that is located along the battery’s box.
Remove the battery by pulling it out.
When you put the battery back into
place, don't forget to fasten the lock..
3.2 Charging the battery
Never let a battery be charged unattended!
The battery’s autonomy is indicated with the 4 green LED lights located on top of the battery, and
also on the display unit located on the handlebars (see 1.3 indicator 8). Your battery must be
charged in an ambient temperature, on a non-flammable and dry surface, away from any sources
of heat, humidity or flammable materials. Also, it must not be covered.
Here are the steps to be followed when charging your battery:
Step 1
Turn the battery off. The LED lights will be off.
Step 2
Plug the charger (which is off) into the socket and then insert the charger’s
plug into the battery, which is also off.
Step 3
the charger’s LED indicators lit up in the following manner:
• The red LED lights will be on: the battery is being charged.
• The red LED light becomes green:
the battery is charged; you can unplug the charger. (B) .

(a) (b)
It takes 3 - 6 hours for the battery to be fully charged when using the standard charger that’s
supplied with your bike.
3.3 Battery autonomy and lifespan
3.3.1 Autonomy
The bike's autonomy ranges from 40 to 120 kilometers, as it depends on many different factors
(degree of assistance used, topology, rider’s weight, frequent stops/start-ups, hills, tyre pressure,
etc…)
3.3.2 Battery
Your battery is just like a household battery. It contains a limited amount of energy, which
diminishes as it is being used. When the available autonomy no longer corresponds with your
needs, you will be able to obtain a new one from your dealer.
3.3.3 Maintenance
If you don’t use your bike for a period of time exceeding 2 months, store it in a humidity-free area
to protect the electronic components and make sure that the battery is neither completely
charged nor completely discharged (2 or 3 green LEDs lit up).
3.4 Battery safety instructions
Your bike's battery is an electric component made up of chemical elements. For your safety, it is
imperative that you obey the following rules:
Always handle with great care
Always keep it away from children
Do not take it apart or hit, pierce or submerge it
Keep it away from temperatures exceeding 60°
Never create a connection between the contacts
located at the bottom of the battery
Never let the battery charge unattended
Never sleep near a battery that is charging
Only use the charger that came with your
Velosolex or that was supplied by your dealer
If your battery is damaged, do not use it and take
it back to your dealer as soon as possible
Note:
Never store a completely discharged battery as it might result in permanent damage.
During the winter or long storage periods, it is recommended that you charge the battery
halfway every 2 months. Don’t forget to switch it off. Store your battery at a temperature
between 15°and 25°.

4. Safety and maintenance Recommendations
4.1 Safety recommendations
Helmet: For safe riding, use a bicycle helmet.
Tyres: Inspect the wear of your tyres on a regular basis and verify the tyre pressure at least
once a month.
Tyre pressure: 40-65 PSI depending on the weight of the user.
Wheel-rims: Please care of the wheel-rims and a clear explanation of any danger of rim-wear.
Brakes
Please check all connections of the Disc Brakes before attempting to ride the bicycle.
Secure tightly the 2 bolts that hold the brake mechanism to the fork.
Insert the front wheel into the fork dropouts ensuring that the disc fits into the brake
mechanism between the enclosed brake pads
Secure the front wheel to the bicycle by tightening the quick release mechanism and
clamping the lever to the closed position.
Please refer to section 6 for further instruction on quick release mechanisms.
Next, attach the cable to the brake lever by inserting the cable end into the cable end
holder after the barrel adjuster and lock nut slots have been aligned with the cable
end holder.
After the cable is secured to the lever, rotate the barrel adjuster and lock nut so the
slots no longer line up.
Ensure the cable housing seats appropriately into the end of the barrel adjuster and
check for any kinks or damage.
Slide the exposed brake cable through the rotating rod/housing stop located on the
caliper body and seat the housing all the way into the same stop.
Insert the cable into the spring and spring boot. Next, slide the cable through the
cable anchor and pull all the slack out.
Secure the cable in place by tightening the bolts that comprise the anchor assembly.
Some disc brakes will have a centering devise while others are a free-floating
mechanism.
If your caliper body is equipped with centering bolts, apply the brake lever after the
cable has been connected.
While engaging the lever, tighten the centering bolts securely.
This will center the caliper body on the disc.
Minor brake adjustment can be made via the barrel cable adjusters which are located
on each brake lever.
To adjust, squeeze the brake pads against the rim, loosen the lock nut, and turn the
adjuster to pull the brake pads closer to, or spread them away from the rim as
required.
Make sure to inspect the wear of the front brake pads as well as the rear brake blocks.
If the brake action remains insufficient, despite your adjustment efforts using the
toothed wheel located next to the levers, contact your dealer so that these worn out
parts can be replaced.
Important: braking distance increases on humid or slippery ground

Saddle-post
Suitable covering and coil springs under the
saddle if a child-seat is fitted to prevent
trapping of fingers.
Reflector
Please regarding the positioning of reflectors and
lamps such that these are not obscured when
luggage is attached to the luggage carrier.
Gears
Like the chain, the freewheel must be kept clean and well lubricated. If the chain has become
worn and needs replacing, then it is likely that the freewheel will also have become worn and
should also be replaced. Take the chain off the freewheel and rotate it with your hand. If you
hear a grinding noise or the freewheel stops suddenly after spinning it, it may need
adjustment or replacement.
Carrier
Maximum authorized load: 25KG
This luggage carrier is not designed to pull a trailer. Don't install the child-seat on the carrier. The
bicycle may behave differently (particularly with regard to steering and braking) when the luggage
