5.1 Charging the battery
If you only want to go for a quick test run, you do not need
to charge the battery. You should definitely charge it before
the first long trip  8.3.1 Charging the battery P. EN-75,
because for technical reasons, the battery is supplied only
partially charged (approximately 50%).
IMPORTANT
Perform a 'learning cycle': You should completely run down a new,
fully charged battery once until the drive assistance stops and
without recharging it in between. In that way the battery 'learns' its
capacity, and the actual capacity will agree with the level indicated
on the battery status display. Please perform a learn cycle every six
months or 5,000 kilometres. If you do not repeat this from time to
time, the actual capacity of the battery will increasingly diverge from
the value on the battery status display. Important: As soon as the
battery switches to sleep mode the learning cycle is interrupted.
