PEDELEC AND S-PEDELEC BICYCLES
ABOUT PEDELEC AND S-PEDELEC BICYCLES
A pedelec (“pedal electric”) bicycle provides a top assisted speed up to 20 mph.
Pedelec class e-bikes are regarded as bicycles, and, as such, the only regulations
the rider needs to familiarize himself with are the standard local ordinances for
sharing the road safely on a bicycle.
S-Pedelec (“Schnell-Pedelec” or “Speedy-Pedelec”) bicycles provides a top
assisted speed up to 28 mph. S-Pedelec ebikes are usually classified as mopeds.
Depending on local jurisdiction, these ebikes may require registration and
insurance. The rider may also need to obtain a license and be required to wear
a helmet. Rules and regulations for operating an S-Pedelec bike may vary with
jurisdiction.
THROTTLE ENABLED
Some models come equipped with a throttle for pedaless power. To engage the
throttle, simply begin to pedal the bike, (this disengages the safety) and press the
throttle lever. Models not including a throttle, can have throttle added via the quick
connection on the handle bar. Throttles are all limited to a 20 mph speed, but will
not affect the overall pedal assistance speed. Please ask your dealer for more
information.

DISPLAY – INFORMATION CENTER DASHBOARD
The IC Dashboard™ provides key riding information necessary for every rider.
It displays speed, odometer, trip time, battery status and regeneration status.
The display flashes REGEN whenever the motor is in regenerative function. Most
importantly, EVantage has built-in software to automatically self diagnose itself. It
informs the rider that troubleshooting may be required by displaying fault codes on
the IC dashboard should there ever be a motor, battery or display issue. The display
itself was built to be small in size, light in weight, and rain proof. The LED backlight
allows for night time use of the display.

REGENERATION MODE
ACTIVE ARC
REGENERATION
Regeneration automatically activates when using the brakes
or when pedaling above certain speeds in all modes.
Pedelec: above 21 MPH
(speed-pedelec): above 29 MPH
PERPETUAL ARC
REGENERATION
(PAR)
When using the negative modes –1, –2, the motor acts as a
generator and recharges itself while the rider is pedaling on
flat or downhill. The motor will automatically provide pedal
assistance should the terrain require it. Using either PAR
modes, the motor will be generating some resistance to
create the wattage to recharge the Pro Ride™ Battery
–1 Perpetual ARC Regeneration (PAR):
The motor regenerates up to 50W.
–2 Perpetual ARC Regeneration (PAR):
The motor regenerates up to 100W.
Note: REGEN will appear on the display when the battery is charging
PERPETUAL REGENERATION
Our preferred riding mode is Regeneration mode (-1, -2) because a rider can
regenerate power to the battery when pedaling, braking or speeding over 21/29
MPH when going downhill. When going uphill, the DuoDrive motor will assist
the rider creating the perfect balance between decline regeneration and incline
acceleration. An additional feature is the Back-Pedal Regen, which allows the
rider to regen and slow down in curves by doing a short backpedal movement and
creating Regen on-demand.
ACTIVE TRAIL TECHNOLOGY
Automatically delivers power when needed for acceleration up hills, and adjusts
back to regeneration on flat or downhill.
BACK PEDAL REGEN
This electronic back pedal braking feature is utilized for slowing down the bike and
capturing the power in the system to recharge the battery.
MOTOR – BIOSYNC MOTOR TECHNOLOGY
BioSync pedal assistance reads the power output of a rider resulting
in a variable wattage motor system designed to provide the torque
when climbing hills or conserve power for longer distance ranges.
Feel the responsive pedelec power at your feet with BioSync’s pedal
assistance.
There are 5 different assistance settings to choose:
ASSISTANCE LEVEL PEDELEC SPEED RANGE**
3: (Speed mode) Up to 20/25 mph* 20 miles

Note: Does not include Fat tire eBikes range which is up to 30miles in Mode 1
*Depends on model.
** Depends on weight, terrain and weather conditions.
GEAR SPEED TECHNOLOGY
The future of shifting gears on an eBike has arrived. At Polaris, we like speed and
we believe shifting gears should be an integral part of the speed acceleration and
deceleration process. Each gear on a Polaris eBike is programmed to provide the
appropriate torque or acceleration based on the riding terrain and riding style. As
you start pedaling, the burst of speed pickup is felt with each gear change to get you
moving fast. BioSync pedal assistance is our proprietary cadence sensor which reads
the cadence speed and power output. The instant pedal responsiveness is designed
to provide the torque when climbing hills or conserve power for longer distances
INFLUENCES ON THE OPERATING RANGE
The operating range depends on many factors, such as:
– Assistance level
– Gear-switching ability
– Bicycle tires and tire pressure,
– Age and condition of the battery pack
– Route prole (inclines) and road or path conditions and surfaces
– Head wind and ambient temperature
– Weight of the eBike, rider and equipment/luggage

WARRANTY
Liability for material defects does not cover normal wear occurring from the
product’s intended purpose. Components in the motor and deceleration system as
well as tires, brake pads, chain, cassette, spokes and all contact points of the rider
with the pedelec are all subject to use-related wear, as is the battery.
The battery is subject to aging and is therefore also a wearable part. Please note that
the battery gradually loses its capacity depending on its age and operating life. Take
this into account when planning journeys and ensure that you switch to a new battery
in good time. Replacement batteries can be purchased from your Polaris eBikes
authorized dealer.
See warranty card information included with your bicycle.
INSPECTION PLAN
You should service your bicycle on a regular basis. You can get more information
about your bicycle’s parts, as well as cleaning and maintenance directions, in the
instruction manual provided by the respective component manufacturers or on their
websites.
To ensure that your bicycle remains in a safe condition and meets the conditions of
the warranty, the following terms apply:
• Clean your bicycle after every ride and check it for possible damage.
• Have an authorized dealer carry out inspections according to the schedule
provided in this manual.
• Check that all screws and nuts are secure.
• Use a torque wrench to tighten screw joints.
• Clean and grease moving parts (excluding brake surfaces) according to
instructions from the manufacturer.
The first inspection is particularly important for ensuring that your bicycle remains
safe and problem-free. Cables and spokes stretch, while bolted connections can
loosen.
