Dear Customers,
Thank you for purchasing a B’TWIN electrically-assisted bike. It will introduce you to the joys
of travelling on 2 wheels for your leisure, it will be the most practical and economical way for
you to get around in town and will allow you to burn calories to keep fit.
We invite you to read this instruction manual to get the most out of your B’TWIN electrical-
ly-assisted bike.
Never forget that an electrically-assisted bike is not a moped. It needs your help to go further,
faster and longer.
We suggest that you learn how to use your electrically-assisted bike in an open area in order
to get used to the feel of the motor kicking in and thus ensure optimum control of your bicycle.
Only use sport mode for your first kilometres if you are sure that you are able to control your
bike.
Here are the 10 commandments to get the best use of your B’TWIN electrically-assisted
bicycle.

You must always make sure you are capable of riding the entire journey without assistance,
in case your battery runs flat.
Important, this instruction manual only applies to the electrical characteristics of
your bicycle.
