6.6 Charging time guidelines
Although charging time varies depending on residual battery cap city
and external temperature, if the battery has been exhausted, it generally
takes approximately 4 hours until one battery capacity indicator lamp
flashes.
If the battery pack enters standby mode while charging, charging time
will increase by an equal amount.
* If charging after a long period of disuse, the charging time will be lengthened depending on the battery status.
However, note that if the battery capacity indicator lamps do not flash in fault pattern, there is no malfunction.
You can check the estimate of how much capacity is left in the battery and to what extent it is charged.
The check can be performed using either the display unit's residual battery capacity indicator or the battery's
residual battery capacity indicator lamps.
TIP
• Even if the battery's capacity reaches 0 (zero), you can still ride the bicycle as a regular bicycle.
• If you are using an old battery pack, the residual battery capacity indicator may suddenly display very little
power when you start moving. This is not a malfunction. Once riding stabilizes and the load is reduced,
the proper value is displayed.

7. CHECKING THE RESIDUAL BATTERY CAPACITY
7.1 Residual battery capacity indicator display and estimate of residual battery capacity for display unit
The residual battery capacity can be displayed as a numeral value on the LCD display by using the function
select switch on the display unit to select this option.

Applicable situation
When you turn on the power of the LCD
display and ride continually after the
battery is fully charged, the segments for
the residual battery capacity indicator go
out one by one each time the residual
battery capacity is reduced by 10%.
There is very little residual battery capacity
left. Please charge the battery soon.
There is no more residual battery capacity.
Turn off the power, and charge the battery
pack soon. Assist is stopped, but you can
still ride the bicycle as a regular bicycle.
You can still use the light for about another
2 hours.
