1.5. Servicing
Servicing and replacement may only be performed by approved Service
Partners. Please remember that our components may contain cells that can
be damaged, or a short circuit may occur from drilling into the external case,
which could result in a fire.
NOTICE
The battery's capacity will decrease over time. During normal use for 2
years or after 500 full charging cycles, the battery's capacity may lower
to a minimum of 70% of its initial value. To obtain 100% capacity again,
the battery must be replaced. Waterproofness and integrity of the battery
cannot be guaranteed once the battery has been opened.
1.6. Recycling
It is our responsibility to ensure the correct recycling of the External Battery
eX1. Together, we are responsible for minimising the CO2 footprint and
environmental impact. Please ensure the battery is properly recycled when
it reaches the end of its lifespan. Get in touch with your dealer or eBike
manufacturer to find out about the correct recycling process. If the battery
needs to be replaced, please bear in mind that only approved Service
Partners are allowed to replace the internal battery. They can also handle the
recycling of your old battery.
According to European Guideline 2012/19/EU, electrical devices/tools that
