Important Instructions
Safeguard your battery to insure continued high performance. It should be recharged after each use. The normal full-cycle battery
life, if it is continuously discharged and recharged, is between
300
–1000 cycles (depending on which battery came with your bike)
after
which the storage capacity of the battery will gradually decline.
CAUTION! Fully charge the batteries before the first use!
Failure to do this can result in decreased battery performance for the life of the bike. Fully charge the battery each time you use the
bike.
Battery performance is affected by the temperature and is generally better in warm temperatures. When the temperature is below
32º F (0º C), the battery current may decrease by a third. Consequently, the travel range on a full charge in cold environments is much
less, but will return to normal when the temperature is back to room temperature.
Frequent stopping and starting, riding uphill, traveling against a strong wind, starting from a standstill, riding on rough or muddy
roads, and carrying more than one person or heavy loads will consume extra battery power and shorten the range. A few tips to
prolong the battery life during these conditions is as follows:
Frequent braking – try to look ahead and coast rather than frequently stopping and starting.
Riding uphill or against a stiff wind – pedal to supplement the battery power.
When starting from a standstill, use the pedals to help bring you up to speed.
When the battery meter indicates the voltage is low, switch to manual power and avoid using the battery, so you don’t
shorten the battery life.
To prevent premature failure of your battery and for your warranty to remain in effect on your battery,
YOU MUST CHARGE
AND DISCHARGE THE BATTERY AT LEAST ONCE PER MONTH.
Always turn off the motor and remove the key from the ignition before and during charging to
prevent serious damage to the controller and to the batteries!
This electric bicycle can be used in the rain, however,
the motor and other electrical parts must not be submerged in water.
The controller, motor and other electrical devices may be short circuited causing damage, which is
NOT
covered by warranty, and
creating possible dangerous situations.
DO NOT use chargers or other components other than that which has been approved
and tested by this company. This company is not responsible for damages caused by the use of other
products not specifically designed and tested for use with this electric bike.
Battery chargers contain sensitive electronics. Improper use, dropping, or sudden jolts can damage the charger and its internal
electronics which is
NOT
covered by warranty.
Check all nuts, bolts, screws, and spokes to make sure they are tight before riding. If any screws, nuts, or bolts continue to loosen,
put some thread lock on the threads and then tighten.
When riding down hill, you MUST have the key on even if you are NOT using the
throttle and even if the battery is not in the bike. The motor will generate enough
electricity to RUIN your controller which is NOT covered by warranty.
