Read This First: Safety and Compliance with the Law
Congratulations on your purchasing of your new e-bike. Your new e-bike is an excellent
piece of personal transportation equipment that will give you good service for many years.
Before you start using your e-bike, we want you to be aware of a few important points.
Please read this section carefully.
● Observe Laws Regarding the Use of Battery-Operated Bicycles
Your e-bike is designed and manufactured to meet safety requirements as a battery-
operated bicycle. However, state and local laws governing the use of battery-operated
bicycles on public roadways, parks, and other open areas may differ. Please check
with your local authority before using your e-bike in public areas.
● Observe Laws Regarding the Use of Bicycles
Note that all laws regarding the use of bicycles in public areas, such as those
mandating the use of helmets and the use of infant seats, will automatically apply for
e-bikes. Check with your local authority on what restrictions might apply.
● The Lithium-ion Battery of Your e-Bike
Your e-bike is equipped with the latest battery technology. The lithium-ion battery is
much lighter than lead- or nickel-based batteries that are being used in some older
models.
● Your First Ride
Please be VERY CAREFUL when you are ready to get on your e-bike for the first time
because that the e-bike moves significantly faster than a regular bicycle at active power-
assisted mode. Take your e-bike to an area with a lot of open space before you start.
Do not start pedaling hard as soon as you get on the e-bike (as you normally would be
with a regular bicycle), as the e-bike will accelerate under pedal-assist mode and you
may be unprepared for the sudden increase in speed. However, after a few times, you
will enjoy using the pedal-assisted function.
