Assistance Mode, Range
Selecting degree of assistance
With the Mode button on the operating unit you can select one of three different assistance modes at any time.
Press the Mode button until you arrive at the mode you require.
The best amount of assistance and the consequent range of the battery depend on a number of factors which are best determined by trial and
error.
Always cycle in as high a gear as possible because no more assistance is given if the pedalling rhythm is too high.
The assistance system is switched off automatically when you are not pedalling.
Range
The range achieved by a fully charged battery depends on a number of factors, e.g. the Assistance Mode selected, your own physical fitness,
your use of the gears, your body weight, luggage weight, tyre pressure, road surface, topography, air temperature, or whether you are cycling in
the town (i.e. frequently starting and stopping) or the country.
Thus, for the same battery power, you may be able to cycle over 50 km or only 20 km depending on circumstances.
