2.8 Inflating tires
a. Remove the cap from the tire valve, twist the tire
valve and inflate using a pump with Presta valve
attachment (recommended 70-80psi, minimum
65psi, maximum 85psi).
b. Tighten the tire valve, and place the cap back on.
2.9 Check brake calipers
a. Spin your front wheel to ensure it is rolling
smoothly. If there is too much tension (resulting in a
slow/tight turn) you can loosen the two (2) x 5mm
caliper bolts, then squeeze the brake lever into
alignment (right brake lever on your handlebars)
before tightening the bolts again.
2.10 Charging your n+ Mercedes EQ
bike
Your electric bike comes shipped at approximately
20% charge and your bike must be charged before
first use. Your battery sits securely and seamlessly in
your seatpost.
Your battery range is 60km, however this can vary due
to wind/weather conditions, riding terrain and rider’s
style/weight.
You have two (2) charge options:
1.
Connecting your charger directly to your bike:
To
charge, simply connect your n+EQ Power Adaptor
into a powerpoint then connect to the charging
point (you can find this in the seat post down the
bottom of the tube. Refer to YOUR BIKE diagram at
the start of this manual).
2.
Removing your battery and using the charging
adaptor.
To charge, remove seat post support
by flipping the cam lock and wriggling the saddle
up in a vertical direction. Once the seat post has
been removed you can pull the tab on the top of
the battery to release it from the seatpost (please
note some earlier model allocations have a battery
removal clip affixed to the saddle rails for easy
battery removal). Once you have completed the
charge and are ready to ride, place the battery back
into position, lining the pins up inside the seatpost.
You do not need to remove your battery for charging.
When the battery is charging the RED charging light
will be on, when the battery has been fully charged the
light will change to GREEN.
Battery care:
Please do not leave your battery on
charge for extended periods of time, as this can
reduce its life cycle. It is also recommended that you
replace your battery after 500 charge cycles.
Powering on and off:
Your n+ Mercedes-Benz EQ
eBike comes with a master ON/OFF Switch located
underneath the battery indicator panel on the frame.
To turn on, simply press the button once (the button
will be flush against the frame).When the bike is not
being used, it is best to turn the switch to the OFF
position which can be activated by pressing the
button once.
n+ Power Pack lndicator:
The battery indicator will
display a fraction of the remaining battery life via
the five LED lights mounted on the frame. When the
battery is low the last light will flash and change RED to
indicate the battery is low and needs to be recharged.
