GENZE 2.0 - Regenerative Braking; Powering Down the Vehicle

the GenZe 2.0 to a complete stop without locking the wheels. Practice is strongly recommended to perfect safe
emergency stops. Before making a turn, reduce your speed. Try not to brake or close the throttle too quickly while
turning, or you may lose control.

Regenerative Braking
When the GenZe 2.0 is moving and you have rolled off the throttle, the regenerative (regen) braking feature
activates when either of the brake levers is squeezed. Regen braking takes some of the energy from the moving
GenZe 2.0 and turns it back into electrical energy. This energy is then stored back into the battery pack,
contributing to increased energy efficiency. A slight drag is felt when regen braking is activated. Regen braking
works in all drive modes, but it will be disabled if battery energy is greater than or equal to 95%.
Derating
Derating is a reduction of available power designed to protect your GenZe 2.0 electrical system. It may occur under
the following conditions: high ambient temperatures, low State of Charge, extended steep hill climbing, or overly
aggressive riding. This is normal. The vehicle will return to regular operation when the system has detected it is
safe to do so.

Powering Down the Vehicle
1. With the throttle in the closed position, put the Run/Stop Switch in Stop position. This switch can also be
used in an emergency to shut the motor off.
2. Put the GenZe 2.0 in Neutral.
3. Place the kickstand in the Down position.
!
Always turn the Run/Stop Switch to the Stop position, and put the GenZe 2.0 Direction Switch in neutral when
not actively riding. It is very easy to forget that the GenZe 2.0 is powered up because it is silent when inactive. An
accident could occur if it is left powered up while getting on or off your GenZe 2.0.
