Maximum Load
Do not exceed the maximum load capabilities of your e-bike. You can find the exact
loading capacity listed in the technical specifications in this guide.
If you exceed the maximum load, the performance of the bike will suffer.
Exceeding the maximum load of your e-bike could cause damage to the shocks, to the
mechanism and, ultimately, even to the frame. It could also cause your motor to work too
aggressively, and it may burn out.
Disconnecting the Circuit Breaker
When the circuit breaker is disconnected, all power from the battery to the e-bike is blocked.
This is useful if you are going to store your e-bike or if it is damaged and you wish to bring
it to be serviced.
Disable the circuit breaker using the following very simple procedure.
1.
Open the seat compartment.
2.
Find the circuit breaker switch (it should be very obvious).
3.
Activate the switch. The power to the e-bike will be disabled.
Long-Term Storage of your E-Bike
If you are storing your bike for a long period, disconnect the circuit breaker. This is a safer
way to store the electric bicycle, as it prevents accidental activation of the e-bike and
makes it impossible to activate it even with the key. The circuit breaker is found by opening
up the battery case. It sits between the battery and the controller.
Note
Please see the section titled “Your Battery” for instructions on battery maintenance
while your e-bike is being stored.
