4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Battery Charging
The 48V 10Ah removable lithium battery provides power for your ebike. To charge the battery:
- Ensure the bike is turned off.
- Locate the charging port on the battery. The battery can be charged while installed on the bike or removed.
- Connect the charger to the battery's charging port, then plug the charger into a standard electrical outlet.
- The charging indicator on the charger will show the charging status (typically red for charging, green for fully charged).
- Charging typically takes 4-5 hours for a full charge. Do not overcharge.
- Once fully charged, disconnect the charger from the outlet first, then from the battery.
4.2 Powering On/Off and Display
To power on the bike, press and hold the power button on the LCD display. The display will illuminate, showing real-time cycling data such as speed, mileage, and current mode. To power off, press and hold the power button again.
4.3 Riding Modes
The AZHAR G26 offers three riding modes:
- Pure Electric Mode: Engage the throttle for motor-only propulsion. No pedaling required.
- Pedal Assist Mode (PAS): The motor provides assistance as you pedal. There are 5 levels of pedal assist, adjustable via the display controls. Higher levels provide more motor power.
- Pedal Mode: Ride the bike like a traditional bicycle with no motor assistance.
4.4 Gear Shifting
The bike is equipped with a 7-speed gear system. Use the twist grip shifter on the handlebar to change gears. Shift to lower gears for climbing hills and higher gears for flat terrain or downhill riding to maintain an efficient pedaling cadence.
4.5 Braking System
The AZHAR G26 features dual disc brakes for reliable stopping power. Apply both brake levers simultaneously for optimal and controlled braking. Avoid sudden, hard braking, especially at high speeds, to prevent skidding.
4.6 Headlight Operation
The integrated 400-lumen headlight can be turned on or off via the controls on the handlebar, typically integrated with the display unit. Use the headlight for improved visibility during low-light conditions or at night.
5. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of your electric bicycle.
5.1 General Cleaning
Clean the bike regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using high-pressure washers directly on electrical components, bearings, or the motor.
5.2 Tire Care
- Check tire pressure before each ride. Maintain pressure within the recommended range printed on the tire sidewall.
- Inspect tires for wear, cuts, or embedded objects.
5.3 Brake System
- Regularly check brake pads for wear and replace them when necessary.
- Ensure brake levers operate smoothly and provide adequate stopping power. Adjust brake cable tension if needed.
5.4 Chain and Drivetrain
- Keep the chain clean and lubricated to ensure smooth gear changes and prevent premature wear.
- Inspect gears and derailleur for proper alignment and function.
5.5 Battery Care
- Store the battery in a cool, dry place when not in use.
