5.2. LCD Digital Display

- Distance: Trip distance or total odometer.
- Error Codes: Displays diagnostic codes if an issue occurs.
5.3. Riding Modes
Your e-bike offers multiple riding modes:
- Pedal Assist Mode (PAS): The motor provides assistance as you pedal. Adjust the assist level (1-5) using the controls on the handlebar. Higher levels provide more assistance.
- Electric Mode (Throttle): Engage the throttle (if equipped) to propel the bike without pedaling. This mode is typically used for short bursts of speed or to get started from a stop.
- Normal Bicycle Mode: Turn off the electric assistance and ride the bike like a traditional bicycle, using only pedal power.
5.4. Gear Shifting
The 7-speed Shimano gear system allows you to adjust your pedaling effort to different terrains. Use the trigger shifter on the handlebar to change gears. Shift to lower gears for climbing hills and higher gears for flat terrain or downhill riding.
5.5. Brakes
The bike is equipped with disc brakes for reliable stopping power. Always apply both front and rear brakes simultaneously for controlled stopping. Practice braking in a safe area before riding in traffic.

6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your ANCHEER Electric Bike.
- Cleaning: Clean the bike regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid high-pressure washing directly on electrical components.
- Lubrication: Lubricate the chain and other moving parts periodically with bicycle-specific lubricant.
- Tire Pressure: Check tire pressure before each ride. Maintain pressure within the range indicated on the tire sidewall.
- Brakes: Inspect brake pads for wear and replace them when necessary. Ensure brake levers are firm and responsive. Adjust brake cables as needed.
- Battery Care: Store the battery in a cool, dry place. If storing for extended periods, charge it to 50-70% every 1-2 months. Do not fully discharge the battery before recharging.
- Fasteners: Periodically check and tighten all bolts, nuts, and screws on the bike.
- Professional Service: For complex repairs or adjustments, consult a qualified bicycle mechanic.
7. Troubleshooting
