The VADO SL motor offers five different drive settings. TURBO, SPORT, ECO, OFF and SMART CONTROL.
TURBO MODE: Maximum power mode for high speed sections and climbing.
SPORT MODE: Maximum control, with sufficient power on demand.
ECO MODE: Most efficient mode for maximum range while offering good power.
OFF MODE: The motor will not offer any assistance, but the display and lights will still function.
SMART CONTROL MODE: The motor, while pedaling, adjusts the power output based on the ride parameters
determined in the Mission Control App.
INFO: The SMART CONTROL indicator light will only be visible on the TCU when the bicycle is
connected to the Mission Control App, and is in SMART CONTROL mode.
