CEMOTO D Series App Guide: Parental Speed Limits, NFC Unlock, and Smart Display Cemotoride

Set speed limits, run pre-ride checks, and unlock your CEMOTO D Series bike with NFC.

Parents can set a speed limit on a CEMOTO D Series electric dirt bike equipped with the app-connected smart display. With the bike stopped and connected over Bluetooth, open Riding Mode → Speed Limit in the CEMOTO app. For supervised off-road practice, start with a lower limit while your teen gets comfortable with the throttle, braking, and turning.

How parents can set a speed limit

With the bike stopped and connected to the CEMOTO app over Bluetooth, open Riding Mode → Speed Limit and set the limit before practice. Stay with your teen during practice. CEMOTO D Series bikes are intended for riders aged 13 and older on private property, tracks, or approved off-road areas.

What the CEMOTO app shows

After Bluetooth pairing, the app home screen is the starting point. You’ll see shortcuts to device information, battery information, and riding settings, so you know where the controls are before the first ride.

The app also includes a vehicle checkup screen. You can run a test and see whether the power system reports a problem before a ride.

Unlock the bike with NFC

Hold a paired NFC card near the smart display to unlock the bike. This is useful when you want to leave your phone in your pocket.

Treat paired NFC cards like physical keys. Keep a spare card in a safe place.

If a card is lost, you can still unlock the display with a password, then purchase a replacement NFC card. If you forget the password, you can view it in the CEMOTO app on the primary phone. Pair the replacement card before using it.

If the app is not bound, the NFC cards are lost, and the password is forgotten

If the bike has never been paired with the CEMOTO app, all paired NFC cards are lost, and you’ve forgotten the display password, the usual unlock methods are unavailable. Contact CEMOTO support to ask what options are available for your bike.

Bind the bike to one primary phone during setup, keep at least one NFC card in a safe place, and make sure you know where to find the display password in the app.

Can older CEMOTO bikes get the app?

An older D Series bike can gain app support by installing a compatible smart display. Confirm compatibility for your specific model with CEMOTO before ordering. After the new display is fitted, pair the bike with the CEMOTO app over Bluetooth to view bike information, set a speed limit, and use NFC unlock.

One bike, one primary phone

Each CEMOTO bike can be bound to only one primary phone. Use that phone to open the app, set the speed limit, and view the display password.

If you change phones, remove the bike from the app on the old phone, then pair it with the app on the new phone.
