WARNING: Failure to remove the battery locking key from the battery
case before riding the bicycle will result in a potentially dangerous
protrusion on the side of the bike. This protrusion could cause serious
injury in the event of an accident. Remove the key before every ride.
Never ride the bike with the key on the battery lock.
Mount the bicycle
o
It is much safer to mount the bicycle BEFORE turning on the power. If
the power is turned ON before you get on the bicycle, you may
inadvertently actuate the twist throttle and cause the bike to lurch forward
before you are ready.
WARNING: Mount the bicycle before turning “ON” the power. Mounting
the bicycle may result in the inadvertent actuation of the throttle. If the
power is “ON”, the bicycle will lurch due to torque generation by the motor,
potentially resulting in serious injury or death, and property damage. Insure
that the power is “OFF” before mounting the bicycle. Conversely, for the
same reasons, turn the power “OFF” before dismounting the bicycle.
Turn “ON” the battery power
o
Once you are comfortably seated on the bicycle, turn the ‘ignition’ key
mounted in the throttle/battery state-of-charge indicator housing 1/4
