Step 5: Installing the Seat and Pedals
Insert the stem of the seat into the seat column of the main body frame; use the built-in the lever to tighten the stem. Be sure
not to exceed the safety mark on the stem when finding the appropriate seat height. If used inappropriately, serious
damage/injury may be caused to the rider.
To attach pedals, begin by identifying the right and left pedals. Look for “L” and “R”
markings on the axles, wrench flats or stickers. If no “L” and “R” markings are seen, use
pedal thread direction to identify pedals. Left threaded pedals (threads sloping upward to
the left) go to the left crank. Right threaded pedals (threads sloping upward to the right)
go to the right crank. See image if in doubt (Left: left-hand threads on the left pedal. Right:
right-hand threads on the right pedal).
Be sure to grease the pedal threads before installation. Choose the appropriate pedal and start it into the correct crank arm
by hand turning the pedal axle
toward the front of the bike
(both pedals thread in this direction). If it will not start, do not force
it - you are probably trying to install the left pedal on the right side or vice versa. Thread both pedals into the crank arms as
far as you can by hand. Then fully tighten them with a wrench so they do not loosen from pedal pressure. Be careful to
not
overtighten
the pedals as it may cause difficulties with their removal in the future.
Inflate the tires to proper pressure.
Step 6: Inserting and Removing the Battery
Make sure that the battery is properly seated against its housing connector base. Insert the lock key into the slot on the
battery. Turn the key to remove/lock the battery. To see the battery levels use the charge indicator on the handlebar when all
lights are lit up.
NOTE: The keys provided are ONLY used to lock and unlock the battery. Turning the key DOES NOT act as an ignition for
the battery or motor. Please, keep in mind that e-JOE does not carry copies of the keys. It is recommended to store one key
in a safe location in case the first key is misplaced or lost.
Battery Precautions:
●
Do not touch the two poles of the battery with your hands when the battery is removed for charging. The two battery
poles should not be touched with any other metal or other material that conducts electricity.
●
While charging, put the battery in a secure place where children cannot reach it.
●
Do not use any other charger other than the one that came with your electric bike. If you need another charger,
contact your local dealer or e-JOE Bicycle.
●
Do not attempt to open or repair your charger, the electronics contain high pressure circuits, so do not dismantle by
yourself without a professional.
●
Avoid any contact with water while charging; prevent liquids, metal, and metal fillings from permeating the charger,
and be careful to not drop or hit the charger which could damage its components.
●
Do not put anything on top of the charger while charging; it must be well ventilated to allow the heat that is generated
to dissipate.
●
Stop charging the battery immediately if you notice a peculiar smell or the charger gets too hot to touch.
●
To prevent premature failure of your battery and for battery warranty to remain in effect, it is RECOMMENDED to
charge and discharge your battery at least once per month. Do NOT use your battery in a very low state.
●
It is normal that the distance range will reduce as a result of low temperatures.
●
Never dispose of batteries in fire because they may explode.
