PREFACE
Congratulations on the purchase of your PRESTIGE electric bicycle!
Our electric bikes are designed with maximum comfort in mind and high-quality
workmanship. Great care was given to the selection of quality components and easy
operation. This way you can enjoy your electric bike in complete safety, with or
without support from the electric motor.
Before you start using the bike, we recommend that you first read this manual
carefully for proper use of the bike.
USE STAIR SUPPORT
The term STEP SUPPORT means that when you pedal the pedals, the electrical
system gives additional power. The electrical support starts when you pedal the
pedals and stops when you keep the pedals still. Even if you press one of the two
brake levers, the support stops immediately.
ACTIVATE AND CORRECT USE OF THE BATTERY
The bicycle must be activated by switching on the battery. You can do this by turning
the switch at the bottom right to the ON position. When you stop cycling, you put it
in the OFF position again. When you pause during a bike ride, you can safely leave
the button on the ON position. However, when storing the bike for a longer period of
time, we recommend using the OFF position so that the battery does not drip less
quickly when not in use.
Your bicycle has a separate battery lock. This lock ensures that the battery is always
locked so that the battery cannot vibrate loose (and possibly fall out of the bike while
you are driving) and that theft of the battery is strongly discouraged. You can lock or
unlock the battery by opening or closing the lock with the corresponding key.

.
When the battery lock is loose, you can easily remove the battery by sliding it
backwards.
Your battery is also equipped with an indicator (-1-) that shows approximately how
much remaining capacity is left. Please note that this indication is not as accurate as
the battery display on your display. You have the most accurate display when cycling
when the battery is under load. The indicator at the back shows a snapshot without
load.
The rear light is integrated in the back of the battery. Activating / deactivating is very
easy by pressing the button. (-2-)
The rear light has its own battery. Ask your dealer for advice about replacing the light
(removable) or the battery.
BICYCLES WITH SUPPORT
To use the pedal assistance you must first activate the battery.
You must then activate the display so that you can operate the various display
functions.
Below you will find an overview of the different types of displays

USE AS AN ORDINARY BIKE (NEUTRAL POSITION)
You can also use your electric bicycle as a normal bicycle and switch off
the support completely. You can easily reduce support to zero via the
display. The bicycle will no longer offer pedal support.
ACCUMETER
The display on the handlebars gives you an indication of how full the
battery is. If your battery has just been charged
all lights or blocks will light up. It is possible that when you come up
against a steep viaduct, the number of burning lights / blocks will briefly
decrease. If you drive down again the number will again
increase (this is due to a short peak load of the battery).
We recommend that you record the number of kilometers of the first 3
to 5 (almost) discharged batteries. This way you can maintain an average
range of your battery that matches your driving style (see influence
factors of range). You can choose to run the battery completely empty,
but you can also recharge your batteries in between if a few lights or
blocks are still lit. The used batteries have no memory effect.
Characteristic of Li Ion batteries is that when you use more than half of
the
has used up the battery, the blocks will drop out faster.

laden. Diepontladingen zijn nefast voor de accukwaliteit en vallen niet onder ga.
As soon as the battery only shows one block, you must update it as soon as possible
load. Deep discharges are detrimental to the battery quality and are not covered by
the guarantee.
ACTIERADIUS
The action radius depends on various factors and is strongly influenced by:
Tire pressure •ambient temperature •wind force •position of the support
(LOW-MED-HIGH) •characteristics of the road (hills etc.) •driving speed •weight
of the rider •driving behavior •maintenance of the bike: brakes, chain, bearings
etc.) •driving off in a heavy gear •age of the battery •any extra luggage such as
high chair, trailers etc. •whether or not use of the 6km / starting support, engine
efficiency, power / consumption of the engine .
WERKING VAN DE VERSNELLINGEN
Your bike has 7 or 8 gears. You can change gears with the grip shift system that is
incorporated in the right handlebar. By turning the handle you change to a higher or
lower gear. If your bike has the "push / pull system", you can easily adjust the gears
by pushing with your thumb and pulling with the index finger.
When starting from standstill the support picks up faster in a low gear, this is also
better for the range of the battery. Also, the use of a low gear when driving uphill will
increase the range because the battery is considerably less charged.

SPEED
Bear in mind that on average you drive faster than normal if you use the
stair support. Adjust your speed when approaching intersections or making a very
short turn (for example, when turning around on the road).
The speed will gradually decrease automatically if you drive above 25 km / h. This is
because European legislation provides that the maximum support speed may be 25
km / h or - if it is a speed bike - 45 km / h..
LIGHTING
Your bike is equipped with efficient LED lighting. The power is supplied via an internal
battery that is in both the front light and rear light. You can easily switch on both
lights by pressing the button. Some models have a bicycle lighting that you must
operate via the display. In this case refer to the instructions on the display to switch
the lighting on or off with the correct button.
MAXIMALE BELASTING FIETS
The maximum load of the bicycle is 120 kg.
The maximum load of the pack carrier is 15 kg.
USE AND CHARGING THE BATTERY
For the correct use and maintenance of the LITHIUM battery we kindly ask you to
read this manual carefully and to adhere to the instructions given。
