CONTROLS

ASSSEMBLY

1. Loosen the outer lug nuts on each side of the front tire. Move the washers and outer lug nuts to the edge of the axle. Do not move the innermost lug nuts. Insert the front tire into the front fork. Insert the hooked washers into the front fork holes and move the rounded washers toward the wheel. Use a 15 mm wrench to tighten the outer lug nuts. Attach the black caps to the lug nuts.
2. Place the rubber grommet (indicated in blue) on the steering column of the handlebar assembly as shown in Figure B. Insert the steering column into the front fork. Insert the seat pole into the frame and clamp the pole at the desired seat height.
3. Use the multi-tool’s hex key to loosen the screw inside the steering column and raise or lower the handlebars. Tighten the screw at the desired handlebar height. Tighten the other 2 screws at the top of the steering column with the hex key if needed.
4. Line up the protective cover (indicated in blue) with the center of the handlebar assembly and attach it °irmly. Push the centerpiece plate (indicated in gray) into the protective cover until it is locked °irmly in place.
5. Increase the strength of the brake by twisting the threaded stud (indicated in blue) counterclockwise to create a gap between it and the nut indicated in gray. The larger the gap between the threaded stud and the nut, the more stopping power the brakes will provide. Make sure the gray nut is twisted clockwise until it is secured tightly to side of the brake handle. Be careful not to give the brakes too much stopping power, as it could cause the E˜Bike to tip forward when braking at higher speeds.

BEFORE RIDING

RIDING YOUR MY FIRST E-BIKE

FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THE FOLLOWING SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MAY LEAD TO DAMAGE TO YOUR MY FIRST E˜BIKE, DAMAGE TO PROPERTY, VOID YOUR MANUFACTURER WARRANTY, CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY INJURY, OR LEAD TO DEATH.

OPERATING YOUR DEVICE

• Make sure the My First E˜Bike is fully charged before your °irst use. For charging instructions, please follow the details under “CHARGING YOUR MY FIRST E-BIKE” on page 15.

• Before powering on the E˜Bike, make sure the tires are in°lated to 36 psi. When ready, turn on the My First E-Bike by pressing and holding the power button for 3 seconds.

• To start riding, engage the throttle gently. Start slow and apply more pressure to the throttle as you get more comfortable riding.

• To slow down, disengage the throttle and squeeze the brake handle. The brake is pressure-sensitive, so a tighter squeeze will provide more stopping power. The faster you are riding, the longer the stopping distance you will need. Be cautious, stopping too fast from a high speed can cause your
  E-Bike to skid or jerk.

• Prepare to brace yourself if you encounter bumps or uneven surfaces. Slow down and ride cautiously. Get o˛ and move your My First E-Bike to a safe operating space if needed.

• When you have °inished riding, gently bring your My First E-Bike to a full stop. Turn o˛ the My First E-Bike by pressing and holding the power button for 3 seconds.

WARNING
Do not turn sharply or at high speeds. Do not turn or ride quickly along slopes, as it may cause injury.

SPEED AND WEIGHT LIMITATIONS
Speed and weight limits are set for your own safety. Please abide by the limits listed here in the manual.

• Maximum Speed: 8 mph
• Maximum Weight: 132 lbs
• Minimum Weight: 44 lbs

OPERATING RANGE

The My First E-Bike can travel up to 7.5 miles on a fully charged battery in ideal conditions. The following are some of the major factors that will a˛ect the operating range of your device.

• Terrain: Operating range is highest when riding on a smooth, flat surface. Riding uphill and/or on rough terrain will reduce the operating range significantly.
• Weight: A lighter user will have a higher operating range than a heavier user.
• Ambient Temperature: Please ride and store the E-Bike in recommended temperatures. This will increase the operating range, battery life, and overall performance of your device.
• Speed and Riding Style: Maintaining a moderate and consistent speed while riding produces maximum operating range. Traveling at high speeds for extended periods of time, frequent starts and stops, and idling will decrease operating range.

WARNING
Riding the My First E-Bike while exceeding the weight limit may increase possibility of injury or product damage.

CHARGING YOUR MY FIRST E-BIKE
