# Fazua Ride60 System Overview
## Let’s dive into the Fazua RIDE 60 system powering your Santa Cruz e-bike! Whether you’re a seasoned pro or a total newbie, here’s the lowdown on how this system works.
### **The Heart of the System: The Drive Unit**
The **Drive Unit** is the powerhouse that turns battery juice into pedaling support. It’s permanently installed and works with a **speed sensor and magnet** on the rear wheel to figure out exactly how fast you're going.
- **The Switch-Off:** In the US, the motor support automatically taps out once you hit **20 mph (32 km/h)**. Once you drop back below that speed, the motor kicks back in.
### **The Brain: Control Element & Display**
You’ve got two main ways to control the magic, depending on your bike model:
1. **Control Hub:** A combined unit that handles both settings and info.
2. **Ring Control + LED Hub:** Two separate pieces. Use the Ring Control to change settings and the LED Hub (usually on the top tube) to see your status.
### **Ride Modes (Choose Your Adventure)**
- **No Support (White):** All you, baby. No motor help.
- **Breeze (Green):** Gentle help for maximum range.
- **River (Blue):** The "just right" mode for most rides.
- **Rocket (Pink):** Full power for those beastly climbs.
- **Boost Function:** Need a momentary superhero surge? This gives you **450 watts** for a short burst (4 seconds from a stop, 12 seconds while riding). Just press and hold the operating switch up for 2 seconds to activate it.
### **The Juice: Battery & Charging**
Your bike features either a permanently installed battery or a removable one.
- **The Display:** The LED display has 5 lights. Each light represents **20% charge**.
- **Charging:** You can charge through the port on the bike frame or remove the battery (if applicable) and charge it separately. **Pro tip:** Always charge within the recommended temperature range to keep the battery happy.
### **Bonus Features**
- **Push Assist:** If you’re walking the bike up a steep hill, this helps it roll along at up to **3.7 mph (6 km/h)**.
- **App Connectivity:** Want to get even more custom? Connect to the **FAZUA app** via Bluetooth to tweak your support levels and check your battery health (SOH)
### **Keep it Clean (and Safe!)**
- **Washing:** Gently clean the exterior with a soft cloth or brush. **Never** use a high-pressure washer—it’s like a fire hose for your electronics.
- **Safety First:** Always check that your speed sensor and magnet are aligned before you head out. If you see a **Red Flashing LED**, that’s a "Hard Fault"—stop riding and get it serviced!
Now get out there and enjoy the ride!
