Gazelle Innergy Plus 2015 Bedienungsanleitung Seite 63

6. Frequently asked questions
How fast can I go with this bike?
That's up to you. However, electric assistance is no longer
provided at speeds above 25 km/h. This is a legal requirement
for bikes with motor assistance.
How do I switch the bike off?
The best way to switch the bike off is by using the on/off
button on the display. Press this button to switch off all the
bike functions. If you park your bike but don't switch it off,
the system will auto-matically switch off after 5 minutes and
the battery will switch itself to standby after an hour.
After switching it off, you may remove the battery for
charging if required.
Does the Innergy system make the bike very heavy?
Not very much, though of course the battery and motor do
add some extra weight. The lightweight motor weighs around
3.0 kg and the removable battery 2.5 kg. In total therefore, you
need to add only 5.5 kg to the weight of the "standard bike".
The bikes can therefore easily be transported on a standard
bike carrier on the back of your car.
NB: The Gold battery (3.4 kg) is slightly heavier than the
Bronze and Silver batteries (2.5 kg)!
Can I start off just like on a normal bike?
Yes, in principle. The bike has been programmed so that the
assistance at a speed of 0 – 5 km/h reacts less quickly and is
less strong.
Can I keep my foot on the pedal when standing still
(at traffic lights, for example)?
That's no problem, because your bike has a rotation sensor.
Your pedals need to rotate before the motor gives assistance,
and that doesn't happen when you simply have your foot on
the pedal.
Can I also use my Innergy in the rain?
Yes, the Innergy parts are all splash-proof and will always work
in rainy weather. However, the system must not be submerged
in any liquid or cleaned with a high pressure cleaner. So never
spray your bike clean with a high pressure cleaner!
