2. Safety instructions
2.1 Regulatory use
The Electric Motion ETrek has been designed and built to withstand
mechanical stress resulting from road and off-road use.
The ETrek model is assembled in order to be homologated and thus
has all the equipment necessary for the vehicle's circulation on roads
opened to traffic. It is therefore forbidden to modify the accessories
present on the motorcycle when it is purchased. Electric Motion is not
liable for any modifications to the accessories installed on the
motorcycle.
Use only Electric Motion parts. These parts have been tested
and approved by Electric Motion. Under no circumstances should you
try to replace the motorcycle components such as the battery pack or
the engine with components of another brand, at the risk of cause
irreversible damage to your vehicle.
Electric Motion does not assume any responsibility for the adaptation
of unapproved parts.
2.2 Operating information
In order to guarantee safe operation, it is forbidden to carry out any
modification on the vehicle.
By way of example, it is thus formally prohibited to use the vehicle if
the vehicle, or one of its components, is not in a proper maintenance
state or if it is used outside the scope of the intended use. It is also
forbidden to open the motor or the battery pack.
Any modification carried out on the vehicle by the customer
does not render Electric Motion liable and voids any form of
manufacturer's warranty.
Do not use the vehicle under the influence of alcohol,
medication or drugs, or if you are not physically or mentally able to
drive.
When using the vehicle, some parts move (chain, wheels) and
become dangerous for the user. It is important to take steps to avoid
unnecessary risks.

2.3 Protective clothing
To contain the risks resulting from the use of the ETrek motorcycle,
on road or off road, it is necessary to be equipped with all compulsory
protective clothing.
For all trips, all the users of the motorcycle must wear the necessary
equipment (helmet, boots, gloves, trousers and jacket equipped with
protective means).
Failure to wear safety clothing or deteriorated safety clothing is
a serious safety hazard and can result in serious injury or death to the
driver and passenger of the motorcycle.
Like the driver, the passenger must also carry all the necessary
protections.
Only use protective clothing that is in perfect condition and
complies with the legal requirements of the country of use.
2.4 Environment
In order to guarantee the durability of motorcycle driving, it is
necessary to respect the rules of goodwill on the road with other
users, motorized or not. Ensure that you remain within the legal
framework of the use of a motorcycle. Be respectful to the
environment and road users, and take into account the rights of other
road users.
When the motorcycle parts are disposed of, be sure to comply with
the recycling regulations of the country of use, in particular the
battery pack.
Electrical components (motor, battery, etc.) and electrical
appliances (battery charger) should not be treated as household
waste and require strict recycling.
If you have any questions about the rules for recycling, contact
Electric Motion Customer Service.
2.5 Location of important labels
Safety instructions are present in various places on the motorcycle.
They are used to guard against certain risks associated with the
maintenance of the motorcycle and to preserve the physical integrity
of the motorcycle, its driver and its passenger.

Warning label
Never remove the warning labels. They allow the driver to avoid
injuring himself by exposing himself to a danger that can not be
recognized without the presence of these stickers.
2.6 Fire hazard
As long as the battery pack remains in good working condition, there
is no particular fire hazard on this vehicle. However, if the vehicle
catches fire, it is necessary to inform the fire brigade that the fire
originated from an electric vehicle with a lithium-polymer battery.
When the battery pack is damaged, it may present a fire hazard.
If the battery pack is damaged, contact Electric Motion customer
service promptly.
2.7 Fall or accident
A fall or a road accident can damage the motorcycle significantly.
After a fall, make a complete inspection of the vehicle to make sure
that the users of the motorcycle do not expose themselves to any

3. Important notes and general information
3.1 Emission information
The development of the motorbike ETrek by Electric Motion has made
it possible to obtain a clean bike that does not emit any harmful
particles for the environment. It therefore has no exhaust or
evaporation emission.
This bike does not use gasoline, engine oil or any other liquid fuel to
operate.
3.2 Manufacturer's warranty and legal warranty
All the work prescribed in the maintenance guide must be carried out
exclusively with a professional in order to retain the warranty right.
The warranty is cancelled in the event of damage resulting from
manipulation or modification on the vehicle made by a person not
certified by Electric Motion.
For additional information on the manufacturer's warranty and how
to obtain it, contact Electric Motion customer service.
3.3 Autonomy of the vehicle
The autonomy of the ETrek model is more representative when it is
reduced to a number of kilometers travelled with a full charge of the
battery. This term is called the “range” of the motorbike.
It is then easy to understand that the range of the vehicle depends on
how to use it.
The more flexible the pilot, the greater the range of the vehicle.
There are many factors affecting the range, such as speed,
acceleration, number of regenerative braking, weather conditions,
tire pressure and the payload of the assembly moved by the
motorcycle.
For the first use of your ETrek, you are advised to remain cautious to
become fully aware of the range of your vehicle according to the
driving style you are using.
After being able to make your own idea about the potential of the
ETrek model, you can adapt your piloting according to the desired
ranges.
The range values in this manual are measured according to
different standards, which may vary depending on the country of use.
In order to improve the range of your vehicle, all these characteristics
must be taken into account:

3.4 Transport of the vehicle
The transport of the motorcycle can be carried out with the help of
an approved trailer or a utility vehicle.
It is important to ensure that the motorcycle is securely fastened
before transporting it on the public road.
The use of certified straps to maintain the motorcycle is
recommended to avoid any accidents related to the loss of the vehicle
on the public road.
3.5 Spare parts and accessories
For safety reasons, we recommend that users of ETrek only use spare
parts and accessories authorized and recommended by Electric-
Motion and have them fitted by a professional.
The company Electric Motion must decline any responsibility in case
of physical deterioration because of products not approved by the
brand.
For information on spare parts and their installation, contact the
Electric Motion customer service or on our website www.electric-
motion.fr.
3.6 Lifetime optimization
In order to optimize the life of the vehicle, it is important to perform
the maintenance listed in the user manual on time and in hours.
Maintaining maintenance intervals is important to keep a vehicle in
good working condition and to avoid early wear.
On the other hand, incorrect adjustment of the chassis results in
premature wear of the vehicle.
It is important to refer to the vehicle maintenance manual.

ELECTRIC MOTION

3.7 Power supply
The Electric Motion ETrek is powered with a lithium-polymer battery
with a nominal voltage of 51.8V and a capacity of 52Ah.
It is possible to remove and reassemble the battery pack during
certain maintenance operations. To carry out these operations, it is
important to refer to the relevant chapter.
3.8 External Materials, Parts and Supplies
To maintain your vehicle, it is important to use parts and consumables
(lubricants and maintenance products) in accordance with the
specifications given in the user manual.
3.9 Operation under extreme conditions
The ETrek is not sensitive to water and rain. However, care must be
taken to ensure that the water level does not exceed the foot-rest.
In the event of difficulties encountered on a passage of water
point (vehicle stopped), it is necessary to turn off the motorcycle to
avoid a short circuit or a breakdown of the motorcycle.
The ETrek can be used over a wide temperature range: -15°C to 55°C.
The battery life of the Etrek model depends on the operating
temperature:

Use of the vehicle in extreme conditions (sand, mud) leads to
premature wear of the motorcycle's consumables (chain, brake pads,
various bearings). It is then necessary to carry out the checks and the
maintenance operations more often than prescribed in the manual of
use.
3.10 Reception of the motorcycle
When receiving the ETrek model, it is necessary to perform some
operations to make the motorcycle usable (assembly of protected
parts during transport). Please refer to the corresponding chapter (8).

7. Controls and Components
7.1 Front/rear braking system and adjustment
The brake lever is located on the handlebar on the right side. A CBS-
type system is used to distribute braking between the front and rear
of the vehicle.
The front brake lever acts only on the front brake.
The rear brake lever acts on the rear brake AND the front brake.
It is best to get used to this braking system at low-speed before using
it.
Before each use, check the condition of the brake system. A
faulty braking system makes you vulnerable as well as the other road
users.
7.2 Throttle grip
The throttle grip is located to the right of the handlebars.
Before each use, check the correct rotation of the throttle grip
and make sure that it comes back correctly during rotation to prevent
accidents.
