USER MANUAL Townie Go! 7D TREK
Thank you for purchasing your new bicycle. We believe in bicycles. We make high quality bicycles that are built to last. That is why each bicycle we make comes with a limited lifetime warranty. We wish you many carefree and enjoyable rides with your new bicycle! However, if you experience any problems with your bicycle, do not hesitate to contact your local retailer. If the problem persists, please call our customer service for a solution.
1. Even if you have ridden a bicycle for years, it is important for every person to read the general “Bicycle
Owner’s manual” and the specific “Electric Bicycle Owner’s manual” carefully before you ride on the new electric bicycle.
- Both manuals contains detailed information and useful suggestions about your new bicycle.
- Make sure that you understand the proper use, maintenance, and disposal of the components of the electrical system of your new electric bicycle.
2. Think about safety. Your safety and that of other road users is very important.
Do not ride the electric bicycle without the battery. The battery must be on the bicycle while riding, else the bicycle has no lights when needed.
- Check your bicycle for normal operation, loose parts and defects before riding. If you find any problem, visit your bicycle dealer for repairs before riding.
- Be aware that other road users (cars, trucks, motorcycles) do not expect that an electric bicycle can ride faster than a normal bicycle. Riding faster also increases the risk of accidents. Distances will close much faster, and braking distances will become longer.
- Do not ride abusively. Only ride in the use conditions specified for your bicycle: - Electric City/Trekking bicycles are approved for Condition 1 (paved roads with tires staying on the ground). - Electric Mountain bicycles are approved for Condition 3 (rougher surfaces, jumps of not more than 24 inch (61 cm)). Please refer to the general Bicycle Owner’s manual for more detailed information.
- Do not overload the rear rack. The maximum allowable weight for the rear rack on electric bicycles is 44 lb (20 kg) for bicycles with a rear rack battery and 55 lb (25 kg) for bicycles with a down tube battery. On bicycles with a luggage rack at both sides of the rear fender only, without a top deck, the maximum allowed load on the rack is 33 lb (15 kg) in total.
3. The electric system of your new bicycle needs special attention.
- Do not clean your electric bicycle with a high pressure washer. Any electrical system is sensitive to moisture. High pressure water might enter connectors or other parts of the electric system.
- Handle your battery with care. Do not drop or impact the battery. Mishandling of the battery could lead to severe damage or over-heating. In an extremely rare case, a battery that has been severely impacted or otherwise mishandled could potentially catch fire. If you suspect damage to your battery, visit your dealer immediately for inspection.
4. Maintain the battery as instructed in this Electric Bicycle Owner’s manual.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to your battery and may require battery replacement:
- Only charge the battery with the included charger.
- When not using the battery for a longer period, charge it to approximately 60% (three to four LEDs lit on the charge-control indicator). Check the charge condition after six months. When only one LED of the charge-control indicator lights up, recharge the battery again to approximately 60%.
- Once charging the battery is complete, unplug the battery from the charger and unplug the charger from the wall socket. 596221_Rev.2_Electra_Hydrive_E-bike_Owner's manual_important_to_read_US_EN_FR_ES.indd 1 04-Jun-19 12:44:45 3ENGLISH
- A Li-Ion battery will self-discharge over time. If the battery is left uncharged, then stored without charging, it may discharge to such a low state that the battery can no longer be charged and must be replaced.
- Store the battery in a dry, well-ventilated location. Protect the battery against moisture and water.
- Under unfavorable weather conditions, it is recommended e.g. to remove the battery from the bicycle and store it in a protected location.
- The battery can be stored at temperatures between -4°F (-20°C) and 140°F (+60°C). For a long battery life, however, it is best to store the battery at room temperature of approximately 68°F (20°C) is of advantage.
- If the bicycle is not ridden for an extended time, do not store the battery on the bicycle.
5. Be careful when transporting an electric bicycle.
- An electric bicycle is heavier than a normal bicycle. If transporting on a vehicle, be aware of the maximum load capacity of the vehicle’s roof, towing hook and/or the bicycle carrier. Refer to the manuals of the vehicle and bicycle carrier for details.
- Remove the controller (if removable), and battery and, if present, panniers from the bicycle and store them elsewhere in the vehicle during the drive.
- Always respect local laws about transportation of an electric bicycle.
- Because Li-Ion batteries of this size and power are considered ‘Dangerous goods, class 9’ when transporting, regulations may restrict the transport of separate Li-Ion batteries in some places. The restrictions apply to most airlines and some trucking companies. If you intend to ship or travel with your electric bicycle (with installed battery), check with the airline or carrier and local regulations about traveling with a Li-Ion battery.
6. Obey local regulations.
In most countries the regulations for the use of an electric bicycle are the same as those for a standard bicycle. However, there may be local differences such as where you can ride, minimum rider age, or required equipment and registration. It is the rider’s responsibility to know the local regulations that apply to an electric bicycle and to obey them.
7. Mounting accessories on an e-bike.
An electric bike has hidden wiring through frame and has other critical e-bike parts like the drive unit and battery pack. When mounting accessories (e.g. a bottle cage), be sure not to impact the wiring or battery pack, e.g. by using too long or pointed bolts. This might cause a short circuit to the electric system and/or damage to the battery. Warning. A short circuit in the electric system and/or damage to the battery might lead to over-heating. In an extremely rare case, a battery pack that has been severely impacted could potentially catch fire.
8. Visit your dealer on a regular basis for maintenance of your new bicycle.
- Your dealer has the right knowledge and equipment to maintain your e-bike and to mount accessories safely.
