FIT_Manual_Battery_charger_Charger_36V_V3_en.pdf | Version 03 | 06.06.2025 4 INSTRUCTION MANUAL FIT CHARGER 36 V 3 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS 3.1 GENERAL INFORMATION Please read all safety instructions carefully. Failure to comply with the warnings or take residual risks into account may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury. Keep the operating instructions in a safe place and have them readily available to consult. Pass these instructions on if you provide your e-bike for someone else's use. The generic names used in these operating instructions, such as motor, battery and operating element, all refer to original FIT e-bike components. 3.2 CHARGER Do not expose the charger to rain or damp. If water penetrates into a charger, there is a risk of electric shock. Charge FIT Li-ion batteries approved for e-bikes with the FIT charger only. The battery voltage must match the charger's battery charge voltage; there is a risk of fire and explosion if it does not. Keep the charger clean. Dirt can pose an electric shock hazard. Check charger, cable and connector before use. Do not use the charger if you spot any damage. Do not open up the charger. Damaged chargers, cables and plug connectors increase the risk of electric shock. Do not use the charger on a highly flammable surface (e.g. paper, textiles, etc.) or in flammable surroundings. There is a risk of fire due to the charger heating up during charging. Take care if you touch the charger during charging. Wear protective gloves. The charger can become extremely hot, particularly at high ambient temperatures. The e-bike battery must not be left unattended while it is charging. Supervise children during use, cleaning and maintenance. You must ensure that children do not play with the charger. Children and persons who are not able to use the charger safely due to their limited physical, sensory, or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and/or knowledge must not use it unsupervised or without instruction by a responsible person. If not, there is a risk of incorrect use and injury. 3.3 RECHARGEABLE BATTERY Remove the battery from the e-bike before you start working on the e-bike (e.g. inspection, repair, fitting, maintenance, work on the chain), transport it by car or plane or if you are not going to use it for extended period of time. There is a risk of injury if the e-bike system is activated unintentionally. Do not open up the battery as you risk causing a short circuit. Protect the battery from heat (e.g. including continuous direct sunlight), fire and being submerged in water. Do not store or operate the battery in close proximity to hot or flammable objects as this pose a risk of explosion. Keep the unused battery away from paper clips, coins, keys, nails, screws or other metal objects which could cause an electrical arc between the contacts. A short circuit between the battery contacts can cause fire or burns. Avoid any physical loads on the battery. They may inflict damage to the battery cells and cause flammable substances to leak out. Do not put the charger and battery down next to flammable materials. Only charge batteries when they are dry and in a fireproof place. There is a risk of fire due to heat accumulating during charging. The e-bike battery must not be left unattended while it is charging. FIT_Manual_Battery_charger_Charger_36V_V3_en.pdf | Version 03 | 06.06.2025 5 INSTRUCTION MANUAL FIT CHARGER 36 V If the battery is used incorrectly, liquid may leak from it. Avoid coming into contact with the liquid. Rinse off with water in the event of accidental contact. If the liquid gets into eyes, seek medical attention. Leaked liquid can cause skin irritation and burns. Vapours may be emitted if the battery is damaged or used improperly, ventilate with fresh air and consult a doctor if you suffer any pain or discomfort. The vapours can irritate the airways. Charge the battery with original FIT chargers only. Risk of fire cannot be ruled out if non-original FIT chargers are used. Use the battery in e-bikes with the FIT system only. This is the only way that the battery will be protected from dangerous overloading. Only use original FIT rechargeable batteries which the manufacturer has approved for your e-bike. Using other batteries can result in injuries and risk of fire. FIT accepts no liability and offers no warranty if other batteries are used. Keep the battery away from children. Our e-bike rechargeable batteries are lithium-ion batteries which are developed and manufactured to the latest technical standards. Lithium-ion batteries have a high energy content when charged. In the event of a defect, possibly not visible on the outside, lithium-ion batteries may catch fire in very rare instances and under unfavourable conditions.

Only use the charger included in the scope of delivery of your e-bike. This is the only charger suited to the Li-ion battery used in your e-bike. Fully charge the battery with the charger before you first use it to ensure full power from the battery. Do not connect the charger to the socket immediately after a sudden temperature change from cold to warm. There is a possibility of condensation forming on the contacts and then causing a short circuit. Wait until both charger and battery reach room temperature before connecting the charger or battery. The battery can be charged directly or in the e-bike without shortening its service life. Interrupting the charging process does not damage the battery. The battery is fitted with a temperature monitoring system, which only allows charging within the stipulated temperature range. 5.2 CHARGING OPTIONS The battery can be charged while inserted in the e-bike or after it has been removed. Look in the e-bike manufacturer's original operating instructions to find where the e-bike charging socket is. Connect the charger to the e-bike charging socket (or directly to the battery) to charge. The charge indicator will automatically appear on the e-bike display screen if the battery is fitted into the e-bike. The display backlight will go out after a certain period of time. However, you can press the On-Off button to switch it back on again at any time. 5.3 INITIAL OPERATION Exclamat CAUTION Check the mains voltage is correct. The voltage must match the voltage indicated on the charger nameplate. Insert the plug on the enclosed mains cable into the socket on the charger. Connect the mains cable to the mains. Only charge the battery in compliance with all safety instructions. If this is not possible when the battery is installed, remove it from the e-bike and charge it somewhere suitable. Follow the operating instructions for the battery used. 5.4 CHARGING THE BATTERY WHEN FITTED Connect the charger to the e-bike charging socket to charge. The battery level indicator will automatically appear on the display. The display backlight will go out after a certain period of time. However, you can press the On-Off button to switch it back on again at any time. 5.5 CHARGING THE BATTERY WHEN REMOVED Before removing the battery, ensure that you have configured the required charge mode. You cannot change the charge mode when charging a battery that has been removed. Connect the charger to the battery charging socket to charge. 5.6 COMPLETION OF CHARGING After charging is complete, disconnect the charger from the mains and the battery from the charger.
