THE USE OF
THE ELECTRICAL ASSIST
SYSTEM
ALWAYS FOLLOW THE RECOMMENDATIONS FOR
USE OF THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS AND THE
BATTERIES
See the section "Relevant information about Orbea bat-
teries" for more useful information about the use, care of
and problem solving for the internal battery and Range
Extender.
Do not use third-party systems (not Shimano or Orbea) to
modify or delimit the assistance parameters of the electrical
system. Doing so can damage the bicycle's components
(mechanical and electrical assistance system) and cause
accidents, even death. It can also create a fire risk. Modifi-
cations not authorised or covered in the manufacturer's
documentation may void the guarantee coverage for all
components.
•
Do not wash your bike with high pressure water or soak
the bike or the electrical components. All the electrical
components are protected against splashes and rain.
Nevertheless, the use of high pressure water can damage
components and cause short circuits.
•
Avoid using your bicycle in very bad weather. All the elec-
trical components are protected against splashes and rain.
However, very bad weather can damage the components.
•
Avoid transporting your bicycle on the outside of your ve-
hicle in the rain. All the electrical components are pro-
tected against splashes and rain. However, the speeds
reached by your vehicle can worsen the effects of the rain
on the electrical components.
If you are going to transport the bicycle outside your ve-
hicle, remove the bicycle's Range Extender and check that
the charging port cover is properly closed.
•
Do not leave your bicycle or battery exposed to high tem-
peratures for long periods of time. The high temperatures
reached could damage the electrical components. Tem-
peratures above 70ºC can cause leaks and a fire hazard.
•
Obey the temperature ranges for operation (discharge),
charging and storing the battery (internal battery) and the
Range Extender. Using, charging or storing batteries out-
side these temperature ranges can affect the cells and re-
duce their useful life and range.
•
The following temperature chart shows the upper limits
for using, charging, and storage provided by the cell
manufacturer.
In general, using, charging and storing batteries in
temperatures below 0ºC will reduce the range per
charge and doing so continuously can affect the useful
life of the battery.

Storage
•
Avoid storing your bicycle (internal battery) or Range Ex-
tender for long periods of time without checking the
charge level of the batteries.
If you plan to store the battery for a long time, charge the
battery to about 50% of its capacity before storing it and
check the charge level every 3 months (re-charge it to
50%). Never let the charge level drop below 10% in order
to avoid damage to the cells.
USE OF THE BATTERY BELOW 10% CHARGE: Avoid fully
discharging the battery by continuous use below 10%
charge. Charge levels below 10% can affect cell longevity
and charge balancing.
•
Avoid leaving the charger continuously connected to the
battery for long periods of time and monitor the charging
of the battery so that you can disconnect the charger if
you detect any anomaly such as smoke, a burning smell or
fire.
The RS smart charger is designed to stop the charging
process when the battery is completely charged. This pre-
vents damage to the cells and means you can charge the
battery worry-free. However, it is always advisable to
supervise the charging process to prevent damage if the
charger does not operate properly.
•
Avoid impacts and falls of the internal battery and the
Range Extender.
If after a crash or impact the external case of the battery
appears damaged, do not charge or use the battery and
contact an authorised dealer for diagnosis.
•
Always connect the cables the right way round. Connect-
ing the cables without making sure they are the right way
round can damage the terminals.
•
Before each use, check that the charging port is properly
closed to prevent dirt and water from entering the charg-
ing port.
Do not use metal tools to clean the charging port of any
dirt or foreign body.
Do not damage the charging port terminals during this
process.
