Operation of Energy Indicator
It is extremely important to the performance, enjoyment and safety of your electric vehicle and yourself to understand how the
features of the electric bicycle operate. Even if you’re an experienced cyclist, you should not assume that the way things have
worked on previously owned bicycles will operate similarly on the electric bicycle. Be sure to read – and to understand – this
section of the owner’s manual. If you have even the slightest doubt about how any of the mechanical features of the electric
bicycle operate, talk to your authorized Giant retailer.
The Battery Energy & Malfunction Indicator is located on the right side of the handlebar. To access electric motor assistance,
press the “ON/OFF” power button. You will hear a one-second beep indicating that the system is functioning properly.
■
When Energy Indicator is turned on, Suede E provides Pedal Activated Power (PAP) any time the rider pedals. By using the
twist throttle, rider can increase power while pedaling (Variable Power Control) or control power by using the throttle only
without pedaling.
■
Suede E is equipped with automatic Cruise Control. When a constant speed has been maintained for over five seconds, motor
assistance will maintain that
motor assistance
until you either accelerate using the throttle or apply the brake.
When the bike provides VPC or PAP function, motor power automatically shuts down at the speed of 17 mph (28km/hr).
When the bike provides DD function, the max speed is 12 mph (20km/hr).
DD function is not available when the speed is under 3 mph (5 km/hr).
The indicator is automatically shut off 5 minutes after the bicycle stops. (auto-off system)
When you press the button from “OFF” to “ON”, the four LEDs will light up, indicating that the system is okay.
LEDs on the Energy Indicator will be lit while power is on and there will be a beep for approx. one second.
CAUTION:
If LED lamp does not light up during operation, check if the battery is charged and securely mounted.
Power assist is not available when indicator is blinking or continuous beep.
If the other LED lights flash while riding, it means that there is a possible malfunction. The light will keep flashing for
approx. five minutes, then it will shut off. Press the button to “OFF” and back to “ON” again. If they keep flashing, bring
your bike to your Authorized Giant retailer to have it checked as soon as possible.
If the electric bicycle is stored with the battery in place, press the power button on the indicator to the “OFF” position.
Leaving the power indicator in the “ON” position while stored or parked will result in rapid energy loss.
