Operating Your New E-Bike - Vitilan V3 Operation And Maintenance Manual

The method to turn on the bike is:
I. Twist the battery lock counterclockwise to the end to turn on the battery;
II. Press power button on the left handle bar until the display lights on;
III. Ride on the bike and twist the throttle bar or pedal the bike, the bike will move, you can
change the power level with control buttons, level 1 is the slowest and level 5 is the
fastest, level 0 is human model.
Your e-bike is driven by a motor embedded in the hub of the rear wheel. The motor is
powered by a battery. The amount of power delivered to the motor, and hence the
accelerating force on the e-bike, is controlled by you in a way according to the power-
assisted mode or full power mode you choose.
You can configure the e-bike to operate in the pedal-assist-only-mode or the full power
mode (should check against local laws to ensure full power mode is permitted) where you
can also use the hand throttle to deliver power to the motor.
Your First Ride
(Reprinted from the Safety and Compliance with the Law section)
Please be VERY CAREFUL when you are ready to get on your e-bike for the first time
because the e-bike moves significantly faster than a regular bicycle at active power-
assisted mode. Take your e-bike to an area with a lot of open space before you start.
Do not start pedaling hard as soon as you get on the e-bike (as you normally would do
with a regular bicycle), as the e-bike will accelerate under pedal-assist mode and you
may be unprepared for the sudden increase in speed. However, after a few times, you
will enjoy using the pedal-assisted function.
Pedal-Assisted
You must turn on the battery to use the e-bike in pedal-assisted mode.
In the pedal-assisted mode, power assist is triggered when you pedal forward, and
power assist stops when you stop pedaling, sometime would be delay. In other words,
power assist happens as long as you pedal. You don't need to pedal hard. All you need
is to apply a light force to the pedals continuously to maintain the current flow. When
you apply one of the brakes, power assist will automatically stop, allowing the e-bike to
slow down and stop. Power assist will turn itself off when the e-bike has reached the
maximum speed that the power level you choose.
You should use the gear shifter at the handlebar to set the gears appropriately
according to road conditions and pedal, as usual, you will find that you need to exert a
lot less effort and the e-bike travels faster and at a more steady speed.
