Power Assisted Cycling - ezee Sprint 2008 User Manual

Make sure that the brake's brake shoes are contacting the rim's braking surface. Also check the
shoes are not rubbing the tyre's side wall whilst applying the brake. Do not ride the bike until the
brakes are properly adjusted.
3.6 Safe and Responsible Riding
Like any sport, bicycling involves risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride a bicycle, you
assume the responsibility for that risk, not the people who sold you the bicycle, not the people who
made it, nor the people who distribute it. Nor the people who manages the roads you ride on, but
YOU. So you need to know – and to practice – the rules of safe and responsible riding.
Because eZeebikes are designed as comfort city bikes, they are made for commuting purposes. We
strongly do not recommend you treat this bicycle for other purposes such as going on mountain trails,
speed cycling, downhill and stunt biking. There are other bicycles designed for such purpose, and the
purpose of an eZeebike is for quiet, easy and efficient commuting with fun.
3.6.1 The Basics
1. Always do mechanical and electronics inspections of the bicycle before you get on.
2. Always wear a cycling helmet that meets the latest Snell, ANSI or other approved
standards.
3. Be careful to keep body parts away from the sharp teeth of the chainwheel, the moving chain;
the turning pedal and cranks; and the spinning wheels of the bicycle.
4. Always wear shoes that will stay on your feet and will grip the pedals. Never ride barefooted or
wearing sandals.
5. Be thoroughly familiar with controls of your bicycle.
6. Wear bright, visible clothing that is not so loose that it will catch unto the moving parts of the
bicycle or be snagged by objects at the side of the road.
7. Think about your speed and keep your speed at a consistent level that meets with road
conditions.
8. Be reminded that during wet weather conditions, brake distance will vary quite differently from
dry weather conditions. We advise you pay extra attention during these conditions and brake
earlier than you usually do during dry weather conditions.
9. Always follow road safety regulations in the country you are riding in, especially those
applicable to bicycles. Avoid as much as possible riding a bicycle in wet weather conditions
and in poor visibility conditions such as night cycling or cycling in a fog.
10. The electronic controls are installed with overload protections. When the power
an overload situation, you have to turn the power off with the keys and start again. The
second level overload protection is the 30 amps fuse installed at the battery box. If restarting
fails, check the fuse. Replace fuse if it has blown, or otherwise check the number of blinks on
the red LED with the self diagnostic system of the controller.
11. Low voltage protection. To prevent the battery from deep discharge that will irreversibly
damage the battery, the power will cut off when it reaches a certain low voltage protection.
When you see that the battery level indicator shows the yellow/orange warning light it is
necessary to charge your battery again. When the minimum battery level is reached the
electric motor will not function smoothly
