3.1 Powering On/Off
To power on the e-bike system, press and hold the power button on the LED display unit located on the handlebar. The display will light up, indicating the system is active. To power off, press and hold the same button until the display turns off.
3.2 Electric Assist Modes
The ZÜNDAPP Green 7.7 features multiple electric assist modes to provide varying levels of motor support. Use the '+' and '-' buttons on the display unit to cycle through the assist levels (e.g., Eco, Normal, Sport). Higher assist levels provide more power but consume battery faster. The motor provides powerful support with 250 W output.
3.3 Gear Shifting
This e-bike is equipped with a 21-speed gear system, allowing you to adapt to various terrains and riding conditions. Use the shifters on the handlebar to change gears. Shift gears smoothly and avoid shifting under heavy load to prolong the lifespan of the drivetrain components.
3.4 Braking
The ZÜNDAPP Green 7.7 uses V-brakes for reliable stopping power. Always apply both front and rear brakes simultaneously for effective and safe braking. Practice braking in a safe area to familiarize yourself with the bike's stopping characteristics.
4. Maintenance
Regular maintenance is crucial for the longevity and safe operation of your e-bike. Perform these checks periodically:
- Tires: Check tire pressure before each ride. Inspect tires for wear, cuts, or embedded objects.
- Brakes: Ensure brake levers are firm and responsive. Check brake pads for wear and replace if necessary.
- Chain: Keep the chain clean and lubricated. This reduces wear and ensures smooth gear changes.
- Battery: Store the battery in a cool, dry place. Avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. Charge regularly, even if not in use, to maintain battery health. The 374 Wh battery provides a range between 30 and 115 km depending on usage.
- Bolts and Fasteners: Periodically check all bolts and fasteners for tightness, especially on the handlebars, seat post, and wheels.
- Cleaning: Clean your e-bike regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid high-pressure washing, especially near electrical components.
