MOTOR CONTROL

Pedal Assist System (PAS)

The pedal assist system (PAS) augments your natural pedaling action by providing an additional boost from the motor. Using the “+” and “-“ buttons on the display, you can control the level of assistance provided by the motor. As the PAS level is increased, the amount of assistance increases and the faster you will go. The PAS setting will depend on several factors including, but not limited to:

• Riding terrain (flat vs. incline)
• Total payload
• Desired range

Throttle
The throttle provides an alternate way to power the motor if you do not want to pedal. If the bike is powered on, the throttle can be activated by slowly pushing the thumb pad down.
The throttle can also be used in addition to the pedal assist system. When only using the throttle, the maximum speed of the bike will be capped at 20MPH.

Notice: Using the bike in throttle-only mode will negatively impact the range of the battery vs. using pedal assist.

WARNING! Do not push the throttle when dismounted to avoid accidental acceleration of the bike.
