01 - INTRODUCTION 1.1 Manual Info & Symbols

MANUAL SYMBOLS

WARNING!

This symbol indicates a hazardous situation which could result in

serious injury or death. Riding bicycles can result in loss of control or

falls which may result in injury or death, this manual doesn’t always

repeat the warning of possible injury or death.

CAUTION!

This symbol indicates a potential hazardous situation which could result

in a minor or moderate injury. This symbol may also alert against unsafe

practices. The symbol will also be used as a safety alert to indicate a

situation where damage to the bicycle/EPAC will void your warranty.

INFO

This symbol indicates to the reader that the information is important to

the user and product.

PLEASE NOTE: This manual was drafted in the English language and may

have been translated to other applicable languages. This manual assumes

that you have basic knowledge or experience of riding pedelecs/bicycles.

Thanks for choosing to purchase this Whyte product. We hope you will

enjoy all the benets of its advanced design and engineering.

This manual will guide you through the set-up, safety and operation

procedures that are specic to your Whyte bike. Please read it carefully,

it is essential you read this ‘EPAC Owners Manual’ for your own safety and

others around you. Failure to do so could lead to damaging your product

and injury.

Your Whyte Bike’s component specications that are tted as standard

may be obtained from the Whyte Bikes website www.whytebikes.com.

Please remember, if you are in any doubt about your ability to safely

assemble, service, or repair your Whyte bike, DO NOT RIDE IT and instead

arrange for a professional bicycle mechanic at your local Whyte retailer

to do the job correctly.

INFO

Whyte Bikes website www.whytebikes.com

Inuences - Never ride your eBike/pedelec whilst using

headphones. Never ride whilst operating your mobile phone

or other electronic device. Never ever ride your bike under the

inuence of alcohol or drugs. Failure to follow these strict rules

could lead to a serious accident or even death.

Riding conditions - Under wet and slippery conditions please

consider your cornering and braking. Make adaptions to your

riding by decreasing your speed, braking earlier, and gradually

applying braking force. Braking distance is likely to be signicantly

increased especially in off- road conditions. Ensure you ride at an

appropriate speed for the conditions, terrain, and your ability.

Bicycle carrier - Child carrier or seat - Trailer

Whyte bicycles are only designed and tested for use by one

person at a time. Carrying a child, pet, or cargo load on your

Whyte bicycle is at your own risk. If you choose to install an

accessory on your E-Lyte model such as a child carrier or a

trailer, make sure it is compatible and refer to the manufacturer’s

instructions. Do not attach a child carrier, trailer, or similar

accessory to a composite or carbon bre part or component,

either directly or indirectly. For example, do not attach a trialer to

a rear axle when the rear triangle is made of composite or carbon

bre. Likewise, do not attach a trailer to a composite or carbon

seat-post or a child carrier to a composite or carbon fork.

Failure to follow the warnings in this manual may result in damage

to the components on your bicycle and will void your warranty,

but, most importantly, may result in serious personal injury or

death. If your bicycle exhibits any signs of damage, do not use it

and immediately take it to your authorised Whyte Bikes retailer for

inspection.

01 - INTRODUCTION 1.2 Product Warnings

The Whyte Bosch system can only be activated when there is sufciently

charged battery installed. Please check the ‘CHARGING’ section of this

manual which shows how to charge your bicycle safely. If a sufciently

charged battery is installed and the eBike system is switched on, pedal

assistance can be engaged when pedal force is applied. For all pedal

assist modes please nd the correct operating system in this manual.

Bosch Power - Your Whyte/Bosch bicycle features a powerful

pedal assist when force is applied to the pedals. Familiarize

yourself with your bike’s ride and pedal assist characteristics in a

safe and at environment. Ensure you feel comfortable with your

bikes performance before riding in public areas where you may

put other peoples safety at risk.

Keep your ngers away - Do not place your ngers or tools near

the Drive unit. Maintenance and repair of the drive unit should

only be performed by an authorised Whyte Bike service centre.

Modications - Do not modify the Bosch Drive unit or any

components directly connected to the drive unit. Maintenance

and repair of the drive unit should only be performed by an

Authorised Whyte Service Centre. Any attempt to modify the

Drive unit may result in serious personal injury or death, and will

immediately void the bicycle’s warranty.

Tyres - Never inate a tyre beyond the lower of the two values

of the maximum pressure marked on the tyres sidewall and the

maximum pressure marked on the rim that the tyre is installed

on. Exceeding the recommended maximum pressure may blow

the tyre off the rim, which could cause damage to the bike and

injury to the rider and bystanders.

01 - INTRODUCTION 1.3 Rider Advice

Rider advice

Riding an eBike offers a very different experience to riding a conventional

bicycle with no motor. The injection of power and increased weight can

change your riding approach. Below are some considerations to ensure

safe riding, reduce component wear, and increase battery range.

• Additional weight can affect braking distances. Consider your speed

when entering corners and trail features. Pedalling through corners

or trail features will increase your speed and may exceed the riders

control.

• Shifting gears efciently dependant upon gradient and terrain

ensures an efcient cadence reducing wear to drive-train

components. This will also extend the battery life of the eBike.

• Check tyre pressures regularly to ensure optimum grip and roll

efciency. Store the eBike indoors and where possible avoid storing

in temperatures lower than 5 degrees.

Rider advice

Ensure that the eBike is properly sized for the user. Check your owners

manual for assistance with size adjustments. Please ensure you have read

the sections in your owners manual regarding set up, mechanical checks,

and safety checks. Please see advice below specic to EPACs.

• Check battery charge level prior to every ride.

• Ensure you are familiar with the display functions.

• Ensure you are familiar with the remote functions.

• Make sure the bike is disconnected from the charger before every

ride.

Please note the use of a Pedelec/E-MTB by children or adolescents under

the age of 14 is not recommended and illegal on UK public pathways.

Please check your regions laws and restrictions.

Fellow riders and your environment

Always be courteous to other trail users. Use extra caution around

domestic animals, such as dogs and horses. Give other trail users right-

of-way in all situations. Take care in urban areas where human trafc is

greatly increased.

The E-Lyte has been designed for off-road riding. Please see the

‘regulations and usage’ section of this manual to learn about your bikes

capabilities. This bike is not designed for extreme forms of riding that

include hardcore Dirt Jumping, Free-riding, Downhill, or North Shore trails.

Riding your bike in environments that it hasn’t been designed for could

lead to mechanical failure and put the rider at risk.

Public roads

Before riding your Whyte E-Lyte, please inform yourself of all applicable

legal requirements and regulations in your country, state, and/or province.

There may be restrictions on riding your E-Lyte bicycle on public roads,

cycling paths, and/or trails. There may also be applicable helmet and light

requirements, age restrictions, license or insurance requirements. Whyte

Bikes encourages its bike owners to research all legal requirements for

their own safety. Failure to do so puts the rider and others around them

at risk, voids warranty, and support from Whyte Bikes will not be offered.

As laws and regulations regarding electric bicycles vary by country and/

or state and province and are constantly changing, please make sure to

obtain the latest information. Please read this manual fully and if you have

any further questions please contact your Whyte Bikes retailer.
