    Handling and Charging the Battery WARNING BionX batteries shall only be recharged with BionX chargers or BionX power supplies. Never short circuit the battery by connecting the contacts of the battery. Never open the battery. This could damage the battery and possibly lead to overheating or ignition of the battery.
  • Page 79 Extreme temperatures will affect battery life, especially during charging. Avoid charging in direct sunlight or in very hot or cold temperatures. This will reduce the life of the battery considerably. We recommend charging the battery at temperatures around 20 °C (room temperature). The battery should be warmed to room temperature before it is charged, particularly when it was exposed to cold temperatures during a ride.

  • Page 85: Maintenance And Care

    Installing the rear wheel • Guide the rear wheel axle into the two dropouts and make sure that the brake disc (on models with disc brakes) is inserted between the brake pads • Also make sure that the flat area at the left of the rear axle (torque reaction collar) is aligned so that it fits into the left dropout • Install the rear wheel with both sides of the axle inserted all the way in the dropouts • Tighten the axle nuts on the rear wheel with 40Nm/ 30lb-ft (= VERY TIGHT!).

  • Page 86: Cleaning

    Cleaning CAUTION Never use a high pressure washer or a garden hose to clean the propulsion system. The force of a water jet could damage the electrical components of the propulsion system. We recommend a soft sponge or a soft brush to clean the bicycle. Use a moist rag to clean the battery’s docking station.
