Securing Tab

7
If your BATRIBIKE is not in use for an extended period it is
imperative that you charge the battery before storage and then
charge the battery once a month to prevent deterioration.
When not in use, store the battery in a warm, dry place.
If Lithium batteries are left flat for an
extended period then they may no
longer be functional and a new
replacement will be required.
With correct User Care as outlined above your battery should have a lifetime of
around 1000 charges.
FAILURE TO FOLLOW
THIS PROCEDURE WILL
INVALIDATE YOUR
BATTERY WARRANTY
Plug the charger into the mains socket and switch on at the wall outlet.
The lights on the charger will illuminate after a few seconds.
The RED light indicates that mains power is applied. The
other light will show ORANGE/RED whilst charging is taking
place. This may take up to six hours for a flat battery.
When the battery is charged the ORANGE/RED light will
change to GREEN.
Once charged, switch off at the wall outlet and unplug. Unplug the charging lead
from the battery and slide the cover back over the charging socket.
NOTE: If the battery is charged and the charger left switched
on for an extended period the charger will enter a low power
state, indictaed by both the RED and ORANGE/GREEN LEDs
flashing slowly. Switch off and unplug as above.
Alternative Charger Type
An alternative type of charger may be supplied with one light instead of the two
described above. In this case the light is RED when Charging, and GREEN
when the charge cycle is complete.
The battery does not have to be completely discharged before it is recharged.
The Lithium battery has no "memory" and therefore can be charged at any time.
It is perfectly acceptable to recharge the battery after a short ride so that the
battery is fully charged before the next ride.

PERFORMANCE *
*Please remember that the above values are provided as a guide. Due to manufacturing tolerances
the speeds and distances may vary.
Weather and terrain will affect the performance. In hilly areas or when the bike is heavily loaded
there will be a significant increase in the power used from the battery and hence the range will
decrease accordingly. A lightly loaded bike will achieve higher performance levels.
(These results were obtained by test riders in optimal conditions - 75kg rider, level ground, no wind).
There are 3 levels of pedal assistance from the
motor. Using the ASSIST button you can select from
L (Low) M (Medium) and H (High).
Pedal Assistance
20+ Miles
LEVEL
PEDAL ASSISTANCE FROM THE MOTOR
Provides maximum power when negotiating
hills and head winds.
Great when needing to simply get from A to B
as fast as possible.
HIGH
ASSIST
ASSIST
ASSIST
ASSIST
Pressing the button will scroll through the levels. Pressing the
ASSIST button when in H (High) mode will return to L (Low) assist.
The motor will then be activated upon pedalling. There is a rotation
sensor located near the crank which senses when the pedals are
being used.
The speed and power will vary as the level is changed. Refer to the
table below
EXAMPLE OF USAGE
Up to 40 miles
MEDIUM
LOW
Range Not Tested
Normal Use Mode.
This is the level to use for everyday cycling.
Gives good performance whilst maximising
usable range per charge.
Best for everyday use.
Use this lower power level when negotiating
busy cycle paths and crowded areas. Also use
when setting off and gradually increase through
the levels for a smoother performance.
Ideal for negotiating obstacles.

11
No Assistance - Normal Pedal Bicycle
If you plug in the battery but do not press the power button on the
display your Batribike will now act and feel like a normal bicycle.
This is useful when you are feeling fit at the start of a journey or
using your bike for exercise purposes. Power is still only a button
press away.

12
The throttle is available all the time the power is switched on at the
handlebar display.
The throttle can be used whilst pedalling in any of the assist modes
to give extra help as required.
The throttle is not limited by the assistance level selected and is
available to give up to maximum power at all times.
Use the throttle control gently. A small twist will apply a small
amount of power. Twisting more will increase the power until the
control is fully rotated when full motor power will be applied.
Throttle assistance can also be used without pedalling.
A handy way of using the throttle is to pull away from junctions, or
when starting on inclines as the rider will pull away easier and is
less likely to wobble. It can also be useful when used to pull out
and overtake slower cyclists smoothly and quickly.
Care should be taken not to twist the throttle when mounting/
dismounting the bicycle. It is good practice to turn off the power
before getting off or on the bike also to hold one or both of the
brakes to maintain stability. Holding the brake cuts the power to the
throttle and will stop the bike moving if the throttle is accidentally
twisted.
It is not advisable to twist the throttle and then release the brake as
this will cause a power surge which may cause damage to the
bicycle and/or risk of personal injury.
Using the throttle at maximum level at all times will use more
battery power than when using it with discretion.
Using the Throttle - Country Specific
PLEASE NOTE:
The throttle control is not activated for some countries due to legal
restrictions. Please refer to your dealer for help and advice.

13
BS EN15194 Compliance
The BATRIBIKE LS range conforms to BS EN15194.
For the British market, the addition of a throttle control has
rendered this not compliant in some countries.
●You are recommended to seek advice from the relevant
authorities in the country you are visiting before travelling.
STANDARD BICYCLE FUNCTIONS
Gears—3 Speed Nexus Hub
Gear number 1 is low and makes it easier to pedal (for hills and rough terrain).
Gear number 3 is high and helps you to go faster (for use on level ground).
To change gear use the selector mounted
on the left handlebar. Twist the inner
portion of the handlebar grip to change up
or down through the gears. The gear
number is displayed in a small window as
shown above.
Braking
To stop, release the throttle and pull the brake levers.

14
Lights
Lights are provided on your BATRIBIKE bicycle. These are power efficient
LED units which achieve a long life on each set of batteries.
SAFETY FEATURE - The power for the
front and rear lights is kept separate from
the main power supply so that in the event
that the battery is exhausted you will still
have lights for safety.
The front light is powered by 3 AAA size batteries
and is switched on by the black push button switch
at the rear of the unit.
To replace the batteries simply twist the lens anti-clockwise and pull free.
There is a small warning light on top of the front lamp unit. This lights to show
that the batteries are getting low and should be replaced.
The rear light requires 2 AA batteries. You will require a small Philips
screwdriver to take off the red lens for battery replacement. It is switched on and
off by the small red push button switch on the underside of the unit.

15
Centre Stand (where fitted)
To put the bicycle on its stand:-
1) While holding the bicycle upright, place your foot behind the
stand.
2) Pull the bicycle backwards until the stand is in place.
Make sure bicycle is on solid ground.
Side Stand (where fitted)
To put the bicycle on its stand:-
1) While holding the bicycle upright, push the stand to its full
extent.
2) Lean the bicycle over onto the stand.
Make sure bicycle is on solid ground.
Do not sit on the bicycle whilst the stand is down. It is
designed to take the weight of the bicycle and not the
additional weight of the rider.

16
Quick Release fittings for Seat Height Adjustment
With the locking lever in the loose position, tighten the nut until finger tight. The
final tightening is done by moving the lever to the locked position. To undo move
the lever to the loose position to enable height adjustment.
Loose Locked
Adjusting the Handlebars
The handlebars can be adjusted for height
and angle to suit the rider. Hex keys, (not

these adjustments.
Adjust the height by loosening 'A' and
pulling the handlebar stem upwards. Take
care not to exceed the limit marked on the
stem.
Adjust the rake angle by loosening 'B'
and gently moving the bars to the
required angle.
Adjust the bar rotation angle by
loosening with the two 'C' bolts shown.

MAINTAINANCE SCHEDULE
Maintaining your bicycle ensures you’ll get the most out of every ride and out of
the entire life of your BATRIBIKE electric bike. How much of your bike’s
maintenance you can do yourself will depend on your knowledge, skill,
experience and whether you have the necessary tools for the job.
Beyond this manual, it is good to consult your BATRIBIKE dealer for advice if
you are at all unsure about any of the procedures described. Normal
maintenance is not covered under the warranty and this service may be
chargeable.
Before every ride
●Mechanical safety checks, (see notes on page 2). Use a fully
charged battery. Visual inspection for damages.
After every ride (or WEEKLY)
●Clean the bike, including chain rings and sprocket. Clean and
lightly oil the chain and gears.
●This must be carried out after every ride in dusty, marine or
winter conditions due to the salt laden atmosphere.
Every 20 - 30 hours of riding (or MONTHLY)
●Squeeze the brakes and rock the bike to check for any
looseness of the headset or brake mechanisms with each forward of
backward movement. If any are loose, have your dealer check it.
●Lift the front wheel and turn handlebars left and right to check for
tightness of steering. If tightness is detected it may be necessary to
lubricate bearings and/or adjust the headset.
●Check and adjust the brakes, replace if worn out.
●Squeeze spokes in adjoining pairs between your thumb and
index finger.
They all should have the same tension. Have your dealer re-spoke or
true the wheel if necessary.
●Check cables for rust, kinks and fraying, have your dealer
replace them if necessary.
●Check bottom bracket for play and adjust if necessary.
●Check wheel bearings for play and adjust/lubricate if necessary

19
After 3,000 miles (5,000 km) (or YEARLY)
●Hub motor and general inspection
We recommend you arrange to have a thorough inspection of
your bicycle by a BATRIBIKE dealer. This includes opening up
the hub motor to inspect and lubricate the gears.
Tyre Pressures
The tyres should be pumped up to within the range stated on the sidewall.
This should be regularly checked as running with the correct pressures
will ensure maximum range from the battery.
Repairing a punctured tyre
If you have a punctured tyre, we recommend that you get a specialist to carry
out the repairs. You can always of course consult a specialist and carry out the
repairs on your own if you are confident that you have the necessary skills.
As there are no electronic components on the rear wheel, its removal follows
standard procedures as with normal bicycles.
Removing the Front Wheel
If you need to remove the front wheel, for
example, to replace the front tyre, then the
motor can be unplugged to aid disassembly.
The plug is located on the right arm of the
forks as shown, (Left).
Take care when re-assembling the plug to
ensure that the two arrows are aligned
correctly.
Remember to ensure that the cable is
suitably secured to the bicycle frame
upon re-assembly.
Be mindful of the tightening assembly sequence of washers, nuts and spacers.
