LOVE FOR ELECTRIC DRIVE
ENG I1www.lovelec.cz
The story of the LOVELEC brand began in 2006, when a passionate cyclist, a fan of adrenali-
ne experiences and one of the ex-owners of the family company KOEXIMPO, spol. s r.o.
Stanislav Glac was enthusiastic about the motorcycles. At that time, after a knee surgery,
Stanislav could not devote himself to his hobby – cycling and began looking for the other
options. The ideal alternative for him within the rehabilitation was riding an e-bike. While in
the West the market for the e-bikes developed very quickly, in the Czech Republic the e-bikes
were still almost unavailable. That's when Stanislav realized that he wants to be there when
people in the Czech Republic will be able to ride further, higher, faster or with less effort than
on a regular bike, thanks to the electric drive (but with the constant pedalling). With the great
enthusiasm he began a long and thorny journey to achieve one of his dreams. Thanks to his
diligence and perseverance, the KOEXIMPO company started trading the e-bikes in the year
2008 and in the year 2010 a new Czech brand of the e-bikes was established – LOVELEC.
This is how Stanislav laid the solid foundations on which his sons have been building for 2020
(under the constant supervision of their father).
The name LOVELEC was created by combining two English words: LOVE and ELECTRIC,
which in free translation means "love of electric ride". As LOVELEC operates in many European
markets, the name is clear and universal for everyone.
The –LOVELEC + logo symbolizes the battery, which is an essential part of every e-bike.
The philosophy of the LOVELEC brand is simple – we want to give people the joy of riding
an e-bike. To enjoy riding an e-bike and the joy to last for as long as possible, we apply our
golden rule – the uncompromised quality at a reasonable price.
We use the components from the top world manufacturers on our e-bikes. We cooperate with
the development with the world's best experts in the industry. We test each model carefully
before it is placed on the market (not only in the laboratory conditions, but also in the most
demanding terrains).

INTRODUCTION
2I ENG www.lovelec.cz
Riding an electric bike is good for your health – it has a positive influence on the cardiovascular
and musculoskeletal system, decreases the danger of the diabetes and high blood pressure. It
also improves human balance, coordination, movement, strength and endurance, lowers the
stress hormones and supports well-being of our mind.
By riding an e-bike you also help protect the environment by lowering your carbon footprint,
as an e-bike does not emit fumes or CO2to our atmosphere.
Please pay attention to your health and safety, but also pay attention to the
health and safety of the other road users by wearing a helmet and follow
the rules of the road.
Every LOVELEC electric bike (which essential part consist of the rechargable battery) is delivered
with the accessories below:
■charger (EN, CE, 42 V, 2 A, approximate time of charging is 4–6 hours),
■keys to the battery case lock (2 pieces),
■instructions for use involving the warranty card.
Please check if you are in possession of all of the accessories above. If not, please contact the
dealer.
These instructions are universal for all of the LOVELEC e-bikes. The essential part of them is the
attachment for the individual type which consist of the e-bike schematic and description,
description of the rechargable battery (insertion and removal, LED charge indications),
description and functions of the display and the control panel and declaration of conformity.
These instructions include basic information regarding LOVELEC e-bikes, its usage and maintenance.
Please contact your dealer for further information if you have any other questions.
Please contact your dealer in case of loss of the instructions, which include also a warranty
card.
The instructions are also available in an electronic format on demand (please email us at
info@lovelec.cz).

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
ENG I3www.lovelec.cz
LOVELEC e-bikes belong to the PEDELEC category (Pedal Electric Cycle), which you can
describe as a bicycle driven by electric drive by usage of the pedals. The schematic with the
description of the purchased LOVELEC e-bike is to be found in the attachment to these instructions
(at the end).
LOVELEC e-bikes meet every requirements of the applicable legal standards for the bicycles
with the auxiliary electric drive EPAC (Electronically Power Assisted Cycles). They are
equipped with the auxiliary electric drive with the maximal permanent performance 0,25 kW
which can cause the sound intensity level of < 55 dB. The electric performance is interrupted
if the cyclist stops pedalling or if the e-bike exceeds the 25 km/h speed limit. The motor is
charged from the Lithium-Ion rechargable battery of the total voltage of 36 V.
LOVELEC e-bikes are designed for the private and commercial use.
■Do not lend the e-bike to those, who are not accustomized with its usage. Mishandling
the e-bike might lead to the invalidation of the warranty.
■You can achieve much higher speed than on an usual bike, therefore please ride it
carefully, so you have it under control in any circumstances.
■Do not drink alcohol before riding. Even small amount causes slower reactions and
decreases the ability to control the e-bike and is illegal.
■The electromotor assistance can be easily adapted by the control panel (see
attachment). By disabling the assistance (or after depleting the battery) you can use
your e-bike as an usual bicycle – it does not put any resistance and it is fully functional.
■Please contact your dealer in case of any strange behaviour, failure or breakdown
of the e-bike or its components.
■Please contact your dealer in case of unclearness regarding the usage, maintenance
and functions of the e-bike.
Please read the whole instructions carefully to become familiar with the usage of
the e-bike before the first use.

BEFORE THE FIRST RIDE
4I ENG www.lovelec.cz
■Mount the pedals. Pedals are marked as „R“ (right) and „L“ (left). Left pedal has the
opposite (left) screw thread. After installing the pedals make sure, that they are
sufficiently tightened.
■Insert the rechargable battery into the case/frame/on frame of the e-bike (depen-
ding on the individual model – see attachment). The battery is secured by the lock.
Keys to that lock are unique to every single e-bike, therefore the battery is protected
from stealing.
■Every e-bike is equipped by unique pair of the keys to the battery lock. Keys serve
to locking and unlocking the battery or to pull out the battery from its case (depen-
ding on the individual model – see attachment). For safety reasons please keep one
key everywhere with you and the other/s to be kept in a safe place in case of the
loss or damage to the keys. Do not ride the e-bike with the keys inside the lock – it
can cause harm, theft or loss.
■Check the correct wheel mounting to the frame and to the fork. In case of the
incorrect installation it can cause harm.
■Please be aware of the correct tire inflation – optimal pressure value is stated on
the tires. Incorrect tire inflation can cause damage of the whole e-bike which can
lead to sufficient harm being caused. It also lowers the e-bike range and decrease
the adhesion of the wheels to the ground.
■Leave the shift adjustment to the professional bike service.
■Leave the brakes adjustment to the professional bike service.
■Please secure the pistons in the brake caliper by the plastic insertion if you are
unmounting the wheel from the e-bike with the hydraulic brakes, which prevents the
unwanted aeration (pulling the brakes while missing the wheels).
■Damaged wheel rim replace with the new one as soon as possible. The rims can be
a part of the brake system and can cause harm if damaged.
Please familiarize yourself with the basic information regarding the assembling
of the e-bike if you do not have any experience regarding this or you not sure
how to properly use the e-bike.

■Take in your consideration, that the e-bike is heavier than an usual bike.
■During the manipulation with the e-bike make sure, that the electric system is turned
off, so you won´t cause an uncontrolled movement.
■Please beware damaging the cables during the manipulation with the e-bike.
■Avoid the overloading of the electric motor (repeated ride through a long and steep
hill). When overload, the motor can overheat. After overheating please wait for it to
cool down before further use.
■The e-bike can be used even during a moderate rain, but avoid leaving it in the open
spaces during heavy rain, snow or in a thick fog.
■Keep in mind locking the battery when parking the e-bike outside (if it is possible).
Secure the e-bike using a suitable lock for bicycles (not included).
ENG I5www.lovelec.cz
■Adjust the position of the saddle by pulling the seatpost up or down, so the leg on the
pedal in the lowest position is slightly bent and can reach the ground if you are
stopping. Thoroughly secure the seatpost clamp in the seatpost. Do not pull the
seatpost higher than indicated on in – it can cause saddle release, frame damage or
rider injury.
■You can adjust the suspended fork, if equipped, by the regulator on the fork crown. By
moving the regulator in direction of „+“ you increase the rigidity of the fork, by moving
it in direction of „–“ you decrease it. You can fully block the fork if it is equipped with
the lock. Air forks allow to customize its rigidity by setting the air pressure in the
pressure chamber by the help of the special air fork pump. Please keep your fork
gliders clean. During post-season service, coat the rubber dusters with silicone oil
(prevention of swelling).
■Please use the front and the back lights while riding in the night or under impaired
visibility. Reflectors and the other safety features keep clean and uncovered.
OPERATING THE E-BIKE – see attachment.

■Set the „1“/“LOW“ level of the assistance (based on the individual model – see
attachment).
■Move off carefully – as on an usual bicycle. We recommend to move off on the first
derailleur gear (the biggest cog).
■You will acknowledge the assistance of the drive in the moment. Try ride it, turn it and
brake it. As you will stop pedalling or start braking, the motor will disable itself.
Repeat this several times, until you become familiar with the behaviour of you e-bike.
■Increase the motor assistance gradually.
■Slow down or lower the motor assistance during turns. The pedalling through the
sharp turn on the higher assistance level can lead to a possible accident.
■The one-time charge range is influenced by the terrain surface, the weather conditi-
ons, the rider weight, the inflation of the tires, the economy of the gear shifting and
the rate of the motor utilization through the drive etc.
■Repeated braking and starting, ride against the wind and long steep hill ride have
a negative influence on the e-bike range.
■The e-bike´s ideal range is to be achieved by the style of the ride and the gear
shifting in the moderate weather conditions (temperature above 10 oC). Usage in
lower temperatures can decrease the e-bike range.
E-BIKE RANGE
6I ENG www.lovelec.cz
The e-bike range per one charge depends on many factors and cannot be
determined specifically. The main parameter influencing the e-bike range is the
capacity of the rechargable battery (higher capacity = greater range).
We recommend to execute the first ride in the place with the minimal operation
and in sufficient space if you are not familiar with the usage of the e-bike.
THE FIRST RIDE

■The first charging time is 6–8 hours. The following charge to the full capacity will
take approximately 4–6 hours.
■The charger connector is to be put into the battery, afterwards connect the charger
to a 230 V network secured with at least 5 A. Disconnection should be done in the
opposite direction.
■The charge status is indicated by the LED light on the charger. The red light indicates
charging, green light indicates fully charged.
■The battery is equipped with the automatic charge control system, after a full charge
it will turn itself off automatically.
■The battery can be charged inside the carrier/in the frame/on the frame (depending
on the individual model – see attachment) or you can charge it independently.
■Do not charge the battery near the flammable materials or heat sources.
■During charging do not expose to sunlight and choose a dry environment with a good
air circulation (do not cover the charger or the battery).
■Make sure, that during charging there are no signs of the metallic components that
can cause electric shortage.
■The charger and the battery may heat up, it is not considered as a failure.
■Do not open, disassemble or modify the charger.
THE BATTERY MAINTENANCE
ENG I7www.lovelec.cz
The Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion) rechargable battery is included as the essential part of the e-bike. Its serial
number, to be found on the label, is stated in the warranty card. This type of the rechargable
battery is outstanding thanks to its longevity, capacity and mass. The Li-Ion batteries do not
have a memory, therefore they do not have to be formatted and you can charge it anytime.
For charging the battery use ONLY the charger delivered with the e-bike. The
usage of a charger other than the original can cause damage and invalidate
the warranty.

■The rechargable battery capacity lowers gradually with age and the number of
charges.
■The charge status is indicated by the LED lights (see attachment).
■The ideal storage conditions: dry place, the temperature 10–15 oC, maximum 70%
air humidity.
■Remove the battery from the e-bike and store it fully charged (see above) if you are
not using the e-bike for the long period of time.
■The rechargable battery is gradually discharging itself when stored, therefore it should
be charged once in 2 months.
■The charge status should not drop under 20 % (red light indication). We recommend
to charge the battery regularly.
■Keep the battery clean and dry at all times.
■Protect the battery from humidity, low temperatures and heat sources.
■Do not open, disassemble or modify the battery.
■Protect the battery from shocks and bumps.
■Do not store the battery near sources of heat or open fire.
■Do not exhibit the battery to the influence of a strong magnetic field.
■Remove the battery from the carrier/frame (depending on individual model – see
attachment) if it is deformed, smells or has manifested any other unusual behaviour
– contact the dealer.
■Do not keep the rechargable battery uncharged, it can cause damage. Avoiding
this rule leads to invalidation of the warranty.
■Do not use the battery to charge other devices.
■Do not leave the battery plugged into the powered charger for longer periods of
time (more than 2 days).
■Do not put any metallic components into the battery connector – it can cause an
electrical shortage.

RECYCLING OF THE ELECTRIC EQUIPMENT, BATTERIES
AND RECHARGABLE BATTERIES
12 I ENG www.lovelec.cz
The symbols illustrated on the right side, which can be stated
directly on the device, its packaging or inside of the Instructions
for use or the warranty card, inform the consumer, that the
stated electro device, battery or rechargable battery is not to
be placed into the municipal waste. The incorrect liquidation of
such a devices may lead to a penalty of the consumer in the
accordance with the law
We focus on the environmentally friendly behaviour. Every e-bike is conside-
red as an electronic device with the rechargable battery as its essential part,
therefore we care about the environmental impact.
WHY RECYCLE?
We produce more than 50 million tons of the electro waste (electro devices, batteries, rechar-
gable batteries) in the whole world yearly. The majority of it can be recycled (used for further
production). Instead, it ends up in municipal waste landfill or even in nature. Some of the
substances contained in those devices, specifically mercury (Hg), lead (Pb) and cadmium
(Cd), are particularly dangerous for human health and the environment. The devices that
contain those elements are marked by the symbol of the individual chemical element. By
recycling the electro devices, batteries and rechargable batteries we can lower the
environmental impact and protect the natural resources.
