General Operation
Switching the E-bike System On/Off
Press the power button briefly to switch the E-bike system ON. To switch OFF, press and hold the power button for 2 seconds. The system will then cease using battery power. The leakage current when switched off is less than 1μA. The system also switches off automatically after 10 minutes of inactivity.
Display Interface
After powering on, the display shows Speed and Trip Distance by default. Press the [info] button to cycle through the following elements: Trip (Km) → ODO (Km) → Max. Speed (Km/h) → Avg. Speed (Km/h) → Time (Min.).
Display Indication Cycle: The interface cycles through different data screens, showing current speed, trip distance, odometer, maximum speed, average speed, and time.
Switching Push-assistance Mode On/Off
To activate the push-assistance function, hold the [-] button. After 2 seconds, the E-bike's drive is activated at a uniform speed of 6 Km/h. The push-assistance function is automatically switched off when the [-] button is released, and the E-bike system stops power output immediately.
Push-assistance Mode: This function is intended for use only when pushing the E-bike. Caution: Be aware of the risk of injury if the E-bike's wheels do not have ground contact while using this function.
Switching the Lighting On/Off
To switch on the headlight, hold the [headlight] button. The backlight brightness is automatically reduced. Hold the [headlight] button again to switch the lighting off.
Assist Level Selection
Briefly press the [+] or [-] button to switch between assistance levels, thereby changing the motor output power. The default assistance level ranges from 0 to 5. Level 0 provides zero output power, Level 1 is the minimum power, and Level 5 is the maximum power. If you press [+] at Level 5, the display will continue to show '5' and blink to indicate maximum power. If you press [-] at Level 0, the display will continue to show '0' and blink to indicate minimum power. The default assist level is 1.
Display Indicators
Assist Level Interface
The display shows the current assist level, typically indicated by a number (e.g., '1') and the current speed.
Battery SOC Indicator
By default, the battery SOC is displayed as a percentage. The battery bar is green when the battery voltage is high. When the percentage is less than 20%, a red square appears, indicating the battery needs recharging.
Battery SOC Representations: The display shows battery levels such as 100%, 40%, 80%, 20%, 60%, and 0% using graphical bars.
Motor Power Indicator
The motor power can be read via the interface, typically shown as a percentage or bar graph.
USB Connection Indication
When the display is connected to a USB external device, the interface will show a USB connection indicator.
Error Code Indication
The E-bike system components are continuously monitored. When an error is detected, a corresponding error code is indicated in the text area. For example, 'Error Code: 30 Communication fault'.
Note: Have the display repaired when an error code appears, as you may not be able to ride the bike normally. Always refer to an authorized dealer.
Settings
Accessing Settings
