Safety Instructions
Please follow the guide below for proper maintenance and operation.
Safe operation
For the safety of yourself and others, please observe and follow all traffic rules and
laws. Please operate the ebike according to the ebike laws of your area. If possible,
please ride the ebike along the side of the road and do not over-take any vehicle.
Due to the speed of the ebike, it is advised that the youngest age of operation be 16
years. Also, please pay attention to your speed of operation during rainy or snowy
conditions. Be sure to maintain a safe distance from any obstacles ahead.
Driving
Turn the ebike on by placing the key into the ignition and turning it clockwise to the
“ON” position. The battery meter should indicate that the bike is on and operational
and will indicate the voltage available in the battery.
Please check to ensure that the rear wheel is not locked before operation. (Your
ebike comes with a separate key for the rear wheel lock)
Hold firmly onto the handles and slowly turn the throttle (the right handlebar)
anti/counter clockwise. The motor will begin to kick in and propel the bike forward.
If it is your first time, please ensure that you are comfortable with balancing and
maneuvering the bike before attempting full throttle.
Releasing the throttle will cut off power to the motor and the bike will begin to slow.
Use the brake handles to slow down or to stop the bike. Power will be cut from the
motor once the brake handles are depressed; the throttle will not work so long as
the handles are depressed.
There is a button on your left handlebar for the horn. When parking your bike, you
can set the alarm system by pressing the horn button while the bike is turned “OFF”.
Also on the left handlebar is the turn signal with 3 positions: left, middle, and right.
The middle position is neutral and the signals are off. Left and right function
according to direction they are pushed.
When riding at night, please ensure that the lights are turned on for your own
safety. You can find the light switch on your right handlebar. If the button is switch
to the right, the lights are off. In the middle position, the head lights will turn on. On
