pedals the motor will start working assisting you ride the bike by adding power
to the front wheel. This is the standard or pedelec mode, to continue using the
pedelec mode you must keep turning the pedals, if you stop pedaling the motor
will stop and the bike will slow to a halt. If you start pedaling again after one
turn the motor will start again.

You will find the ASSIST level shows on the LCD display. You can adjust the
assistance strength by pressing the up or down arrow. There are 6 levels of
40%/50%/60%/70%/90%/100%）
assistance（
12.3
70%, 90% and 100% mode are generally used when you need a greater amount
of assistance from the motor. 60% mode is used when you do not need the
instant power of 90% or 100%. 40% and 50% are used in high traffic situations
or poor conditions such as ice and snow when 70%, 90% and 100% power
immediately could be dangerous.

Power consumption. When you increase the assistance, you will find the battery

Throttle
13.1
The throttle can be used independently to the pedelec mode but the operation
will vary depending on the country where the bike is supplied. Bikes are set up
to be legal in the region in which they are supplied and will either provide full
power (100%) or power up to 4 mph (6kph) (walkalong mode) independently of
the pedelec.
13.2
The independent use of the throttle, when available, will enable you to use the
throttle without pedaling. However to achieve optimum performance and life
from the motor it is recommended that large throttle openings from rest be
avoided and that where possible pedal assistance should be used when starting
the bike from rest.
13.3
The use of the throttle in pedelec mode is legal in most countries. Throttle in
pedelec mode enables you to turn up the power to the motor as long as you are
pedaling the bike, if you stop pedaling the motor will stop too. If you have the
pedelec mode set too Low, you can increase the assistance from the motor from
40% to 100% of available power simply but turning the throttle towards you.
IMPORTANT Make sure your throttle grip and the grip on the left hand side of your
handle bars are always intact, in good condition and on the bike. Uncovered handlebar
tubes can be very dangerous in case of a collision. Ensure the spacer fitted between
the throttle and the grip is properly installed.
Warning: The electric motor on your bike is very powerful and if you set of in high
assist mode you may cause the front wheel to spin. This is the same on any
motorized vehicle. We therefore highly recommend that you always start off
with the bike set to the lowest level of assistance and only use a small amount
of throttle until you are moving forwards at walking pace.
