- Choose a suitable position on your e-bike's handlebars for both the display unit and the control panel. Ensure they are easily accessible and do not obstruct your view or control of the bike.
- Use the provided mounting clamps and screws to securely attach the display unit to the handlebar. Tighten the screws firmly but do not overtighten.
- Attach the control panel to the handlebar next to the display unit, ensuring its cable can reach the display's connection port without strain.
6.2. Wiring Connections
The KD716 display unit connects to your e-bike's controller system via two circular connectors located at the rear of the display.
- Ensure your e-bike's power is OFF.
- Carefully align and connect the corresponding cables from your e-bike's controller to the two circular ports on the back of the KD716 display unit. These are typically for power and data communication.
- Ensure the connections are secure and fully seated to prevent intermittent operation.
- Once connected, you can route the cables neatly along the handlebars and frame, securing them with cable ties if necessary.

7.3. Adjusting Assist Levels
The KD716 display typically allows you to adjust the pedal assist level. While specific buttons for this are not visible on the control panel, this function is usually integrated with the 'i' button or a combination of buttons. Refer to your e-bike's main controller manual for specific instructions on changing assist levels if not directly controlled by the KD716's visible buttons.
7.4. Headlight Control
- If your e-bike's lighting system is connected to and compatible with the display, press the Light button (headlight icon) to turn the headlights ON or OFF.
8. Maintenance

- Connections: Periodically check all cable connections to ensure they are secure and free from corrosion.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the e-bike and display in a dry, temperate environment.
- Water Exposure: The display is designed to be weather-resistant, but avoid submerging it in water or exposing it to high-pressure water jets.
9. Troubleshooting
- Display Not Turning On:
- Check if the e-bike's main battery is charged and turned on.
- Verify all cable connections to the display unit are secure.
- Ensure the power button is pressed and held for the required duration.
- Incorrect Speed Reading:
- Check the speed sensor and magnet on your wheel for proper alignment and function.
- Ensure the wheel size setting in the e-bike controller (if applicable) is correct.

- This is typically an issue with the e-bike's controller or motor, not the display. However, ensure the display is powered on and showing an assist level greater than '0'.
- Buttons Not Responding:
- Check for any physical obstructions or damage to the buttons.
- Ensure the control panel cable is securely connected to the display.
10. User Tips
