Operating Instructions of Derailleur (SunRace Inter-3 Shift Gear)
Your E-Trike is equipped with the Sunrace Inter-3 (3-speed shift gear) at the rear wheel axle.
It is easy to change the gear ratio by shifting the gear-change handle while riding.
Handle position Riding Gradient Speed / Gear Ratio
3 Level road High
2 Level road with a slight slope Middle
1 At a moderate gradient Low (To save your energy while
mounting a slope)
Pedaling becomes heavier
(Indicator moves：1 →2 →3)
8
Revo-shift lever
Pedaling becomes lighter
(Indicator moves：3 →2 →1)
If the gear changes cannot be performed smoothly, please contact your authorized dealer
for adjustment. To smoothly shift the derailleur, the steps as below should be followed.
1. Stop pedaling before shifting the gears while riding.
2. Only shift one gear one time while switching the gear-change handle (Revo-shift lever
shown as above).
3. Resume pedaling.
Note : If you shift the gears while pedaling, a clash noise may be heard due to gears shifting
over dynamic moving parts.
Operating Instructions of Go-Button and Throttle Handle Kit＊(Optional)
The power assist of your E-Trike will remain on continuously when the Go-Button is held on
or the Throttle Handle is twisted.
Note: 1. Do not use Go-Button or Throttle Handle without pedaling especially when
traveling on a slope.

Batteries Charging Time Approx. 2.5 ~ 7hrs depending on the charger capacity
Remark:
1. Your riding range will vary with your weight, battery condition, temperature, terrain, wind
speed, tire pressure and the maintenance, etc.
2. As the last battery indicator light starts flashing, you may continue to ride the E-Trike for
approx. 1.2 Miles (2 KMs) further.
3. The maximum weight capacity of the E-Trike is around 100 Kgs.
Conditions that Effect Your Riding Range
Item Conditions Effects
1 Ambient temperature
Extreme cold and heat can consume the battery’s charge
more quickly.
2 Headwinds Riding into a strong headwind will cause the motor to use
more energy.
3 Road conditions Hilly and rough terrain will cause the motor to use more
energy.
4 Carrier Carrying extra luggage on the carrier or in a basket will cause
the motor to use more energy.
5 Acceleration from a
standing stop
Since more energy is used during initial acceleration, riding in
traffic conditions (i.e. city) that force you to start and stop
often will cause the motor to use more energy.
6 Rider weight A heavier rider will cause the motor to use more energy than
with a lighter rider.
7 Proper gear usage Pedaling in a proper gear for the terrain will help save energy
for both you and the battery.
8 Poor maintenance Adry or dirty chain and under-inflated tires can cause the
motor to use more energy.

17
Maintenance
Periodic Maintenance
Please contact your authorized dealer to maintain your E-Trike periodically：
˙Make sure the front and rear wheel in good condition.
˙Maintain the battery pack and charger in good condition.
˙Maintain the motor and controller in good condition.
˙Check and maintain the brake system to keep it in good condition.
˙Use lubricant to maintain metal parts of the unit, however do not lubricate the brake
shoes.
˙Check all electrical connections and mechanical parts are securely locked
and fastened.
Routine Maintenance
˙Check the tire tread and tire pressure are in good condition.
˙Check the battery capacity remaining charge and charger in good condition.
˙Clean up the surface of your unit without spraying over all electrical connections.

Trouble Shooting
PROBLEM POSSIBLE CAUSE SOLUTION
Battery pack is loose
Loosening issue. (such
as, battery pack could be
removed when the key
on battery pack is not
depressed.)
Battery pack has not been
totally locked onto the
battery holder.
Follow the instruction to dismount
then remount battery pack again to
check if battery pack cannot be
removed without depressing the
key.
Battery gauge LEDs has
no display when power
on.
Battery pack charge is low
or battery not connected. Check if battery pack has been fully charged before use. Refer
above if the battery pack has a
loosening issue.
Power assist fails to
perform its intended
function when pedaling.
Controller may go to sleep
mode to preserve battery
charge after being idle for
few minutes.
Or, if one of handbrakes
fails to restore to its
disengaged position.
Switch power off and then back on
to remove from sleep mode.
Check handbrakes are totally
disengaged when the levers have
been released.
Power assist function
discontinued when
riding.
Battery pack with an empty
charge. As the last battery indicator light start flashing then the battery pack
must be recharged as soon as
possible, or the power assist will be
discontinued after approximately 2
KMs of further riding.
Poor traveling range Frequent riding on
gradients, poor tire
pressure, battery pack with
insufficient charge, or
battery aging, etc.
Decrease chance to ride on
gradients to check if a longer range
is acquired, fill up tire pressure to
50 PSI, fully charge the battery
daily after use, or replace a new
battery pack, etc.
Unusual motor/gear
sound (noise) Check if any foreign object obstructs wheels or motor. Clean up obstacles around the wheels and motor.
Note: You must use the genuine SUNRUNNER®charger dedicated for C-LiFePO4Battery
Pack to be charged.
Please contact your authorized dealer if the above solution has been checked and the
problem is still exists.
