Variable Power Assist (VPA)
have received or chosen a potentiometer dial. This set-up is only
compatible with EPAC mode eZeebikes.
The dial settings from 0 - 8 correspond accordingly to the level of
continous power assistance acheived by the motor during
pedalling. The level of assistance remains the same throughout
regardless of road conditions until you re-set the dial to another
position. This is especially useful for long treks or when you do not
wish to fuss about with a more sensitive throttle.
You can always choose to ride your bicycle as an ordinary bicycle.
Battery level gauge
bicycle, the battery level gauge shows 'green'. Powerful
acceleration or uphill riding causes the battery voltage to drop and
may bring the level gauge to 'amber' or even 'red' (in the cases of
very steep hills).
As you continue to cycle and the battery power drops, the level
gauge will correspond to the state of charge remaining. When it
remains in 'amber' and dips into 'red', you have approximately a
1/3 of the charge left. Best to recharge the battery soon.
To prevent the battery from deep discharge, the controller has a
low voltage protection cut-off set at 30.0 V. You may reboot the
bicycle if it cuts off however,
'Pulsing', or straining any capacity left in the battery will
