Page 4: Important Safety Information
It is the rider’s responsibility to obey the regulations that apply to your Lectric eBike. The regulations covering the use of your Lectric eBike vary by state, and even municipality in certain locations. You must comply with the local regulations related to the minimum age of the rider, driver’s license, insurance, license plate, traffic, maximum speed regulations, and any other regulations.
Page 5 Intended Use The intended use of your Lectric eBike is to be ridden by one adult rider (age 18 and up) at an appropriate time and place for general transportation and/or recreational use. Any other use is prohibited and may result in SERIOUS INJURY or DEATH.
Page 6 To prevent serious injury or death: • Read all safety warnings and all instructions. • Always ride within your limits and the limits of your Lectric eBike. • Bicycles are only for use by persons 18 years of age and above.
Page 7 Helmets • Always wear a helmet. Wearing a helmet properly may reduce the risk of a severe head injury. When riding, always wear a helmet that meets or exceeds the standards of the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Check the manual that comes with your helmet. •...
Page 8 Ride at Your Own Risk and Use Common Sense • Always keep both hands on the handlebar grips and the brake levers so they are within reach while riding. • Do not ride distracted. Always remain alert to all riding conditions.
Page 9 Riding at Night • Riding at night comes with more risks than riding during the day due to decreased visibility; riders are encouraged to exercise increased caution in nighttime conditions. • Turn lights ON for safety. For increased visibility, ensure that the front headlight and rear taillight are turned ON and adjusted such that other people on the road can see them clearly.
Page 10 On-Product Warning Labels There are warning labels on your Lectric eBike for your protection. If a label is missing or is not legible, contact Lectric eBikes for a replacement. Stem label Class 2 label...

Page 14 Folding and Unfolding Continued Folding Stem To unfold: 1. Pull up the stem/ handlebars. 2. Make sure the stem is completely set in place. 3. Push the lever firmly so that it is locked in place. You should have to use enough force such that the clasp leaves an imprint in your palm.
Page 15 Frame To fold: 1. To unlock the bike frame and return it to the folded position, start by sliding the switch labeled “open” to the right. 2. Pull the latch while still holding the switch to the “open” position. 3. You may now fold the bike.
Page 16 Adjust Handlebar Height WARNING! • Always tighten fasteners to the correct torque to prevent serious injury or death. Bolts that are too tight can stretch and deform. Bolts that are too loose can move and fatigue. Either condition can lead to a sudden failure of the bolt and result in a crash.
Page 17 • ALWAYS insert the seat post past the minimum insertion point marked on the seat post. A seat post that is positioned too high can damage the bike and can cause you to lose control and crash. Correct seat adjustment is an important factor in getting the most performance and comfort from your bicycle.

PAS level you have set. PAS automatically switches off at the maximum speed set for your Lectric eBike (up to 28 mph). When the speed falls below the maximum set speed, PAS automatically becomes available again.
Page 26 Pedal Assist and Shifting Gears You should shift gears on your Lectric eBike in the same way you would shift with a normal bicycle. By selecting the proper gear, you can increase your speed and range while applying the same amount of force.
Page 27 Range Estimates The range the bicycle can go on a single battery charge can vary significantly between riders, terrain, wind conditions, user input, and additional cargo weight. The following table shows estimates of potential ranges riders may expect in different conditions. All tests were performed with: •...

Page 29 Battery Level Indicator Bar The “Energy Bar” near the top of the display is your battery indicator and shows the estimated charge level remaining in your battery packs. As the battery charge depletes, the remaining marks will display the approximate remaining charge in the battery pack. The battery display will flash when there is no charge remaining.
Page 30 Tampering can void the warranty and render your bicycle noncompliant with the applicable laws and regulations. Lectric eBikes is not responsible for any direct, incidental, or consequential damages, including, without limitation, damages for personal injury, property damage, or economic losses due to tampering.
Page 31 Used to compute speed and distance traveled. Speed Limit Range is 32-100. The value represents the maximum operating speed of your Lectric eBike in km/h. For example, a value of 32 indicates the maximum speed will not exceed 32 km/h. Drive speed is maintained at this set value.
Page 32 1: Walk Mode enabled Changing Top Speed Your Lectric eBike ships with a maximum speed set at 20 miles per hour (mph). This means it is a Class 2 electric bicycle in states that recognize three classes of eBikes. In most states that only recognize eBikes generally, the 20 mph top speed is legal for use on public roads.
Page 33 Class 3 Label If you increase your bicycle’s top speed, you must remove the Class 2 label that displays your Lectric eBike class, top pedal assisted speed, and motor wattage. This label is posted under the carry handle, near the seat tube on the bicycle. Peel back the Class 2 label to reveal the Class 3 label located underneath the Class 2 label.
Page 34 (-) button on the display control pad. Cruise Control Cruise control on your Lectric eBike works similarly to cruise control on a car. Cruise control will maintain the speed for which the bike was traveling when engaged. For example, if you are riding at 10 mph, and the minus button is held, the bike will continue traveling at 10 mph.
Page 35: Preparing To Ride
To activate: Hold the minus (-) button while twisting the throttle. To cruise at low speeds, only slightly twist the throttle and hold the minus (-) button. NOTE: When Cruise Control is active, “Cruise” will appear on the display. To deactivate: Pull either brake lever or start pedaling to disengage Cruise Control.
Page 36: Your First Ride
YOUR FIRST RIDE The acceleration of your Lectric eBike may be faster than anticipated and may feel unusual at first. Before your first ride, you should use the lowest level of pedal assist (PAS 1) and become familiar with the operation of your Lectric eBike by practicing starting, stopping, cornering, and navigating obstacles in a safe environment away from other bicycles, pedestrians, and/or vehicles.
Page 37: Battery Pack
This risk increases if an eBike battery that has already been opened is reused at a later point in time. Do not attempt to repair an eBike battery in the event of a fault. Have it replaced with an original Lectric eBike battery pack.
Page 38 • Always remove the battery pack before beginning work (e.g. inspection, repair, assembly, maintenance, work on the chain, etc.) on your Lectric eBike, transporting it via car or airplane, or storing it. Unintentional activation of the Lectric eBike poses a risk of injury.
Page 39 • Only charge the battery using original Lectric eBikes chargers. When using chargers that are not made by Lectric eBikes, the risk of fire cannot be excluded. • Use the battery only in conjunction with your Lectric eBike. This is the only way in which you can protect the battery against dangerous overload.
Page 40 • The charger may get hot (>165ºF) when charging. Use caution and avoid touching the body of the charger. • To reduce risk of injury, charge only batteries of your Lectric eBike. Other types of batteries may burst, causing personal injury and damage.
Page 41 • Do not expose the charger to rain or wet conditions. If water enters a charger, there is a risk of electric shock. • Only use the original Lectric eBikes battery charger supplied with your eBike or one approved for your eBike by the manufacturer and purchased from a trusted source.
Page 42 There is the option to mount a second battery (this is the auxiliary battery) behind the seat tube to increase range on your XPremium. The auxiliary battery will come with a unique set of keys.

Press the top part of the battery down while the keys are in the unlocked position. 3. Once the battery is flush with the frame, turn the keys clockwise to lock the battery to...
Page 44 If your battery impacts the ground and is damaged, discontinue use and contact Lectric eBikes immediately. How the two battery system works Your eBike is equipped with a battery isolator that will automatically switch between two batteries when two are attached.
Page 45 WARNING! • When riding using only the primary battery and not the auxiliary battery, ensure the waterproof cover is installed fully over the auxiliary battery mounting point. This will prevent corrosion and rust due to rain, moisture, etc. If the waterproof cover is not installed and water comes in contact with the terminals this could cause a short circuit and in turn a fire.
Page 46 Storage Conditions If possible, store the battery pack in a dry, well-ventilated place. Protect it from moisture and water. Always store your Lectric eBike battery pack in a location that: • Is in a room with a smoke alarm; •...
Page 47 For an optimum service life, store your Lectric eBike battery at temperatures between 50º F and 68º F. Never store it at temperatures below 14º F or above 140º F. Make sure the maximum storage temperature is not exceeded. Do not leave the battery in your car during the summer, for example, and store it away from direct sunlight.
