Getting

 

to

 

know

 

your

 

product.

 

This e-Bike use the concept of “

Pedal

 

Assist

”, also known as “Pedelec”, 

(pedal

 

electric

 

cycle)

 where the 

rider's pedaling is assisted by a small electric motor. Pedelec’s include an electronic controller which control 
and cuts power to the motor when the rider is not pedaling or when a certain speed is obtained.  

Pedelecs are useful for people who ride in hilly areas or in strong headwinds. 

 

We recommend that you ride your bike with the power off at first, to get familiar with your e-Bike’s braking 
and gear shifting until you are familiar and comfortable with the controls and the “feel”, you can then start 
testing the assist levels incrementally to get comfortable with the optimal settings for you

.

 

Charging

 

the

 

Battery

 

The EVx Electric e-Bike’s comes with a high-capacity Lithium Ion rechargeable battery. The battery needs to 
be fully charged before your first use. The intelligent charger that came with your e-Bike will control the 
battery pack charging and will automatically end charging when the battery is fully charged. Make sure your 
battery is fully charged before you go on a long trip. 

The battery can be charged on your bike or you can remove it from the e-Bike to charge it at a convenient 
location inside your house or at a charging station (See Removing Battery pack later in this document)

 

To

 

charge

 

the

 

battery:

  

Be sure the e-Bike is powered off. 
Be sure to always use 

only

 

the

 

charger

 supplied with the product.   (Using another charger may void 

your battery warranty) 

The charger must be plugged into a 220/230 50 Hz AC supply. (The usual power outlet available in a 

South African home)  

 

Onboard

 

charging:

 

 

Stand on the left side and locate the charge port cover on the bottom of the battery pack. 

 

Lift the rubber dust cap away to expose the DC charge port. 

 

Carefully, plug the charger into the charger port 

 

Connect the AC power cable into the charger and plug the cable into the power outlet. 

 

The charger will automatically start charging if the battery needs to be charged.

 

 

When the charger is charging the battery, the indicator LED will turn RED. 

 

When the charger is complete, the charger will turn GREEN. 

 

Charging  takes  between  1  and  6  hours,  depending  on  battery  size  and  initial  charge  level.  (see 
verifying battery charge level further in the document) 

 

When  the  pack  is  fully  charged,  the  charger’s  light  will  change  from  amber  to  green  and 

automatically stop charging. 

 

Disconnect the charger  from  the  wall.  Remove  the  charger  plug  from  battery and close  the 

rubber dust cap. 

 

Use your battery often so it exercises the cells and is kept healthy
