Cycling with power assistance
What is pedal assistance?
The bike is equipped with electric pedal assistance.
The motor enhances your eorts, thus increasing your
performance while you deliver less power.
The funconing of the pedal assistance depends
on whether the pedals are being rotated and the
cycling speed. On models with a midmotor the pedal
assistance is also dependent on the pedalling force and
the cadence speed (pedal revoluons speed).
When accelerang from stand, the acceleraon is high
so you have an easy start.
Seng pedal assistance on and o
Once the display is turned on the power level is set in
level 0. The ‘PLUS’ and ‘MINUS’ buons can be used to
increase or decrease the assistance level. The motor
gives assistance in the lowest to the highest power
level. You can turn o the pedal assistance by pressing
the ‘MINUS’ buon to power level 0.
Please note that the baery runs out of power faster
when using a high power level than with a low power
level.
The lowest power levels up to around level 5 are meant
for use on a at road, higher levels are more powerful
and meant for hills, slopes, and heavy circumstances. If
you ride slowly use a low powerlevel, if you ride faster
you can increase the power level, but use the highest
power levels only at the moment that you need them,
to prevent dangerous situaons and to ride more
eciently and economically.
