Warranty Summary
The limited warranty covers defects in workmanship and materials for a period detailed in the manual, excluding specific parts and conditions.
Basic Operation Summary:
- Starting: Mount the e-bike while applying brakes, and start pedaling. Use the LCD display to control assist levels.
- Throttle: Once at a minimum speed (1-3 mph), use the thumb throttle to increase speed. Hold to maintain speed, release to decrease.
- Shifting Gears: Use the right-hand shift lever to change gears while pedaling forward. Listen for a 'click' to confirm gear change. Adjust rear derailleur if needed for smooth shifting.
- Stopping: Apply front and rear brake levers. Practice stopping in a safe space to get accustomed to the e-bike's weight and braking.
