How to set the assistance level
SETTING THE ASSISTANCE LEVEL
To use your ebike, first turn it on by holding down the power button which is located on the handlebar display.
Once activated, you can use the plus (+) and minus (-) buttons on the keypad to alter the level of assistance that the bike gives you while riding.
The higher the number the more assistance the bike will give you while riding. There are 5 assistance levels for you to chose from. We strongly recommend starting off on level 1, 2 or 3 on your first ride, before using levels 4 and 5.
You can also ride without the electrical system on (assistance level 0), by pressing the minus (-) button when on level 1.
