    • Do not throw the battery into the fire, the battery may explode or leak.
    • Do not dispose of batteries in your regular household garbage.

Use of the Brakes

Instruction:

• The brake is used to control the speed, not just to stop the bike. The maximum braking force of the wheel is available before the wheel “lock” (standstill) and subsequent slip. Once the tires skid, you will lose most of your braking power and any control of the bike. You must practice braking
  and stop gently, without jamming the wheel. This technique is called progressive brake modulation.

• Push the brake lever towards the handlebars and gradually increase the braking power.

• If you feel the wheel jam, reduce the braking force so the wheel can continue to spin without jamming.

Precautions for Brakes

1. Minimize frequent braking and frequent starting to save power under the premise of ensuring safety.
2. Increase the braking distance on rainy days or in wet conditions, as humidity will slow down the brake response. After riding, clean and dry the bike and store it in a safe place.
3. Do not make sharp turns at high speeds or brake sharply on slippery surfaces, as these actions can easily cause the bike to slip out of control.

Use of Shift Lever

Instruction:

• The shift lever shall be used during riding. When the bike is stationary, do not turn the shift lever to avoid damaging your bike.
• When the right shift lever is shifted forward (The tap position is changed from position 7 to position 1), the rear shift lever will move inwards, and the shifting chain will move from the small piece of the rear Cassette to the large piece at the same time, which will reduce the riding speed while reducing the pedaling strength of riding.
• When the lever is at the maximum position (Tap position 1), press the acceleration button on the right shift lever. The rear shift lever will move from the inside to the outside, and the shift chain will move from the large piece of the Cassette to the small piece position, which will increase the speed of riding and will also increase the pedaling strength of the riding, so as to realize the shifting process of the rear shift lever.

Use of Front Fork

1. Instruction:

   • The suspension fork can move up and down up to 80mm to cushion bumps on the riding surface, which can make for a smoother and more comfortable ride on rough roads or hills.
   • Depending on the rider’s preference, the fork can be locked into a rigid fork, which usually produces higher pedaling efficiency.

2. Adjustment:

3. T he preload adjustment knob 1 ： located at the  top of the left side of the suspension fork.
   To soften the ride, reduce the drag by turning the preload adjustment knob counterclockwise, decreasing the drag in the direction of the small “-” on the knob. To make the suspension more comfortable over bumpy roads, turn the preload adjustment knob clockwise to increase resistance in the direction of the small “+” on the knob.

4. The lockout lever 2：l ocated at the top of the right side of the suspension fork.
   It can be turned counterclockwise until it stops to fully lock the suspension fork’s travel. To unlock the locking lever, turn the knob clockwise until it stops. When the locking lever is unlocked, the resistance can be adjusted by turning it.
   NOTE: When the fork is shipped from the warehouse, its functions are set up to fit most people. If you do not have riding and debugging experience, please do not operate it freely, so as not to cause damage to the fork lock and affect your normal use.

Daily Cleaning

1. When you don’t have much mud on your ebike, use a rag to clean the dust.
2. When there is a lot of mud on your e-bike, use a brush dipped in soapy water to clean it. Wash it off, rinse it with a little water, and then dry it with a soft cloth.
3. Check the wear level of the brake pads after cleaning to see if they can guarantee normal braking effect. If they are badly worn, they should be replaced in time.
4. If you plan not to ride the bike for a long time, you need to clean the bike before you put it into storage.
5. Please do not use alcohol, gasoline, kerosene or other corrosive and volatile chemical solvents to clean the bike to prevent damage.
6. Please do not use a high-pressure water gun to clean your bicycle. This is because it may damage the mechanic spindle and related mechanical parts.
7. During the cleaning process, make sure the bike is turned off, the charging cable is unplugged and the rubber cover is closed, as leaking water may cause electric shock or other major problems.
8. If the paint has scratches or chipped metal, use touch-up paint to prevent rusting (clear nail polish can also be used as a preventive measure).

Daily Parking & Storage

Follow these basic parking, storage, and Transport tips to make sure your bike is well taken care of on and off the road.

1. When walking with the bike, turn off the power to avoid accidental acceleration or use the walk mode.
2. Though the bike is waterproof (IPX4 waterproof), do not immerse the bike or any parts in water, the electrical system may be damaged.
3. Store in a sheltered place and avoid prolonged exposure to cold or inclement weather. If exposed to rain or excessive moisture, dry the bike afterward and rust-proof the chain and any other unpainted steel surfaces
4. When parked, turn off the electric system to conserve power, take the key off the bike, and make sure the battery is secured and locked to the frame
5. Always lock your bike to prevent theft.

Motor Care & Maintenance

1. The brushless motor is not waterproof, so avoid riding in water deeper than the lower edge of the electric hub to avoid motor failure.
2. Check your motor frequently and tighten any loose screws or nuts to prevent the vehicle from failing due to disconnected wires.
3. Use the pedals to assist the motor when climbing hills and accelerating from a stop.
4. Usually accelerate at a moderate speed, not violently, and do not climb too high to ensure that the hub motor does not overheat or due to excessive load.

Battery Care & Maintenance

1. After riding a certain distance every day, charge the battery, otherwise it will reduce its service life.
   • Charge the battery when the battery level is between 30% and 50%.
   •  Make sure the battery is not completely discharged (deep discharge).
2. If the bike is not used for a long time (to store the battery for more than two months), please pay attention to do regular charging to maintain your battery, otherwise it will reduce the service life or cause the battery to be damaged and unusable. Please perform the following operations:
   • Fully charge the battery and remove the battery.
   • Fully charge the battery and remove the battery.
   • Make sure there is no visible damage to the battery.
   • Do not expose the battery to direct sunlight or heat. Store the battery in a dry, low-humidity location to protect it from extreme temperature fluctuations.
   • Make sure stored batteries are charged every three months.
3. It is normal for the capacity of the battery to slowly decline during use, and eventually the end of life cannot be recovered.

Chains Care & Maintenance

1. It is recommended to clean the chain after each ride, especially in rainy and humid conditions. Wipe the chain and its accessories with a dry cloth and use a brush to remove sand and dust stuck in the chain.
2. Do not use strong acid or strong alkali cleaners (such as rust remover) because these chemicals can damage the chain.
3. Apply lubricant after cleaning to avoid rusting. First, make sure the chain is dry, then apply the lubricant into the bearings.
4. To prevent unnecessary chain wear, try to keep the chain in a vertical position when shifting gears (don’t use the smallest cog with the smallest flywheel, or the largest cog with the largest flywheel, etc.) Apply lubricant after  cleaning to avoid rusting.

Fork Suspension Care & Maintenance

1. Keep your fork clean, use a clean cloth to wipe including the inner tube and the fork shoulder joint.
2. It is recommended to use a fork dust cover to protect the inner tube of the fork. This can prevent dust from entering and also prevent hard objects from hitting the inner tube
3. Don’t use high-pressure water gun or long time to rinse your fork, so as not to damage the oil seal and dust seal after the water gets into the dust seal.

Brakes Care & Maintenance

1. The brakes should be inspected periodically and replaced if the brake pads are contaminated or less than 2.5 mm thick.
2. The efficiency of the brakes may decrease over time due to wear and tear. When you notice a lack of braking power, we recommend that you have the brakes checked, repaired or replaced (if necessary) by a professional.
3. Cleaning is a very important part of any brake maintenance. If the brake pads or rotors are  contaminated with oil, or if the hydraulic system is contaminated with contaminants, braking performance will be greatly affected.
