Powerplay Owner's Manual
Battery
Our Powerplay models feature proprietary controls, motors, and battery components.
Some of these components are sensitive and require extra care. We want to ensure
that you have the most information possible. Please take note of the following updated
details related to the Rocky Mountain Powerplay battery, recharging and care.
Failure to follow the instructions and guidelines in this section may result in damage
of electrical components on your bike and will void your warranty. More importantly,
failure to follow the instructions may result in serious personal injury or death.
General
• The batteries used in all Rocky Mountain Powerplay devices have all the required
certifications, and a Battery Management System (BMS) that provides multiple
levels of fail-safes to prevent hazards. Despite this safety measure, a charged
battery that has reached extreme temperatures or a charging port that has
sustained damage can be dangerous, leading to electrical shock, fire, or injury.
• If your battery or charger exhibits any signs of damage, do not use it, and
immediately bring your bike to your authorized Rocky Mountain retailer for
inspection.
• The battery and drive unit, along with other proprietary Powerplay components,
should only be serviced by mechanics that have gone through Rocky Mountain
Powerplay training.
• Do not allow any small, sharp, and/or metallic objects to come in contact with the
battery or the battery's recharging socket.
• Do not modify, open, or disassemble the battery or charger.
• Never clean an Altitude Powerplay with a high-pressure washer or submerge the
bike in water. Rain and normal washing will not cause a problem.
• Undamaged batteries will not release fluids or gases. However, in the event of
damage, battery fluid can cause skin irritation and burns, and battery gases can be
released and irritate the airways. In the event of skin or eye contact with any fluids or
gases from the battery, immediately flush with water and seek medical assistance.
