Storing The Battery Pack; Safety Instructions And Precautions On How To Transport And Ship The Battery Pack; Important Information About Air Transport - Alber Erivo R10 Gebrauchsanweisung

4.8. Storing the battery pack

• The service life of a battery pack is partly dependent on its storage location. For this reason, do not leave the battery pack or the Erivo
wheels in hot locations for prolonged periods. In particular, use the boot of a car parked in the sun only for transport – never as a stor-
age location.
• Store the battery pack in a cool, dry and well ventilated environment where it is protected against damage and unauthorised access.
• To achieve the optimum battery pack service life, it should be stored at a temperature of between -25 °C and 50 °C, an air pressure of
between 500 and 1060 hPa, and a humidity of between 45 and 85 percent. Under these conditions, the battery pack can be stored for 6
months.
• The battery pack is to be fully charged prior to storage.
• If the battery pack is stored for longer than 6 months, it also needs to be fully charged every 6 months.
• Do not expose the battery pack to moisture of any kind during storage (water, rainwater, snow, etc.).
• Prior to storage, charge the battery pack and check its charge status every month. If necessary, charge the battery pack if the charge
status drops to below 50 percent.

4.9. Safety instructions and precautions on how to transport and ship the battery pack

• Lithium-ion cells are used in the Erivo battery pack. Transport and shipping of the battery pack are, therefore, subject to all applicable
statutory requirements, which must be strictly observed. For example, a defective battery pack is generally not allowed to be transpor-
ted on planes, neither as hand luggage nor as checked luggage.
• If your battery pack is defective, take it personally to your specialist dealer as shipping lithium-ion batteries by post or other carriers is
subject to strict rules and regulations. Once again, we recommend that you contact your specialist dealer in advance.
• As transport regulations may change annually, we strongly recommend that you consult your travel operator, airline or shipping line
before you set out on your trip in order to learn about the current applicable regulations.
i
If you require a packaging box for transport purposes that complies with the statutory provisions,
you can request this from your specialist dealer.
Discuss the necessary measures with your specialist dealer before sending the battery pack.

4.10. Important information about air transport

The technical design of the Erivo, and specifically the lithium-ion battery contained therein, complies with the applicable standards, dir-
ectives, and laws. It meets the requirements of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) for air transport. We confirm this annu-
ally in the form of our transport certificate. This is prepared on the basis of the new IATA Dangerous Goods Regulations, which are not
usually published until mid-December of each year. The current certificate is available for download on the Alber homepage: (https://
www.alber.de/de/hilfe-service/alber-service/reisen-mit-alber-produkten/). We would be happy to send it to you on request.
However, when planning a trip, please contact your travel agent or the airlines to discuss taking the Erivo with you on any flight you
may book. At the end of the day, the decision to allow or refuse the Erivo on board is made at the pilot's discretion. Neither Alber GmbH
nor their specialist dealers are able to influence the pilot's decision.
When travelling, please also note the applicable regulations for transporting lithium-ion batteries in the countries you
are visiting.
