3 First steps

3.1

Checking the tightening torques

Check that all screws and important components are fas-
tened securely and correctly. You will ind a table with the
prescribed tightening torques for important screw con-
nections in Chapter 30 "Technical data" of the "Original
User Manual | General" (CD).
3.2

Fitting the pedals

It may be that the pedals for your S-Pedelec have yet to be
itted:
The right pedal (marked with an "R") is screwed clockwise
into the right crank arm. The let pedal (marked with an
"L") is screwed anticlockwise into the let crank arm. Both
pedals are screwed in tightly in the direction of the ront
wheel using a size 15 open-ended spanner or a suitable
Allen key. The tightening torque is 40 Nm.
If the pedals are not screwed in straight, the
thread in the crank arm may be severely damaged.
This could lead to serious accidents and injuries.

Adjusting the saddle height

3.3.1 Clamping bolt

If a torque is speciied (in Nm) on the seatpost clamp,
tighten the clamping bolt to this torque. If no tightening
torque is speciied, tighten an M6 bolt (dia. 6 mm) and an
M5 bolt (dia. 5 mm) to 5.5 Nm.

3.3.2 Quick-release device

For opening, the quick-release lever must be folded back
through 180° – you will see the lettering "OPEN". For clos-
ing, fold the quick-release lever back in through 180° –
you will see the lettering "CLOSE".

As a rule of thumb, you can be conident that the
quick-release device is suiciently secure if the
lever can only be closed by applying irm pressure
with the heel of your hand. You will feel increasing
resistance rom the lever, beginning when it is at
approx. 90°. If the seatpost is not clamped irmly
or securely enough, tighten the clamping nut or
turn the screw clockwise by another half a turn
respectively while the quick-release lever is open.
Close the quick-release lever and check that the
saddle is securely fastened once more.
Check that all quick-release levers are fastened
correctly and securely before every journey and
every time you return to your bike having let it
unattended, even for a short time.
With regard to the saddle height, there is a simple
test procedure: Whilst sitting on the saddle, the
heel of your ully-stretched leg should just reach
the pedal in its lowest position. When the ball of
your foot is in the same position, your leg should
be bent slightly.
