DRIVING RANGE
The range of your Omnia is the distance the bike will travel on a single full charge of the battery pack. The range values in this manual are estimates
based on expected usage characteristics. Some of the factors which effect range include changes in elevation, speed, payload, and acceleration,
number of starts and stops and ambient air temperatures. Tyre pressure and terrain are also important variables to consider.
We suggest that you ride conservatively when you first get your Omnia Bike to get to know your bike and travel routes.
Once you become familiar with the range requirements of your travel routes, and the capabilities of your Omnia Bike you can then adjust your riding
characteristics if you so desire.
The following table provides general estimates and outlines various factors effecting range and their combined estimated effects on range. This table
is meant to help owners understand the factors that can increase or decrease range, but Wattwheels makes no claims to the range that individual
users might obtain.
RANGE EXTENDERS
Range extenders are available for purchase to extend the range of your Omnia. The range extenders are battery packs that look like drink bottles and
fit inside of a bottle cage on the seat tube and plug into the frame near the charging port. The range extenders will double the battery capacity of your
Omnia. The range extenders are easy to install and only require plugging in and can be taken with you and used as a battery bank if you wish.
With the battery gauge located on the bottom of the display please take note on new bikes the gauge can drop quite quickly in
itially. If this happens don’t be
alarmed as this is normal and is due to the BMS (battery management system) we use in the bikes, and it will take a few charges for the cells to balance out.
There will also be instances of voltage sag where the voltage drops when using a high level of PAS, biking up hills or under a heavy load which again is normal.
As mentioned, it is good to do a few smaller rides first to get familiar with the bike and the range you can get depending on what settings you have the bike on.
Pay close attention to the section in looking after your battery to prolong and maximise its life.
