ADVICE FOR INCREASING BATTERY LIFE PER CHARGE:
Your BRICKS bicycle is equipped with a 504Wh battery that has a battery life per charge of up to 80 km.
In order to conserve your battery's energy and thus increase the range of your bike, we would like to offer
you a few tips.
•
At start-up:
set power assistance to position 1 and choose a medium development. If you course is
uphill, position the chain on the largest sprocket and use the 6 km/h position.
•
In traffic jams:
set power assistance to position 1 and your chain on small or medium development
according to the frequency of the stops you will have to make.
•
Hill start:
before you stop, set your chain to small development, and set the power assistance
according to the incline.
•
Climbing a tougher hill:
if you are climbing a hill and the speed reduces too much, you can opt for
more powerful assistance. You will then feel the power assistance increase. If this is insufficient, set
your chain on the small development (your energy consumption will be greater and your battery
range will be reduced).
•
Route without stops:
if your route has no obstacles (no traffic lights, traffic jams or rough roads),
you can set your bike to cruising speed. Pick your assistance level and set your chain to the large
development. This will allow you to go faster while saving energy.
•
Descending:
you stop pedalling (freewheeling) or you pedal normally but without effort while
adapting your speed selection and you let yourself move steadily.
•
To prolong battery power:
start up in position 1. Once your bike has started, set your chain to
the large development. Maintain a constant speed. Your battery charge will last longer.
