To activate the throttle, select level 6. "Assist 6" will
be displayed on the LCD panel. In this mode the
throttle on the left handlebar, (twist-grip), is now live.
In all other assistance levels the throttle is not
functional.
You can still pedal the bike but power will not be
applied until the throttle is activated. To activate, twist
the left grip towards the rider.
Use the throttle control gently. A small twist will apply a small
amount of power. Twisting more will increase the power until the
control is fully rotated at which point full motor power will be
applied.
Throttle assistance can also be used without pedalling.
A handy way to use the throttle is to pull away from junctions, or
when starting on inclines as the rider will pull away easier and is
less likely to wobble. It can also be very useful for pulling out and
overtaking slower cyclists smoothly and quickly.
Using the Throttle - Country Specific
PLEASE NOTE:
The throttle control is not activated for some countries due to legal
restrictions. Please refer to your dealer for help and advice.
