• Check whether both wheels are correctly and
firmly attached to the frame and fork, that both
the front and rear wheels rotate freely and that
the rim runs straight past the brakes without
snagging. The tyres must not touch the brakes.
Experts can see from the distance between the
frame or fork and the wheel whether the wheel
turns without snagging.
• Check that both brakes are operating fully.
• Do not set off again without having checked
that the chain is sitting securely on both the
front chain wheel and rear sprockets. It must
be engaged fully with the cogs. If you set off
and the chain jumps off a cog you may fall, at
the risk of very severe injury.
• Check whether the display of the FLYER e-bike
shows a fault message or a warning. Do not
drive your FLYER when a warning is displayed.
Immediately contact your FLYER specialist re-
tailer.
• Check that the display and the battery are un-
damaged. Do not ride your FLYER if there are
any noticeable changes (cracks, scratches,
etc.). Have all parts and functions first checked
by your FLYER specialist retailer.
There is a risk that humidity or water
may penetrate the motor if the housing
of your battery is cracked. This may lead
to short circuits or electrical shocks. Im-
mediately stop using the battery in this
case and contact your FLYER specialist
retailer. Do not charge the battery.
If you notice any changes to your bicycle, DO
NOT continue cycling. Do not retighten any loose
parts without first checking them and always use
a torque wrench. Take the FLYER to your FLYER
specialist retailer, describe the fall to them and
have the bicycle checked out!

bike to the rider
Installing pedals
Always have your pedals installed or changed
by your FLYER specialist retailer, and feel free to
ask for advice their correct handling. Pedals must
be installed with a suitable spanner. Please note
that the two pedals are screwed on in different
directions and must be fastened with high torque
(see Chapter 24.2). Apply assembly grease to
both threads.
Please take note that the right pedal is different
from the left. You can recognise which pedal be-
longs on which side from the screws which turn in
opposite directions. Usually, an "R" is embossed
on the right pedal with an "L" on the left. Screw the
right pedal clockwise and the left pedal anti-clock-
wise into the cranks.
The pedals must be fastened with a suit-
able spanner. Adhere to the correct fas-
tening torque when screwing on the ped-
als, see Chapter 24.2 "Fastening torques
for screw connections". Ensure that the
pedals are fitted straight. If they are fitted
at an angle, there is a danger of break-
ing and of having a fall!
For safety reasons, we strongly advice
not using pedals with clips or straps.
