your .FLYER .falls .out .of .the .carrier, .it .
can .cause .serious .accidents.
• Avoid .transporting .your .FLYER .on .the .
roof of a vehicle and always cover the
motor with a rain protection cover to
prevent . it . from . becoming . damaged. .

FLYER . e-bike . with . a . rain . protection .
cover.

as tools, luggage and tool bags,

your bike, check afterwards whether
the trigger point of the brake feels softer
than .before. . T hen .slowly .apply .the .brake .
