Intended Use
This model is equipped with an electric pedal assist drive system. It is not
a moped or motorcycle. In EU countries, it is known legally as an “EPAC”
cycle or Electrically Powered Assisted Cycle.
The drive assist system consists of a drive unit, a battery, a computer
control, and various electronic components (harness wires, sensors,
and switches). This model bike does share components common with
pedal-only bikes.
It is important to know that when the assist system is turned ON, the
drive unit engages to provide power only while you are pedaling. The
amount of power provided by the drive unit depends on your pedaling
force and the assistance mode/level you set with the handlebar control
unit. At anytime, if you stop pedaling, the drive assist will dis-engage. In
all modes/levels, the drive assist system power reduces progressively and
cuts off as the bike reaches a the maximum allowable speed. The drive-
assist re-engages when speed drops below the maximum allowable speed
as long as the pedals are turning.
Whenever the drive assist system is turned OFF, You can pedal the bike
normally. The drive system will not engage.
