3. Use the “+” or “–” buons to select the desired pedal assist
level.
Fig. 18 - Selecng Pedal Assist Level
The levels are between:
0 Throttle Operation Only
ECO Battery Efciency
1, 2, 3 Speed Ranges
S Sport
R
Race Track Mode
(Refer to local laws & regulaons before using)
The LCD will indicate the pedal assist level that you select.
Once you start pedaling, the controller will make the motor turn
accordingly. Use the ECO mode for your rst test ride to get
used to your e-bike.
The e-bike will now maintain a constant pedal assist unl:
• The brakes are applied
• The “+” or “-” buons are pressed to adjust the pedal
assist level
• You stop pedaling
• The baery pack runs down completely
NOTE: If the baery pack level is low, we recommend selecng
a lower assist level. Keep in mind that the baery management
system can deacvate the pedal assist support to protect the
baery pack level from geng too low. Be sure to charge the
baery pack fully before each ride.
4. To turn the headlight on or o, press and hold the “+”
buon for 3 seconds.
5. Press and hold the controller power buon to turn o the
controller.
6. Turn o the baery power buon aer each ride to avoid
draining the baery pack.
THROTTLE OPERATION
Use the throle and pedal assist at the same me or you can
just use the throle feature to ride the e-bike. The throle
control is located on the right-side handlebar next to the LCD
screen.
To use the throle feature:
OPERATION
1. Turn on the baery and the controller. See “Using the Pedal
Assist Control System” on page 17.
2. Set the LCD to the desired seng. If you select “0,” the
pedal assist control system is unavailable.
3. Rotate the throle control to increase the e-bike speed.
READING THE BATTERY PACK LEVEL
The LCD display indicates the baery pack’s voltage. The
voltage can vary greatly depending on a variety of condions.
Fig. 19 - Baery Level Indicator
The voltage will decrease temporarily when using the throle
and/or pedal assist. The voltage may drop when going uphill
regardless of the charge state. This is normal operaon. The
voltage will be lower if the baery pack has been in a cold
environment.
To more accurately read the baery pack’s charge state, let o
the throle. The display lights will stabilize aer 1 second to
indicate the baery pack’s level.
When the baery pack level is low and it reaches:
• 2 Bars - Recharge baery pack soon. Select a lower pedal
assist level.
• 1 Bar - Stop using the throle; recharge the baery pack.
UNDERSTANDING THE BATTERY PACK RANGE
All electric bicycles have a riding range that can vary greatly
depending on riding style, terrain, re pressure, temperature,
payload and wind. Aer a few rides, you will get a sense of the
electric bicycle’s range capability.
FACTORS THAT WILL DECREASE YOUR RANGE
• Rapid acceleraons using the motor
• Uphill riding
• Heavy payloads
• Headwinds
• Underinated res
• Extreme hot or cold weather
HOW TO INCREASE YOUR RANGE
• Start by pedaling instead of only using the motor.
• Avoid rapidly accelerang using the throle.
