As a quick reference, each mode is associated with a color. When you change modes, the
color on the display changes.
(+) Button - Increases the amount of support.
(-) Button - Decreases the amount of support.
On the remote, after reaching the strongest or weakest mode, the system will not
continue to switch. To reduce from TURBO to SPORT to ECO to OFF, you have to
press the (-) button. To increase from OFF to ECO to SPORT to TURBO, you have
to press the (+) button.
The Smart Control mode is only accessible when the bicycle is connected
to Mission Control and Smart Control mode is turned on. When more or less
motor support is needed or desired, Smart Control can be bypassed for a
short period of time by toggling between the OFF / SMART / TURBO modes.
Smart Control will then automatically reactivate after a short period of time.
Smart Control mode can only be turned off in Mission Control.
WALK ASSIST: This provides motor assist at 6 km/h / 3.7 mph to help push
the bicycle uphill when walking.
