First of all, we would like to thank you for choosing the 6IX electric bike.
We warmly welcome you to our Demon Electric family. We wish you enjoy the
numerous kilometers and happy moments with your new bike.
IMPORTANT
Electric Bikes can be dangerous to use. The user or consumer assumes all risk
of personal injuries, damage, or failure of the bicycle or system and all
other losses or damages to themselves and others and to any property arising
as a result of using the bicycle.
As with all mechanical components, the bicycle is subjected to wear and high
stresses. Different materials and components may react to wear or stress
fatigue in different ways.
If the design life of a component has been exceeded, it may suddenly fail
possibly causing injuries to the rider.
Any form of crack, scratches or change of coloring in highly stressed areas
indicate that the life of the component has been reached and it should be
replaced.
Please do not hesitate to contact us. If any problems may occur, please email
us at customersupport1@pdintl.ca for any
customer service solutions such as replacement parts, technical information,
and any other issues.
For any other commercial or general inquires please contact Demon Powersports
at 905 881 9510 or Email us at pdisales@pdintl.ca
PLEASE NOTE: THIS MANUAL IS NOT INTENDED AS A DETAILED USER, SERVICE, REPAIR
OR MAINTENANCE MANUAL. PLEASE SEEK
ASSISTANCE FROM A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN FOR SERVICE, REPAIRS OR MAINTENANCE.
DO NOT DISASSEMBLE, MODIFY OR REPLACE ELECTRICAL PARTS.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Your bike has been pre-assembled and requires only a few simple steps to get
it ready for you to ride:
Remove the outside carton after cutting the nylon bands. Remove all the inside
cardboard protection and bubble wrap. Carefully remove your bike from the
carton and gently rest it in place. Be careful not to cut any wires when
cutting the zip ties.
Ensure the following pieces are included in the package. If there are any
missing parts, please contact Demon for help replacing missing pieces.
INSTALL KICKSTAND
Install kickstand with the 5mm Allen key.
Ensure kickstand is behind the bracket on the left side of the bike during
installation.
Turn bolts clock-wise to tighten.
INSTALL HEADLIGHT
Install the headlight and fender to the front fork with the given long bolt and nut, tighten with the 5mm Allen key and 10mm wrench.
INSTALL FRONT WHEEL
Install the front wheel on the front fork, make sure to align the brake disk
with the brake caliper, Avoid squeezing brakes and ensure the brake disc is
not rubbing against the wheel.
Fasten the wheel hub using the quick release handle.
INSTALL HANDLE BARS
Tighten the 4 pinch screws with the 4mm Allen key. Loctite is recommend on the screw. Align the brake controls so they are facing slightly downward. Make sure the handlebar is centered.
INSTALL PEDALS
Using the 15mm wrench provided in the toolkit, attach, and tighten the pedals. PLEASE NOTE – The pedals are marked “L” for Left and “R” for Right.
The left pedal is attached by turning it counter clockwise and the right pedal
is tightened by turning it clock-wise. Make sure the pedals are tightly
attached to the crank arms to prevent stripping.
(See picture below)
INSTALL SEAT
Make sure the seat is tight enough so that you cannot twist it out of alignment. Pull the seat clamp handle away from the seat post and slide the seat up or down to adjust it. Move the clamp handle inward toward the seat post so it is held tight by the clamp.
Be sure the minimum insertion marks do not go past the top of the seat clamp and are not visible.
CONNECT CONNECTORS
Connect the connectors near handle bar, make sure arrows are pointing towards each other when connecting.
INSTALL TAIL LIGHT
Place the tail light anywhere on the rear of the bike, fasten the bolt using the provided screw driver.
BATTERY CHARGING
Included with your new 6IX is a lithium ion battery, along with a charger,
which plugs into a standard household electric receptacle. A lithium ion
battery requires specially designed chargers.
You should never charge your battery with a substitute charger that is not
designed for this use.
Your 6IX battery arrives with 70% charge. It is recommended that you fully
charge the battery before your first use. To charge the battery please follow
the steps below:
- Remove the rubber cover on the charging socket
- Place the charger in a flat, secure place, and connect the DC output plug from the charger (round barrel connector) to the charging port on the side of the battery pack.
- The indicator light on the charger will be red / orange when battery is charging and will turn green when fully charged.
The charger will charge a fully depleted battery in 3— 4 hours. If the battery
will not be used for an extended period of time, charge it fully and recharge
it every 2 months. Store it in a cool, dry place. If you experience unusual
sounds or odors coming from the charger or the battery, unplug charger
immediately and contact Demon Electric customer service.
BATTERY CHARGING TIPS
- Recharge battery after every use. This will keep the battery in good shape for longer time.
- Do not allow any liquids near or inside the battery charger.
- Do not charge the battery with any other chargers then what was originally supplied with your 6IX
- Fully charge the battery before each use to extend the life of the battery and help to reduce the chance of over discharging the battery pack.
- Do not place the battery near fire or corrosive substances.
- Make sure the charging socket and plug are dry before connecting and charging the battery, and make sure the charger connector is tightly inserted all the way into the socket. Failure to do so may result in HRC (high resistance connection) which could lead to danger of overheating and possible fire hazard.
- Charge the battery in a dry place (indoor) and ensure there is sufficient ventilation.

WARNINGS AND SAFETY
You should check the operation of your brake inhibitor switches before every
ride. While riding slowly in a controlled environment (like a driveway),
engage the motor, then squeeze each brake in turn. The motor should lose power
immediately and remain off as long as a brake lever is depressed.
Always use the lowest assist setting until you are comfortable with the bike
and feel confident controlling the electric assist.
Keep your hands on the brake levers and remember that they will always slow or
stop the bike if pulled. Use only the battery provided with your bicycle. Even
if it is physically possible to connect another type of battery, it is
dangerous and potentially damaging to do so.
Never short circuit on the discharge terminals of the battery. A short circuit
will damage the battery and could cause a fire resulting in severe injury or
death, and property damage. When handling the battery outside the bicycle, be
aware of conductive materials that may short the battery terminals, such as
coins, nails, etc.
Electric bikes are faster and heavier than normal bikes. When riding in wet
weather, you should use extra caution.
Local laws may prohibit the use of high-speed electric bicycles on bike paths
or trails. Be sure you are familiar with the laws in your area. Even if legal,
it is usually not safe to ride at high speed on paths or trails around other
users.
Like any mechanical device, a bicycle and its components are subject to wear
and stress. Different materials and mechanisms wear or fatigue from stress at
different rates and have different life cycles. If a component’s life cycle is
exceeded, the component can suddenly and catastrophically fail, causing
serious injury or death to the rider.
Scratches, cracks, fraying, and discoloration are signs of stress-caused
fatigue and indicate that a part is at the end of its useful life and needs to
be replaced.
Electric Bikes can be dangerous to use. The user or consumer assumes all risk
of personal injuries, damage, or failure of the bicycle or system and all
other losses or damages to themselves and others and to any property arising
because of using this bicycle.
