with a pin to activate the self-diagnostic check.
Push and hold Self-Diagnostic switch, the
small black rubberised button located to the
left of the LED string/energy indicator (Fig.
7C). Release pressure on the button after
hearing a long beep, indicating Self-Diagnostic
check is ready to be performed. To perform
diagnostic check, follow the directions below:
•
Brake Actuated Motor Shut-Off-Pull on each
brake lever individually. If functioning, a
beep will occur each time the lever is pulled.
• Speed sensor: With the support stand in the
down position, lean the bike over slightly until
the rear tyre comes off the ground. Pedal the
crank arm to get the rear wheel turning. If
speed sensor is functioning, an audible beep
will sound repeatedly as the magnetics on
the magnetic “pie” plate are detected by the
sensors until the wheel stops. Stop the rear
wheel with the rear brake. Do not place the
tyre back in contact with the ground while the
rear wheel is moving.
• VPC Throttle: Rotate the right-hand twist
grip. The VPC-throttle functions properly if all
LED’s light up from 1 to 5, depending on how
far the VPC-throttle is turned up. Should one
LED be skipped or fail to light up completely,
your dealer needs to be contacted.
• Torque sensor: Place Lafree on its support
stand. With one hand, put light pressure on
either pedal while holding the rear tyre with
the other hand and rotate the crank arm
forward until an audible beep is heard.
Some or all of the LEDs may illuminate
depending on how much pressure (torque)
is being applied.
CAUTION: If any of these features fail the
diagnostic check, take your Lafree to an
authorised Lafree dealer immediately.
Operating Lafree with the Energy Set on, but
with any or all of these features inoperable
could cause severe damage to the electronic
circuitry and could cause you to lose control
and fall.
To a) cancel Self-Diagnostic mode, b) re-set
Self-Diagnostic mode, c) to turn on Lafree’s
power assist features after using the Self-
Diagnostic mode - turn the ignition or the
safety switch to the OFF position, then back to
the ON position.
WARNING: Never ride Lafree in the
Self-Diagnostic mode as it could cause
severe damage to the electronic
circuitry. Lafree’s power assisted pedal
and VPC Throttle will not work while in
the Self-Diagnostic mode.
7.5 Light Emitting Diode (LED)
Energy Level Indicator
Available energy is indicated via a Light
Emitting Diode (LED) string, located on the
top front of the motor housing. When fully
charged, all five LEDs will be illuminated.
LEDs will only illuminate when ignition is on.
As energy is used, fewer LEDs are
illuminated. When only one lit LED remains,
energy level is one percent. If energy level
drops below one percent, motor will
automatically shut down and one LED will
flash. If motor shuts off and single LED begins
flashing, turn ignition to OFF. Do not operate
electric functions until at least a 40 percent
charge (three LEDs illuminated) has been
attained. Charge time for this level is
depending on age of battery and how many
times battery has been charged/discharged.
See Section 6 for more information on battery
charging times.
