Battery

Important!Your bike is supplied with two battery lock keys; please keep the spare key safely. We can order you a replacement if you can provide the key number.Please note your key number here

•  If the E-Bike is not in use, remove the battery and store it at a temperature between 0°C and 40°C in a dry environment.
•  Do not store the battery with low capacity for a longer period.
• For storage, the battery should have a capacity of at least 40%.
•  It is recommended to discharge the battery completely and then fully recharge it.

Battery charger

WARNING

•  Use only batteries and chargers from HALFORDS with your bike. The use of other battery packs could cause injury and involve the risk of fire. If you use other battery packs, it will invalidate your warranty
•  The battery must not be exposed to direct sunlight, or charged or stored at high temperatures.
• Avoid contact with metal objects (paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws, or other small metal objects) as these may cause a short- circuit. Short circuits caused in this way will invalidate any warranty claims.
•  Do not open the battery pack. This could cause a short circuit.
• Opening the battery package will invalidate any warranty claims.
•  Do not connect, or disconnect the battery pack/charger with wet hands.
•  Keep the battery/charger out of reach of children and animals.

Charging the battery

The charger LED changes from red to green when the battery is fully charged

WARNING

•  Do not subject the battery or the charger to physical shocks, e.g., by dropping. Rinse in the event of accidental contact with water. If fluid gets in your eyes, seek medical advice. The fluid that leaks from the battery pack may cause skin irritation or burns.
• Do not bend the cable. The cable must not be coiled up while charging.
•  The charger can get warm. Do not wrap or cover the charger or place it on soft floor coverings such as carpets, etc.
• If the battery is not fully charged after six hours, disconnect it immediately from the mains to stop the charging process and contact your place of purchase. This can lead to overheating, bursting, or ignition of the battery.

Note – If you store your e-bike in an unheated shed or garage, low temperatures in winter can affect charging efficiency and the range during discharge.For best charging performance, remove the battery from the bike and bring it indoors to charge. Once charged the electrochemical reactions inside the battery will also be more efficient with the battery at room temperature, so fitting the battery at room temperature will improve the range of the e-bike.

Battery power remaining indication

Press the ‘Power’ button for 2 seconds; the LED will indicate the amount of charge remaining in the battery

Remaining total capacity

Fitting the battery

1.  Push the battery into the end of the frame with the charging port on the left side
2. Turn the key 180°

Removing the battery

Unlock with the key & slide out the battery

Assistance levels and speed

Range

Factors that affect the range

The above figures are based on a speed of 20 km/h on a level road at 15°C–20°C. The range is influenced by many factors:

•  Weight of the rider
•  Weight of the luggage
•  Selection of path
•  Experience and the concentration of the rider
•  State of maintenance of the E-Bike
•  Type, condition, and air pressure in the tires
• Nature of the route
•  Speed, average speed and changes in speed
•  Traffic flow, for example, stop and go
•  Wind direction and wind speed

 

Battery contact protection

When the Cross city-e is folded there are two-bladed battery contacts exposed at the front of the rear section of the main frame tube.

Stored inside the central frame folding catch is a plastic battery contact protector.

When the bike is folded always slide this protector over the two-bladed contacts.This will prevent the contact blades from getting bent by accidental pressure during transport or storage.

Removing the rear wheel (to repair a puncture)

•  Unplug the two parts of the cable connector.You will need to ‘wiggle’ these parts to overcome the grip of the waterproof seal of this connector.
•  Release the two ‘arms’ of the rear V brake by pulling on the rear brake cable ‘noodle’ & releasing it from the ‘cage’ on the top of the arm

•  Remove the rubber caps from both rear-wheel nuts & loosen the nuts (19 mm spanner). You may need to remove the nuts to release the wheel.

  

• Having repaired the puncture, refit the rear wheel. Take care to ensure the motor cable is pointing directly downwards to align the anti-rotation toothed washers on the wheel axle with the dropout slots.
•  Firmly tighten both wheel nuts to 40 +/-5 Nm
•  Push the two parts of the motor cable connector together, making sure that the molded arrows are aligned
•  Replace the rubber wheel nut caps & clip the motor cable back under the chainstay.
•  Reconnect the rear V brake.

Information on Waste Disposal for Consumers of Electrical & Electronic EquipmentThis mark on a product and/or accompanying documents indicates that when it is to be disposed of, it must be treated as Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment (WEEE).Any WEEE marked waste products must not be mixed with general household waste, but kept separate for the treatment, recovery, and recycling of the materials used.For proper treatment, recovery and recycling; please take all WEEE marked waste to your Local Authority Civic waste site, where it will be accepted free of charge.If all consumers dispose of Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment correctly, they will be helping to save valuable resources and preventing any potential negative effects upon human health and the environment, of any hazardous materials that the waste may contain.

Please recycle your spent batteries.

Batteries should not be disposed of in unsorted municipal waste, but separately collected to facilitate the correct treatment and recycling of the substances they contain. The recycling of batteries ensures the recovery of these valuable materials and prevents any potentially harmful effects upon both the environment and human health.Please contribute to battery recycling by segregating all spent batteries and actively participating in their collection and recycling. Various battery collection schemes will be in operation in different areas of the country. However, battery collection bins will be available at retail stores that sell batteries as well as at schools, libraries, and other public buildings.
