Once you turn the unit on, all you have to do is start pedaling the system does the rest. Through the controller unit, you can then choose the level of assist you require based on the conditions. 1. On-Off Buttons · Gently press the ON button to activate the unit. The Battery level lights will flash for several seconds before becoming fixed at the current battery charge level. The unit will start in the Normal mode, so both the left and middle Boost level indicator lamps should also come on. NOTE: Always keep your feet off the pedals when setting the control-switch to "ON". The Chainwheel has a built-in sensor to detect the force with which the pedal is pressed. It is important that the no load is on the pedals when you first turn the unit on for correct operation. This will turn the unit off and all lamps on the controller should go out. 2. Boost mode Indicator The Boost mode or `power level' is shown by three blue lamps. You can choose between three Boost settings: · eCO mode: (Indicated by single left hand lamp being lit) · · · The Battery is full or above twothirds The remaining battery charge has decreased The batter charge is becoming low and should be recharged soon The battery is nearly completely discharged. Please charge the battery as soon as possible. Two red lamps lit · One red lamp lit One red lamp flashing fast One red lamp flashing slowly The most economical of the three Boost Modes. The Eco mode will provide assistance up to 15kmh, but at lower power level than the Normal or Boost modes. Good for using on the flat or when you want to conserve battery charge. 15 · normal mode: (Indicated by both the lefthand and middle lamps being lit) · Boost mode: (Indicated by all three lamps being lit) 4. Boost mode Button The Boost level button is used to switch between the three available Boost settings. Each time you press the button it will change in the following order: Normal > Boost > Eco > Normal 5 & 6. Front light Function The Boost uses an integrated LED front headlamp that is operated at the controller. When the Front light is switched on, the headlamp indicator lamp (6) will glow yellow. This light is operated via a separate on/off switch and is not connected to the battery. For your safety please remember to turn on and off the rear light. The Normal mode will also provide assistance up to 15kmh, but at a slightly higher assist ration than the ECO mode. As with the Eco Mode, the level of assistance gradual decreases as you approach 15 kmh Good for flat or rolling hills, or when you find you need a bit more power. The Boost mode gives you maximum power and speed.
