Your electric-assisted or e-bike works reliably under all weather
conditions, although an excessive water exposure could damage
the electronics and/or the electric motor.
Never touch the electronics on the e-bike with wet hands and
never touch the plus and minus poles at the same time, as the
strong short-circuit current could cause injury.
The batteries used are subject to weather influences. Cold
temperatures can affect battery performance. The performance
of the batteries can decrease by up to 1/3 in below-zero
temperatures. Please remember that your range will decrease if
you ride in winter. When the temperature reaches 20°C/68°F
again, the batteries will revert to full performance.
Never attempt to repair electronics on the e-bike yourself,
always ask a specialist in the event of a problem.
Before we begin
In order to maintain and enjoy your e-bike, please read the operating instructions carefully before
getting started. Familiarize yourself with the safety regulations and all the controls to guarantee
safe, trouble-free riding .

RANGE
STARTING, PARKING AND RANGE
Maximizing your range
Many factors influence the performance of the battery which
has impact on your range.
Charge the battery completely before a long ride.
More energy is required on uneven roads and hilly conditions.
Frequent speed changes use up more energy.
Bigger loads use up more energy.
Check your tire pressures and always keep your e-bike clean
and well lubricated, as this helps save energy.
Make sure that both wheels can move freely. It helps save
energy if the brakes are not rubbing or sticking. Check your
brakes regularly.
Vigorous pedaling helps save the battery and increases your
range.
Parking
Avoid parking in rain or snow.
If your e-bike gets wet, dry it off with a dry towel at the end of
your ride
Take your first ride in an open space so you can get used to the
acceleration. Once you are used to the bike, you can enjoy the
assistance of the electric motor in normal riding conditions.
The control unit has a low-voltage protection system which
automatically switches off the power assist if the battery voltage
falls below a certain level.
Do not use power assist on slippery or dirty ground.
Switch power assist off if the drive is not behaving normally to
avoid damaging the electrical components.
Never take passengers with you or overload your e-bike. This
could damage the electrical components.
Concentrate on the road in front of you. Avoid potholes, gravel,
wet road markings, oil and other obstacles.
Be careful when braking. Always brake with the rear wheel brake
first, as it is less aggressive than the front wheel brake.
WARNING!
Be very careful the first time you ride
your e-bike! In power mode, the
e-bike is considerably faster than a
normal bike!
YOUR FIRST RIDE
Please read the operating instructions
carefully and completely. Check all parts
before your first ride.
BATTERY CHARGING INSTRUCTIONS
Warning!
Always switch the power off before charging the battery.
Never cover the battery charger.
Place the charger on an even surface.
There are two ways to charge the battery:
Charging when removed from your e-bike.
Charging directly on your e-bike.
Warning!
Beginning the charging process:
Connect the charging plug on the charger to the charging socket
on the battery and then connect the 120V plug to the socket.
Ending the charging process:
First disconnect the 120V plug from the main and then the
charging plug on the charger from the charging socket on the
battery.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE BATTERY AND CHARGER
Your e-bike has a lithium-ion battery. Never charge the battery
with a replacement charger which is not designed for this
purpose. Using an unsuitable charger on a lithium ion battery
could lead to overheating, fire or explosion.
Keep the battery charged when your e-bike is not in use. You
can charge the battery separately or directly on the e-bike.
Never charge the battery near flammable materials.
Never charge the battery near infants and small children.
Remove any valuable objects from near battery while it is
charging.
The charging time depends on how full the battery was. If the
battery was completely empty, it will take 4 to 6 hours before it
is fully charged. When the battery is fully charged, the LED on
the charger switches from red to green. You should now discon-
nect the charger from the battery.
Never leave the charger connected to the battery for an
extended period. Lithium-ion batteries have very low discharge
rates, they do not need to be connected to the charger all the
time (charging overnight is safe).
It is normal for the battery and the charger to get warm while
charging.
The battery is half charged when new. Please charge it as
quickly as possible. The first three times, charge the battery for
at least 12 hours.
There is a control light on the charger. The red control light
means that the battery is charging, the green one means that
the battery is fully charged (the green light is also lit if no
battery is connected).
Please make sure that the charger voltage matches your local
voltage.
The charger must always be used indoors.
Charge the battery out of reach of children.
Do not open the charger, it is a high-voltage unit.
Never touch the two battery electrodes at the same time as this
could cause an electric shock.
Never take the battery out of the e-bike while it is charging.
Please charge the battery for at least 2 hours every 2 months.
Do not allow liquids or metals to penetrate into the charger.
Never use the charger in oily, dusty, dirty or damp environments.
Avoid direct sunlight.
Avoid using the charger in thunderstorms.
Always use the charger in cool, well ventilated places.
Never use the battery near heat sources such as open fires or
flames.
Do not hit the battery and avoid strong vibrations.
The warranty is voided if the battery is opened or damaged.
Your e-bike is designed for normal road traffic and for a single
person.
Never use your e-bike for extreme maneuvers, such as extreme
off-road use, jumps or excess load. This could damage the ebike
and cause serious injuries.
WARNING!
Do not over-lubricate. If oil gets onto
the wheels or the brake pads, this
reduces the performance of the
brakes and increases braking
distances.
MAINTENANCE
Do not clean your e-bike with a pressure washer. Water could
penetrate into the motor causing damage to the electrical
components.
Only use a damp cloth with a neutral detergent to clean your
e-bike. Do not use acidic detergents as these could damage the
frame or components of your e-bike.
In everyday use, please keep the control unit clean and dry, keep
it away from water, vibrations and dirt as these could damage
the controller.
The drive chain can throw excess oil onto the wheels, wipe any
excess oil away immediately. Never oil the pedal step. Wash
excess oil from the wheels or brake pads with soapy water. Dry
the e-bike before using it again.
