ASSEMBLING YOUR FUCARE FOR THE FIRST TIME

WARNING

• Please do not hold the brake levers before assembling the front wheel.
• When installing the fenders, please keep the eBike balanced.

How to assemble the fender

1. Locate the fender and headlight mounting hardware in the front fork arch
2. Pass the fender from the back of the front wheel, under the fork arch.
3. Install the fender/ headlight mounting hardware through the headlight bracket, fender, and fork.
4. Plug in the headlight connector. Line up the internal notch and pins and external arrows, and press directly together without twisting.
5. Check that the fender and headlight are centered, then torque the fender, and adjust the headlight angle slightly down so it will not blind oncoming traffic.
6. Remove the two mounting bolts on the fork lowers by turning them counter-clockwise to loosen.
7. Pass the bolts through the eyelets on the ends of the mounting arms, and re-attach them to the fork. Turn them counterclockwise to tighten.

WARNING

• If you are uncertain about any of the following instructions, or unfamiliar with bicycles or bicycle assembly,
• Please take your eBike and this manual to your local bike shop and have the assembly performed by a qualified bicycle mechanic. Failure to properly assemble your eBike could cause one or more parts of the bike to fail or to operate incorrectly, which could result in your injury or death.
• Install the wheel securely. A loose or detached wheel can cause you to lose control of your Fu care and fall and could cause you serious injury or death.

How to assemble the front wheel

1. Remove the shipping spacer, bolt and nut from the front wheel and fork.
2. Remove the hydraulic brake pad spacer from the brake caliper on the front wheel.

NOTICE: If the front wheel is not installed or if the hydraulic brake pad spacer is missing, do NOT squeeze the brake levers.

1. Check that the wheel is fully seated in the dropouts, that the wheel axle is level and parallel to the ground, and that the wheel is centered.
2. Make sure that the disc brake is well placed in the middle of the brake caliper.
3. Hold the quick-release lever in line with the axle and tighten the thumbnut until the lever can stay parallel to the floor without being held. Use the palm of your hand to close the lever fully, without touching the brake rotor. The quick-release lever secures the front wheel to the bike, so it’s important that the thumbnut is tight enough that the closed lever has the adequate clamping force to keep the axle and wheel firmly in place. When you close the lever, there should be enough resistance that it leaves an imprint in your hand.

WARNING: Please lock the screws after adjusting the angle of the handlebar.

How to assemble the handlebars

1. Point the headset towards the front of the bike
2. Remove 4 screws on the handlebar.
3. Orient the handlebar properly. The brake levers should face forwa rd and the shifter should be on the right side. Trace the brake housing from the left brake lever to the brake caliper and make sure the bundle of cables is not twisted.
4. Center the handlebar on the stem. Place the handlebar into position on the stem so it’s centered and so that the handlebar grips will be approximately parallel to the ground when the front wheel is installed. (You can fine-tune the positioning later.) Stem faceplate installation.
5. Install the stem faceplate. Place the stem faceplate ove r the handlebar, and thread in the four bolts by hand. If needed, rotate the UI Display to access the faceplate bolts.
6. Then use an Allen wrench to tighten the bolts evenly, by moving in an”X” pattern. Ensure the gap between the faceplate and stem is even.

WARNING: Do not try to install the wrong pedal into the crank, as it will strip the crank threads. Always check that the pedals are securely tightened before riding.

How to assemble the pedals

1. Take out the pedals from the tool kits. There should be an “L” marked on the left pedal and an “R” on the right pedal.
2. Each pedal can only be installed on the corresponding side of the bike, as they thread in opposite directions. The right pedal threads clockwise and the. The left pedal threads on it counter-clockwise.
3. The pedals should be easily turned into the crank, if it’s hard to in stall, please check the screw threads on the pedals and crank. Fucare will not cover the warranty if defects happen by mis-assembly.
4. Use a wrench to tighten the pedals.

WARNING: A loose seat clamp or seat adjustment bolt can cause loss of control, bike/property damage, serious injury, or death. Prior to first use, be sure to tighten the seat clamp via the seat adjustment bolt properly. Regularly check to make sure that the seat adjustment bolt is properly tightened and the clamp is secure on the seat rails.

How to assemble the saddle

1. Open the seat post quick release lever.
2. Insert the seat post into the seat tube to a sufficient depth so that the minimum insertion line is no longer showing.
3. When you are satisfied with the height of the seat post close the Seatpost quick-release lever. The tightness of the lever is adjusted by rotating the adjustment nut opposite the quick release lever. Turn the nut by hand to adjust the tension while holding the lever stable.
4. The lever is securely tightened when it leaves an imprint on the palm of your hand from pushing it closed.
5. Once the lever is securely closed, you should not be able to move it unless you open it again. If you can move the seat up and down or side to side with the quick release lever in the closed position, repeat the Seatpost installation process from step 3. Repeat until the seat cannot be moved when the quick release lever is closed.
6. If you have adjusted the nut too tightly and cannot push the lever to the “close” position, open the quick release lever again and turn the adjusting nut 1 /4 turn counterclockwise. Continue with Step 3. 14

Battery

Your eBike comes with two 48V lithium-ion batteries. They’re located underneath the saddle and top tube. Each battery has a unique set of keys and buttons that are used to turn it on / off as well as keep it unlocked/ locked to the frame. When the battery is set on the battery base, the keys can be inserted through a hole in the battery. The location of this hole can be seen in the photo below.

Please use the key to lock the battery on the frame. To power on/off the battery, please switch on/off button on the battery.

Unlock/ Lock

WARNING

• Please must plug the rubber cover into the charging port when finishing charging to avoid damage.
• Switch the button to II I II to power on the battery and switch to 11 0 11 to power off the battery.
• Be sure to switch the keys to unlocked and remove the keys from the battery before removing the battery from the bike. If the key is still at position Off or On, it will prevent it from being removed from the battery case. If it is forcibly removed, the key may be broken. The damage from such misuse is not under the Fucare 1s warranty.
• Make sure the battery is all the way locked in the frame and remove the keys before riding a Fucare ebike.

CHARGING YOUR BATTERY

Locate the charge port on the battery. The battery on the Fucare electric bike comes with almost a full charge. You should plug your battery in when you first receive it to ensure it is fully charged prior to your first ride.

• Do not leave your battery unattended while it is charging.
• The battery can be charged while attached or detached from the bike.
• Do not charge the battery with chargers other than the charger provided by Fucare eB ikes.
• Only charge the battery indoors in dry spaces which are not excessively hot or cold (Within 10°F of room temperature).
• Ensure there is no dirt, debris, or flammable items nearby when using the charger.
• The charger will automatically stop charging once the battery reaches its full capacity.
• The light on the charger will be red when the battery is charging and will turn green when charging has finished.
• Avoid leaving the charger plugged in when the battery is fully charged.
• Do not charge the battery if you notice the battery is damaged, excessively hot, leaking, smells, or is discolored.
• Charging the battery should take approximately 4-8 hours if the battery is mostly empty.
• Store the battery indoors in a dry space, away from heat or flame sources and out of direct sunlight.
• The charger may get hot(> l 6S°F) when charging. Use caution and avoid touching the body of the charger.

KEEPING YOUR BATTERY HEALTHY

• If you know you won’t be using the battery for more than a few days, keep it charged at about 75% capacity. At 75%, the battery will degrade less than at higher charge levels.
• Periodically check your battery’s charge level about once per month and charge back up to 75% if necessary.
• If you want to increase the number of cycles your battery will last, charge your battery to 7 00% a few hours before you plan to ride it. For example, if you ride the bike and the charge level falls to 50% but you plan to use the bike again in a few days, wait until the night before you plan to use it again to charge it up to 7 00%.
• When the battery is not in use this is healthier for the individual cells in the long term.

BATTERY SAFETY

• Do not submerge the battery in liquid of any kind.
• Do not touch the terminals at the back of the battery.
• Turn off the battery when not in use and before removing it from the bike.
• The battery should not be excessively difficult to attach or remove from the battery mount. Do not force the battery to avoid the risk of damage or personal injury.
• Battery charging times may increase with battery age and usage.
• Only grab the charger by the plug and not the cable when plugging and unplugging from the wall.
• If the battery has trouble charging, discontinue charging and contact Fucare EB ikes immediately.

When your battery has worn out and is no longer usable, dispose of your battery according to state and federal regulations. State regulations regarding battery disposal vary so it is important for you to find out the rules in your state. Lithium Ion batteries cannot be put in with normal garba get. Lithium Ion batteries can be dangerous. Take care when using and charging your battery. Failure to follow the above guidelines could result in damage to property and/or serious injury. Contact Fucare eB ikes immediately if you have any questions regarding battery safety.

YOUR FIRST RIDE

To use your electric bike

1. Read the entirety of this manual before taking your first ride. Especially the Safety, Folding and Unfolding the Bike, Preparing to Ride, and Operating Safety sections. The page number of these sections can be found by referring to the table of contents at the beginning of this manual.
2. Check that the tire and the tire bead are seated just inside the rim. Inflate your bike tires to a pressure that is within the recommended range printed on the side of the bike tire sidewalls. When inflating, gradually inflate in 5-1 0PSI increments while checking to make sure the tire bead is fully seated on the rim. If you notice the tire bead is not fully seated at any point during inflation, deflate the tire completely and reseat the tire bead before reinflating.
3. Check your seat post clamp. Unlatch the quick releases and tighten by turning the bolt clockwise. The page number of this section can be found by referring to the table of contents at the beginning of this manual.
4. Ensure both your seat post and handlebar stem are inserted past their minimum insertion points as indicated by the markings on them. Reference the Preparing to Ride section of this manual for photos and complete instructions.
5. Failure to insert past the minimum insertion point will place undue stress on these components increasing the risk of sudden failure and potentially resulting in harm, injury, or death.
6. Ensure your battery is fully charged before your first ride.
7. If the battery is not already placed at the battery base, slide it on the base and lock it in position. Make sure the battery is all the way set at the base. Once the battery is secured and set, insert the key into the battery via the port on the battery. See the Battery section of this manual for further information on the operation of the battery.
8. Hold down the power button on the button pad located on the left handlebar until th e display comes on.
9. Set the battery on the battery case and turn it to the ON position. You will not be able to remove the keys from the battery in this position.

Note

• The key has to be inside the battery and turned to the ON position in order to operate th e-bike. In this position, you will not be able to remove the key from the bike.
• Before transporting the bike on a bike rack, remove the battery from the bike.

1. Select a level of pedal assist using the plus and minus buttons on the button pad. The pedal assists level 1 is the lowest level of assist and the pedal assist level 5 is the, highest level of assist. Level zero will provide no assistance.
2. Turn off the power when the eBike is not in use. This will prevent accidental motor engagements from occurring.
3. The right handlebar features a thumb throttle. Press the throttle slowly according]to how much speed and acceleration you want to achieve. The deeper you press the throttle from its resting position, the more power propels the bike for reward. When the bike is at a complete stop, turn the display off. This will ensure that the motor will not activate until the display is turned back on and the rider is ready to go. ( Note: Exercise extreme caution using the thumb rattle. When at a complete stop with the bike turned on, be careful not to press the throttle unknowingly or the bike could throw you off balance and ca use serious harm, injury, or death.)
4. To turn on the headlight and tail light, press the light button on the right side of the button pad. The battery must be inside th e-bike. Use caution to not engage walk mode unknowingly. This mode is engaged by holding the minus button on th e display control pad and will engage the motor up to a walking speed.
