1. Inspecting your Electric Bike Always inspect your e bike before you ride it to make sure its safety features are oper ating properly Many accidents can be avoided with routine inspections Once you are comfortable with your e bike you will be able to detect small changes in the way it feels If anything changes between uses make sure to have it properly examined Also be sure to listen for changes in the sounds your e bike makes over time Any mechanical or power issues may have effects on the sounds the bicycle makes Holding the Handlebars As with a normal bicycle or gas scooter place your fingers over the brake levers using the palms of your hand and your thumbs to wrap around and under the handlegrips Doing this allows you to activate the brakes easily by squeezing your hand in case you have to stop quickly This is the safe way to control your electric bicycle Turning your E bike On and Off To turn on your e bike insert the key into the ignition located just below the dash board and turn the key to the right When your e bike is activated the power indicator will light and the battery charge indicator will jump showing you how much power your e bike has To turn off the e bike simply turn the key to the left and remove the key Warning When you activate the e bike the electrical system becomes live Do not try to affect changes to the E Bike such as removing the battery or repairing electrical component2. e Ebikes are Fast E bikes are capable of traveling at higher speeds than many bicy cle riders are accustomed to Use caution at all times especially when travelling in mixed traffic Always take into account driving and traveling conditions e Obey the Law Be sure to follow all provincial and city traffic laws This includes obeying stop signs checking carefully when turning and riding defensively An e bike is a motorized vehicle even though it is classed as a bicycle You must fol low the law e Stay Sober Never ride your bicycle while intoxicated An e bike is capable of trav eling faster than a normal bicycle and you should always be in control of it e Share the Road Be careful in mixed traffic When on bicycle paths traveling near pedestrians or on recreational trails try to be polite and courteous to those using the paths with you E bikes are new in most cities so other users of the roads and recreational paths may not know how to deal with e bike riders Bear in mind that in a sense e bike riders are ambassadors for this new method of transportation Items to Carry with the Electric Bike It isa good idea to carry the following items with you at all times when you ride your e bike e The charger to charge the bike in case the battery power runs out 30 Amp Fuse spares for the batteries in case the fuses blow e A lock to secure your e bike when you park it e A helmet as required by safety laws
3. Charging your E Bike Charging your e bike is a simple process You require the following e The charger that came with your e bike e A 110V household electrical outlet Charger Warning Only use the chargers that were supplied with your e bike Using chargers that do not have specifications identical to those which came with the e bike could irreparably dam age your e bike s battery and electrical systems and may cause injury To charge your e bike follow these steps 1 Turn off the e bike and remove the key from the ignition 2 Plug the female end of the charger cable into the charging slot on the e bike This is found on the battery case located in the rear close to the back tire 3 Plug the male end of the charger power cable into your wall socket This should be a110v household electricity supply 4 Allow the e bike s battery to charge for the appropriate amount of time up to 6 hours 5 Disconnect the charger when the LED light on the charger is green The batteries have been fully charged If your Chargers LED status light does not change from red to green over an extended period of time for perhaps more than 8 hours and the battery is very hot the battery or charger may need replacing Stop charging and bring both to your Daymak dealer imme diately Do not charge the battery N O DAYMI Battery Care Follow these suggestions to maintain your battery s optimal perfor
