Instructions for Use
The Basics of Reading
• Whether you're new to cycling or an experienced rider, please take the time to read the
Manual before using PikaBoost for your cycling adventures. You can scan the QR code on the
rst page of the Manual to watch the related instructional videos. These contents can be found in
the "Suppo" section of livall.com or livall-PikaBoost.com. We will keep updating the content of
this manual, so please always refer to the latest version for accurate information.
• If your PikaBoost will be used by children, it's really impoant to make sure they know all the
safety information and how to operate it correctly. And don't forget, parents should always be
there to supeise them and make sure they stay safe during their ride. Safety rst!
Local Laws
The regulations regarding the use and operation of E-bike conversion kits may va depending
on the count, state/province, and city of residence. In many cases, the regulations for using
E-bike conversion kits are the same as those for regular bicycles.
However, each jurisdiction may have laws regarding permits and regulations for E-bike conver-
sion kits, areas where they can be ridden, minimum riding age, or required equipment (such as
helmets).
Riders are responsible for understanding the local regulations for using such products and
complying with them.
A Note About Warnings
• As you read this manual, you'll see gray warning boxes like this:
• The reason for these warnings is that we don't want you - or your loved ones, or your kit - to
get hu. So please pay attention to the warnings. It's our way of letting you know we care
about your safety.
This manual is not intended as a detailed user, seice repair, or maintenance
manual Please consult LIVALL technicians for seice, repairs, or maintenance.
Text in a gray box with the safety ale symbol will warn you about a situation or behavior
that could cause severe inju or death.
WARNING!
01

On Your First Ride
• Please be VERY CAREFUL when using the PikaBoost for the rst time on your bike, as it
signicantly increases the speed compared to a regular bicycle in AUTO cycling type. Before
staing your rst ride, make sure to switch o or put PikaBoost on standby mode and nd an
open space. Avoid pedaling hard as soon as you sta with PikaBoost engaged, as the bike will
continue to accelerate, potentially catching you o guard. However, after a few rides, you will
begin to appreciate the thrilling cycling experience that PikaBoost provides.
*Note that this is a general manual. LIVALL resees the right to make changes to products and
designs. The products you own may not have the same style as the pictures shown in this
manual.

Pre-ride Check List
Before Your Each Ride
Before staing your ride, peorm a safety check on a at suace away from trac. If any pa
fails the safety check, have it inspected and repaired before using the PikaBoost.
Safety Check
• Check if the locking knob is fully tightened.
• Check if the PikaBoost tire and the bicycle rear tire t properly.
• Check if the screws on the batte case have come o or are about
to come o.
• Check if the PikaBoost body cover is fully closed.
• Check if the batte level is sucient for this ride.
• Check if the brake controller is working properly. (By pressing the
brake handle, check if the brake indicator lights up in blue and if the
tail light respond with the corresponding ashing light.)
• Check if the magnets installed on the rear brake handle and front
brake handle (if any) are securely attached, and if the magnets are
misaligned or detached.
• Check if the installation position of the brake sensor can timely
detect the magnets.
• Check if the brake receiver can function properly and if it can
switch between riding mode and standby mode smoothly.
Steps Involved
• Check if the bracket is securely fastened to the bicycle seatpost and
if there is any looseness or displacement.
• Check if the orientation of the bracket aligned with the rear tire.
• Check if the screws on the bracket have come loost.

WARNING!

Impoant Safety Information
• PikaBoost Can't Protect you in an Accident
When using PikaBoost for cycling, the most common inju is falling down, which could be due to
not switching the riding mode of PikaBoost to standby mode when stopping. PikaBoost can not
avoid being damaged after a fall. If you experience any collision, impact, or accident, please
carefully check yourself for injuries, and then before using PikaBoost for cycling again, please
contact LIVALL technicians for online guidance to thoroughly inspect your PikaBoost.
• Know Your Limits
If you attempt to use PikaBoost beyond your ability range while cycling, there may be a ceain
level of danger involved. Please understand your cycling skill level beforehand and refrain from
using it beyond your personal capabilities.
• Lifespan
PikaBoost is not indestructible, and its pas will not last forever. The PikaBoost is made to
withstand the stress of "normal" riding because those stress is well-known and understood.
However, we cannot predict the forces that might occur if you use your PikaBoost in competition,
if you ride in extreme conditions, if it is involved in a crash, if it is used for rentals or commercial
purposes, or if it is used in other ways that apply high stress of fatigue loads.
With damage, the life of any pa can be drastically reduced and may fail without warning.
The safe life of a pa is determined by its construction, materials, use, maintenance, rider weight,
bicycle type, speed, terrain, and environment (humidity, salinity, temperature, etc.), so it is not
possible to give an accurate timetable for replacement.
Any crack, scratch, or change of color in a high-stress area indicates the pa (including the
bracket and housing) has reached the end of its life and should be replaced. If you are not sure or
you don't feel comfoable inspecting or repairing your PikaBoost, consult LIVALL technicians.
Regular maintenance, frequent inspections, and frequent replacement of pas are necessa for
safe use, high-peormance PikaBoost.
PikaBoost is subjected to wear and high stress. Dierent materials and pas may react to wear
or stress fatigue in dierent ways. If the design life of a pa has been exceeded, it may
suddenly fail.
WARNING!
This product is an e-bike conversion kit equipped with a removable lithium
batte as a power source. Before using PikaBoost for cycling, please read and
comply with the following instructions carefully.
04

• Handle with Care
PikaBoost components are especially vulnerable. The wiring, batte case, and brake controller of
PikaBoost can be easily damaged if handled incorrectly.
• Think Safety
Stay tuned to your environment and avoid dangerous situations which are usually obvious
(trac, obstacles, drop-os, and so on), but sometimes are not. Some of the high-risk stunts and
jumps seen in magazines or videos are ve dangerous, even skilled athletes get severe injuries
when they crash (and they do crash).
Modications to your PikaBoost can make it unsafe. Each pa of your new PikaBoost has been
carefully chosen and approved. The safety of accesso or replacement pas and especially how
those pas attach and inteace with other pas of the PikaBoost is not always apparent. For
this reason, you should only replace pas with original equipment or pas that are approved. If
you are not sure what pas are approved, ask LIVALL technicians.
Examples of modications include this paial list:
- Physically altering existing pas (sanding, ling, drilling, etc.)
- Purchasing and using lithium batteries that have not been approved by LIVALL
- Adding a motor or engine
- Installing accessories
- Changing pas
Failure to compatibility, properly install, operate, and maintain any component or accesso can
result in serious inju or death.
WARNING!
Changing the components with other than genuine replacement pas may compromise the
safety of your PikaBoost and void the warranty. Check with LIVALL technicians/retailers before
changing the components.
WARNING!
Any accesso or component attached to, on, or near a rotating wheel poses a risk of contact-
ing or stopping the wheel, leading to a crash resulting in serious inju or death. Before eve
ride check to ensure that all such accessories and components of PikaBoost are securely
mounted to your bicycle.
WARNING!
05

In non-riding conditions, be sure to use the APP or brake controller to switch PikaBoost to
standby mode to avoid triggering the PikaBoost motor and providing assistance to the bicycle
while walking, which can result in serious inju or death.
WARNING!
If your PikaBoost's controls are impaired or compromised due to the use of incompatible bikes,
accessories or components, the PikaBoost may stop unexpectedly, or you may lose control of
your bicycle and crash, resulting in serious inju or death.
WARNING!
If your PikaBoost's controls are impaired or compromised due to the use of incompatible bikes,
accessories or components, the PikaBoost may stop unexpectedly, or you may lose control of
your bicycle and crash, resulting in serious inju or death.
These include but are not limited to.
- An unauthorized or incorrectly mounted fender can cause the bike to stop suddenly.
- Mounting PikaBoost on an incompatible bicycle seat post (material, shape, and diameter)
may cause the seat post to break.
- When using the assistance riding mode, installing PikaBoost on a rear tire with a smooth
tread pattern may result in slippage.
WARNING!
Always take the batte case out of the PikaBoost and store it in a safe place when the
PikaBoost is not in use. Unauthorized use of your PikaBoost by others may result in serious
inju or death.
WARNING!
New components or accessories could inteere with the operation of your PikaBoost use, includ-
ing the power assistance level, brake sensitivity, and the tightness of the bracket. Always verify
that any new product your purchase for your PikaBoost does not inteere with these functions.
• Impoant Batte Information

remove/install the batte cell, please read the batte case installation and removal instructions
or related operation videos carefully before proceeding. Always be sure to follow the operation
tutorial and video, and do not damage the internal circuit or batte cell packaging, as it may
result in a sho circuit, batte damage, or even re or explosion. If the batte leaks or the wires
are damaged, please stop using the batte case and consult LIVALL technicians for repair.
06
