Starting Off
When the controller is on, the power assist will be applied immediately when you step on the Pedal. It is, therefore, recommended to mount
your Commuter with the controller off. After you are seated, make sure no weight is on the pedals to prevent accidental movement, then turn
on the controller. Start off at the lowest level of assistance.
Selecting the Correct Level of Assistance
Do not only ride in high gear with power assist. Change gears as you would on a conventional bicycle to maintain an efficient cadence for your
riding style. This will maximize the efficiency of the assistance to your power input.
Riding with Power Assistance
How much you pedal determines how much assistance the motor provides. All pedelecs have an internal control algorithm to stop assisting
as soon as you stop pedaling. This is an inbuilt safety feature conforming to EN 15194 (EPAC – Electrically Power Assisted Cycles).
When cornering on a pedelec, stop pedaling sooner than you are used to, otherwise, you may have too much speed through the turn.
As you are likely to be traveling at an average above speed, look further up the road and be ready to brake whenever a possible situation
appears before you.
Due to the near silent nature of an electric motor, pedestrians and other cyclists may not hear you approaching.
Ride defensively, wear bright clothing, signal your intentions, and use your bell when necessary.

Battery
Your Commuter is equipped with a lithium-ion battery. Modern lithium-ion batteries have more than 500 full discharge cycles before
the capacity decreases. The battery does not have a memory effect so you may charge the battery at any time and do not have to wait
until the battery is completely depleted before charging again. If
you’re
going to stop using the bike for more than a month, charge the
battery to about 80% full before storage.
Never fully d
rain the battery and leave it uncharged for a prolonged period of time as this may
damage the battery permanently.
Only use the original cha
rger from the battery manufacturer. Do not use another charger, even if
the plug
fits.

Tampering with the motor system
It is forbidden to tamper with the motor system, in any way. Aftermarket devices or software that alters the speed limit and/or
an addition of throttle and/or other devices will void the warranty of your bike. It will potentially create a severe safety hazard
and might be considered unlawful.
Batteries must not be disposed of in landfills or by incineration
