4. Setup and Installation
Follow these steps carefully to install the Dyu C6 Half Grip Throttle on your DYU C6 26 Inch City Electric Bike. Ensure the bike's power is off and the battery is disconnected before proceeding.
- Prepare the Handlebar: If replacing an existing throttle, carefully remove the old unit. Clean the handlebar area where the new throttle will be mounted.
- Position the Throttle: Slide the Dyu C6 Half Grip Throttle onto the right side of your handlebar. Ensure it is positioned comfortably for your hand and that the power button and digital indicators are easily accessible.
- Secure the Throttle: The throttle is designed for easy installation with only one fixing screw. Tighten this screw securely to prevent the throttle from rotating during use. Do not overtighten.
- Connect the Wiring: Locate the corresponding 6-pin female connector on your DYU C6 electric bike's wiring harness. Carefully align the 6-pin male white plug from the throttle with the female connector and push them firmly together until they click into place. The wires are color-coded (black, blue, red, white, yellow, brown) for proper connection.
- Route the Cable: Neatly route the 150cm (59 inch) cable along the bike frame, securing it with zip ties or cable clips as needed, ensuring it does not interfere with steering or other moving parts.
- Final Check: Double-check all connections and ensure the throttle is firmly mounted and the cable is routed safely.

5. Operating Instructions
Once installed, operating the Dyu C6 Half Grip Throttle is straightforward.
