7.1.1 Learning cycle
Once you have lly charged the battery for the rst
time, you must run it down until the system switches
o. Repeat this process roughly every six months. This
procedure (a so-called “learning cycle”) is necessary
so that the battery management recognises the chang-
es in the capacity caused by age and wear and tear, in
other words, the performance level of the battery. This
is the only way to enable adjustments to your remain-
ing range indicator.
Aerwards, the capacity of the battery is calculated
anew and correctly represented.
With this procedure, you can prevent a sudden loss of
electrical assistance during an extended trip.

• You can simply leave the battery connected to the

• The battery management monitors the temperature
of your battery and warns you of incorrect use.
