Charging the Battery The battery can be charged on or off the Trike. To remove the battery, unplug the battery from the Trike, (Blue Plug), then unlock with the one of the two keys provided, hold down the plastic clamping tab and slide out the battery from the rear of the carrier. Insertion is the reverse of the above procedure. WARNING Ensure that charging socket cover is CLOSED before removing or inserting battery. Failure to do so will result in breakage of the cover.
Plug the charger into the mains socket and switch on at the wall outlet. The lights on the charger will illuminate after a few seconds. Power Charger Power Charger The RED light indicates that mains power is applied. The other light will show ORANGE whilst charging is taking place. This may take up to six hours for a flat battery. When the battery is charged the ORANGE light will change to GREEN. Once charged, switch off at the wall outlet and unplug.
Usage Your BATRIBIKE Electric Trike can be used as a normal pedal cycle by simply not switching on the battery. ON/OFF MODE To use under electric power, put the blue plug into the socket in the battery located near the seat under the rear basket. Rotate the plug clockwise until it clips in. Press and hold the ON/OFF MODE button on the handlebar display. The display will initiate and then the steady lights will indicate the remaining power in the battery.
Pedal Assist—Rotation Sensor The Rotation Sensor works when the pedals are turning, the controller senses you are pedalling and the motor starts to assist the rider. To use this mode ensure the power is turned on via the ON/OFF button and then simply rotate the pedals. Four Power Levels To enable the rider to have complete control over speed and assistance the Trike 16 and Trike 20 have four levels of assistance. When initially switched on the controller automatically selects power level 3.
Gears—3 Speed Nexus Hub (where fitted) Gear number 1 is low and makes it easier to pedal (for hills and rough terrain). Gear number 3 is high and helps you to go faster (for use on level ground). To change gear use the selector mounted on the right handlebar. There are markings around the outside light grey portion to indicate the gear number and the inner circle (Black) has a dot which shows which gear is selected.
Tilting Mechanism The Batribike Trikes are fitted with a tilting mechanism which aids the rider to corner more easily. Using the tilting facility also allows for greater stability when cornering, reducing the risk of lifting a rear wheel. The lever to release the tilt lock is located on the handlebars Trike 16 – Right hand side Trike 20 – Left hand side To release the tilt lock push the lever forwards. To lock the tilting mechanism push the lever in the opposite direction.
The rear light requires 2 AA batteries. You will require a small Philips screwdriver to take off the red lens for battery replacement. It is switched on by the small switch on the underside of the unit. Tyre Pressures The tyres should be pumped up to within the range stated on the sidewall. This should be regularly checked as running with the correct pressures will ensure maximum range from the battery.
