6. Operating Instructions

This section details how to operate your AZHAR Electric Mountain Bike safely and effectively.

6.2 Riding Modes

Your bike offers three distinct riding modes:

2. Locate the charging port on the battery (or frame if charging while installed).
3. Connect the charger to the battery, then plug the charger into a standard electrical outlet.
