3.3.1. Starting Card / Wristband Copy
We will provide you with a Brinco Master card. This card allows you to make up to 10 card/
wristband copies.
To make a copy from your Master card you should purchase a blank card or wristband at
your Bultaco Motors S.A. Dealer and follow these steps:
1. Turn on your Brinco using the Master card.
2. Turn off your Brinco using the blank card/wristband. At this time your copy will be
complete.
3. Turn on your Brinco again with the new copy of the card/wristband to check it works
properly.
REMEMBER THAT YOU CAN MAKE
10 COPIES FROM YOUR MASTER CARD.
IF YOU LOSE YOUR MASTER CARD
GO TO YOUR BULTACO MOTORS S.A.
DEALER.
The Brinco is designed for combined riding by both pedalling and with electrical
assistance from the engine incorporated into the rear wheel.
By default, the system is put in ECO mode after starting up. Press the “MODE” button
(short press) to change to TOUR or SPORT mode
[See section 2.5].
The prolonged use in non-combined mode (without pedalling), at high engine torque
in steep terrain, as well as riding for a long time in SPORT mode will lead to greater
energy consumption that could cause the engine, controller or battery to overheat.
In these situations a self-protection system will be automatically activated which
progressively reduces the maximum power available as a function of the temperature and
external stress.
Activation of this self-protection system is displayed on the dashboard through
warning lights for the various phases:
- A first phase with a slow flashing light will slightly reduce performance.
- A second phase with a rapid flashing light that will further reduce performance.
- A third phase with a continuous light that will stop the vehicle.
If the flashing warning light appears, it is recommended that the Brinco power level
be reduced and assisted by pedalling so that the warning level with a continuous
light, that would mean the vehicle coming to a complete stop, is not reached.
If this state is reached the self-protection system will completely disconnect the engine’s
power source. You should wait for some time until the temperature returns to normal
operating values before starting the vehicle again.
3.4. During the ride
ECO MODE IS THE MOST RECOMMENDED
FOR USE IN AREAS WITH STEEP, LONG
SLOPES.
IF YOU ONLY USE YOUR BRINCO IN
ELECTRIC MODE, CONSUMPTION AND
TEMPERATURE WILL INCREASE AND
RIDING RANGE WILL DROP.
PLAN YOUR ROUTE IN ADVANCE.
IF THE PERFORMANCE DEMAND EXCEEDS
THE PHYSICAL LIMITS OF THE BRINCO,
THE POWER WILL BE TEMPORARILY
DISCONNECTED UNTIL THE SYSTEM
TEMPERATURE DROPS SUFFICIENTLY
ENOUGH BEFORE RESTARTING THE
VEHICLE.
