SAFETY & GENERAL TIPS

STREET LEGALITY
· Electric bikes or conversion kits considered street legal under Canadian and US Federal Electric Bike Regulations are viewed as bicycles, not motorized vehicles and do not require an insurance license plate or driver’s license. It is important to check your province/state, county, and local laws to ensure that your ebike complies with local regulation provisions
· ONTIME ebikes general settings comply with 28mph max assisted speed, 750W max mechanical power, equipped with brake cut-off switches and options to control assist power while riding. These provisions suffice all USA/Canada federal and provincial regulations. Parks and other privately managed properties might have different rules. ONTIME ebikes are considered ebike Class III in the US
· Please note street legal does not mean cyclists can ride an electric bike or trike on bicycle pathways and trails that restrict the use of electric assist bikes
· There may be components such as throttle that have a different legal definition depending on the province/state you are located in. Because of this we have provided controller settings that can adapt to a variety of specifications
· By modifying an electric bike or conversion kit’s settings, upgrading a component’s capacity, such as the controller or motor, the product may lose its street legality even if modifications are done by a professional. If at any point ONTIME Drive Systems is asked to implement upgrades, we will notify you if the modifications exceed street legal limits
· ONTIME is not liable for the legality of use of products in various locations
Your insurance policy may not provide coverage for accidents related to the use of an ebike. Make sure to contact your insurance company to know about your coverage.

2.2. RULES OF THE ROAD
Failure to follow recommendations outlined in this section may cause damage to property, injury, or even death.
· Always obey all the traffic rules, regulations, signs, and signals · Always wear a bicycle helmet that meets or exceeds safety standards · Ride in a single file on the right side of the road · Avoid drain grates, soft road edges, gravel, sand, potholes, and uneven paving · When crossing the railroad track, pay extra attention as you may lose control · Avoid unsafe actions when riding the ebike · Do not carry a payload that shifts your balance, hinder your vision, or affect your hearing · Always have both of your hands on the handlebar · Do not tow or push the product · Replace broken parts immediately · If any ebike component is not functioning properly, end the ride immediately

BEFORE YOUR FIRST RIDE
· If you have an impairment or disability such as visual impairment, hearing impairment, physical impairment, cognitive impairment, and/or a seizure disorder, consult your physician before riding any ONTIME Drive Systems product
· Before going on your first ebike adventure, take time to get familiar with your ebike · Make sure everything on the bike is secured and tight, the battery is locked, and there is no play
in any screws or bearings · Check if you are able to turn the handlebar while the wheel is held in place · Check if the handle bar is secured to the stem by trying to twist the bars forward and backward · Ride around a quiet area at the lowest PAS (Pedal Assist LCD) setting, get familiar with your
brakes and settings · Be sure to bed in the brakes. Failure to do so will result in lower than optimum braking
performance and can lead to squealing

ONTIME | PHANTOM EBIKE MANUAL | VERSION 1.0

BATTERY & CHARGER SAFETY
· Please keep the battery away from excessive heat and moisture, do not spray with high pressure water, and do not store outdoors in freezing temperatures below 0°C
· Always store your battery in a well ventilated, cool, dry room at room temperature · Keep away from children and pets · If you notice any SMOKING OR SPARKING while charging immediately disconnect the battery · Disconnect the battery from the charger once the charger light is green. And disconnect the
charger from the wall plug · Always fully charge the battery before storage and continue to check up on and charge every 2
months. Failure to do so can result in a loss of capacity to the battery and may even permanently damage the battery cells, which will void the warranty · Always unplug the charger when not in use · Take care of the pins. Always be gentle when pulling the charging pin out. Rough use of the pins can cause irreversible damage to the pins and battery · Always use the charger provided by ONTIME for the battery · Make sure you always seal the USB port when not in use · Port is only designed for charging low voltage electronics. · Always unplug the charger when not in use · To minimize chances of sparking, first gently plug the charger into the battery and then plug the charger into the wall · The charger may get hot while charging. Make sure charger’s surrounding is open for natural heat dissipation
NEVER disassemble the battery, there is significant risk of shock and damage to the battery. Doing so will also void the warranty. DO NOT puncture or crush the battery, or expose to server vibrations and impacts.

ONTIME | PHANTOM EBIKE MANUAL | VERSION 1.0

7

Do not puncture or crush the battery. Do not expose the battery to severe vibrations or impacts. Failure to properly use, charge, and store your battery as instructed will void the warranty and could cause a hazardous situation.
Do not use the ONTIME battery charger for any purpose other than charging your ebike. Do not use the ONTIME battery as a power source for any other devices than your ONTIME ebike. If you do so the warranty will not be applicable, and ONTIME Drive Systems will not be liable for any damage to the system or injury to the persons.
2.5. FIRST CHARGE
· When you first receive your battery it will have about 50-70% of charge · Before your first ride, charge your battery up to 7-9hrs, but no longer than that · This may require you to leave the battery in charge even when the charger light is green. Doing
so ensures that each cell is charged to its full capacity · The full voltage of the battery pack should be slightly under 42V, and can be checked in the LCD
display
Do not drop the battery. Damaged batteries can cause fire and may explode which can lead to damaged property, injury or even death.

ONTIME | PHANTOM EBIKE MANUAL | VERSION 1.0

CHARGING YOUR BATTERY
· Never store the battery in a discharged state. After every ride, charge the battery as soon as it has reached room temperature. This is to ensure battery health
· When it comes to charging the battery, there are two options you can either charge the battery while it is on the bike, or you may take it with you and charge it in your home or office
· For safety, always turn off your battery before charging · If you choose to take the battery with you to charge, there is a charging port near the battery’s
bottom · Always charge the battery in a well ventilated, cool room. Do not leave the battery unattended for
an extended period · You can check the charge of the battery by pressing and holding the power button · If all the lights are green, you can be assured that the battery is charged above 75% (this
function is only activated when the battery is switched on)
IMPORTANT NOTE: As your battery ages, it will gradually lose capacity. With proper care and maintenance, your lithium ion battery will retain up to 70% of its capacity for about 500 full discharge/recharge cycles. As capacity diminishes, you will notice a gradual drop off in max range capability. When range falls to an unacceptable level, contact your local ONTIME dealer to purchase a new battery.
Please make sure you are gentle anytime you are inserting or removing the port’s charging cable. Failure to do so can result in damaged pins and poor connections.

BATTERY TRANSPORT
· Lithium-ion batteries are subject to many regulations and are often considered dangerous or hazardous materials by carriers. Be sure to check for relevant laws and ask the carrier for approval prior to shipping a Lithium-ion battery or transporting it by air

BATTERY D ISPOSAL
· Be a friend to the environment. Recycle your old batteries at a local battery recycle centre · Batteries should never be thrown in the garbage · Contact ONTIME for more information about how to recycle your batteries
Disposing of Lithium-Ion batteries incorrectly can allow moisture and oxygen to enter the battery. This can lead to the oxidation of lithium components and which can cause a heat reaction that may include fire or explosion. In addition overcharging, overheating, shock from dropping, or crushing can lead to a heat reaction. Batteries must always be recycled. They should not be thrown in the garbage.

LOCAL REGULATIONS
Generally, the regulations for ebikes throughout North America follow the same guidelines; however, there may be local differences such as where you can ride, minimum rider age, or required equipment and registration. Please follow the specific regulations for the use of an electric bicycle in your local municipality. It is the rider’s responsibility to know the local regulations that apply to an electric bicycle and to obey them.

ONTIME | PHANTOM EBIKE MANUAL | VERSION 1.0

GENERAL RID ING TIPS
Read, understand, and follow all of the instructions and safety precautions in this manual. 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 out of or as a result of using the bicycle. As with all mechanical components, your 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 the life of the component has been reached and should be replaced.
The pedal assist is activated as soon as you spin the pedals or stimulate the throttle, make sure you are firmly seated on the bike and have at least one brake engaged prior to engaging the motor. Failure to do so may result in injury or even death.
Electric bikes, like any other vehicle, require regular maintenance by mechanically inclined persons to guarantee safety of use. Screws and nuts are subject to become loose due to road vibration, especially within the first few kilometers of use. Make sure you inspect your bike often and have it serviced by a professional regularly.
Failure to wear a helmet and other recomended safety gear when riding an ebike can lead to serious injury or death.

ONTIME | PHANTOM EBIKE MANUAL | VERSION 1.0

· Always ride at a speed that’s appropriate for the conditions. Higher speed means higher risk
· Ensure brakes and motor cut off switch are working prior to every ride
· Ensure nothing is loose (ie bolts, battery, wheels, pedals, and handlebar) and everything is secured on the bike prior to every ride
· Always keep both hands on the handlebars and both feet on the pedals
· Do not operate if you are sleepy, sedated or while under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol · If motor speed is noticeably dropping while climbing a hill, assist the motor by pedaling
· Do not pedal around a corner as you may gain to much speed and lose control
· Always keep the brakes covered, and be prepared to stop in case of emergency
· Apply both brakes simultaneously and smoothly
· Make sure you clearly understand that it is very difficult for any vehicle to notice your presence, ALWAYS assume that you cannot be seen and dress in bright colours, reflective gear and use bright lights
· Ebikes are silent and move faster than people and traffic expect them to. Ensure those around you are aware you are approaching by ringing your bell and verbally address pedestrians when passing by, or when riding in areas where wildlife are located
· Wet weather impairs traction, braking and visibility, both for the cyclist and for other vehicles sharing the road. The risk of an accident is dramatically increased in wet conditions
· Reflectors are not a substitute for required lights. Riding at dawn, at dusk, at night or at other times of poor visibility without adequate bicycle lighting systems and without reflectors is dangerous and may result in serious injury
· Ensure your wheels are TRUED before each ride. Spin each wheel and check for brake clearance and side to side wobble. If a wheel wobbles side to side even slightly or rubs against or hits the brake pads, take the bike to a qualified bike shop to have the wheel trued
· Never ride with headphones. They mask traffic sounds and emergency vehicles sirens, distract you from concentrating on what is going on around you. Headphone wires can tangle in the moving parts of the bicycle, causing you to lose control
· Wear proper attire, including bright clothing, protective glasses, and sturdy shoes. Never wear a loose-fitting dress or long dress when riding as it can get caught in the moving parts of the bike and cause serious injury or even death
· Always wear an approved helmet and ensure it fits according to the manufacturers’ instructions. Ensure your helmet meets the latest certification standards and is appropriate for the type of riding you do and if there are any special requirements for riding an electric bike

ONTIME | PHANTOM EBIKE MANUAL | VERSION 1.0

12

· At temperatures below -10°C the motor grease might be too stiff for sudden throttle, high speed and high-power rides. Give the motor some low speed and low power spins and warm up the gears before going full power
· Avoid changing gears very rapidly from first gear to the last gear, or vice versa. If you change multiple gears too quickly, the chain may come off the front sprocket
· Never pedal backwards while shifting, this could jam the chain and cause serious damage · Never shift gears under heavy loads, this may break the chain. You must only apply just enough
force so that the gear can shift
2. 11. BIKE FIT
· It is important to ensure your ebike is a suitable size for you. Not only for your safety but also for your comfort. Incorrect sizing, seat height, and reach can lead to various ailments, such as knee pain, back pain, and groin pain. We recommend seeking professional help when choosing and setting up the right bike for yourself
· This is a general sizing chart that you can use to know what sizes are suitable for you
2 .11 .1. ONTIME PHONTOM
· Standover Height is the basic element of bike fit; it is the distance from the ground to the top of the bicycle frame, or the level your pelvic area reaches when straddling the bike
· Your bike should have a minimum standover height clearance of two inches (5cm) · To check for correct standover height, straddle the bike while wearing the shoes you plan to
wear while riding, and bounce vigorously on your heels. If your pelvic area touches the frame, the bike is too big for you and is therefore unsafe to ride

ONTIME | PHANTOM EBIKE MANUAL | VERSION 1.0

2.12. SAFE OPERATING CONDITIONS
CARRYING CARGO · Always ensure that any luggage or child seat is securely attached to the bike and there are
no loose cables. Carrying a load requires getting accustomed to. Practice maneuvering and braking on a flat, hazard and traffic free street with and without a load before going out into the road. Carrying a seated passenger or heavy load involves risks, foremost of which can be decreased braking power and increased stopping distance. The maximum weight capacity is 286lb shared between the rider and cargo
WEIGHT CAPACITY · ONTIME PHANTOM eBike IS designed with a maximum weight capacity of 86LB.
Exceeding the maximum weight capacity can result in damage to the bike, which can lead to serious injury or death
UNSAFE USE · This bike is not designed for any purpose other than commuting and cruising in a relaxed, safe
manner. Do not use this bike to jump over curbs, or ride on technical mountain /off-road trails

5.8. OPERATING RANGE
Expect a range of about 70 km with medium motor use, flat ground, light wind and for an average weight person.
The range on ebikes can vary greatly and are heavily dependent on these factors: · Battery age · Rider and luggage weight · Road conditions (gravel or smooth) · Tire condition and PSI · Wind speed and direction · Bike usage (heavy acceleration and high speeds will drain the battery
faster) · Road slopes or hills · Pedaling power and gear selection · Weather and temperature
5.9. MAXIMIZE YOUR RANGE
· Fully charge your battery before each ride · Ride in pedal-assist mode as much as you feel comfortable- the more you assist the motor, the
longer it will assist you · Service your bike periodically, ensuring bearings run smoothly and the brakes do not rub the
rotors or rims · Minimize the weight you carry · Lubricate the chain every few rides, more so if riding in the rain · Clean the drivetrain as often as you can and at least thoroughly clean it once a month · Avoid sudden starts and stops · Minimize use of the throttle · Check and adjust tire pressure

ONTIME | PHANTOM EBIKE MANUAL | VERSION 1.0

5.10. PRE-RID E CHECKLIST
Check if all the fasteners are tightened and not loose Check that brakes are functioning properly and that brake pads are positioned correctly Check alignment of handlebar and wheel Check tires are inflated with the correct pressure (3-4 bars) Check that tires have a good threat and no excessive wear Check that wheel spokes are not damaged or loose Check that handlebar and stem are aligned Check that bearing are lubricated and run freely without any grinding Check that pedals are tightened to the cranks Check that chain is clean, lubricated, and runs smoothly Check that frame is not bent or damaged Check that the hub motor is functioning smoothly and in good condition Check that battery has enough charging left on it Lock the battery and remove the key Check seat height Check lights and reflectors
