5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Powering On/Off
To power on the electric system, press and hold the power button on the display unit. To power off, repeat the action. Ensure the battery is securely locked in place before operation.
5.2 Pedal Assist System (PAS)
The bike features a Pedal Assist System (PAS) with multiple levels. Use the '+' and '-' buttons on the display to select your desired assist level. Higher levels provide more motor assistance. The motor engages when you pedal.
5.3 Throttle Operation
The throttle provides power on demand without pedaling. To activate the throttle, ensure the pedal assist is set to 'off' (level 0 or indicated as such on your display). Gently twist the throttle grip to engage the motor. Always use the throttle responsibly and be prepared to brake.
5.4 Gear Shifting
Your bike is equipped with a Shimano 7-speed gear system. Use the shifter on the handlebars to change gears. Shift to lower gears for climbing hills and higher gears for flat terrain or downhill riding. Shift smoothly to avoid strain on the drivetrain.

5.5 Braking
The bike features disc brakes for reliable stopping power. Apply both front and rear brakes simultaneously for effective and controlled stopping. Avoid sudden, hard braking, especially with the front brake, to prevent loss of control.
6. Battery Information
The ANCHEER electric bike is powered by a 15Ah 540Wh removable lithium battery, offering a range of approximately 30-60 km (up to 50 miles) depending on terrain, assist level, and rider weight.
6.1 Charging Methods
The battery can be charged in two ways:
- On-Bike Charging: Connect the charger directly to the charging port on the battery while it is installed on the bike.
- Off-Bike Charging: Remove the battery from the bike and connect it to the charger. This allows for convenient charging indoors.

7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your electric bike.
- Cleaning: Wipe down the frame and components with a damp cloth. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on electrical components.

- Brakes: Regularly inspect brake pads for wear and ensure brake levers provide firm and responsive stopping power. Adjust or replace as needed.
- Chain: Keep the chain clean and lubricated to ensure smooth gear changes and prevent wear.
- Battery Care: Store the battery in a cool, dry place. If storing for extended periods, charge it to 50-70% every few months.
- Fasteners: Periodically check all bolts and nuts for tightness, especially on critical components like handlebars, wheels, and seat post.
