Quick Start Guide
CONGRATULATIONS AND THANK YOU FOR BECOMING THE PROUD OWNER OF A UNIQUE
WILDSYDE® VINTAGE ELECTRIC CLASSIC BICYCLE!
PLEASE READ ‘UNPACKING & ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS’ IF THE E-BIKE REQUIRES
ASSEMBLY.
Whilst your battery is charging, now is a good opportunity to read this Quick
Start Guide carefully and familiarize yourself with the controls and
functions. Use the accompanying manual to help you.
FULLY CHARGE BATTERY BEFORE USE
Before your first ride, charge the battery for 6-8 hours until the charging
indicator light has turned green. Plug charging cable into charging point on
side of battery casing (as shown) and connect to AC.
Or, remove the battery and charge indoors (see page 4). Then, prepare to ride
until the battery discharges to 20% (1 bar) on your first ride then repeat the
charge/ discharge process for the next 3 rides to optimize battery life and
performance.
COCKPIT CONTROLS & FUNCTIONS
1. POWER ON/OFF & TOGGLE MODE BUTTON
Your electric bike is started and switched off using the battery key and
rubber embossed POWER/MODE button ‘M’. Turn the key to 12 o’clock, and push
and hold the POWER/MODE button. The display will light up, indicating the bike
is now ON. Turn the key to 11 o’clock for the OFF position.
2. PEDAL ASSIST (PAS) UP/DOWN ARROW BUTTONS
Pedal Assist will automatically begin to work as soon as you start pedaling.
Push the UP arrow for more power and easier riding, and the DOWN arrow for
less power and harder riding. PAS levels go from 1-to 5 and are displayed on
the bottom left of the LCD display.
3. HEADLIGHT & TAILLIGHT
Lights share the UP arrow button with PAS. Push and HOLD the UP arrow button
to switch on both headlight and taillight. The LCD display will also
illuminate. Push and hold the UP arrow again to switch both lights off.
4. POWER GLIDE
Power Glide shares the DOWN arrow button with PAS. Push and HOLD the DOWN
button to engage the ‘Power Glide System.’ The bike will move forward at up to
3mph for a few seconds to assist in walking the bike when required.
5. BELL
A traditional vintage bell to warn pedestrians & traffic of your approach.
6 & 7. BRAKES
All Wildsyde® E-Classics are equipped with mechanical disc brakes and motor
inhibitors. When either front, rear, or both brakes are applied, the
inhibitors automatically disable power to the motor until the brakes release.
POWER RUN-ON
It is normal for the bike to ‘run on’ as power momentarily dissipates from the
electric motor after pedaling. Be sure to anticipate this, applying the brakes
as necessary.
8. LCD DISPLAY
Includes Battery Capacity Level, PedalAssist (PAS), Speed, Trip/ Total
Distance, and Wattage. Refer to the manual. 
10 & 11. GEARS UP & DOWN
Change between 1-7 gears using the (+) button and (–) lever on the right side
of the handlebars. Use lower gears at slower speeds and vice versa.
12. THROTTLE (CLASS 2)
Carefully press throttle with your thumb for instant acceleration without
pedaling, making sure to release when you reach the desired speed.
B. SEAT ADJUSTMENT
To adjust the seat post to the required height, undo the seat post clamp
lever, slide the saddle up or down to the desired height and then close the
lever on the seat clamp securely.
C. TIRE PRESSURES
Ensure tires are inflated to recommended 2545psi depending on rider weight,
type of tires, and terrain.
Please refer to the manual for more advice.
REMOVING THE BATTERY
Remove the battery from its mounting location to charge separately, and/or to
avoid exposure to unnecessary excessive heat or cold. To remove, insert the
key (supplied), move all way left to unlock/unlatch and lift by the handle to
remove. (It may be necessary to raise the seat to remove the battery). See the
manual for more information.
PLAN YOUR RIDE
Ensure to plan your rides that leave enough battery power for your return
journey or to a destination where the bike can be recharged. As a guide, a
fully charged battery can provide a range of 30-40 miles of smooth riding with
PAS. Please refer to the manual for more information.
ALWAYS WEAR A HELMET
Always wear an approved helmet when riding your bike, and follow the helmet
manufacturer’s instructions for fit, use, and care.
