SECTION 4: Important Instructions
Safeguard your battery to insure continued high performance. It should be recharged after each use.
The normal full-cycle battery life, if it is continuously discharged and recharged, is between 300–1000
cycles (depending on which battery came with your bike) after which the storage capacity of the battery
will gradually decline.
CAUTION! Fully charge the batteries before the first use!
Failure to do this can result in decreased battery performance for the life of the bike. Fully charge the
battery each time you use the bike.
Battery performance is affected by the temperature and is generally better in warm temperatures.
When the temperature is below 32º F (0º C), the battery current may decrease by a third. Consequently,
the travel range on a full charge in cold environments is much less, but will return to normal when the
temperature is back to room temperature.
Frequent stopping and starting, riding uphill, traveling against a strong wind, starting from a standstill,
riding on rough or muddy roads, and carrying more than one person or heavy loads will consume extra
battery power and shorten the range.
A few tips to prolong the battery life during these conditions is as follows:
Frequent braking – try to look ahead and coast rather than frequently stopping and starting.
Riding uphill or against a stiff wind – pedal to supplement the battery power
When starting from a standstill, use the pedals to help bring you up to speed.
When the battery meter indicates the voltage is low, switch to manual power and avoid using the
battery, so you don’t shorten the battery life.
To prevent premature failure of your battery and for your warranty to remain in effect on your battery;
YOU MUST CHARGE THE BATTERY AT LEAST ONCE PER MONTH
Always turn off the bike before and during charging to prevent serious damage to the controller and to
the batteries!
This electric bicycle can be used in the rain. However, the motor and other electrical parts must not be
submerged in water. The controller, motor and other electrical devices may be short circuited causing
damage, which is NOT covered by warranty, and creating possible dangerous situations.
DO NOT use chargers or other components other than that which has been approved by this company.
This company is not responsible for damages caused by the use of other products not specifically
designed and tested for use with this electric bike.
