12 Pedelec mode and ASSIST button
12.1
When you first ride your Wisper bike you will notice that after one turn of the
pedals the motor will start working to assist you by adding power to the back wheel.
This is the standard or pedelec mode. To continue using the pedelec mode you
must keep turning the pedals, if you stop the motor will stop and the bike will slow
to a halt. If you start pedaling again after one turn the motor will start again.
11.2
You will find ASSIST button on the panel on the handle bars with L.M.H
(
low,
Medium, High
)
printed close to three LED’s (small lights). When the ASSIST
button is pressed and the LED illuminates the instant power in pedelec mode is
80% of the maximum power available from the motor. When the button is pressed
again and again, the LED shift between L M and H. L means 40% of the maximum
power in pedelec mode, M means 80%, H means 100%.
11.3
High mode is generally used when you need the maximum amount of assistance
from the motor. Low mode is used when you do not need the instant power of
80% or 100%. Low mode is used in high traffic situations or poor conditions such
as ice and snow when 80% of full power immediately could be dangerous.
