(4). Self-Test Indicator
The Self-Test system can help determine if the two components, the torque sensor and the front wheel
Hub Motor, are working properly. To begin the self-test, make sure your Twist is resting on its kickstand
and Power Control Switch is in the “OFF” position. Place the right pedal forward at the ”3:00 o’clock”
position.
A. Press the Self-Test button and turn the Power Control Switch to either “R” or “L”. One or more of
the middle LED’s on the Left Hand Control should light up.
B. While standing on the right side of the Twist, steady the bicycle by holding the saddle with your
left hand. Then step down on the right pedal while squeezing the right brake lever with your right
hand. Don’t let the rear wheel move. L1,L2,L3 and L4 should light up in order, depending on the
strength and torque you’ve generated while stepping on the right pedal. The harder you push
down on the pedal, the more LED’s(up to L4) will light up.
C. Next, carefully lift the front of the bicycle off the ground and gently spin the front wheel forward.
L2,L3 should light up and flash in sequence as the wheel spins. Stop the wheel from spinning
and carefully place it back on the ground.
If the Twist passed these two tests, you must turn the Power Control Switch to “OFF” and then back to
“R” or “L” to ride again.
If the Twist did NOT pass either or both of these tests, bring it to your Authorized Giant Dealer for
service.
D. Carrier
If you carry luggage on the Rear Rack, make sure everything is securely fixed and free from the rear
wheel, chain, etc. Total weight of the luggage must not exceed 15 kg (35lbs). The Rear Rack is not
equipped with rack straps; ask your Authorized Giant Dealer for straps so luggage can be carried
safely.
Never carry a passenger!
Do not attach a child carrier to the Twist
