Operating Instructions

The Hiboy P6 offers versatile riding experiences with its multiple modes and intuitive controls.

Riding Modes:

• Pure Electric Mode: Engage the throttle for motor-powered propulsion without pedaling.
• Pedal-Assist Mode (PAS): The motor provides assistance as you pedal, offering varying levels of support. This mode extends battery range significantly (49.7-62.1 miles).
• Classic Bike Mode: Ride the bike like a traditional bicycle, using only pedal power.

Intelligent LCD Display:

The LCD display provides real-time information about your ride. Use the control buttons near the display to cycle through different metrics such as current speed, riding time, total mileage, and remaining battery power.

Shimano 7-Speed System:

Utilize the Shimano 7-speed gear shifter to adapt to various terrains and riding conditions, from uphill climbs to flat cruising. Shift gears smoothly by easing pressure on the pedals during the shift.

Braking System:

The dual disc brakes provide reliable stopping power. Apply both front and rear brakes simultaneously for optimal control and shorter stopping distances. Avoid sudden, hard braking, especially with the front brake, to prevent loss of control.

Headlight and Horn:

The integrated LED headlight and bike horn are essential safety features. Activate the headlight in low-light conditions and use the horn to alert others to your presence.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your Hiboy P6 Electric Bike.

• Battery Care:
  • Charge the battery regularly, even if not in frequent use, to maintain its health.
  • Store the battery in a dry, cool indoor environment when not in use. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight, extreme heat, or cold, as this can accelerate aging and compromise lifespan.
  • Do not fully discharge the battery frequently.
• Tire Pressure: Check tire pressure before each ride and inflate to the recommended PSI. Proper inflation improves ride quality and prevents punctures.
• Brake Inspection: Regularly inspect brake pads for wear and ensure brake levers provide firm and responsive stopping power. Adjust or replace components as needed.
• Chain Lubrication: Keep the chain clean and lubricated to ensure smooth gear changes and prevent rust.
• General Cleaning: Clean the bike regularly with a damp cloth. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on electrical components.
• Fastener Check: Periodically check all bolts and fasteners for tightness.
