OPERATION OF PEDAL ASSIST & DIRECT THROTTLE POWER
It is extremely important to the performance, enjoyment and safety of your electric bicycle
and yourself to understand how the features of your electric bike operate. Even if you’re an
experienced cyclist, you should not take for granted that the way things have worked on
previously owned bicycles will operate similarly on your new electric bicycle. Be sure to read
and understand this section of the manual. If you have even the slightest doubt about how
any of the mechanical features of the electric bicycle operate, talk to your authorized dealer.
INDICATOR
Power Button: Activates motor for pedal assist and direct throttle power. If power is not on,
bicycle works as normal without electrical assistance.
Light: On/Off button for light/s.
This function is only available when a light is installed
on the bike.
Mode: Switches the mode of the direct throttle power for higher performance.
This function
is only available for multi-mode electric bikes. Please check your product description for
more information.
The battery level indicator is located on the left side of the handlebar. To activate electric
motor assistance, press the power button down (the battery level indicator will show a
series of red bars) and then pedal, just like you would on a normal bike. When the battery
is switched on, your bike provides electrical assistance whenever the rider operates the
pedals. Remember that this mode provides the greatest range capability. When the bike
provides pedal assist functionality, the motor power automatically shuts down at the speed
of 25 km/h. The pedal assist function will only come into effect two seconds after pedaling
begins. When the bike is switched on (via the battery) the throttle on the right hand side
of the handlebar, automatically overrides the pedal assist system and provides direct
progressive power when using the twist grip accelerator. When you switch the battery to
the on position using the key switch, the red battery level indicators light up on the left hand
side of the handlebar to indicate that the system is fully functioning and the battery level is
indicated by the red LED lights. LED’s on the battery level indicator will be lit while power is
on and will shut down when the battery power is depleted.
LED STATUS ON INDICATOR
The battery level indicators visually demonstrates the remaining battery life. The more LED
lights illuminated the greater amount of battery life. If the LED lights continuously flash there
is a malfunction. Reset the power. If the symptom persists even after resetting, take your
bike back to an authorised dealer.
