Page 4 Operation of Your Electric Bicycle
Turning Your Bicycle On
Before you can use the electric features of your bicycle, you
must turn the battery on. In order to do this, locate the buttons
on the battery pack, at the rear of the bicycle, and press the
power button as indicated by the red arrow.
The power indicators between the two buttons will light up
when the battery is on. While the battery is on, you may press
the button indicated by the brown arrow to turn the rear light
on.
Then, you can turn the bicycle itself on by locating the control
module on the handlebars and holding the centre button on
the control module down.

Page 12 Charging
It is recommended that the battery be charged each day that
the bicycle has been used. Overnight is good. If the bicycle has
not been used for several weeks, top it up until the red light on
the charger turns green. We recommend not leaving it on
charge for more than 24hrs in case of power surges, lightning
strikes, etc.
When charging always plug the item into the battery first, then
into mains power before switching it on. When charging is com-
pleted, switch off at mains before unplugging the charger from
the battery. Warning lamp should show red when charging, and
green when fully charged.
Remember to switch off at mains, disconnect from wall socket
and only after that, disconnect from the battery.
Store the charger in a cool, dry place.

Using the Pedal Assist System
While the bicycle is on, you may use to motor to assist you
while you pedal. When you pedal, the motor will kick in to as-
sist you. You can adjust how powerful this assistance is using
the control module. For more information on how to use the
control module, see the next page over for full instructions.
Depicted below is a basic summary of the control module.

Adjusting the Headstem
If the wheel and the headstem become misaligned, you can re-
adjust them. After you unlock adjustment, you can re-adjust
the headstem. Slide a hex key (aka Allen key) into the hole indi-
cated by the large red arrow and use it to loosen the hex bolt
inside.
Then, you can adjust the headstem. Try to ensure that the han-
dlebars are perpendicular to the wheel for the best effect.
Once the headstem has been adjusted, re-tighten the hex bolt
until the headstem is secure.
Note: If the handlebars are not firmly secured in place while
adjustment is locked, unlock adjustment and slightly tighten
the hex bolt indicated by the small orange arrow. Then, firmly
push the latch down until it locks and check to see if the han-
dlebars are now secure. Only tighten the bolt in small incre-
ments, checking each time to see if the handlebars are secure.

dlebars must be unlocked. This is done through the following
simple 3-step procedure:

finger to push up the lock on the latch while you (3) pull the
latch up to release the adjustment.
Adjusting the Handlebars
Once you have unlocked adjust-
ment of the handlebars, you may
