Inspection before Riding

Tyre Inspection

1, Whether tyre pressure is normal;

Decide whether the pneumatic pressure of the tyre is appropriate according to its indentation resulting from contacting the ground. Use a circumferentor to check in case of abnormal pneumatic pressure, and adjust it to normal.

Charging and Maintenance of Battery

The bicycle shall use maintenance-free lead-acid cell within the temperature range of -15℃ to 45℃ it is better to be 20℃-10℃. Too low temperature will reduce its effective capacity while too high temperature will affect its service life. Consequently, in winter or code areas, reduction in the endurance after one-time charging is normal, and its function will be recovered naturally when the temperature returns above 20℃. Solenoid is a main part protecting the satisfactory performance of the bicycle, please keep it properly. Do not use the electrical energy to the lowest allowable voltage when you ride every time. Please charge the battery when the undervoltage indicator light is on. It is better to develop a habit of charging after every ride, which is benefit to the battery.

Use and Maintenance of Charger

Battery can be charged directly on the bicycle or being demounted and charged in the appropriate indoor place. It is better to charge indoors in cold areas in winter.

Please connect the input plug to the alternating current power supply after proper connection of input plug of the charger to the charging jack of the battery, and then the power indicator will be on. Reverse operation is not allowed.

The red indicator light for charging of the charger will be on, which shows that the battery is charging with electricity; the battery is fully charged when the green light is on. The charging time is about 3~8h (length of charging time depends on the remaining electric quantity in the battery).

In special circumstances, the maximum continuous charging time shall not be more than 12 hours.

Matters Needing Attention in Charging

  1.  Put the battery in safety place out of reach of children when charging.

  2. Do not use without charger, otherwise the service life of battery will be affected.

  3. Do not use the charger of other brands to charge, and the battery of other types may not use this charger.

  4. Please do not dismantle the charger since it has a high voltage circuit. 

  5. Prevent liquid and metal filing from entering into the charger when using and storing. Be cautious of fall and impact to avoid damage.

  6. Please do not cover the charger with any items when charging.
