USE ONLY THE CHARGER SUPPLIED

Power Charge

CHARGING THE BATTERY

The battery can be charged on or off the bike.

To remove the battery, remove the saddle,unlock the battery with one of the two keysprovided and slide upwards and out of theframe.Insertion is the reverse of the aboveprocedure. Ensure that the battery is fullyseated and locked back into position using the key.

The charging lead is plugged into thecharging socket located behind the cover onthe upper right side of the battery.

IMPORTANTIt is important to plug the charger into thebattery before switching on at the mains.Similarly, switch off at the mains beforeunplugging the charger from the battery.

7

If your BATRIBIKE is not in use for an extended period it isimperative that you charge the battery before storage and thencharge the battery once a month to prevent deterioration.When not in use, store the battery in a warm, dry place.

If Lithium batteries are left flat for anextended period then they may no

longer be functional and a newreplacement will be required.

With correct User Care as outlined above your battery should have a lifetime ofaround 1000 charges.

FAILURE TO FOLLOWTHIS PROCEDURE WILLINVALIDATE YOUR

BATTERY WARRANTY

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.

The RED light indicates that mains power is applied. Theother light will show ORANGE/RED whilst charging is takingplace. This may take up to six hours for a flat battery.When the battery is charged the ORANGE/RED light willchange to GREEN.

Once charged, switch off at the wall outlet and unplug. Unplug the charging leadfrom the battery and slide the cover back over the charging socket.

NOTE: If the battery is charged and the charger left switchedon for an extended period the charger will enter a low powerstate, indictaed by both the RED and ORANGE/GREEN LEDsflashing slowly. Switch off and unplug as above.

Alternative Charger TypeAn alternative type of charger may be supplied with one light instead of the twodescribed above. In this case the light is RED when Charging, and GREENwhen the charge cycle is complete.

The battery does not have to be completely discharged before it is recharged.The Lithium battery has no "memory" and therefore can be charged at any time.It is perfectly acceptable to recharge the battery after a short ride so that thebattery is fully charged before the next ride.

LEVEL PERFORMANCE

Provides maximum power whennegotiating hills and head winds.Great when needing to simply get fromA to B as fast as possible.Great for commuting to work.

EXAMPLE OF USAGE

Normal Use Mode.These are the levels to use for everydaycycling. Gives good performance whilstmaximising usable range per charge.Best for Leisure Use.

Use these lower power levels whennegotiating busy cycle paths andcrowded areas. Also use when settingoff and gradually increase through thelevels for a smoother performance.Ideal for negotiating obstacles.

There are 5 levels of pedal assistanceavailable from the motor. Using the Up andDOWN buttons you can select from level 1(LOW) to 5 (HIGH). The motor will then beactivated upon pedalling. There is a rotationsensor located near the crank which senseswhen the pedals are being used.

Pedal Assistance

Please remember that the above values are provided as a guide.Due to manufacturing tolerances the speeds & distances may vary.

13Weather and terrain will affect the performance. In hilly areas orwhen the bike is heavily loaded there will be a significant increasein the power used from the battery and hence the range willdecrease accordingly. A lightly loaded bike will achieve higherperformance levels. (These results were ontained by test riders inoptimal conditions - 75kg rider, level ground, no wind).

Other Functions

The Display can alsoshow diagnosticinformation in theevent of a malfunction.If an error occurs thedisplay will show acode as in the exampleshown. Make a note ofthe error number andturn off the bicyclepower. After 2 minutes turn on the power again. If the code re-occurs contact your dealer for assistance.

If the assistance level is set to 0, (ZERO) then themotor will not be turned on. Your BATRIBIKE will nowact and feel like a normal bicycle. This is useful whenyou are feeling fit at the start of a journey or usingyour bike for exercise purposes. Power is still only abutton press away.

No Assistance - Normal Pedal Bicycle

14

To activate the throttle, select level 6. "Assist 6" willbe displayed on the LCD panel. In this mode thethrottle on the left handlebar, (twist-grip), is now live.In all other assistance levels the throttle is notfunctional.You can still pedal the bike but power will not beapplied until the throttle is activated. To activate, twist

the left grip towards the rider.Use the throttle control gently. A small twist will apply a smallamount of power. Twisting more will increase the power until thecontrol is fully rotated at which point full motor power will beapplied.Throttle assistance can also be used without pedalling.A handy way to use the throttle is to pull away from junctions, orwhen starting on inclines as the rider will pull away easier and isless likely to wobble. It can also be very useful for pulling out andovertaking slower cyclists smoothly and quickly.

Using the Throttle - Country Specific

PLEASE NOTE:The throttle control is not activated for some countries due to legal

restrictions. Please refer to your dealer for help and advice.

15

If you want help in setting off on inclines or toget a smooth getaway at junctions and trafficlights, there is a system available wherebythe motor can be applied even when noassistance is selected. This is known asLaunch Assist and is activated by holdingdown the DOWN button for 2 seconds.

Launch Assist

The motor will be switched on in low speedand will continue on until the DOWN buttonis released. The bicycle will be powered atapproximately 4 MPH, (6 KMH). Whilst themotor is activated the running man sysmbolwill be displayed. (Flashing).

The system is designed for intermittent useand should not be used for more than a fewseconds at a time. If you want continuouspower then one of the Assist modes shouldbe selected.

BS EN15194 Compliance

The BATRIBIKE SPRINT conforms to BS EN15194.

For the British market, the addition of a throttle control hasrendered this not compliant in some countries.● You are recommended to seek advice from the relevant

authorities in the country you are visiting before travelling.

16

CYCLE COMPUTER

The LCD models have useful Cycle Computer functions built in. There is a builtin sensor and pickup located in the rear hub which activates the speed anddistance readings.

When first turned onthe display shows theTrip Time (TM) in thetop right and the TripDistance (DST) in thebottom right. TheSpeed is always shownin the centre rightsection of the display.

Normal Display

To change the display to show the Total Time(TTM) and Odometer Distance (ODO), simplypress the POWER button momentarily.

Total Time and Distance

NOTE

The Trip Time (TM) and Trip Distance (DST) will be reset to zero when thepower is turned off. This will also happen if the bicycle is not used for anextended period and the power is turned off automatically.

17

When Total Time and Odometer havebeen selected, clicking the UP or DOWNbuttons sets the display to show AverageSpeed (AVS) or Maximum Speed (MXS)in the centre section.

Average Speed

Momentarily pressing the POWER button willreturn the display to Normal showing the TripTime (TM) and Trip Distance (DST).

MAINTAINANCE SCHEDULE

Maintaining your bicycle ensures you’ll get the most out of every ride and out ofthe entire life of your BATRIBIKE electric bike. How much of your bike’smaintenance you can do yourself will depend on your knowledge, skill,experience and whether you have the necessary tools for the job.

Beyond this manual, it is good to consult your BATRIBIKE dealer for advice ifyou are at all unsure about any of the procedures described. Normalmaintenance is not covered under the warranty and this service may bechargeable.

Before every ride● Mechanical safety checks, (see notes on page 2). Use a fullycharged battery. Visual inspection for damages.

After every ride (or WEEKLY)● Clean the bike, including chain rings and sprocket. Clean andlightly oil the chain and gears.

● This must be carried out after every ride in dusty, marine orwinter conditions due to the salt laden atmosphere.

Every 20 - 30 hours of riding (or MONTHLY)● Squeeze the brakes and rock the bike to check for anylooseness of the headset or brake mechanisms with each forward ofbackward movement. If any are loose, have your dealer check it.

● Lift the front wheel and turn handlebars left and right to check fortightness of steering. If tightness is detected it may be necessary tolubricate bearings and/or adjust the headset.

● Check and adjust the brakes, replace if worn out.● Squeeze spokes in adjoining pairs between your thumb andindex finger.They all should have the same tension. Have your dealer re-spoke ortrue the wheel if necessary.

● Check cables for rust, kinks and fraying, have your dealerreplace them if necessary.

● Check bottom bracket for play and adjust if necessary.● Check wheel bearings for play and adjust/lubricate if necessary

23After 3,000 miles (5,000 km) (or YEARLY)● Hub motor and general inspection

We recommend you arrange to have a thorough inspection ofyour bicycle by a BATRIBIKE dealer. This includes opening upthe hub motor to inspect and lubricate the gears.

Tyre PressuresThe tyres should be pumped up to within the range stated on the sidewall.This should be regularly checked as running with the correct pressureswill ensure maximum range from the battery.

Repairing a punctured tyreIf you have a punctured tyre, we recommend that you get a specialist to carryout the repairs. You can always of course consult a specialist and carry out therepairs on your own if you are confident that you have the necessary skills.As there are no electronic components on the front wheel, its removal followsstandard procedures as with normal bicycles.

Removing the Rear WheelIf you need to remove the rear wheel, forexample, to replace the rear tyre, then themotor can be unplugged to aid disassembly.The plug is located on the lower rear arm ofthe frame as shown, (Left).

Take care when re-assembling the plug toensure that the two arrows are alignedcorrectly.

Remember to ensure that the cable issuitably secured to the bicycle frameupon re-assembly.

Be mindful of the tightening assembly sequence of washers, nuts and spacers.
