WARNING
Additional precautions regarding electrical components
Using a damaged battery or charger can create additional bike damage or a fire hazard. Stop using your
battery and charger and contact ICONIC EBikes immediately if any of the following occur: (1) Your charger's
flexible power cord or output cable or any of the electrical cables on your bike is frayed, has broken
insulation, or any other signs of damage, (2) Your battery or charger is physically damaged, non-functional,
or performing abnormally,(3) Your battery or charger experienced a significant impact from a fall or crash,
with or without obvious signs of damage, or (4) Your charger becomes too hot to touch (it's designed to
get warm with normal use), makes a funny smell, or shows other signs of overheating. Store any damaged
battery or charger in a safe location and, as soon as possible, recycle or otherwise dispose of it according
replacement battery or charger.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, connect the batery charger only to a standard 110/220-volt standard home
power outlet circuit in accordance with the National Electrical Code, NFPA70.
CAUTION
How Pedal Assist Works
The rider can engage the pedal assist system (PAS) while pedaling, and it will call up assistance from the motor to help propel
the bike forward. Pedal assist uses a cadence sensor built into the drive train of the bike. The sensor detects when the rider
revolves the pedal and signals the electric motor to provide the level of pedal assistance that has been selected. The Iconic
Cruiser comes with pedal assist modes 0-5.
This ebike is equipped with two ways for a rider to use power assistance from the motor to propel the bike forward: a
pedal assist system (PAS) and a thumb throttle.
HOW THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM WORKS
How the Throttle Works
The throttle is located on the right side of the handlebar. The rider can use it with a push of the thumb to propel the bike
forward without pedaling. Please note thumb throttle will not work in (PAS) Mode 0.
To engage the throttle while riding, slowly and carefully press down on the throttle. The more you press, the more powerfully
the throttle will propel the bike forward. Once you release the throttle or apply the brakes, the throttle will no longer propel the
bike forward. Always keep one hand on the brake lever and be prepared to squeeze the lever to disengage the throttle if
needed. Please note: before mounting or dismounting the bike, the power should be turned off to prevent accidentally
engaging the throttle.
Please Note: before mounting or dismounting the bike, the power should be turned off to prevent
accidentally engaging the throttle.
CAUTION
Do not touch the brake rotor
Touching the brake rotor, which has sharp edges and can get very hot while you're riding, can cause
serious injury, slicing damage, or burns. The brake rotor heats up from normal friction when the brake pads
press against the brake rotor to slow or stop the bike. Touching the brake rotor with bare skin can also
transfer natural oils to the rotor, which can decrease braking performance. Do not touch the brake rotor,
especially when it's in motion or after you've been riding your bike. Touch the brake rotor only for
necessary maintenance when it is cool, not moving, and while you are wearing gloves or using other
appropriate protective equipment.
WARNING
Warranty update
Notwithstanding the warranty information in the manual, the warranty period begins at the date of receipt of this
ebike by the customer. The latest version of the warranty terms is available at

General Information
NOTICE: If you do not have the experience, skill, and tools to complete assembly and fit, lCONIC EBikes highly recommends
having a certified, reputable bike mechanic complete these procedures as well as any future adjustments or tuning.
NOTICE: A critical aspect of assembling your bike by lCONIC EBikes is securing the front wheel and checking the tightness
of the rear wheel axle nuts. All Cruisers by lCONIC EBikes use a quick release front wheel mounting mechanism and the
rear wheel is bolted on. These mechanisms may become loose or unsecured during shipment or over time. The torque and
security of all wheel mounting hardware should be inspected upon arrival and on a regular basis. Both wheels need to be
properly examined and secured before operating your bike.
Correct assembly and fit are essential elements of ensuring your bicycling safety, performance, and comfort. Even if you have
the experience, skill, and tools to complete these essential steps before your first ride, ICONIC EBikes recommends having a
certified
；
reputable bike mechanic check your work.
Assembly and Fit
Before all rides, wear a helmet and ensure you have all required and recommended safety equipment and are following all laws
pertaining to using an electric bike in your region. For example, these laws may specify the need for mandatory equipment, use
of hand signals, and where you can ride.
Mandatory Equipment and Use Locations
The use of non-original components or spare parts can jeopardize the safety of your ebike, void your warranty and, in some
cases, cause your ebike to not conform with laws pertaining to your bike.
Changing Components or Attaching Accessories
2
The replacement of original components or installation of third-party accessories or accessories from lCONIC EBike
not explicitly recommended for your bike model is at your own risk. Using aftermarket accessories or components
that have not been tested by lCONIC EBikes for safety and compatibility may void your warranty, create an unsafe
riding condition, or result in serious injury or death.
Always check the condition of your bike before you ride in addition to having regular maintenance performed. If you are unsure
of how to conduct a complete check of the condition of your bike before every ride, you should consult a certified, reputable
bike mechanic for assistance. See the Pre-Ride Safety Checklist for more information (Pg. 38).
Safety Check Before Each Ride
The electrical system on your ebike offers various levels of power assistance and lighting for different operating conditions
and user preferences. It is critical that you familiarize yourself with all aspects of your ebike's electrical system and check to
see that it is working correctly before every ride. The front and rear brake levers contain safety power cutoff switches, which
disable the hub motor's assistance when applied, and both levers should be checked for correct operation. The throttle should
provide smooth acceleration when gradually applied. If the throttle, brake lever cutoff switches, pedal assistance, or lighting
are functioning abnormally, intermittently, or not working, please discontinue using your ebike immediately and contact
[email protected] for assistance.
Electrical System
Ensure brakes are working correctly, all braking system components are free from damage, and properly secured. When you
fully squeeze the brake levers, ensure neither the front nor rear brake levers touch the handlebar. Take your bike to a certified,
reputable bike mechanic to have the brakes repaired if you find a problem.
Brakes
3
Your wheels should always spin straight and must be repaired or replaced if they wobble side to side or up and down when
spinning. If your wheels become untrue or spokes loosen, which can happen with normal use, we recommend that a certified,
reputable bike mechanic performs all wheel tuning and truing operations on your bike. Do not attempt to true wheels or tighten
spokes unless you have adequate knowledge, tools, and experience. Ensure the tires and inner tubes are in good working
condition without any visual damage and have the correct amount of air pressure. Always replace tires and inner tubes with
punctures, cuts, or damage before you ride. Tires without the correct amount of air pressure can reduce performance,
increase tire and component wear, and make riding your bike unsafe
Tires and Wheels
Quick release levers are located on your ebike for securing the seat post and the front wheel to the bike. These provide
convenience to the user since they allow the front wheel to be removed and the seat post to be adjusted without tools. Since
quick release levers can be loosened during transportation, or accidentally between or during rides, it is important that you
regularly check to ensure these components are properly secured.
Quick Release Levers
Ensure all hardware is secured and all approved accessories are properly attached per the specific component manufacturer's
instructions. It is good practice to look over all hardware, straps, and accessories before each ride and if you do discover
something is wrong or find something you are not sure about, have it checked by a certified, reputable bike mechanic.
Accessories, Straps, and Hardware

Ensure the handlebar and handlebar stem are properly aligned, fitted to the user, and secured to their recommended torque
values. Handlebar grips should not move easily on the handlebar end. Loose, worn, or damaged handlebar grips should be
replaced before you ride and can be purchased from www.iconicebikes.com. The seat and seat post should be properly
aligned, fitted to the user, and the seat post quick release should be properly tightened, fully closed, and secured before
riding.
Handlebar, Grips, and Seat Adjustments
Ensure the battery is adequately charged and operating properly. Ensure the battery charger is unplugged from the outlet,
battery, then stored in a safe location before you ride. The battery MUST be locked onto the frame battery mount properly
before use. Do not operate the electrical system if the battery is removed.
