General safety information
•
It is imperative that you carry out the specified
checks and inspections.
•
Protect yourself and others by acting safely
and responsibly and bear in mind at all times
the dangers to which road users are exposed
with the bike!
•
Always wear a helmet which is suitable and
fits properly!
•
Check with your dealer how to position the
helmet correctly so that it provides the effecti-
ve protection for which it is designed.
•
The electric bike is equipped with modern
and complex technology. It has to be handled
with expert knowledge, experience and, whe-
re necessary, specialist tools.
•
Leave all work on your electric bike to your
dealer.
•
We can only describe the most important
points in these instructions. Further informa-
tion and instructions are also provided by the
manufacturers of the components, and these
also have to be observed.
•
The following applies: In case of uncertainty, it
is imperative that you check with your dealer.
•
Seeing and being seen is important! You
should therefore wear brightly colored
clothing or clothing with reflective elements
when cycling.
•
Do not wear loose clothing with which you
could get caught or which could get entang-
led in the bike.
•
Bind both trouser legs tightly to your body at
all times. You may need to use trouser clips.
•
Wear proper shoes for cycling. Your shoes
must have stiff, non-slip soles.
•
Never cycle with no hands.
•
Look and think ahead when cycling and fa-
miliarize yourself with the brake performance
when you cycle for the first time by cycling
somewhere which is safe and has no traffic.
•
Only one person at a time is allowed to cycle
on the electric bike.
•
Do not carry any loose, unsecured objects
with you.
•
Always remember to swing the stand up befo-
re you start cycling.
•
Check that all the quick-release fasteners are
fitted securely and tightly every time before
you start cycling and whenever your electric
bike has been left anywhere unattended,
even for just a short time!
•
Check that all screw connections and compo-
nents are secure at regular intervals.
•
Your responsibility as the owner of the vehicle

GB
includes responsibility for the actions and
safety of any minors who use it – and also
responsibility for the technical condition of the
electric bike and the adjustment of the bike to
each user.
•
You therefore need to ensure that any minors
who use the electric bike have learned how to
use it safely and responsibly – ideally within
the area in which they will be cycling on the
electric bike.
•
Minors are only permitted to cycle on the
electric bike if they have reached the stipula-
ted age and are in possession of the requisite
driving permit.
Important preparations for cycling on your
electric bike
To get to know your electric bike better, it is impe-
rative that you read these original operating inst-
ructions carefully. For safe operation, please read
through the complete instructions.
These instructions require that you and all users
of the electric bike have a basic knowledge of
how to use bikes and electric bikes. In case of
any uncertainty and for all workshop work on your
electric bike, please contact your dealer.
All persons who use, clean, maintain, repair and
dispose of the electric bike must be familiar with
and understand the contents of these instructions.
Any disregard for the information provided could
have serious consequences for your own safety.
Disregarding the information could therefore
lead to serious accidents and falls, for example,
which could also result in fi nancial losses as
well. In addition to the specifi c information and
instructions for your electric bike, you also have
to inform yourself about about all the rules and
regulations that apply on the public highway –
these can vary from country to country (lighting
and refl ectors).
