It is extremely important to the performance, enjoyment and safety of your Twist bicycle 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 Twist bike. 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 Twist operate, talk to your Authorized 
Giant Dealer. 
 
 

A.  HYBRID CYCLING TECHNOLOGY 

 
Hybrid Cycling Technology provides motor assistance based on your pedaling force and speed. To 
engage hybrid power, turn the Power Control Switch located on the right side of the handlebar to either 
the “R” or “L” position. This engages the battery on either the right (“R”) side of the bicycle or the left 
(“L”). 
 

B.  Power Control Switch (Only Freedom CS model) 

 

 

 

  The Power control switch is located on the right side of the handlebar. 

  When the battery at “R” position has completely run down, turn the power control switch to the “L” 

position to engage Pedal Activated Power. And recharging the battery “R”. 

  R position: The battery on the right side of the bicycle. 

  L position: The battery on the left side of the bicycle. 

  If the Twist is stored with the battery in place, turn the power control switch to the “OFF” position. 

Leaving the power switch in the “L” or “R” position while stored or parked will result in rapid energy 
loss. 

  If left unattended for 5 minutes, Twist will go into sleep mode. Simply reset the power to reactivate 

the Twist.   

Procedure (CS Model) 
1. Turn the power control switch to the “OFF” position 

                                           

                             

After 1~2 seconds 

2. Turn the power control switch to the “L” or “R” position again reset operation 
 
 
Procedure (CS Lite Model) 
 
1. Press the ON/OFF button 

 
                            After 1~2 seconds 
 

2. System reset
