2.3 Regenerative braking (KERS) (see figure 4)
BIKE all in one features a regenerative braking function; this al-
lows you to slow down the bicycle using the electric motor as a
generator recharging the batteries thanks to the integrated Kinetic
Energy Reccuperation System (KERS). In order to activate the
regenerative braking you need to pedal backwards. As soon as you
stop pedalling, the motor will stop braking.
NOTE : when the charger get disconnected from the bike,
BIKE all in one will turn off.
CAUTION : Regenerative braking DOES NOT substitute
safety mechanical brakes. Please do NOT remove the me-
chanical brakes from your bike.
