Before the first use, please fully charge the battery, this can take up to 6 hours. The
smart charger will turn off the charging current once the battery is full and will
NOT
overcharge the battery. Also ensure the tyre pressures are correct, check that all the
nuts and bolts on the bike are secure ESPECIALLY THE QUICK RELEASE FOLDING
JOINTS as they may have become loose during shipping and that the breaks work
correctly.
Front Wheel
Before the front wheel can be installed the spindle must be installed. Undo the knob
and remove the first spring. Slide the spindle through the hub, put the spring back
(narrow section pointing towards the wheel, wide section away) and screw the knob
back onto the spindle a few turns. DO NOT TIGHTEN THE KNOB ALL THE WAY YET.
Once the spindle is installed in the wheel, the wheel can be installed into the bike.
Lift the front of the bike and slide in the wheel. Particular attention will need to be
paid to fitting the disk brake into the disk calliper. With everything lined up, the
weight of the bike can be rested on the front wheel. Open the quick release lever
and tighten the knob to the point where closing the quick release lever offers a
reasonable amount of resistance. If the quick release cannot be closed try undoing
the knob a quarter of a turn. If the lever is easy to close try tightening the knob a
little.
Once you have installed the front wheel lift the front of the bike off the ground and
spin the wheel. It should spin freely and should be straight when viewed from the
front. If the wheel drops out or is not straight re-read the instructions and repeat the
previous steps. If the disk brake sounds like it is rubbing it will need to be adjusted.
Pedals
Attach the pedals before riding. Each pedal will only fit on its respective side; they
are marked for easy installation either with a sticker on the pedal or embossed on
the end of the threaded section. A 15mm spanner is needed for this. The thread
direction is different for each pedal so the direction that tightens the pedals is
different for each side. The right-hand pedal is done up by tightening clock-wise and
the left is anti-clockwise.
Turning On/Off
Once ready, turn the key in the battery to the on position (most clockwise position),
then press and hold the on/off button and the display will turn on. The bike is now
on. Hold on/off again to turn the bike off or turn the key to the off position (one
position anticlockwise from the on position
Lights
The bike is fitted with a front light. With the display turned on, press and hold the up
button to turn on the front light. Turning the bike off will also turn the light off.
