Before you change anything
⚠ Read this page fully first. Two parameters — P03 (voltage) and P14 (current limit) — can damage the battery, controller and motor if set outside specification. Damage caused by out-of-spec parameter values is not covered by warranty. See Warranty Claims.
Write down the current value of any parameter before you change it.
The parameters

Notes
P01
Display brightness / backlight
Cosmetic
P02
Speed unit — 
0 = KM/H, 
1 = MPH
See Changing the Speed Unit
P03
Voltage level
Must match your pack — 36V / 48V / 72V. Wrong value = real faults
P04
Dormancy / sleep timer
Minutes before the display sleeps
P05
Backlight brightness
Cosmetic
P06
Wheel diameter
Affects speedo accuracy
P07
Speed signal magnets
1–
255. Wrong value makes the speedo read wrong
P08
Speed limit
0–
100 km/h. 
0 = no limit
P09
Zero-start / non-zero-start
Whether the throttle works from a standstill
P10
Drive mode
0 = power, 
1 = electric, 
2 = coexist (pedal + motor)
P11
Assist sensitivity
1–
24
P12
Start intensity
0–
5. How hard the motor comes in from a stop
P13
Magnet disk count
5 / 
8 / 
12 — must match the PAS disk fitted
P14
Controller current limit
Default 12 A, range 1–20 A. Above specification damages the controller and motor
P15
Undervoltage threshold
Protects the pack from over-discharge. Do not lower this to chase range
P16
ODO reset
Long-press up for ~5 seconds to clear
P17
Cruise control
On/off
The three that actually matter
P03 voltage. Set it to the wrong level and the controller misreads the pack state — producing low-voltage and charging faults that look like hardware failures.
P14 current limit. Raising it beyond specification is the fastest way to destroy a controller and motor. It is not a safe "free power" upgrade.
P15 undervoltage. Lowering it to squeeze out more range deep-discharges the pack, which shortens its life. The protection is there for a reason.
After changing a parameter
Save / exit the menu properly.
Power cycle — off, then on.
Confirm the expected change (speedo unit, speed cap, assist level).
Record what you changed in the Maintenance Log.
