Toggling the (optional) Rungu E-Light on and off
If you have the Rungu E-Light with your MDV, the Rungu E-Light toggle turns the light on and off. Press
and hold the Rungu E-Light toggle for one second and release to turn the light on. Do the same to turn it
off. The screen will dim when you turn the light on for nighttime visibility.
Turning off the MDV
Use the on/off key to turn the MDV off. The MDV will also turn off if left idle for a few minutes. Display
settings control the amount of time in minutes.
Riding the MDV
NOTE: Refer to MDV Best Practices (on your USB document drive and online) for more information on
how to get the best experience with the Rungu Electric Juggernaut.
MDV Operation Cautions
1.
DO NOT use FULL throttle for prolonged periods of time. This will result in excessive heat
buildup in the motor, throttle and batteries. Think about what would happen to your car if you
redlined it for prolonged periods of time... It will not last very long. Do not abuse your system,
and it will last you a long time!
2.
DO NOT cruise long distances over 80% of the stated top speed due to heat buildup in the
components. For instance, if your MDV
’s
top speed is 20mph, do not cruise over 16 mph. This is
a rule of thumb to prolong the life of your system.
3.
DO NOT operate in excessive heat (over 100 degrees Fahrenheit) for a prolonged period of time.
Doing so may result in excessive heat buildup and some components may shut down due to
thermal protection.
4.
If you notice a decrease in performance or abnormal operation, cease electrical operation
immediately. Failure to do so may result in damage to electrical components.
5.
DO NOT apply the brakes abruptly when going downhill as this may result in loss of control. Use
consistent, gradual braking.
6.
ALWAYS help your system out by pedaling up steep inclines and through deep snow and sand. If
you hear your motor struggling or your system is going less than 5 mph at full throttle, either
help out by pedaling more, or simply get off your MDV and walk it.
WARNING: Standard Bearer Machines and Hi Power Cycles will not be responsible for burnt motors
due to willful neglect.
7.
Ride the MDV at a level and speed you are comfortable with. Do not push the boundaries of
your skill level or the MDV!
8.
NEVER jump with the Electric Juggernaut. The Electric Juggernaut is designed for moderate
bumps but jumping your MDV can lead to serious injury and/or damage!
9.
ALWAYS follow local laws regarding your Electric Juggernaut. If your Electric Juggernaut is over
legal power limits, make sure to program your system to federal legal limits when riding on
public roads or property.
10.
MINIMIZE shifting gears at power level 5 to increase chain life.
