This article helps you to determine why you may not be getting pedal assistance on the XE-1.
In order to determine why your XE-1 may not be providing electrical assistance to you, work through the
following scenarios:

1. Perform a function check.

To be sure that your bike is not providing any pedal assist, perform a function check by doing the following
steps:
1.1 Place the Hydrofoiler XE-1 onto land with the battery connected and in place.
1.2 With the battery off, turn the pedals a full two rotations and feel the resistance as they turn.
1.3 Next, turn the battery on. Listen out for a loud beep and a solid ring of light around the button.
If your
battery does not turn on, it is likely flat and needs to be
charged.
1.4 With the battery on, check the electrical assist is working by turning the pedals again. After your pedals
turn 180 degrees the motor should engage, making the cranks easier to rotate, whilst the propeller spins
faster.
