Power assist mode description
How to shift through power assist modes
Switch through power assist modes using
the controller
’s
and buttons.
The LCD Display unit will show which
mode you’re in.
Use a power assistance
level according to the current riding
conditions. Use a high assistance level
when going uphill or against a head wind
and switch to a lower assistance level if
you are riding on a flat road or with a tail
wind.
The
operating
range
(battery
autonomy) of your bicycle is greatly
influenced by the power assistance
level you chose and how you manage it during
your ride. For more details on how to optimize
your operating range, see the following section on
operating range.
Mode 1
–
Minimum assistance
Compensates for the power assist
system
’s own
weight without reaching
high speed. Use on flat surface with low
wind resistance. Operating range is at its
highest.
Mode 2
–
Low assistance
Helps to reach a steady, slightly higher
speed than normal. Use on flat surface
with low to medium wind resistance. High
operating range.
Mode 3
–
Intermediate assistance
Maintains a steady speed on variable
incline surfaces with medium wind
resistance. Optimal balance between
power assistance and operating range.
Mode 4
–
High assistance
Reach greater speeds. Use on long inclines
and against strong wind resistance. Expect
a reduced operating range if riding with
this assistance level for a long period.
Mode 5
–
Maximum assistance
Reach the highest speeds or get maximum
help to climb steeper inclines. Keep a
close watch at your battery capacity if
using this mode for a long trip.
