• 

Do not short-circuit the battery pack’s terminals.

• 

Do not charge the battery pack if the temperature is over 

140ºF (60ºC).

• 

Do not disassemble the battery pack.

• 

Do not submerge the battery pack in liquid or use it in  

wet areas.

• 

Do not place the battery pack near fire or heat.

• 

Do not expose the battery pack to freezing temperatures 

for an extended period. Do not charge a frozen battery 

pack. Allow it to reach room temperature.

The e-bike features a high-capacity lithium ion rechargeable 

battery pack. The lithium battery pack does not have a “memory 

effect” associated with older battery technologies. It is highly 

recommended you charge the battery pack after every ride, 

even if the battery pack is only lightly used.

An onboard circuit prevents the battery pack from overcharging. 

The battery pack can achieve 500-700 full charge cycles. As 

the battery pack receives more charge cycles, the capacity will 

decrease. Charging a partially discharged battery pack is not 

considered a full charge cycle.

NOTICE

Recharge the battery pack at least once every month. A battery pack left unused for 
several months may result in permanent capacity loss.

Cold environments temporaily reduce the battery pack’s 

capacity. Avoid using the electric bicycle in very hot weather. 

Store the e-bike in a sheltered place.

Fully charge the battery pack before your first use. The charger 

included with the e-bike recognizes the battery pack’s initial 

charge and will automatically cease charging when the battery 

pack is fully charged. Always charge the battery pack before a 

long trip.

• 

Be sure the e-bike is powered off.

• 

Be sure to use the proper 48 VDC or 52 VDC charging 

profile if using the Cycle Satiator

® 

charger.

• 

The battery pack can be charged while connected to the 

e-bike or while removed from the e-bike. (See 

“Removing 

the Battery Pack” on page 29

.)

ONBOARD CHARGING

1. 

Stand on the left side and locate the charge port dust cover 

on the top of the battery pack.

2. 

Rotate the dust cover to expose the DC charge port.

Fig. 26 - Charge Port

3. 

Carefully plug the charger into the charge port.

4. 

Connect the AC power cable into the charger and plug the 

cable into the power outlet. The charger will automatically 

start charging the battery pack.

5. 

When the charger is charging the battery pack, the 

indicator LED will turn red. When the battery pack is 

fully charged, the light will turn green and the battery will 

automatically stop charging. Charging takes 1-8 hours, 

depending on battery size and initial charge level. (See 

“Reading the Battery Pack Level” on page 19

.)

6. 

Disconnect the charger from the wall.

7. 

Remove the charger plug from the DC charge port. Rotate 

the dust cover to protect the port.

NOTICE

If you charge your battery while it’s on the bike, be sure to remove and re-seat your 
pack every couple of rides. Road vibration and rough terrain may make the battery 
come loose.

HYDRAULIC BRAKES

There are several components that make up your braking 

system. The hydraulic part needs to be inspected and serviced 

to check for wear and tear. If the hydraulic brakes are worn,  

replacement will be needed. When a replacement is needed 

varies by amount of time riding, mileage, riding style and 

location.

We recommend inspecting your brakes before every ride.

Notice: If there appears to be any issue with your braking 

system (or any other item) do not use your bike and contact our 

Support Team or visit an authorized mechanic.

MINERAL OIL CUPS

Have a trained mechanic service the mineral oil cups on the 

handlebars.
