4-Riding the Bike
Assuming the bike has been correctly assembled, switch on
the battery using the green switch, then press (and hold) the
‘Mode’ button to switch on the ‘Control Module’. The bike is
now effectively on, and if you ride it in this state, the motor
will provide assistance when pedalling and you will also be
able to use the throttle to control your speed if desired. To
vary the amount of assistance provided, use the up/down
buttons to cycle through the 5 levels of available assistance.
There are several other features available on this ‘control
module’ and these will be covered later in the manual. The
information provided so far is just enough to get you up and
running as quickly as possible.
Your bike comes equipped with Nexus gears. To cycle
through the gears, simply twist the gear selector on the right
side of the handlebars to select the desired gear.
Warnings
Do not allow anyone under the age of 14 to ride the bike.
Do not ride the bike if you are over the weight limit for the
model you have chosen.
Do not bump the bike up and down kerbs.
Slow down when riding over bumpy/rough surfaces.
Do not use the throttle on full constantly.
It is illegal to use the throttle in mainland Europe.
Always observe the highway code.
Wear appropriate safety pads/helmet.
Always ride more slowly and brake more gently in wet
weather.
Always ensure that power is switched off when performing
maintenance on the bike. If you are performing maintenance
on any of the electrical components on the bike, remove the
battery completely before you begin.
Pay special attention to the
“Maintenance”
section of this
manual. It contains information that will help keep you safe
and prolong the life of your bike. Failure to keep your bike
maintained could result in safety issues for which Woosh
Bikes will not be held liable. You may also void your warranty
if you do not take proper care of your bike.
Your bike should be stored in a cool dry location when not in
use. In the winter, you should ensure that the battery is not
exposed to extreme cold as this will shorten the life of the
battery. If necessary keep your battery indoors, and if the
bike is not going to be used for long periods, fully recharge
your battery every two to three weeks.
