Vehicle "power off" (power on but no power)
- Brake power off: when pinching the brake handle, there will be no power output when turning the turnbuckle;
- Motor overheating protection.
- Controller overheating protection.
- Battery overheating, power supply reaches undervoltage protection point.
- Turn off the one key off switch.
Vehicle power reduction
- The controller overheats (when the operating temperature exceeds 85°C, it starts to enter the deceleration process; each increase of 1°C will decelerate it by 10%. If it continues to overheat to 20% of the rated value, the power output will be cut off and it can be used again after the controller cools down).
- Motor overheating (when the working temperature exceeds 110℃, it starts to enter the derating process, every 1℃ increase will increase the derating value by 10%. If the overheating continues, the derating to 20% of the rated power output will be cut off and wait for the motor to cool down, then it will be ready for use).
- Battery voltage is processed by linear derating starting from 71V, every 1V lower, the amount of reduction will be 20%, the minimum drop to 15% of the rated value. 63V voltage battery enters undervoltage protection.
- When the power supply is zero, stop the power output. (The battery may enter over-discharge protection if it is not recharged in time for continued use). Note: After over-discharge protection, the battery needs to be charged and activated with a charger, see Fault Phenomena for activation method.
Environment during use
- When the temperature is below 0℃, it is not recommended to use SPORT mode and RACE mode.
- When the temperature is higher than 50℃, it is not recommended to drive with high power for a long time.
About Wading
Electric motocross bikes will occasionally wade in water (no more than 24 cm/9 inches deep) but should not be submerged for too long, especially if the motor is at a high temperature as the cooling of the water and the contraction of the internal air can cause water to be absorbed by the oil seals and the cable locations, resulting in internal damage. Below are the waterproof ratings for each component.
Battery: IP55 Motor/Controller: IP66
Whole vehicle connector: IP55
