Page 6: Riding Instructions
Page 6 The Rome Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Riding Instructions This guide assumes that you already know how to ride a standard bicycle. Before you try to ride an electric bicycle, you should be very familiar with controlling and balancing a normal bicycle. - Page 7 Page 7 The Rome Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Inspecting your E-Bike Always inspect your e-bike before you ride it, to make sure its safety features are operating properly. Many accidents can be avoided with routine inspections. Once you are comfortable with your e-bike, you will be able to detect small changes in the way it feels.
- Page 8 Page 8 The Rome Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Stopping Your e-bike has two sets of brakes, at the front and at the rear. The levers attached to the handlebars, on the left and right, activate the brakes. Pull the levers toward you to activate the brakes.
- Page 9 Page 9 The Rome Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Pedaling This e-bike is designed to be a motor-assisted bicycle. You can use the motor by itself, but ideally, you can work with the motor by pedaling. This increases the distance you can travel on your e-bike, because it assists the motor and reduces the amount of electricity you draw from the battery.

Page 12: The Battery
Page 12 The Rome Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin The Battery This section details what you need to know about the battery that powers your e-bike. Always remember to treat your e-bike’s electrical systems with respect. Battery Power The dashboard has a battery charge indicator. - Page 13 If your charger’s LED status light does not change from red to green over an extended period of time, for perhaps more than 14 hours, and the battery is very hot, the battery or charger may need replacing. Stop charging and bring both to your Daymak dealer immediately. Do not charge the battery.
- Page 14 Page 14 The Rome Electric Bicycle User’s Guide TPS Training Bulletin Battery Care Follow these suggestions to maintain your battery’s optimal performance. If you do not follow these suggestions, your battery may lose its ability to maintain a charge and might have to be replaced sooner than would otherwise be necessary.
- Page 15 Contact your local Daymak dealer to purchase a new battery. When replacing your battery, dispose of it at a proper municipal battery recycling facility. If none is available, please contact your local Daymak dealer.

Page 16: Technical Data
This section provides you with the technical specifications for your e-bike. The Motor and Wheel Assembly The Rome e-bike has a 500 Watt magnetic DC brushless motor on the rear wheel hub. This type of motor has excellent low-end torque and high efficiency when working within its range. - Page 17 They provide some of the best control available for scooters and e-bikes of the Rome’s size. They do weigh significantly more than other brake types, though, but this is compensated for on the Rome by its lighter frame.

Page 19: Maintenance And Troubleshooting
Please contact your Daymak dealer for specific instructions on how to remove your wheel and tires safely, and how to replace the tubes. It may be easier – and safer - to have the tubes replaced by your Daymak dealer. - Page 20 TPS Training Bulletin The Brakes The drum brakes and hydraulic brakes on your Rome e-bike allow you to stop and are a critical safety feature. Make sure you test them regularly. Take the e-bike to your Daymak dealer if the brakes appear to be losing their stopping power or feel looser than they were previously.
- Page 21 It is a good idea to always carry a spare 30 A fuse, to replace the fuse in case it blows. The Motor Do not service the motor yourself. Bring the e-bike to your Daymak dealer for service. The motor in your e-bike is a highly complex and fine-tuned mechanism. Repairing it requires significant expertise.
- Page 22 If your e-bike is not performing properly, disconnect the circuit breaker and bring the e-bike to your local Daymak dealer. Do not store the e-bike without disconnecting the circuit breaker. Liability Daymak will not be held responsible for damage or injuries resulting from errors resulting from improperly serviced parts.
