How to Take Care of The Battery

  • Check the charger, charger cables, and battery for damage before each charge.
  • The battery will be locked if the keys are lost and you will not be able to use them, make sure you always have a copy of the key since Rattan does not have any copy of the keys.
  • Always charge in a safe area that is cool, dry, indoors, away from direct sunlight, dirt, or debris, in a clear area away from the potential to trip on the charging cords, or for damage to occur to the bike, battery, or charging equipment while parked and/or charging. Always charge your battery in temperatures between 50°F~77°F (10°C~25°C).
  • Keep the battery charged once a week even if you are not in use in case any defective issue occurs.
  • The battery can be charged on or off the bike. To remove the battery, turn the key to the off and unlocked position, and remove the key from the key port by pulling directly up without twisting. Keep the battery charged once a week even if you are not in use in case any defect ve issue occurs.
  • The battery should be recharged after each use, so it is ready to go the full range per charge next ride. There is no memory effect, so charging the battery after short rides will not cause damage.
  • Charging the battery normally takes 4-5 hours. In rare cases, it may take longer to allow the battery management system to balance the battery, particularly when the bike is new or after long periods of storage.
  • The charger shows red during charging, and it turns green when the battery is fully charged.
  • Remove the charger from the battery within one hour of the green light indicating a complete charge.

  • Detach the charger within one hour, or as soon as possible, once the green light indicates a complete charge to avoid unnecessary wear of charging components.
  • Never charge a battery for more than 12 hours at a time.
  • Do not leave a charging battery unattended.
