Congratulations!
You are now the proud owner of a Fifield Electric Bicycle!
Your electric bicycle is like any other bike, but with electric pedal assis-
tance. The same precautionary steps while biking should be taken to prevent
any accidents or injuries.
“
Electric
”
means that your e
-
bike will assist you when you are pedaling if
you so choose. You may also pedal normally with no assistance at all or twist
the throttle to get moving with no pedaling necessary.
The electric bicycles
’
amount of assistance will depend on what level you
set it to; the speed varies from 0 to 5. The fastest speed this bicycle travels is
20
-
25MPH dependent on State Laws
Know your electric bicycle
If misused, the features of your electric bicycle may cause you to lose
control of the e
-
bike. Before riding in fast or more difficult situations, learn
the function and performance of all the mechanisms of your bike by riding at
slower speeds in a flat, empty space.
The maximum weight is 286lbs (130 kg)
.
When riding, please pay attention to the weather and load on your bike; if any
changes are noticed adjust your riding style accordingly. When it is raining or
snowing, please increase braking distance as a safety precaution.
This e
-
bike is not afraid of rain or snow, but it
cannot be submerged in
water
. When water submerges the motor it can cause a short circuit to occur
and damage the electric apparatus.
Always wear a helmet when riding as a safety measure.
Check your e
-
bike before riding every time
Before operating your electric bicycle, inspect it carefully to avoid acci-
dents or damage.
Check wire connections to make sure they are tight, make sure wheels
spin freely and are not rubbing the brakes, monitor air pressure in tires.
If the battery was removed, place the battery back into its location and
be sure to lock it and remove key. Check to see that the battery is fully
charged (battery level indicated on screen) before riding and check the air
pressure of the tires (10
-
25 psi). Be sure to test the front and back brakes, as
well as the condition of the handlebars and the front and back wheels.
Make sure that everything is fastened and secure. Be sure to check that
all quick releases are locked and in good working order
.
Here are a few tips to prolong the battery life under these conditions:
Frequent braking/starting –
try to look ahead and coast rather than stop
and go frequently.
Riding uphill/against strong winds –
pedal to supplement the battery power.
When battery meter indicates low power remaining, switch to manual pow-
er and avoid using the battery.
