CAUTION: Ensure full compliance with local law.

Risk of fines and confiscation!
Before riding the bike, make sure the bike aligns with the standards of your local law. Reflectors are not a substitute for required lights. Riding at dawn, at dusk, at night or at other times of poor visibility without an adequate bicycle lighting system and without reflectors is dangerous and may result in serious injury or death. If your bicycle does not fit properly, you may lose control and fall. Bolts that are too tight can stretch and deform. Do not expose your battery to high temperatures. Riding with improperly adjusted brakes or worn brake pads is dangerous and can result in serious injury or death. Never inflate a tire beyond the maximum pressure marked on the tire’s sidewall or the wheel rim. If the maximum pressure rating for the wheel rim is lower than the maximum pressure shown on the tire, always use the lower rating. Exceeding the recommended maximum pressure may blow the tire off the rim or damage the wheel rim, which could cause damage to the bike and injury to the rider and bystanders. The best and safest way to inflate a bicycle tire to the correct pressure is with a bicycle pump which has a built-in pressure gauge. Applying brakes too hard or too suddenly can lock up a wheel, which could cause you to lose control and fall. Sudden or excessive application of the front brake may pitch the rider over the handlebars, which may result in serious injury or death. Stop the charging procedure immediately if you notice a strange smell or smoke.

Pumping a bicycle tire

To pump your tires, you will need:
Bicycle pump with Presta valve compatibility or Presta valve adapter (if your pump does not have a built-in Presta valve head) not included.

How to pump a tire

• If your pump has a dual head (fits both Presta and Schrader valves), make sure it’s set up for Presta valves. If your pump is not Presta-compatible, you’ll need a Presta valve adapter. Attach the adapter to the pump head.
• On the bicycle, unscrew the small nut at the top of the Presta valve by turning it anti-clockwise. This allows the valve to open and allows air to flow into the tire.
• Press down on the Presta valve to release a small amount of air. This helps ensure that the valve is not stuck and allows the pump to engage properly.
• Press your pump onto the Presta valve as far as you can.
• If your pump has a lever, flip it down to secure the pump head onto the Presta valve. This creates an airtight seal.
• Begin pumping air into the tire.
• Once you’ve reached the desired tire pressure, disconnect the pump head by releasing the lever or unscrewing it.
• Screw the small nut at the top of the Presta valve clockwise to close it.

Charging your battery

• The charger is rated for 100–240V. Be sure to check the charger, the charger cables, and the battery for damage before beginning each charge.
• Charging takes about 3–4 hours. On rare occasions, it may take longer to fully charge the battery, particularly when the bike is new or left unused for a long time.
• Only charge the battery with the supplied charger, as others may cause damage to the battery or increase the possibility of fire or explosion.
• While the charger is designed to automatically stop charging once the battery is full, do not leave it plugged in for more than 12 hours.
• Make sure your charger is isolated from liquids, dirt, and debris.

The range on one charge strongly depends on several circumstances, such as (but notlimited to):

• Weather conditions, such as ambient temperature and wind;
• Road conditions, such as elevation and road surface;
• Bike conditions, such as tire pressure and maintenance level;
• Bike usage, such as acceleration and shifting;
• Rider and luggage weight;
• Amount of charge and discharge cycles;
• Age and condition of battery.

Charger notes

• The charger should only be used indoors in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area on a flat, stable, hard surface.
• Avoid exposing the charger to liquids, dust, debris, or metallic objects. Do not cover the charger with anything while in use.
• Store and use the charger in a safe area away from children.
• Charging the battery to full before each use helps to prolong its lifespan and reduces the risk of over discharge.
• Do not use any charger other than the original charger you received with your order or a charger designed specifically for the particular bike that you purchased directly from SHARP.
• This charger is designed for standard household AC power sockets with 110-240V 50/60 Hz input voltage, and it automatically detects and calculates the input voltage. Do not attempt to open the charger or modify the voltage input.
• Do not yank or pull on the charging cable. When unplugging, pull on the plastic plug to carefully remove the AC/DC cable.
• It is normal for the charger to become moderately warm during charging. If the charger is too hot to touch, or if you smell an odor or notice any other signs of overheating, stop using the charger and contact the SHARP Service Center.
• Keep the indicator facing up when using the charger. Do not invert the charger, as this can inhibit cooling and shorten its lifespan.
• Only use the original charger provided by SHARP or one designed for your specific bike model that is approved by SHARP. Do not use aftermarket chargers, which may cause damage, serious injury, or death.
• Not following the battery charging information listed here may cause unnecessary damage to the charging components, battery, or charger and may result in poor battery performance or failure to work properly. Battery damage incurred this way is not covered by warranty.

Balancing your battery
When you first receive your bike, it is important to follow these steps to ensure that your battery cells are properly balanced in order to keep them as efficiently as possible.

1. For the first initial charge upon receiving your bike (or after prolonged storage time), be sure to charge the battery for at least 4 hours before riding.
   NOTE: We recommend letting the battery charge for at least 4 hours for the first three charges to ensure that the cells balance properly.

2. After the first three rides, you may begin routine charging procedures.

Checking the electric drive system

• Check all cables to ensure that there is no damage.
• Examine the display for cracks and damage. Check if it is firmly in place.
• Check the control unit for cracks and damage. Check if it is firmly in place.
• Check the rechargeable battery to ensure that there is no damage.
• Check that all plug contacts are correctly in place and reconnect them if necessary.
• Check the cable and the outer casing to confirm that there is no damage.
• Check the motor to ensure that there is no damage.

Cleaning

• Always turn the battery off and remove the charger from the charge port and wall socket before cleaning the battery or bicycle.
• Use a dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning the battery or bicycle frame. If there is dirt in or around the charge port, trying using low air pressure or a soft brush to remove it. For instructions on how to clean drivetrain components, please refer to the drivetrain manufacturer’s instructions.
• When cleaning, make sure the charge port on the bicycle is fully closed and no water comes into contact with the electrical components. If wet, leave the charge port open to dry out completely before connecting the charger.
• Be careful not to damage or expose electrical components to water. Do not pressure wash your battery, motor, or any other electrical components. Damaging electrical components or exposing them to water may start a fire which can result in serious injury or even death. Do not use or charge a battery you believe had water seep inside. Likewise, all connectors, including the charge port, must be completely dry and clean before using or charging the bicycle.
• Do not use alcohol, solvents, or abrasive cleaners to clean the charger. Instead, use a dry or slightly damp cloth. Surface cleaning the bike ONLY.

Service Info
WARNING
TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCES HAVE MADE BICYCLES AND BICYCLE COMPONENTS MORE COMPLEX, AND THE PACE OF INNOVATION IS INCREASING.
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THIS MANUAL TO PROVIDE ALL THE INFORMATION REQUIRED TO PROPERLY REPAIR AND/OR MAINTAIN YOUR BICYCLE.
To help minimize the chances of an accident and possible injury, you must have any repair or maintenance, including those not specifically described in this manual, performed by a professional. Equally important is that your individual maintenance requirements will be determined by everything from your riding style to geographic location. Consult a professional for help in determining your maintenance requirements.

WARNING
MANY BICYCLE SERVICE AND REPAIR TASKS REQUIRE SPECIAL KNOWLEDGE AND TOOLS.
Do not begin any adjustments or service on your bicycle until you have learned from a professional how to properly complete them. Improper adjustment or service may result in damage to the bicycle or in an accident which can cause serious injury or death.

If you want to learn to carry out major service and repair work on your bike, you have three options:

1. Ask the Service Center for copies of the manufacturer’s installation and service instructions for the components on your bike or contact the component manufacturer.
2. Ask the Service Center to recommend a book on bicycle repair.
3. Ask the Service Center about the availability of bicycle repair courses in your area.

We recommend that you ask a professional to check the quality of your work the first time you work on something and before you ride the bike, just to make sure that you did everything correctly. Since that will require the time of a mechanic, there may be a modest charge for this service. We also recommend that you ask a professional for guidance on obtaining spare parts, such as inner tubes, light bulbs, etc., as it would be useful once you have learned how to replace such parts when they require replacement.
