Display Manual for WANDLER Electric Scooters
Your WANDLER electric scooter's display shows you the most important riding information at a glance: speed, battery level, assist level, riding mode, mileage, riding time, and possible error codes.
In this manual, we explain the most important display indicators and button functions. You will also find an overview of error codes and an important note on the internal display settings.
The display is factory-set for your WANDLER model. Do not change any internal setting values such as system voltage, wheel size, or motor parameters, unless explicitly instructed to do so. Incorrect settings can lead to faulty readings, malfunctions, or damage.
Overview: What does the display show?
Depending on the model and display version, individual symbols may vary slightly. However, the basic functions are comparable.
- Speed: current speed, also max or average speed depending on display
- Battery indicator: graphic display of remaining battery level
- Level / Assist Level: selected power or speed level
- Mode: display of selected riding mode, for example Sport, Normal/Comfort or Eco
- ODO / Trip / Time: total distance, trip distance or riding time
- Error: display of possible error codes
- Battery / Voltage: battery voltage or battery information depending on display
1. Speed and Mileage Display
The main area of the display shows the speed. Depending on the selection, the display can switch between various riding information, such as total distance, trip distance, riding time, or battery voltage.
You can switch between available displays using the MENU button. Depending on the display version, it may also be possible to switch between real-time speed, maximum speed, and average speed using a button combination.
2. Riding Time
The riding time indicates how long the vehicle has been used. Depending on the display, the riding time can be shown for a single trip or as a cumulative value.
When the display is reset, the corresponding riding time or trip display starts anew. This can be helpful if you want to track individual rides or sections of a route.
3. Battery Indicator
The battery indicator shows the approximate charge level of the battery. The battery level is often shown in multiple bars. Each bar represents a portion of the available battery capacity.
Note: The battery indicator can fluctuate depending on load, temperature, incline, and riding style. Especially during strong acceleration or low temperatures, the display may appear lower temporarily.
If the battery level is very low or the vehicle significantly loses power under load, the battery should be charged. Avoid continuous riding with a very low battery level.
4. LEVEL Indicator and Assist Levels
The LEVEL indicator shows the currently selected assist level. Depending on the model, the assist level influences power delivery or available speed.
You can select the assist level using the + and - buttons. The exact effect of the levels depends on the specific WANDLER model and vehicle class.
- + increases the assist level or activates stronger motor assistance depending on the model.
- - reduces the assist level or switches to a lower level.
- For the WANDLER A/E, the operating logic may also be linked to all-wheel drive or single-motor operation, depending on the version.
5. Riding Mode: Sport, Comfort/Normal and Eco
The mode indicator displays the selected riding mode. Depending on the model, modes such as Sport, Comfort/Normal, or Eco may be displayed.
The modes influence riding behavior. Sport is usually more direct and powerful, Eco is more economical and reserved. Comfort or Normal is in between.
6. Walk Mode and Cruise Control
Some display versions support a Walk Mode. This serves as a push-assist and moves the vehicle at low speed. This is practical when the scooter needs to be pushed or moved in a confined space.
Additionally, depending on the version, cruise control may be available. Cruise control maintains a selected speed, provided the function is active and conditions are met.
Only use cruise control and walk mode if you are confident in their use. If in doubt, deactivate the function and control the vehicle manually.
7. Error Codes on the Display
If an error is detected, the display may show an error code. The following table shows the most important error codes, their meaning, and the appropriate instructions.
| Error Code | Meaning | Recommended Check |
|---|---|---|
| Error 1 | Power supply / Controller connection | Check power supply and plug connections on the controller – Instructions for Error Code 1 |
| Error 2 | Throttle error | Check throttle, zero position, and plug connection – Instructions for Error Code 2 |
| Error 3 | Faulty connection to the hub motor | Check cable between controller and hub motor, plug connection, and hub motor – Instructions for Error Code 3 |
| Error 4 | Connection between controller and hub motor | Check motor cable, plug connection, controller, and hub motor – Instructions for Error Code 4 |
| Error 5 | Brake error | Check plug connections on brake levers and controller – Instructions for Error Code 5 |
| Error 6 | Battery undervoltage | Charge battery, check battery connection and battery condition – Instructions for Error Code 6 |
| Error 7 | Controller over-temperature protection | Let vehicle cool down, avoid overloading, and have controller checked – Instructions for Error Code 7 |
| Error 8 | Communication error when sending | Check display, control unit, and controller connection – Instructions for Error Code 8 |
| Error 9 | Communication error when receiving | Check connection between display and controller – Instructions for Error Code 9 |
8. Discharge Current Display
The discharge current display shows how heavily the battery is currently being loaded. The more power is drawn, the higher the reading.
High discharge current primarily occurs during strong acceleration, on inclines, with heavy loads, or when riding against strong resistance.
9. Button Operation
The exact button assignment may vary slightly depending on the display version. However, the basic functions are comparable:
- MENU: Switch between display information, for example, mileage, riding time, or battery voltage
- +: select higher assist level or stronger assistance
- -: select lower assist level or reduce values depending on the function
- MODE: Change riding mode, if this function is available on your display version
10. Reset Trip Distance
Depending on the display version, the trip distance can be reset using the - button. Often, the button is held down for several seconds.
The trip distance is helpful if you want to better track individual rides, routes, or battery ranges.
11. Settings Menu: Do Not Change Without Instructions
By long-pressing the MENU button, a settings menu can be opened on certain display versions. Here, technical parameters such as unit, system voltage, wheel size, motor parameters, or default assist level may be stored.
These settings are correctly stored at the factory and should not be changed independently. Incorrect values can cause speed, mileage, or vehicle functions to no longer work correctly.
The second menu level is primarily relevant for workshop, service, or factory settings in practice. An increase in performance or legally permissible reprogramming of the vehicle via the display is not intended.

- the display continuously shows an error code
- speed or battery level are obviously displayed incorrectly
- the display does not start or flickers
- buttons no longer respond
- you accidentally changed settings
- a cable or plug on the display is damaged
Do you need help with your display?
If your WANDLER display shows error codes or you are unsure which setting is correct, contact WANDLER Service. It's best to have the model, year of manufacture, error code, and a photo of the display ready.
