2. Degree of support 1, 2 and 3
The desired support can be set by using one of the support levels 1, 2 or 3.
1.
Light support, maximum range.
2.
Average support, average range.
3.
Maximum support, low range.
You can change the level while cycling.
3. Start assist
The Silent electric motor has a start support. This allows the driver to pull-away
without pedalling up to a speed of 6 km/h over five seconds. To accelerate, press the
start assist button and keep it pressed down. The function will only activate again,
when the support button has been pressed down again.
If you peddle normally, the function works for up to five seconds, each time the button
is pressed, up to maximum speed of the bicycle (20-25 km/h).
The start assist is used for:
Extra support when starting.
Extra support for cycling uphill.
Tip: when cycling a steep climb, you can use support in level 3 and push the
start assist repeatedly for five seconds to achieve maximum support.
4. Battery indication lights
The level of charge in the battery is given by five LED lights: four of these are green,
the one on the left can show either green or red, if charge is low.
The battery is almost empty if only the last red LED light is on. The battery needs to
be recharged or replaced by a (new) fully charged battery.
When the last red LED light flashes, the battery is empty and the motor will no longer
support while cycling. The integrated lighting continues to work.
Never leave the bicycle with an empty battery!
Note: charge the battery within one day.
When the motor is not used for several days, the battery switches into the
sleeping mode. This is to protect the batteries. To activate it, you must
connect the battery to the charger for a few seconds or cycle the bike
forwards (around 10 km/h) and push the on/off button to activate the system.
If you push the bicycle, turn off the motor.
