LEGAL REQUIREMENTS
Please check your country or state's regulations on electric bikes before riding. There are variations on age limit, speed, motor wattage, and road accessibility. Visit this website for more information:
https://peopleforbikes.org/our-work/E-Bikes/policies-and-laws/ In most European countries and Australia, the rules of public traffic pertaining to bicycles also apply to E-Bikes traveling up to 25 km/h. However, there are some notable differences (such as the age limit of the cyclist).

In North America
Each Altai E-Bike comes programmed in speed restriction mode, which allows for throttle operation and pedal assist up to 19.88 mph. This allows the Altai to be legally ridden on most bike paths without a license or insurance.
For areas where throttle-powered electric bicycles are not allowed, the Altai can be operated using pedal assist up to 28 mph.

WARNING
Never adjust settings while in motion. Pull over and practice safe riding. Simultaneously operating your E-Bike and using the app puts you at risk for collision and serious injury.
In Europe
Altei follows EPAC (Electrically Power Assisted Cycles) operating standards with pedal assist up to 25 km/h and 250 watts of power output (street legal for all European countries).
Pedal assist up to 45 km/h is available only for private land use.
It is the rider's responsibility to follow local E-Bike regulations. Be sure that you are up to date with your local motor vehicle codes.
DISPLAY SCREEN INFORMATION
The main display presents several important metrics as follows:
| Battery level graphic | Representation of how much charge remains in the battery. |

- If the seat is dusty or dirty, use a cloth with gentle soap and water for cleaning.
- Do not leave the seat exposed to the sun for prolonged periods of time, as the sun's UV rays can damage the fabric.
- Avoid wearing clothes that may puncture or tear the seat.
SUSPENSION
- Clean and grease the suspension system regularly to keep the suspension components in optimal working condition.
- Regularly check and properly adjust the suspension system. Failure to do so may result in injury.
HYDRAULIC BRAKES
There are several components that make up the braking system.
The hydraulics need to be inspected and serviced for wear and tear.
- If the hydraulic brakes are worn, they must be replaced. The time frame for when a replacement is needed varies by riding time, mileage, riding style, and terrain.
- Maintenance is required on the pads, rotors, and hydraulic brake line.
- Avoid contamination of the pads and the disc brakes from greasy substances.
- Regularly check the condition of your cables, ducts, harness, and pads.

NOTICE
If there appears to be any issues with your braking system (or any other parts), do not ride your E-Bike. Contact our support team or visit your local authorized mechanic store.
CHAIN
It is recommended that you inspect the chain tensioner for wear and tear. Periodically lube the chain. If the chain is sagging or seems more loose than normal, you may need to tighten the chain.
It is recommended that you purchase chain lube for daily chain maintenance.
To apply the chain lube, deposit a drop on the top of each chain link. The lube will work its way into the chain.

WARNING
Wipe off any excess lube as it can attract dirt. Be careful to not get lube in the brake calipers or pads.
