The Lithium-ion Battery of Your e-Bike
Your e-bike is equipped with the latest battery technology. The lithium ionbatteryismuch lighter than lead- or nickel-based batteries that are being used in some older models. -
Your First Ride
Please be VERY CAREFUL when you are ready to get on your e-bike for thefirst timebecause that the e-bike moves significantly faster than a regular bicycle at activepower-assisted mode. Take your e-bike to an area with a lot of open space beforeyoustart.Do not start pedaling hard as soon as you get on the e-bike (as you normallywouldbewith a regular bicycle), as the e-bike will accelerate under pedal-assist mode andyoumaybe unprepared for the sudden increase in speed. However, after a fewtimes, youwill enjoy using the pedal- assisted function.
Assembling Your New e-Bike
If you purchased your e-bike unassembled, please follow these instructions to assembleyoure-bike under the guidance of an adult or a qualified technician. Assembly is quiteeasyasmost of the parts are already assembled; you need only to put a few large pieces togethertocomplete the job. For more information, please refer to this website: www.engwe-bikes.com.
Name of each Part
Check that the Package is Complete and Undamaged
Your e-bike comes in a carton containing the following:
The main body of the e-bike – consisting of the frame, the rear wheel, thegear
and chain, the rear brake, the battery in the frame, the rear fender.
- The handlebar subassembly with the battery’s keys that attachedonit -thehandlebar subassembly is not really separate, as it is connectedtothemainbody by the brake cables and electrical wires. The handlebar alsohasthebrake levers and gear control already assembled. Additionally, theright handle also has an integrated control for the throttle mode power-assisted,adisplay panel.
- The Seat – the seat is attached to its pedestal stem. The front wheel
- The front wheel fender with supports
- Front light -the front light is not really separate, as it is connectedtothemainbody by an electrical wire.
- Tools and other parts -One multi-tools, one charger, a pair of foot pedalsandthis manual, they are contained in a separate box
Assembly – Step 1: Attach the handlebar subassembly
Stand the main body of the e-bike on the kickstand. Stand up and lock the
steeringcolumn that is at the front of the main body frame, insert the stemof
the handlebarsubassembly into it. Make sure that the fork (that will hold the
front wheel) is pointingforward, and orient the handlebar accordingly. Insert
the stemall the way andtightenfrom the top using the quick lock.
Assembly – Step 2: Attach the Front Wheel Fender and the Front Light
Make sure that the fork from the steering column is pointing forward. Place
thefront lightand the front fender within the fork: locate the small
projection with a screwholeat thetop of the fender, fit it to the bolt at the
back of the base of the steering column; attachthesupports (one on each side)
to the base of the fork using two small bolts (supplied). Afterall three
points (the dorsal point and the 2 support points) are properly attached,
usethemulti-tools to tighten.
Assembly – Step 3: Attach the Front Wheel and Adjusting the Front Brake
Make sure that the fork from the steering column is pointing forward.
Removetheprotective bar from the front fork, place the front wheel within the
fork andthebrakediscwithin the brake block, seat the axial stem properly
within the receptacles at thetipsofthe fork, and tighten the nuts with the
multi-tools. Make sure that the front wheel movesfreely and does not wobble
from side to side. Reposition the wheel and re-tightenifnecessary
Test the brake by lifting the front of the e-bike and setting the wheel in motion(turnit)and apply the brake at the handlebar to stop it. If you could not set the wheel infreemotion, or if you could not stop it by applying the brake, you need to re adjust byincreasing or decreasing the clearance. Caution: Do not operate the e-bike until you are satisfied that both the front andrearbrakes are operational.
Assembly – Step 4: Installing the Seat and Pedals
Insert the pedestal stem of the seat into the seat column of the main body
frame, usethebuilt-in lever to tighten. Attach a pedal on each side of the
crank, tighten with the multi-tools. Inflate the tires to proper pressure. At
this point, your e-bike is a completely functional bicycle, although without
anybatteryoperated to function as yet. Check all tightening points to make
sure. Take a short ride.Adjust the height of the handlebar, and the height and
the tilt of the seat, if necessary, formaximum comfort.
Assembly – Step 5: Charging the Battery
Remove the charger from the box, attached the power cord and insert that
toanywalloutlet. Insert the plug at the end of the smaller cable into the
charging terminal of thebattery and start charging. The charging terminal is
on the side of the batteryoppositetoahole on the side of the frame. The LED on
the charger glows REDwhile chargingandglows GREEN when charging is complete.
The battery should be turned OFFwhilebeingcharged. When the LED on the charger
turns Green, disconnect the chargingcordandcover the charging terminal with
the rubber cap. If a battery is installed on the e-bike and turned ON, the
display panel will showthecharge level of the battery when the bike turned ON.
You are now ready to start using your e-bike.
Operating Your New e-Bike
The method to turn on the bike is: I, twist the battery lock counterclockwise to theendtoturnon the battery; II, press power button on the left handle bar until the display lights on; III,ride on the bike and twist the throttle bar or pedal the bike, the bike will move, youcanchange the power level with control buttons, level 1 is the slowest and level 5is thefastest,level 0 is human model. Your e-bike is driven by a motor embedded in the hub of the rear wheel. The motor ispowered by a battery. The amount of power delivered to the motor, and hence theaccelerating force on the bike, is controlled by you in a way according to the power-assisted mode or full power mode you choose. You can configure the e-bike to operate in the pedal-assist-only mode or the full powermode (should check against local laws to ensure full power mode is permitted) whereyoucan also use the hand throttle to deliver power to the motor.

Your First Ride
(Reprinted from the Safety and Compliance with the Law section) Please be VERY CAREFUL when you are ready to get on your e-bike for thefirst timebecause the e-bike moves significantly faster than a regular bicycle at activepower- assisted mode. Take your e-bike to an area with a lot of open space beforeyoustart. Do not start pedaling hard as soon as you get on the e-bike (as you normallywoulddo with a regular bicycle), as the e-bike will accelerate under pedalassist modeandyoumay be unprepared for the sudden increase in speed. However, after a fewtimes, youwill enjoy using the pedal-assisted function. -
Pedal-Assisted
You must turn on the battery to use the e-bike in pedal-assisted mode. In the pedal assisted mode, power assist is triggered when you pedal forward, andpowerassist stops when you stop pedaling, sometime would be delay. In other words, powerassist happens as long as you pedal. You don’t need to pedal hard. All youneedistoapply a light force to the pedals continuously to maintain the current flow. Whenyouapply one of the brakes, power assist will automatically stop, allowing the e-biketoslowdown and stop. Power assist will turn itself off when the e-bike has reachedthemaximum speed that the power level you choose. You should use the gear shifter at the handlebar to set the gears appropriatelyaccordingto road conditions and pedal, as usual, you will find that you need to exert a lot lesseffortand the e-bike travels faster and at a more steady speed. -
l-ERS, Cruise Control and Ambient Light Detection (Only for ENGINEPro)
1. l-ERS is stand for Intelligent Energy Recovery System. It allows the battery to get recharged when it is on high speed or downhill. Over 20km/h(12mph)atPAS 0/1, it will be triggered.
2. Cruise Control will be triggered when you holding thumb throttle for 8second, anditwill be released by braking pedaling or throttling.
3. The headlight automatic light up when the ambient is dark.-
Hand Throttle Control
In the hand throttle mode, amount of power assist is determined by the throttleswitchcontrolled by your hand. You control the throttle by twisting it fromits restingposition,the farther the throttle switch is from its resting position, the more power is deliveredtothe motor to accelerate the e-bike. When you want to slow down, you simplyreleasethethrottle and let it return to its resting position, and simultaneously apply the brakesifnecessary. You do not need to pedal the e-bike if you use the hand throttle. However, youcanpedalwhile commanding power assist. If you do pedal to help the movement, youconserveenergy and the charge in the battery will last longer. -
Charging Your e-Bike Battery
Your e-bike battery is a lithium-ion battery. Lithium-ion battery requires speciallydesigned chargers. You should never charge your battery with a substitute charger thatisnot designed for this use. Use of an unsuitable charger to charge a lithium-ionbatterywillresult in overheating, fire or even explosion. If your charger is lost or damaged, contactyour dealer to order a replacement. Charge your battery while the e-bike is not in use. You should turn off the batterybeforeyou charge it. You may charge your battery while it is mounted on the e- bike, or afterithas been removed from the e-bike. Do not place either the charger or the battery near flammable substances whilechargingis taking place. Charging should not be done in the vicinity of infants and small children.It is also prudent to remove valuableobjects from the immediate vicinity of thebatterywhile it is being charged. The length of charging time depends on the level of charge the battery still holds. Ifabattery is completely discharged, it will take 6 hours to be fully recharged. Whenabattery is fully charged, the LED on the charger will transition fromREDtoGREEN. Atthis point, you should disconnect the charger. Do not leave the charger connectedtothebattery for a very long period of time after charging is complete. (Leavingit connectedfor an overnight charging is OK. It is normal for the charger and the battery to be slightly hot while chargingis ongoing -
Removing the Battery from the e-Bike
The battery is an important and costly part of the e-bike. It is designed to be lockedintoposition with a key to preventing theft. You can take further precaution byremovingthebattery while the e-bike is parked unattended. You may also have a need toremovethebattery from the e-bike to recharge it at a location where you cannot park your e-bike.The method to remove the battery is:
1. open the cap of the charging port andfoldthebike;
2. insert the key into the battery, hold pressing the key a bit until twist clockwisetothe end (Note: You can’t remove the battery until the lock bar withdraws intothebatterycompletely);
3. slip off the battery, the battery is quite heavy and you shouldtakecarenot to drop it.-
Maximizing the Riding Range
Many factors affect the rate of use of the electrical energy and the riding range.-
You should fully charge the battery before a long journey.
-
Rough road conditions and hilly terrain will consume more energy.
-
Frequent change of speed will consume more energy.
-
Carrying more weight on the e-bike will consume more energy.
-
Keeping the tires properly inflated and keeping the e-bike clean andwell
lubricated will save energy. -
Making sure that both wheels move freely when brakes are not appliedwillsave energy. You should check brake adjustments frequently.
-
Pedaling as you ride will consume less electrical energy and increasetheridingrange.
-
When the battery is turned off, your e-bike functions as a regular bicycle. Ifyouembark on a very long journey, you might want to turn off the batteryforlongstretches where the road is level or downhill and pedal the e-bike as aregularbicycle so that you can conserve electrical energy stored in the battery.

Care and Maintenance for Your Newe-Bike
You should, in general, take care of your e-bike the way you would with a regular bicyclebykeeping it dry, clean and the moving parts well lubricated. You should also avoidparkingyour e-bike in exposed areas whenever possible. You should check the effectiveness of the brakes before each use
- For your e-Bike, you should also take note of the following:
- Your e-bike is designed for regular country road use for a single person. Usingyour e-bike for extreme maneuvers, such as extreme off-road use, jumping, orcarrying the excessive load will damage the e-bike and could causeseriousinjury.
- Do not use high-pressure water streams to clean your e-bike, as water mightseep inside the motor or the wiring compartment and cause rustingof electricalparts or short circuits.
- Avoid parking your e-bike outside when there is rain or snow. At theendofatrip where there was rain or snow, bring the e-bike inside and use aclean, drytowel to eliminate any wetness.
- Be sure you do not lose both keys and remote controls. If you lost onekey, youshould immediately make a copy as a back-up. If you lost both keys, youwillbe unable to remove the battery from the e-bike. If you lost bothremotecontrols, you can’t turn on the bike.
- Special Care for the Battery and the Charger
- Use only the supplied charger to charge your battery. Do not use anunauthorized substitute. If your charger is lost or damaged, contact your dealerto order a replacement
- Do not open or alter the battery or the battery charger.
- Do not place the battery near fire or corrosive substances. Do not immerseinwater or other liquids.
- Avoid subjecting the battery from high temperatures, such as directlyunderthehot sun, for prolonged periods of time.
- Do not connect (short circuit) the two poles of the battery.
- After much use, your battery’s charge holding capacity will decrease. If youfind that your battery does not hold sufficient charge even for short trips, youshould contact your dealer to order a replacement. Under normal use, thebattery will undergo 500 charging and discharging cycles.
- If the battery will not be used for an extended period of time, chargeit fullyandrecharge it every 3 months. Store it in a cool place.
- Your e-bike battery is engineered with precision for high capacity and long useful life. We do not recommend that you use it to power other electrical devices. Improper use of the battery will damage the battery and short enits useful life and may cause a fire or an explosion.
