*If BMS communication is not supported, display cannot obtain accurate RANGE information, and the value of RANGE is displayed as 000.0KM
6.4 Light control function
In a power-on state, long press button to turn on the front light, at the meantime, a light icon on top left corner of screen will appear indicating light-on status. Long press button to turn the lights off.

6.5 Speed information switch
In basic function interface, display shows the real-time speed, average speed, and maximum speed. Users can switch info by short press M button. Check 6.3 for more information switch.
6.6 Walk assist function
When speed is 0, long press button to enter walk assist mode, motor output according to the setting speed and control the actual walk speed, display shows the walk assist icon and the real-time speed. Release button or any other button to exit walk assist mode, the motor is turned off, and the display gets back to the basic interface. Walk assist interface, shown as below:

6.7 Battery power indicator and assist power output
Battery power information is divided into battery bar indication and remaining percentage indication. When battery power is normal, battery capacity is divided into 5 bars. Before communication is established, battery percentage is not displayed, and the power bar is full and blinks at 2Hz. After battery info is acquired, power bar will stop blinking, and displays the power percentage. If communication is not successful within 5s, it will stop blinking and no power percentage will be displayed.
After battery capacity is lower than 5% or the voltage is lower than low voltage value, display will enter low-voltage mode. In this mode battery level showed level 0 and border blink at 1Hz, with no power output from the motor, and disabled assist level switch. Power assist level is displayed as OFF or 0.
To get out of low-voltage mode, reset, and increase the voltage above low- voltage value and battery capacity above 5%.
Percentage of battery power(C)and power level table
(Require battery % info from BMS or controller):

SOC Battery level Description
80% ≤ SOC Full battery level 5
60% ≤ SOC < 80% Level 4
40% ≤ SOC < 60% Level 3
20% ≤ SOC < 40% Level 2
10% ≤SOC < 20% Level 1
5% ≤ SOC < 10% Level 0
0% ≤ SOC < 5% Level0  and icon blink at1 Hz

 Remarks about battery indicator:
When there is a battery communication error:

  1. Display will estimate the power according to the voltage and show the battery level accordingly;
  2. No battery percentage information shown;
  3. Range information will not be displayed;
  4. If the voltage is lower than the low-voltage value, the effect of the current on voltage needs to be considered when converting to voltage at 0 current
