IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

Read and Understand Owner’s Manual Before Riding
Read this entire Owner’s Manual before you take the first ride on your new eBike and keep it for reference. This Owner’s Manual contains important safety, performance, and service information. The latest version of your manual is available at lectricebikes.com/manual
Like any sport, bicycling involves risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride a bicycle, you assume the responsibility of that risk: you need to know and practice the rules of safe and responsible riding as well as proper use and maintenance. Proper use and maintenance of your bicycle reduces the risk of injury. With an electric bike there is risk of fire or electric shock. If you have any questions or do not understand any aspect of using or maintaining your bike, take responsibility for your safety and consult with your local bicycle shop, or contact us for assistance.
This manual is not intended as a comprehensive use, service, repair or maintenance manual. Please see your local bicycle shop for all service, repairs, or maintenance. Your local bicycle shop may also be able to refer you to classes, clinics, or books on bicycle use, service, repair, and maintenance.
Your Lectric eBike (XP Trike) is classified as an EPAC (Electrically Power Assisted Cycle, otherwise known as a Pedelec), and is referred to in this manual as a bicycle unless otherwise noted.

Safety Messages

WARNING! To prevent serious injury or death:

  • Read all safety warnings and all instructions.

  • Always ride within your limits and the limits of your Lectric eBike.

  • Bicycles are only for use by persons 18 years of age and above. Riders must have the physical coordination, reaction, and mental capabilities to control a bicycle and manage traffic, in addition to managing road conditions and sudden situations with respect to the laws and instructions governing bicycle use. Persons with any mental or physical conditions that may make them susceptible to injury, impair their physical dexterity or mental capabilities
    to recognize, understand, and follow safety instructions—or understand the hazards inherent to its use—should not use or be permitted to use products inappropriate for their abilities.

  • Never ride under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.

  • Consult a doctor before using the device if you have any medical condition or issue that affects your ability to safely perform physical activities, or if you:

    • are or may be pregnant;
    • have heart, respiratory, back, joint, or other orthopedic conditions;
    • have high blood pressure;
    • have difficulty with physical exercise; or
    • have been instructed to restrict physical activity.
  • Always keep small parts away from children. Some eBike accessories may present a choking hazard to small children.

  • Never modify your frame or bicycle in any way. Do not sand, drill, file, or remove parts from your bicycle. Do not install incompatible components or hardware.

  • Always use proper lifting techniques to prevent injury. Your eBike may be significantly heavier than a bicycle without a battery pack and a motor.

  • Take responsibility for your own SAFETY. If you have any questions or do not understand any aspect of using or maintaining your bicycle, contact Lectric eBikes at [email protected] or call 602-715-0907.

Helmets

  • Always wear a helmet. Wearing a helmet properly may reduce the risk of a severe head injury. When riding, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds the standards of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Check the manual that comes with your helmet.
  • Ensure your helmet fits your head and is properly secured. If you attach a child’s seat to the bicycle, the child must wear a properly fitted helmet at all times.
  • Read your helmet manual to make sure it is adjusted properly according to the fitting instructions provided by the helmet manufacturer.
  • A proper-fitting helmet should be comfortable and should neither rock forward/backward nor side to side.

Follow eBike Regulations On and Off the Road
Be aware of eBike regulations in your area. Generally, the regulations for the use of an electric bicycle are the same
as those for a standard bicycle. However, there may be local differences such as where you can ride, minimum rider age, or required equipment and license and registration regulations. It is your responsibility to know the local regulations that apply to an electric bicycle and to obey them.

Ride at Your Own Risk and Use Common Sense

  • Always keep both hands on the handlebar grips and the brake levers so they are within reach while riding.
  • Do not ride distracted. Always remain alert to all riding conditions. Using the Display or other technology (including your mobile phone or music player) could distract you from riding. Only adjust the Display when stationary and in a safe start-up position.
  • Never use headphones or a cell phone to talk or text when riding.
  • Always ride defensively. Watch out for potential obstacles that could force you to swerve suddenly or lose control. Braking while steering may reduce your ability to control your bicycle.
  • Look ahead and brake sooner. You may be moving faster on your eBike, and it may be heavier compared to a bicycle, which means you may need to react and brake sooner when riding. Other road users may not expect you to be traveling at higher speeds. Riding faster may increase your risk of a crash.
  • Stop pedaling well before approaching corners to avoid entering a corner too quickly. You should also pay particular attention to terrain conditions as you may approach obstacles faster than expected.

Riding at Night

  • Riding at night comes with more risks than riding during the day due to decreased visibility; riders are encouraged to exercise increased caution in nighttime conditions.
  • Turn lights ON for safety. For increased visibility, ensure that the front headlight and rear taillight are turned ON and adjusted such that other people on the road can see them clearly. Also check your front and rear wheel reflectors.
  • Riders should wear reflective clothing at night. You may want to attach additional flashing lights to your clothing or helmet.

Riding in Wet Conditions

  • Use caution when riding in wet conditions as it will take longer to brake and to stop. Your tires may slip when turning. Risk of a crash is dramatically increased in wet conditions.
  • Your electric bicycle can withstand light rain and small splashes, but it is not designed to be subjected to inclement weather, extremely heavy showers, or submersion in water. The electric bike’s components have an IP rating of 65. Water damage is not covered under the warranty.

Pre-Ride Safety Checklist
Lectric eBikes recommends going through each item on the pre-ride safety checklist before and after each ride. Spending time to make sure all of the bike’s components are in good working order before a ride is a crucial step along the way to a safe and fun ride.
This checklist is not intended to function as a detailed service manual. Be sure to read your entire owner’s manual before riding or repairing your bike. If you do not have the expertise required to perform any of these checks, Lectric eBikes recommends having your local bike shop mechanic perform a detailed safety check of your bike in regular intervals. Ensure your local mechanic is experienced and reputable.

  • Before each ride, inspect your eBike for damage. If damage is found, do not ride.
  • Verify that the front and rear axles are secure.
  • Check that the front and rear tire pressure is within the recommended pressure range printed on the tire sidewall.
  • Pull the brake levers to ensure the brakes are working properly and adjust if necessary.
  • Visually inspect the bike for damage or anything out of the ordinary.
  • Turn on the lights, especially if riding at night.
  • Make sure all hardware is tightened to the recommended torque specifications found in “Tightening Torque” on page 27 of the owner’s manual.
  • Verify that the frame folding latch is securely closed and locked.
  • Verify that the stem folding latch is securely closed and locked.
  • Check that the handlebar stem is inserted past the minimum insertion point. The minimum insertion point is labeled near the bottom of the handlebar stem.
  • Check that the handlebar Stem Clamp Bolt is closed and tightened to 10-12 N•m and the Stem Riser is closed and tightened to 20 N•m or till it leaves an impression on your hand.
  • Check that the seat post is inserted past the minimum insertion point. The minimum insertion point is labeled on the seat post.
  • Check that the seat post collar and clamp are closed and tightened to 20 N•m (labeled as Seat Rail Binder in “Tightening Torque” on page 27) or till it leaves an impression on your hand.
  • Check that the seat cannot be twisted out of position, and set the height to a safe position that makes it easy to mount and dismount the bike.
  • Check the condition of the chain to see if it needs cleaning or lubrication.
  • Wear a helmet and high visibility clothing.
  • NEVER exceed the maximum total weight limit of 415 lbs. (188 kg). The rear rack can hold a maximum of 75 lbs. (34 kg). The front rack can hold a maximum of 35 lbs. (16 kg). The rider maximum weight is 330 lbs (150 kg). As an example, if you have 40 lbs (18 kg) of cargo, then the maximum weight of the rider remains 330 lbs (150 kg).
  • Only carry the cargo you need. More weight will drain the battery faster and affect how the bike handles.
  • Ensure all components are properly secured.
  • Make sure your battery is fully charged.

Stem Folding

How to Unfold the Stem
To unfold and secure in riding position:

  1. Begin with handlebars in the folded down position.
  2. Pull the handlebar stem to its upright position.
  3. Push the latch in firmly until it locks in position.
  4. Pull on the latch to confirm it is locked and the handlebars cannot fold.

If the latch does not stay locked, please contact the Lectric Customer Service department for adjustment instructions.

How to Fold the Stem
To fold the stem down:

  1. Pull up on the silver button labeled “open” to unlock the latch.
  2. Pull the latch away from the stem while still holding the “open” button.
  3. Fold the stem by lowering it to the side.

Adjust Handlebar Height

WARNING!

  • Always tighten fasteners to the correct torque to prevent serious injury or death. Bolts that are too tight can stretch and deform. Bolts that are too loose can move and fatigue. Either condition can lead to a sudden failure of the bolt and result in a crash. See “Tightening Torque” on page 27.
  • Always insert thet telescoping stem past the minimum insertion point marked on the stem. A stem that is positioned too high can damage the bike and can cause you to lose control and crash.

Select a height that is comfortable for you. DO NOT extend past the maximum extension point. To adjust your handlebars, unlatch the clamp. Move the handlebars to the desired height and close the clamp. Re-tighten the stem clamp to the recommended torque. See “Tightening Torque” on page 27.

Adjust Handlebar Position

  1. Use a 5mm hex key to loosen the four face plate bolts on top of the stem and move your bars to your desired position.
  2. Once your bars are in a good position, tighten the four face plate bolts on top of the stem to the value listed in “Tightening Torque” on page 27.

Adjust Seat Height

WARNING!

  • Always tighten fasteners to the correct torque to prevent serious injury or death. Bolts that are too tight can stretch and deform. Bolts that are too loose can move and fatigue. Either condition can lead to a sudden failure of the bolt and result in a crash. See “Tightening Torque” on page 27.
  • ALWAYS insert seat post past the minimum insertion point marked on the seat post. A seat post that is positioned too high can damage the bike and can cause you to lose control and crash.

Correct seat adjustment is an important factor in getting the most performance and comfort from your bicycle. If the seat position is not comfortable for you, you may want to go to your local bicycle shop for assistance.

To achieve correct seat height:

  • Sit on the seat;
  • Place one heel on a pedal;
  • Rotate the crank until the pedal with your heel on it is in the down position and the crank arm is parallel to the seat tube.

If your leg is not completely straight, your seat height needs to be adjusted. If your hips must rock for your heel to reach the pedal, the seat is too high. If your leg is bent at the knee with your heel on the pedal, the seat is too low.

To adjust seat height:

  • Loosen the seat post clamp. The open and closed positions of the seat post clamp are shown below (open position on left, closed position on right);
  • Raise or lower the seat post in the seat tube;
  • Check that the seat is straight before and after; and
  • Re-tighten the seat post clamp to the recommended torque. See “Tightening Torque” on page 27.

Adjust Seat Position

WARNING! Always tighten fasteners to the correct torque to prevent serious injury or death. Bolts that are too tight can stretch and deform. Bolts that are too loose can move and fatigue. Either condition can lead to a sudden failure of the bolt and result in a crash. See “Tightening Torque” on page 27.

Front and back adjustment:
Loosen 14mm nuts on both sides of the seat with a 14mm socket or box wrench. Make sure the clamp mechanism is clamping on the straight part of the seat rails and is not touching the curved part of the rails. Ensure that you are using the recommended torque on the clamping fastener(s). See “Tightening Torque” on page 27.

Seat angle adjustment:
Most people prefer a horizontal seat; but you may prefer the seat nose angled slightly up or down. Loosen the clamp bolt to allow any serrations on the clamp mechanism to disengage before changing the seat angle, and to fully re- engage the serrations before you tighten the clamp bolt to the recommended
“Tightening Torque” on page 27.

WARNING! Never modify your frame or bicycle in any way as this could cause serious injury or death. Do not sand, drill, file, or remove parts from your bicycle. Do not install incompatible components or hardware.

Motor

WARNING! To prevent serious injury or death:

  • Do not open the drive unit yourself. The drive unit must only be repaired by qualified personnel using only original parts. This will ensure that the safety of the drive unit is maintained. Unauthorized opening of the drive unit will render warranty claims null and void.
  • All components fitted to the drive unit and all other components of your Lectric eBike PAS system (e.g. chainring, chainring receptacle, pedals) must only be replaced with identical components or components that have been specifically approved by Lectric eBikes. This should help protect the motor from overloading.
  • Always remove the battery pack from your Lectric eBike before beginning work (e.g. inspection, repair, assembly, maintenance, work on the chain, etc.), moving it with a car or on an airplane, or storing it. Battery pack removal should prevent unintentional activation of your Lectric eBike.
  • Do not make any modifications to your Lectric eBike or attach any other products that might increase the performance of your Lectric eBike. Doing so will generally reduce the service life of the system and risks damaging the drive unit and the bicycle. You also run the risk of losing the guarantee and warranty claims on the bicycle you have purchased. By handling the system improperly, you are also endangering your safety and that of other road users, thus running the risk of high personal liability costs and possibly even criminal prosecution in the event of accidents that can be attributed to manipulation of the bicycle.
  • Under extreme conditions, such as continuously high loads at low speed when riding up hills or carrying loads, parts of the motor can reach high temperatures.

Throttle
The right handlebar features a half-twist throttle.

To operate:
Check that the Pedal Assist (PAS) level is set above 0, then twist the throttle back slowly to achieve your desired speed and acceleration.

Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Your Lectric XP Trike is equipped with hydraulic disc brakes.

WARNING! To prevent serious injury or death:

  • ALWAYS apply right brake lever (rear wheels) before and during use of the front brake.
  • ALWAYS apply even pressure to both brake levers when slowing down or stopping.

If only the front brake is applied while slowing or stopping quickly, you may be ejected over the front handlebars.
Before riding, check to ensure the brake levers do not touch the handlebars when fully applied. If either lever touches the handlebars, call Lectric eBikes to determine next steps. You will likely need your brakes bled.

To brake the rear wheels:
Pull right brake lever to activate rear brakes.

To brake the front wheel:
Pull left brake lever to activate front brake.

Disc brake rotors will become hot during use and will stay hot for a short period after use. To prevent burns, do not touch the disc rotor right after use.

Front and Rear Lights

Pedal Assist Overview

When does the Pedal Assist activate?
Pedal Assist (PAS) functions only when you are pedaling. If you do not pedal, the PAS will not activate. The motor output always depends on your pedaling and the PAS level you have set. PAS automatically switches off at the maximum speed set for your Lectric eBike (up to 14 mph). When the speed falls below the maximum set speed, PAS automatically becomes available again.
You can also use your Lectric eBike as a normal bicycle without assistance at any time, either by switching the Cockpit System power button OFF, or by setting PAS to 0. If the battery needs to be charged, PAS will not function.
When the bicycle has not been used for 10 consecutive minutes, the display will automatically shut down. The PAS and throttle features will no longer work when the display is OFF.

WARNING! To prevent serious injury or death:

  • Do not allow yourself to be distracted by the display. If you do not concentrate on the traffic around you, you risk being involved in a crash. If you want to change any settings other than the PAS level, always stop before changing the settings or display.
  • Set the display brightness such that you can adequately see important information like speed or warning symbols. Display brightness that is incorrectly set can result in dangerous situations.
  • The electrical components on the bicycle are not waterproof. The electrical components on the bike have an IP rating of 65.
  • Check the display and plug. If damage is detected, do not use the display. A damaged display or cables or plugs increase the risk of a fire, explosion and personal injury.
  • Do not disassemble the display. There are no user serviceable parts inside the display. Incorrect reassembly or damage may result in fire or explosion.

Parking Brake
Your bike is equipped with a front and rear parking brake. Activate by squeezing the brake lever in all the way and then pressing your parking latch into place. Squeeze the brake lever to release.

Cruise Control
Cruise control on your Lectric XP Trike works similarly to cruise control on a car. The bike will try to maintain a speed based on the position of the throttle when cruise control was activated. For example, if the throttle is twisted all the way from its resting position (to a position that would normally maintain 12 mph) and the minus button is held, cruise control will be activated and set at 12 mph. Even if the bike is currently going slower than 12 mph, the bike will try to accelerate and maintain that speed because it was set based on that throttle position.

To activate cruise control:
Hold the minus (-) button while twisting the throttle.
To cruise at low speeds, only slightly twist the throttle and hold the minus (-) button.
NOTE: When Cruise Control is active, “Cruise” will appear on the display.

To deactivate cruise control:
Pull either brake lever to disengage Cruise Control.

PREPARING TO RIDE

WARNING!
To prevent serious injury or death, go through the “Pre-Ride Safety Checklist” on page 8 of your Owner’s Manual before each ride.

YOUR FIRST RIDE
The acceleration of your Lectric eBike may be faster than anticipated, and may feel unusual at first. Before your first ride, you should use the lowest level of pedal assist (PAS 1) and become familiar with the operation of your Lectric eBike by practicing starting, stopping, cornering, and navigating obstacles in a safe environment away from other bicycles, pedestrians, and/or vehicles. You should also pay particular attention to terrain conditions as you may approach obstacles faster than expected.
The Pedal Assist may be activated as soon as you step onto the pedals and the bicycle is in motion. ALWAYS be seated on the bicycle and engage at least one brake before starting to pedal. DO NOT place one foot on a pedal then throw your other leg over the bicycle or your eBike could accelerate unexpectedly. Refer to “Pre-Ride Safety Checklist” on page 8 before you go on your first ride.

How to Start Your Ride

  1. Insert key and turn counterclockwise to the LOCK position.

  2. Hold down the button located on the left handlebar until the display comes on.
    NOTE: After 48 hours of inactivity, the battery will go into sleep mode. In this scenario, it is required to click the button on top of the battery before powering the bike on.

  3. Select a Pedal Assist (PAS) level using the plus (+) and minus (-) buttons. PAS 0 provides no motor assist. PAS 1 is the lowest level of assist and PAS 5 is the highest level of assist.

WARNING! To prevent serious injury or death:

  • Exercise extreme caution when using the twist throttle. When at a complete stop with the bicycle turned ON, be careful not to twist the throttle or the bicycle could accelerate and cause you to crash.
  • Do not engage Walk Mode when riding or sitting on your Lectric eBike. Holding the minus (-) button will engage the motor up to a walking speed.

How to End Your Ride:
When the bicycle is at a complete stop, press and hold the button to turn the display OFF. This ensures the motor will not activate until the display is turned ON again and you are ready to ride.

BATTERY PACK

The term battery pack refers to all original Lectric eBikes battery packs.
The safety of both our customers and our products is important to us. Our eBike batteries are lithium-ion batteries, which have been developed and manufactured in accordance with the latest technology. We comply with or exceed the requirements of all relevant safety standards. When charged, these lithium-ion batteries contain a high level of energy. If a fault occurs (which may not be detectable from the outside), in very rare cases and under unfavorable conditions, lithium-ion batteries can catch fire.
Take care when using and charging your battery. Failure to follow the guidelines below could result in damage to property and/or serious injury. Contact Lectric eBikes immediately if you have any questions regarding battery safety.
Your Lectric eBike battery must not be opened, even for repairs. There is a risk your eBike battery could catch fire, e.g. due to a short circuit. This risk increases if an eBike battery which has already been opened is reused at a later point in time. Do not attempt to repair an eBike battery in the event of a fault. Have it replaced with an original Lectric eBike battery pack.
The battery is protected against deep discharge, overloading, overheating, and short-circuiting by Electronic Cell Protection (ECP). In the event of a fault, a protective circuit switches the battery pack off automatically.

Moving and Storage Instructions

Charging Battery Pack Before and During Storage
When the battery pack will not be used for weeks or months, remove it from the eBike and store the battery pack at about 60 % charge as indicated by the Energy Bar on the display. At about 60% charge, the battery will degrade less, compared to higher charge levels.
Every 2-3 months check the battery charge level and recharge to 60%, if necessary.

Note: If the battery is stored with no charge for an extended period of time, it may be damaged despite the low self-discharge and may reduce the battery capacity.
For optimum service life for your battery pack, charge the battery pack to 100% a few hours before you plan to ride. For example, if you ride the bicycle and the charge level falls to 50% but you plan to use the bicycle again in a few days, wait until the day before you plan to use it again to charge it to 100%.
DO NOT charge battery unattended or leave battery connected to charger overnight.

Leaving the battery permanently connected to the charger is not recommended.
As the battery pack ages, capacity will diminish and the battery pack will eventually need to be replaced. A significantly reduced operating period after charging indicates that the battery pack is worn out and must be replaced. You may replace it yourself by purchasing a replacement battery pack from Lectric eBikes.

Storage Conditions

If possible, store the battery pack in a dry, well-ventilated place. Protect it from moisture and water.
Always store your Lectric eBike battery pack in a location that:
