IMAGE

STEP/DESCRIPTION

Recharging the Bluetooth device*

The red flashing light indicates that the Bluetooth system 

needs recharging.

Turn the device off (blue light off) and connect the cable 

provided to the Tribike battery or to an external USB 

adapter.

While charging, the red light will light up, when charging is 

complete, the light will go off.

Practical tips

When connecting the Bluetooth to the battery provided to 

recharge it, make sure the battery does not go into standby, 

which is usually set automatically after 15 minutes. 

Recharging the Bluetooth while using the Tribike is not 

recommended. 

* The Bluetooth system is only available on Tribike E Plus.

INFORMATION ON USE OF THE BLUETOOTH SYSTEM

Use  of  the  Bluetooth  device  implements  the  electronics  of  the  Tribike  E  Plus  with  IBS  and  Starting 
Assistance. With the Bluetooth device flat or switched off, the Tribike maintains all the functions of ACC,
