SLOWING DOWN/BRAKING
In the United States, bicyclists are required to use a hand signal to alert surrounding traff ic
of their intention to slow down or stop. Your eTrike is equipped with rear braking lights which
activate when you engage either hand brake, and which may be used in place of the hand signal.
If the rear braking lights are not functional, you should have the eTrike serviced immediately
for repair. The proper hand signal must be used if riding the eTrike without rear braking lights.
a.
Braking: Release the throttle and squeeze both the front and rear hand brakes with equal
pressure until the eTrike comes to a full stop.
b.
Slow Down: Release the throttle and squeeze both the front and rear hand brakes with
enough equal pressure to slow the eTrike down to the desired speed.
