Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Falcon Heritage, always store the battery indoors in a temperature-controlled environment during winter months to preserve cell health. Before your first ride, ensure the quick-release levers are tightened and the battery is fully locked into the rear rack using the provided key. The chain should be kept lubricated, and the V-brakes should be checked periodically to ensure the pads are making even contact with the wheel rim. Charging takes approximately 5 hours; avoid leaving the charger connected to the wall indefinitely after the indicator shows a full charge.
