2.5 Other provisions
The first thing to do when starting the use, is to check the presence and integrity of the protections and the operation of
the safety. If you find any defects do not use the pedal-assisted bicycle!
2.6 Unpacking and tuning
The pedal-assisted bicycle is delivered fully assembled and working.
2.6.1 Saddle adjustment
The pedal-assisted bicycle is delivered mounted and ready to use. Check the adjustment of the handlebar (which is aligned
with the front wheel) of the brake levers, of the saddle, in such a way as to guarantee a comfortable and safe use for the
user. The adjustment of the height of the saddle is an essential prerogative for the correct use of the pedal-assisted bicy-
cle. Incorrect adjustment can generate structural breaks to the frame.
Adjust the height of the saddle by operating the quick release mechanism (Ref. A - Figure 1).
Check that the mechanism is tightened before testing the seat and using the medium. Do not lift the saddle beyond the
limit sign placed in the tube (Ref. B - Figure 1).
GUARDS
It is strictly forbidden, therefore, to modify or remove the guards,
controls, labels and indication plates.

3. BICYCLE DESCRIPTION
3.1 General description
The pedal-assisted bicycle is designed and built to be used outdoors, on roads and private or public environments. In
particular, the components and the type of pedal-assisted bicycle, allow you to face routes with asphalted and unpaved
surfaces without particular roughness.
The pedal-assisted bicycle is equipped with a rechargeable battery and an electric motor, whose intervention takes place
only in conjunction with the pedaling and gradually stops as the speed of the vehicle approaches 25 km / h, and then stops
completely at that speed.
For the management of the assistance system there is a special control located next to the left knob, on the handlebar.
On the right side of the handlebar there is a control system for the selection of gears.
INCORRECT AND UNINTENDED USE
The bicycle has been designed and manufactured for the specified use; a differ-
ent use and non-compliance with the technical parameters set by the manufac-
turer, may constitute a dangerous condition for users.

3.3 Brake levers
The brake levers (Ref.C - Figure 3) are placed on the handlebars of the pedal-assisted bicycle, near the knobs (Ref. D- Fig-
ure 3). These systems make it possible to control the calipers of the brake discs, located near the wheel hubs. The right le-
ver controls the rear brake, the left one the front brake; the braking action is proportional to the force applied on the lever.
3.4 Speed change
The pedal-assisted bicycle has a 10-speed gearbox with the sprockets positioned on the hub of the rear wheel, selectable
by means of the opposing levers, located at the base of the right knob. The indicator (Ref. E - Figure 3) at the top of the
handlebar allows you to view the selected ratio.

3.5 Support system management
3.5.1 Support management commands
The pedal-assisted bicycle has, in the center of the han-
dlebar, a display that allows you to manage the operation
of the electric motor, in addition to other basic functions
illustrated below. (Figure 4)
Near the left knob of the handlebar are 3 buttons, which
can be used with a short or long press, thanks to these
you can control the functionality of the display. (Figure 5)
