aventon PACE 500 - Error Detection

When the useful life of a component is surpassed it can cause unexpected loss of function. This
can result in serious injuries or even death. Therefore, pay attention to wear characteristics such
as cracks, scratches, or changes in the color or operation of components which could indicate
useful life has been exceeded. Worn components should be replaced immediately. If you are
unfamiliar with regular maintenance, a certified, reputable bike mechanic should be consulted.
Your bike from Aventon Bikes is equipped with an error detection system integrated into the display and
controller. In the case of an electronic control system fault an error code should display. The following
error codes are the most common and can aid in troubleshooting. If your bike has an error code displayed
at any time it is recommended that you cease operation and contact Aventon Bikes immediately.
Components of PACE are subject to higher wear when compared to bikes without power assistance. This
is because PACE can travel at higher average speeds than regular bicycles and has a greater weight.
Higher wear is not a defect in the product and is not subject to warranty. Typical components aected are
the tires, brake pads and rotors, suspension forks, spokes, wheels, and the battery.
