CAUTION
Using the electrically power assisted cycle
All users must have read and understood the instructions and information outlined in the manual.
If, during assembly, any factory defects are detected, certain steps are unclear or issues with assembly or adjustments occur,
do not ride the vehicle and contact your dealer or visit www.argentobike.it for technical support.
CAUTION
Risks associated with using the electrically power assisted cycle
Despite the application of safety devices, to ensure safe use of the electrically power assisted cycle, all the safety provisions
reported in this manual must be observed.
Always maintain concentration while riding the bike and do not underestimate the residual risks connected with use of the
electrically power assisted cycle.
CAUTION
Responsibility
The rider is required to use the electrically power assisted cycle with utmost diligence and in full compliance with the road
regulations and all cycling rules in force in the country of use.
It is important to bear in mind that when out in a public space or on the road, even when the instructions in the manual are
observed to the letter, the rider is not immune to injury caused by infractions or inappropriate actions taken towards other
vehicles, obstacles or persons. Misuse of the item or non-compliance with the instructions provided in this manual may cause
severe injury.
Riders must also ensure that the electrically power assisted cycle is kept clean, in perfect working order and serviced. They
must diligently carry out the safety checks which are their responsibility, as well as preserve all the documentation about
product maintenance.
Riders must carefully assess any weather conditions which could make it potentially dangerous to use the electrically power
assisted cycle.
This product is a vehicle, therefore, the faster is it goes, the longer the braking distance required. We, therefore, recommend
moderating your speed and maintaining an adequate braking distance if you are riding in adverse weather conditions and/
or heavy trac.
The braking distance increases on wet, slippery, muddy or icy roads and the tyre grip decreases significantly with the risk of
the wheels skidding and loss of balance compared to dry roads.
It is, therefore, essential to ride the bike with greater care, maintain a suitable speed and safety distance from other vehicles
or pedestrians.
Take extra care when riding on unfamiliar roads.
For your safety, we recommend wearing suitable protective equipment (helmet, knee and elbow pads) to protect yourself
from any falls or injuries while riding the bike. When allowing others to use the bike, ensure that the rider wears the safety
equipment and explain how to operate the vehicle. To avoid injury, do not allow other persons to use the item if they do not
know how to use it.
Wear shoes before using the item.
The bike has been designed to allow the load of a maximum overall weight (rider and any load being carried) that does not
exceed the value indicated in the product data sheet.
Avoid using the product, under all circumstances, if the total load transported exceeds the recommended weight to avoid the
risk of damaging the integrity of the structural and electronic components of the bike.
The electrically power assisted cycle (EPAC), as specified in the provisions of the current reference standard EN 15194, is a
means of transport intended to transport one person only.
The transport of a passenger is only permitted within the framework of the regulations in force in the country where it is
ridden regarding: the minimum age of the rider, maximum age of the passenger transported, provision of legally approved
and authorised passenger transport devices.

05
It is the user’s responsibility to ascertain the suitability of the devices used for passenger transport in terms of construction
characteristics, safety systems, anchoring systems and their installation and assembly on the electrically power assisted cycle
based on its structure and within the permitted load limits (maximum load supported by the bike and by the luggage rack
supplied, if present).
The user is also responsible for the provision and installation of devices used for the transport of objects and animals (e.g.
luggage racks, luggage bags, storage baskets, etc.) in compliance with the legally approved and authorised provisions in the
country of use and the limitations of the structure within the permitted load limits (maximum load supported by the bike and
by the luggage rack supplied, if present).
CAUTION
The installation of accessories and equipment on the bike, not only aect the performance of the bike and how it is used, but
can also cause damage if they are unsuitable, thus compromising correct operation and safety conditions during use.
For information on the supply and installation of equipment deemed suitable for the bike, please contact your authorised
dealer or specialised operators.
Warnings for users
• The electrically power assisted cycle can only be used by adults and skilled teenagers.
• Do not take alcohol or drugs before riding the electrically power assisted cycle.
• This electrically power assisted cycle model is designed and built for outdoor use on public roads or cycle tracks.
• Do not attempt to make the electrically power assisted cycle exceed the performance levels for which it was designed;
do not ride on surfaces with a slope greater than 10%, on uneven and rough ground (bumpy road surfaces, with potholes,
depressions, obstacles).
• Never ride the electrically power assisted cycle with any of its parts disassembled.
• Avoid uneven surfaces and obstacles.
• Ride with both hands on the handlebars.
• Before use, replace any worn and/or damaged parts and check that the safety devices are working properly.
• Keep children away from plastic items (including packaging materials) and small parts that may result in suocation.
• Supervise children to make sure they do not play with the product.
• Remove any sharp edges caused by misuse, breakage or damage to the item.
• Pay particular attention when riding the bike near pedestrians and make sure you slow down and signal your presence to
avoid frightening them when arriving from behind.
• Assemble the item correctly.
CAUTION
How to use
The electrically power assisted cycle is a bicycle fitted with an auxiliary electric motor that is activated only when the pedals
are turned.
The motor does not, therefore, replace the work performed by your leg muscles, but assists them so they work less hard by
enabling the electrical and electronic components supplied with the product, i.e. the battery, handlebar controls, sensors and
control electronics (control unit).
More specifically, the electric motor is powered by a battery and operated by a unit that controls the delivery of power and
additional thrust provided to assist the eort made by the rider’s muscles when pedalling based on the real-time reading of
values detected by a series of pedal-assist sensors (PAS). These sensors are positioned on the outside of the frame or inside
the components and are based on the control parameters entered by the user via the handlebar controls (display).
In accordance with the provisions of European Directive 2002/24/EC, the electric motor supplied with the electrically power
assisted cycle, is only activated to assist the user when pedalling and will be disabled upon reaching a speed of 25 km/h.
The electrically power assisted cycle has been designed and manufactured to be ridden outdoors on public roads and cycling
paths, on both tarmacked surfaces and/or ground that is suitable for the specific technical and structural features of the bike.
Any changes to its construction may compromise the behaviour, safety and stability of the electrically power assisted cycle
and may cause an accident.

06
Any other types of use, or any extensions of use beyond the one intended, do not correspond to the intended use attributed
by the manufacturer and the latter, therefore, disclaims all liability for any resulting damage.
The autonomy of the battery supplied with the electrically power assisted cycle and, therefore, the relevant distance data
estimated in km, may vary significantly depending on the specific mode of use (total load transported, how hard the rider
pedals the bike, level of electric pedal assistance detected, how often the rider departs and restarts), the mechanical and
electrical conditions of the product (tyre pressure and wear, battery eciency level) and external influences (slopes and road
surface, atmospheric conditions).
Before each use, carefully check that the brakes are working correctly and are not worn; check the tyre pressure, the wear of
the wheels and battery charge status.
Regularly check that the tightness of the various elements secured by bolts. The nuts and all the other self-tightening parts
can become loose so, these components need to be periodically checked and tightened.
Like all mechanical components, the item is subject to wear and tear. Dierent materials and components may react to wear
or stress fatigue in a variety of ways. If the useful life of a component is exceeded, it could break unexpectedly and injure the
user. Any cracks, scratches or changes in colour in areas subject to high levels of stress indicate that the life of the component
has been reached and must be replaced.
CAUTION
Permitted speed
The maximum allowed legal speed is 25km/h.
The control unit has been configured to prevent any change to the maximum speed permitted.
Any changes to the control unit which have not been authorised by the manufacturer will exclude the latter from any liability
related to injury caused to persons and/or damage to property, and will invalidate the product's warranty terms and conditions.
DANGER
Risk of injury
Ride at a speed and behave in keeping with your ability; never use the electrically power assisted cycle over 25Km/h as this
could cause serious damage and injury to yourself or other people.
CAUTION
Place of use
The electrically power assisted cycle can be used outdoors providing there are no adverse weather conditions (rain, hail,
snow, strong wind, etc.).
Maximum permissible temperature: +40°C
Minimum permissible temperature: +0°C
Maximum permissible humidity: 80%
The bike must be used in a place with a flat, compact, smooth tarmacked surface, with no potholes or depressions and free of
obstacles and patches of oil.
The place of use must also be well lit by either natural or artificial light in order to ensure that the route and controls of the
electrically power assisted cycle can be viewed correctly (recommended lighting 300 to 500 lux).
Improper use and contraindications
The actions described below, which obviously cannot cover the entire range of potential possibilities of “misuse” of the
electrically power assisted cycle, are to be considered strictly prohibited.

07
DANGER
It is strictly prohibited to:
• Use the electrically power assisted cycle for uses other than the ones for which it has been manufactured.
• Ride the electrically power assisted cycle if the rider’s weight exceeds the permitted limit.
• Use the electrically power assisted cycle under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

5. Assembly
Carefully remove the bike from the packaging* and remove the protective material taking care not to damage the relevant
aesthetic parts or force the cables and pre-assembled components.
*The bike must be removed from the packaging by two adults to ensure that it is not damaged and avoid the risk of injury
and/or crushing.
Positioning the handlebar stem
Raise the handlebar stem until it is vertical; tighten the handlebar stem using the locking device indicated by the letter A.

13
Positioning the handlebars
Position the handlebars on the handlebar attachment taking care to centre and adjust them correctly so they slot onto the
controls, tightening the handlebar attachment lever (tightening device between the handlebars and handlebar attachment).
Handlebar stem plate assembly/disassembly instructions for handlebar installation/removal (if necessary - optional)
Remove the handlebar stem from the top end
of the handlebar attachment as follows:
Remove the screw number 1 and then the
lever number 2.
Then proceed to remove the metal plate
number 3 and finally remove the metal plate
number 4 by sliding it sideways.
Proceed to reassemble the previously
removed handlebar attachment plate in the
reverse sequence.
Make sure to tighten properly to avoid
dangerous situations while riding.

14
Installing and positioning the seat post
Insert the seat post into the seat tube of the frame and,
after positioning the saddle correctly, secure the seat post
firmly using the special clamping device (seat post clamp)
on the frame.
DANGER
Minimum insertion seat post insertion limit
For structural and safety reasons, it is strictly forbidden, when using the bike, to extract the seat post from the seat tube of
the frame beyond the limit indicated on the latter to avoid the risk of causing any structural fractures to the bike and incurring
serious injuries.
The seat post is deemed to be correctly and safely positioned inside the seat tube of the frame by inserting it so that no
markings and/or graphic indication of the minimum insertion limit can be seen; see:
Correct position Incorrect position
Installing the pedals
Locate the right pedal (marked with the letter R) and left pedal (marked with the letter L).
Fit the right pedal (R) by inserting the threaded pin of the pedal into the corresponding crank arm on the right side of the bike
and screwing it clockwise (turn it towards the front wheel) until it is tightened using a 15mm wrench.
Fit the left pedal (L) by inserting the threaded pin of the pedal into the corresponding crank arm on the left side of the bike
and screwing it anticlockwise (turn it towards the front wheel) until it is tightened using a 15mm wrench.

15
CAUTION
Verify and regularly check that the various bolted elements, fastening screws, quick releases and pass-through pins are
correctly tightened, and perform an overall check to ensure that all the parts are in order.
The nuts and all the other self-tightening parts can become loose so, these components need to be periodically checked and
tightened.
The recommended tightening torques for fastening the specific parts/components on the bike (e.g. handlebars, handlebar
attachment and stem, saddle, saddle clamp, wheels, etc.) can be identified depending on the relevant elements. An average
torque of 20Nm can be used for all other fastenings.
Verification of the correct tightening of the parts/components through lever systems (quick release, handlebar attachment,
seatpost collar, etc.), in the absence of technically precise indications of the relative values, can be done by testing that the
relative part/component being fixed is not mobile and/or unstable if subjected to a vigorous attempt to remove and/or extract
(handlebar, seatpost channel, wheels, etc.) and by verifying that the tightening lever has adequate resistance during the
closing phase (such as to leave a mark on the palm of the hand used for lever tightening, so-called "imprint on palm") and,
after closing, requires a considerable force to be exerted to allow relative opening.
Rear light
The rear LED light is already installed on the electrically power assisted cycle and located as shown in the product overview
(Chap. 3) of the corresponding version.
Switching on and o can be done manually using the appropriate button on the light itself. .
