Information on the function and range of your
FLYER'smotorislistedbelow:
Function
The motor starts working as soon as you start
pedalling when one of the assistance modes has
beenselected.
The performance of the motor depends on sev
-
eral factors:
•
Theforceusedwhilepedalling.
The assistance is more gentle when you
pedal with low force than when you pedal with
higher
force,e.g.whileridinguphill.However,
this increases the power consumption and
decreasestherange.
• The assistance mode
The higher the level of assistance, the more
power
themotorwillprovide.However,
high motor performance means high power
consumption.Thelowestassistancemode
provides the least assistance but also the
longestrange.
Range
Any specied range information is usually ob
-
tained
underoptimalconditions.Rangesachieved
undereverydayconditionswillusuallybeshorter.
Pleaseconsiderthiswhenplanningyourroute.
The range depends on many factors. These in
-
clude battery capacity, motor assistance level
selected, geographical conditions, road surface,
driving style, environmental temperature,
the
weight of the rider, tyre pressure and the technical
stateofyourFLYERe-bike.
