1. PRE-RIDE INSPECTION &
CHECKLIST:
Never ride your Eclypse electric kids’ bike on public
streets, roads, highways, at night or when visibility is
limited.
Power off:
Ensure power is off (all LED lights or screen
still dark) during the Pre-Ride Inspection and remains “OFF” until the rider is sitting on the
saddle, both hands gripping the handle bars, both feet flat on the ground.
Throttle:
Ensure the battery is removed and the power is off. Check that the throttle rotates
freely. Ensure there are no cracks or visible damage.
Brake:
Check brake for proper function. When you squeeze lever, brake should provide positive
braking action. Make sure that brake is not rubbing when lever is released. Adjust as required
prior to use.
Side Panels and Chain Guard:
Verify side panels and chain guard is properly installed.
Tires:
Periodically inspect tires for excess wear and aging. Regularly check tire pressure and
inflate as per tire sidewall.
Frame, Fork, Stem and Handlebars:
Check for cracks and loose hardware. Broken
components are rare; however, it is possible for a reckless rider to run into a curb or object and
cause damage. Get into the regular habit of inspecting your electric kids’ bike every time you
ride it!
Hardware/Loose Parts:
Check all hardware, such as nuts, bolts, cables, fasteners, etc. to
ensure they are secure. There should not be any unusual rattles or sounds from loose parts or
broken components. If the unit is damaged, do not ride
it. Reference “Warnings” listed in this manual.

as an approved and properly fitted safety helmet,
eye-wear, athletic shoes (closed toe shoes with rubber
soles), elbow pads, kneepads, etc., are in place prior to
riding. Keep shoelaces tied and out of the way of the
wheels, motor and drive system.
WARNING:
NEVER RIDE BAREFOOTED OR IN
SANDALS.
Laws and Regulations:
Check and obey any local laws
or regulations prior to riding.
2. BATTERY
Note:
Eclypse Astra electric kids’ bike consumes
the most power at start-up, so it is recommended to
use the foot to propel for power at the start. This can
increase battery life.
Battery can only be used on Eclypse electric kids’ bike,
do not use for other uses.
Note:
The electric kids’ bike should be turned OFF
and battery removed when unit is not in use. Electric
kids’ bike will turn off automatically when not use for 1
minute, to avoid battery charge loss.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
Note:
The electric kids’ bike should be turned OFF
and the battery removed when unit is not in use. If the
power switch is left on, the battery loses its charge.
1. Locate battery and orient as shown. [Figure 2].
2. Slide battery into slot on the front of the
down tube of the Eclypse electric kids’ bike.
[Figure 3]
3. There is a point where the battery release
latch/button provides some resistance.
Push the battery past this point. You should
hear a click, and this gap should be closed.
