Kinisi e-cycles are for moving around in Auroville, not for acrobatics. Drive safely!
Battery care
Avoid long exposure to intense rain or sunlight. Riding in the rain or sun is not a problem, just don’t park your e-cycle under a pouring gutter or leave it all day in the full sun. If you have a saddlebag over your rear battery, it will protect the battery. Park your e-cycle in the shade whenever possible.
When only one bar is visible on the display, stop electric assistance and pedal until you can recharge the battery.
You can charge every night from any normal outlet. Power consumption is similar to charging a laptop, so you can use solar and UPS outlets as well. There is no memory effect. Charger will stop automatically once the charge is optimal.
While charging, keep battery and charger uncovered and ventilated.
Locks care
A number lock is provided with your e-cycle. To avoid numbers changing randomly during the ride, lock it on itself and change the number slightly before riding.
When parking, lock both the battery and the e-cycle. You are responsible in case of theft.
