HITWAY BK5 Originalbetriebsanleitung Seite 49

Failure to check compatibility, ensure proper installation, operation and
maintenance of components or accessories can result in serious injury or death.
Performance optimisation ( retrofit ) is illegal. According to the German Road Traffic
Permit Ordinance (StVZO), EPACs with motors that can accelerate a bicycle beyond 25
km/h are considered motor vehicles and therefore require a driver's licence of class AM/B.
The manufacturer does not have a licence to sell motor vehicles. For example,
S-Pedelec. As a result, performance optimisation can have the following effects on you:
- The manufacturer's declaration of conformity is invalidated.
- Warranty or liability for defects cannot be claimed.
- Driving without a licence can result in a fine.
