SAFETY & WARNINGS
Electric Assisted Bike Regulations
The EN 15194 EU standard or EPAC (Electric Power Assisted Cycle) conforms to the
following characteristics for electric power assisted bikes:
• Motor assistance only starts when the cyclist pedals.
• The assistance cuts out as soon as the cyclist stops pedalling.
• The assistance cuts out as soon as the speed exceeds 25km/h.
Adherence to this standard enables the use of the electric bikes in the same conditions as
any other bicycle, particularly on bicycle paths and bicycle-specific lanes.
Recommendation before First Ride
• Before first use, double-check the function of all the parts of your electric bike. If you
have any doubts or if you detect a problem, contact Kogan.com for further support
assistance.
• If you lend your bicycle to a third party, give them this user guide with the bicycle and
ensure that they read it before the first ride.
• Respect local, state and national road traffic regulations.
• For your safety, it is highly recommended that you wear a certified helmet. Ensure you
are always following local helmet laws while operating the bicycle.
• When used during heavy rain, snow, in slippery conditions or in the case of low visibility,
be careful and adjust your speed.
• At night, ensure the bicycle headlights are activated while operating.
• Trying to repair anything that implies removing technical or electrical components is
strongly advised against. If maintenance or repair is necessary, contact Kogan.com for
support assistance.
• The manufacturer declines any responsibility due to overloading or items that are not
correctly attached to the baggage rack.
• Using high pressured water jets to clean the bike is strongly advised against.
• Check the battery level before each use. Ensure the battery is fully charged prior to first
use.
• In order to extend battery performance and lifespan, do not commence operation when
the battery is only half-charged.
