The power button is the control hub for your Ampler e-bike.
We ask you to fully dismount from the bike to operate the button. Do not use the button while riding. Please also note the dangers of accidentally starting the factory reset.
With the power button, you can:
Turn the bike ON and OFF
Bike is off
- 1x short press
- Bike is on
Repeat the process to switch the bike off. It will switch itself off after 5 minutes if you do not move it.
Switch between the different assist modes
Mode 1 (Standard):
Pedelec is switched on.
- The power button lights up depending on the state of charge.
- Press and hold the power button.
- As soon as the power button lights up orange: Release the power button.
- Power button flashes 1x briefly: Standard mode is selected.
- After that, the LED lights up depending on the charging status.
Mode 2 (Max):
Pedelec is switched on.
- Press and hold the power button again.
- As soon as the power button lights up orange: Release the power button.
- Power button flashes 2x briefly: Max mode is selected.
- After that, the LED lights up depending on the charging status.
The bike always maintains the last selected mode.
Switching the lights on and off
Pedelec is switched on.
- Power button lights up depending on the state of charge.
- Press and hold the power button for 1 second.
- The LED changes from red to green.
- Release the power button.
- The light switches on.
The bike always retains the last selected setting (light on or off).
Lights-only mode
Setting the light-only mode via the power button is only possible if your bike has the new firmware version, and thus you are able to use the new Ampler app (green icon). Read more about it here. If you try to set the light-only mode with an old firmware version, you run the risk of triggering a factory calibration.
Pedelec is switched off.
- Power button is off (not lit).
- Press and hold the power button.
- The LED lights up green.
- The light switches on.
- Release the power button.
To switch the motor back on, select assistance mode or switch the Pedelec off and on again. The bike does not retain the setting when you switch it on and off.
You can also toggle all of these settings in the app.
In this video, we show you how it works - unfortunately, the light-only mode is not yet shown here.
