Checking Battery Charge Level
In addition to the main display, the battery charge level can also be checked directly on
the battery.
A. Remove the battery following the steps outlined in the “Removing the Battery”
section.
B. Locate the battery fuel gauge at the top of the battery.
C. Push the button on the battery fuel gauge. Fuel gauge LEDs will light up
corresponding to the level of charge in the battery pack.

Pedal Assist System (PAS)
The pedal assist system (PAS) augments your natural pedaling action by providing an
additional boost from the motor. Using the “+” and “-“ buttons on the display, you can
control the level of assistance provided by the motor. As the PAS level is increased, the
amount of assistance increases and the faster you will go. The PAS setting will depend
on several factors including, but not limited to:
• Riding terrain (flat vs. incline)
• Total payload
• Desired range
The gear shifter will not affect the performance of the hub motor or pedal assist system,
however it will affect the amount of resistance you feel. Lower gears provide less resistance
with a higher pedaling cadence. Higher gears provide more resistance and a slower
pedaling cadence. Some experimentation will be necessary to dial in the combination of
PAS level and gear setting that offers a smooth ride based on your preference.
Throttle
The throttle provides an alternate way to power the motor if you do not want to pedal. If
the bike is powered on, the throttle can be activated by slowly pushing the throttle lever
downward. The throttle can also be used in addition to the pedal assist system. When only
using the throttle, the maximum speed of the bike will be capped at 20MPH.
Notice: Using the bike in throttle-only mode will negatively impact the range of the battery vs. using
pedal assist.
WARNING! Do not push down on the throttle lever when dismounted to avoid accidental
acceleration of the bike.
