Figure C3:
The
thumb throttle (9)
is located on the right hand side of the
handlebar, next to the
handle-grip (10)
. Not all models have a throttle.
By default the throttle is NOT connected and therefore DOES NOT work.
Refer to the relevant section in this manual how to connect the throttle.
To use the throttle to accelerate the bike, push the
thumb lever (9)
down in the direction of the arrow using your thumb. The acceleration is
gradual: Push down only a little bit for moderate acceleration. Push it
down all the way for maximum acceleration.
WARNING:
Do not use
throttle when turning. Accelerate slowly. Ride carefully.
WARNING:
Take care not to activate the throttle accidentally as the
motor will accelerate potentially causing injury. Switch the bike OFF if
you’re
pushing it. Always be ready to press the
brake lever (11)
to stop
the bike in case of accidental acceleration.
OPERATION OF YOUR ELECTRIC BIKE
•
Your e-bike is driven by a motor embedded in the hub (centre) of the front wheel. The motor is powered by a
battery. The amount of power delivered to the motor, and hence the accelerating force on the e-bike, is controlled
by you.
•
There are two systems to activate the motor: 6km/h button (press and hold
button (3), Figure C2
) and Pedal Assist.
•
By default the throttle is NOT connected and therefore DOES NOT work. Refer to the relevant section in this manual
how to connect the throttle. The throttle must not be used on public roads.
•
In Pedal Assist mode, the motor is triggered when you pedal forward, and power assist will stop when you stop
pedaling. In other words, power assist happens as long as you pedal. You
don’t
need to pedal hard. All you need is
to apply a light force to the pedals continuously to maintain continuous rotation. When you apply one of the brakes,
power-assist will automatically stop, allowing the e-bike to slow down or stop. Power assist will turn itself off before
the e-bike has reached the maximum speed of approximately 25 km/h
•
Note that the Battery level indicators on the display (Figure C2, 5) will only show an estimate of the battery charge
level when power is not being drawn from the battery (bike standing still). While using motor assistance voltage will
decrease.
The LCD display panel (Figure C2)
controls a number of features
on your ebike.
WARNING!
Only switch Pedal assist ON if you intend to ride the
bike and if there is enough space in front of the bike. Do not
pedal when turning! Always switch bike and Pedal assist OFF
when walking next to bike and pushing the bike to prevent
accidental acceleration. Always be ready to press the
brake
lever
to stop the bike. Do not use pedal assist in tight situations.
The bike may leap forward and cause injury.
WARNING!
Pushing and holding the
“down”
button (3)
will
activate the motor to travel at approximately 6 km/h (walking
speed).

-To activate
“Pedal Assist”
push the
UP button (1)
briefly to
increase the power and speed. Push the
“DOWN”
button (3)
briefly to decrease the power and speed.
“Pedal assist”
means
that the motor will be activated when you start pedalling and
the bike will move forward with motor assistance while you are
pedalling. Your
Pedal Assist Level is shown on the LCD screen
(4).
Level 0: pedal assist is OFF. At lower assistance levels the
motor will accelerate to lower speeds. At maximum assistance
level 5 the motor will accelerate to approximately 25 km/h.
-Auto switch off is bike is idle for several minutes to save energy
