Driving without drive assistance
You .can .also .drive .your .FLYER .without .drive .as-
sistance .by .selecting .the .assistance .mode ."OFF". .
However, you must ensure that your system is
always .switched .on.
Never . drive . without . a . battery . or . with .
your system switched off, as the func-
tions of the operating unit and the light-
ing functions are not available in this
case.
Always .remove .the .battery .before .clean-
ing, .maintaining .or .repairing .your .e-bike.
Ensure that you do not touch and thus
possibly connect contacts when clean-
ing .or .maintaining .the .battery.
You .risk .being .hurt .and .the .battery .may .
suffer .damage .if .the .contacts .are .live.
Do . not . use . a . strong . water . jet . or .
high-pressure .cleaner .for .cleaning. .The .
cleaning . liquid . may . enter . sealed . bear-
ings due to high pressure, dilute the
lubricant . and . increase . friction. .As . a . re-
sult, rust is formed which destroys the
bearings. .Cleaning .with .a .high-pressure .
cleaner may damage the electrical sys-
tem.
The following are not suitable for clean-
ing .your .FLYER .e-bike:
• Acids
• Fats
• Oil
• Brake cleaner (only to use on brake
discs)
• Solvent-based .liquids.
These damage the surfaces and contrib-
ute .to .wear .on .the .FLYER .e-bike.
After .use, .ensure .that .you .dispose .of .the .
lubricant, cleaning and care products in an
environmentally . friendly . way. .These . sub-
stances do not belong in domestic waste,
in .the .drain .or .in .natural .environments.
Smooth operation and durability of your
FLYER . e-bike . depend . on . appropriate .
maintenance .and .care .for .your .FLYER.
• Regularly . clean . your . FLYER . with .
warm water, small amounts of clean-
ing .agent .and .a .sponge.
• While . cleaning . the . FLYER, . always .
check .your .e-bike .for .cracks, .notches .
or .material .deformities.
• Damaged parts must be replaced with
original .spare .parts. .Please .only .ride .
your . FLYER . again . after . this . check .
has .been .carried .out.
• Have any paint damage removed by
your .FLYER .specialist .retailer.
Further important information concerning care for
your .FLYER .e-bike .is .provided .on .the .website .of .
the .respective .component .manufacturer.
