Safety Instructions Please read these safety instructions carefully before the first use: - Before starting, check if the battery is well connected, especially if you have disconnect for

charging

- Before starting, check the function of the brakes

- turn the key switch to “ON”

Attention:

- When you stop „off“ the key switch at the controller case

- If you interrupt riding for a longer time „off“ the switch at the battery (otherwise the

battery will be discharged by itself)

- At disconnecting the bike or move the bike forward and rank, always turn off the motor. If

the bike is unguarded remove the key or

- Put the driving gas to 0 to avoid unintentional driving by moving the crank handle.

If you are not using the battery for a longer time (winter season) store the battery

completely charged and charge again every 4 month to avoid damage of the battery

(deep discharge). - use only our charger

- don’t choose the fastest speed in narrow or busy places

- keep the device out of reach of children especially don’t allow somebody to enter anything into

the battery, risk of explosion or fire

- for loading the electro drive lipo into the car, remove the battery-

- driving uphill: For protecting the system, watch the battery temperature at the display (see page

12) while driving up the hill. The temperature shouldn’t go over 45 degrees Celsius.

Owner’s manual

1. Speed control and pedelec sensor

1.1 Paraversion

- At the ergo handle there is a thumb throttle for controlling the speed and a brake lever

with interrupter as well as a locking mechanism (picture 1).

- Since 15th of July 2014 there is no brake interrupter installed anymore.

- The brake lever on right has no interrupt and is therefore useful for starting at a slope.

- You can drive with the thumb throttle between 6 to 25 km/h without pedaling

depending on the law of your country. When you start pedaling, the pedelec sensor

perceive it, and then the thumb throttle at the ergo handle will be deactivated. Now

the control at the handhold is controlling the speed (picture 2).

- Furthermore there is a 3speedswitch for a pre-adjustment of the speed (picture 3).

The brake lever on the left side has an electrical interrupt. While using it the electronic is switched

off.

The brake lever on right has no interrupt and is therefore very useful for starting at a slope.

Use always both brake levers for braking.

1.2 Tetraversion

1- speed control for chin operation

2- starting aid button: press one second and the Lipo Smart starts two seconds long

2. Operation of the Lipo Smart

Check if all components are screwed tight. The cables may not disturb the steering and must

be fixed narrow to the frame. No cable may be damaged.

3. Start – Journey - End

Use fully charged battery. Choose a calm place for using the Lipo Smart the first time.

Start:

key switch „on“(picture 5; you can remove the key now to avoid losing it while riding)

Turn the grip throttle for acceleration.

End:

On/Off- switch at the battery “off” (picture 7), key switch at controller case „off“(picture 6)

and remove the key

key position:

3.1 Light switch (1)

To on and off the 36V LED lamp.

3.2 3-speedswitch (2)

To adjust the performance and speed limit of the bike. Level 1 (50%), level 2 (75%)

and level 3 (100%) of the maximal engine performance.

3.3 LED temperature display of engine temperature

Since the 1th of june 2015, the control boxes are equipped with a LED temperature display.

If the Lipo Smart has a LED in the control box but is without a temperature sensor in the motor, the

LED has no function.

• Is a coil temperature in the motor (hub) of 150C° reached, the LED lights up.

• If the LED lights up, the speed must be reduced and the manual mode should be increasingly

used.

• If the LED doesn´t stop lightning, the handbike needs to be stopped until the engine has

cooled and the light goes out.

4. Battery, remove the battery, charger and charging of the battery

4.1 Battery

The ElectroDrive Lipo Smart has a maintenance-free 36 Volt Lipo Battery with a capacity of 11,6A.

The battery has no so called memory effect. You can charge all the time.

I.e. no need for totally discharging the battery before charging again.

Attention: The new Lipo Smart models have no fuses.

Batteries are consumables. The warranty is 6 month. Please bring damaged batteries to the labelled

places.

Always turn off at the

Break of journey

4.2 Removing the battery For removing the battery turn the key counterclockwise and pull the battery from the socket.

Attention!

Make sure that the battery is locked (clockwise) before start riding to avoid the falling down of the

battery (picture 9)

Attention!

Always remove the key while riding, to avoid the reopening of the key by itself.

see charging conditions by pushing

the button

if you switch-off the battery main

switch, the display switches-off, too.

4.3 Fuse

The battery has a fuse, 16 A slow.

Our order number is 630947-0. The new batteries (since 2012) with the

yellow casing don’t have a fuse.

Since 2015 the batteries have a fuse again.

4.4 Charger and charging of the battery

10

4.5 Optional equipment: 2 lipo batteries connected at the fork with 2 switches (no standard battery connector on top)

At the controller case there are 2 dipswitches.

One for switch the batteries from right to left because it’s not allowed to connect the batteries

parallel.

And one for switch the display to the correct battery.

Always switch both switches, i.e. the switches must be always in the same position.

Switch case to switch the batteries (the form could diversify)

battery left on duty battery right on duty

11

4.6 Optional equipment: 2 lipo batteries connected at the fork with 4 switches,

with the possibility to connect one battery on top at

the standard battery connector

At the controller case there are 2 dipswitches.

Ones for switch the batteries from right to left because it’s not allowed to connect the batteries

parallel.

And ones for switch the display to the correct battery.

Furthermore 2 more switches to change from up to down.

battery above on duty battery down left on duty

battery down right on duty

12

4.7 Optional equipment: Lead acid batteries at klickfix connector at the fork additional to lipo battery above with switch from lipo battery to lead

acid battery.

The capacity display is not working while lead acid battery is on duty.

The extra battery comes with an automatic charger 36V/1,4A with following performance:

3 steps charge control for fast an automatic charge

different electric tension for charge and maintenance

charging condition is shown by 3 LED‘s

reverse voltage protection

The charger is made for these batteries. Use only this charger to reach the maximum life span and to

avoid a damage of the battery.

For charging you can remove the batteries or you can keep it on the device.

Remove the plug at the battery and connect the plug from the charger to the battery.

Make sure that the charger is connected with the electric supply network. To charge the

battery completely full it will take approx. 3,5 hours.

If you are not using the battery for a longer time (winter season) store the

batteries completely charged and charge again every 2 month to avoid damage of

the batteries (deep discharge).

Please consider the different capacities at different temperatures: 40°C 102%; 25°C 100%; 0°C 85%; -15°C 65%

The plug at the controller case (see underneath) got modified. Therefore a click connection of the

plug is not possible again. The sense of this is to avoid a damage of the cable while removing the

battery.

6. Change of tyres

Before changing the tyre disconnect both connectors (picture 10) by cutting the cable ties open.

Stick it together after the change and fix it with cable ties again (picture 11).

7. Error search

a. Battery switch isn’t on ’ON‘

b. Fuse at the battery is blown

c. Battery is empty

- Display is shining but engine doesn’t start while pedaling

a. raise the speed control

b. key switch is on ’OFF‘

c. brake lever damaged – for testing unplug the connector at the brake lever

d. thumb throttle damaged – check which one, without pedaling the thumb throttle at the

ergo handle activates the engine, while pedaling the control at the handhold controls the

speed
