• When brakes are applied, thebrake pads wear against
thewheel, which means that thewheel rims and brake
surfaces become worn overtime. Therate of wear
and tear depends on several factors,e.g. theway
in which thebrakes are used, road conditions, how
often thebrake blocks are replaced, and how often
thebrake blocks and wheels are cleaned. Thesides of
thewheel rim can eventually become so thin that they
collapse, which can result in serious personal injury
and material damage. Checkthewheels regularly, and
replace wheels that show signs ofwear.
• Brakes and braking components can become veryhot.
Donot touch them during, or shortly after,use.
• Anopen, unplugged end on thehandlebar could cause
injury in theevent of anaccident. Checkthat theends
of thehandlebars are covered by thehandgrips or with
handlebarplugs.
• There may be sharp points on theteeth of thecogs
and sprockets.
• Thepedals may have sharp edges and serrations.
• Moving parts can cause cutting and crushing injuries,
even resulting in thebreaking ofbones.
• Clamps and other parts may cause crushing injuries.
• If you cycle in conditions with poor visibility (such as in
fog, twilight or at night), others many find it difficult to
see you, and therisk of anaccident increases. Always
use lights (front and rear) when cycling in poorly lit
conditions where visibility islow.
• You expose yourself to increased risk if you use
thebicycle in away that is not recommended,e.g. ifyou:
- Perform jumps with thebicycle.
- Cycle over tree roots and branches, stones, or
other similar objects.
- Cycle on challenging terrain.
- Cycle in anunusual manner.
• Anexcessive load can cause theframe or other parts
to break, thus increasing therisk of injury. Minimise
therisk of injury and damage by using thebicycle in
thecorrect manner.
Important:
• Tighten all nuts, bolts and screws but do not overtighten.
Useatorque spanner to ensure thecorrect level of
torque (where such levels are stated).
• Adjust thebicycle so that it fits you and your bodytype.
• Always conduct asafety check beforeusing.
• Always use aproperly adjusted and fitted helmet.
• Always keep both hands on thehandlebars.
• Wear clothing that makes you visible to your fellow
roadusers.
• Thebicycle must be equipped with wheel reflectors
(both front and rear) and pedal reflectors. Makesure
that all reflectors are clean and visible.

General safety instructions for
bicycles
Warning:
• Thebicycle is designed to be ridden on normal roads
and not for terrain or competitiveuse. Anyform of use
other than that described in this instruction manual
can lead to aserious risk for personal injury or material
damage.
• Never brake hard using thecoaster brake in slippery
conditions,e.g. on gravel, ice, snow or wet tarmac.
• It may become difficult to control thebicycle in wet or
windy weather conditions. Reduce your speed and
exercise greater caution, or use analternative form of
transport.
• Always brake using therear brakes first before
attempting to use thefront brakes. Thisespecially
applies if road surfaces are slippery.
• For steep hills several braking methods should be
combined, otherwise using thecoaster brake may
cause therear wheel to overheat.
• As with all mechanical components, thebicycle
is subject to wear and high stressloads. Different
materials and components may react to wear or
stress fatigue in differentways. Allcomponents have
acertain lifespan and if thelife of acomponent has
been exceeded, it may suddenly fail causing possible
injury to theuser. Anyforms of cracks, scratches or
changes of colouring in highly stressed areas indicate
that thelife of thecomponent has been reached and it
should be replaced.

• When riding in darkness, ensure that you have properly
functioning lights, both front andrear.
• Remember that rules and regulations for bicycles
will differ from country to country. Thismay include
regulations regarding front, rear and side reflectors,
along with front and rear lights. Itis your responsibility
to familiarise yourself with therules and regulations that
apply in your country.
• Always ride in thesame direction as trafficflow.
Neverride against traffic.
• Always follow thelocal traffic regulations.
• Show consideration in traffic. Don’t ride close to
pedestrians, horse riders or thedisabled.
• Never use loose fitting clothing or similar apparel that
can get caught in thebicycle chain or wheels.
• Changes to thebicycle or its components can make
it unsafe touse. Eachof thebicycle’s parts and
components has been carefully chosen and tested.
Thesafety aspect of safety-critical components,
accessories and spare parts is not always obvious.
Therefore, use only original or compatible parts when
making repairs or when fitting accessories.
• Special tools and specialist knowledge make it easier
to assemble thebicycle and to make theinitial settings.
Ifyou are at all unsure, this should be performed by
somebody with theappropriate competence.
• Incorrectly performed mechanical work can make
thebicycle unsafe touse. Something as simple as
tightening ascrew or bolt to theincorrect level of
torque may result in some part of thebicycle breaking,
causing you to lose control of thebicycle and have
anaccident.
• We recommend that all servicing, repairs and fitting
of accessories are performed by aperson with
therequisite competence and experience. Yoursafety
depends on thecorrect performance of maintenance.
• Any tampering or modification of the electrical system,
frame, forks or other components can make the
bicycle dangerous to use.
• Acomponent that is not adapted for thebicycle, or
that has been incorrectly fitted, can subject thebicycle
to major stress with theresulting risk of personal injury
or material damage.
• Before you fit any accessories onto thebicycle, or
make changes to any part, it is your responsibility to
ensure that thechange you intend to make is both
compatible andsafe.
• Achild’s seat changes thebicycle’s centre of gravity,
which can make it difficult to manoeuvre.
• If a child seat is used, make sure that the maximum
total weight limit of the bicycle is not exceeded.
• If theposition of thesaddle has not been correctly
adjusted to suit you, or if thesaddle does not suit
your body type, you risk causing damage to your
nerves and blood vessels. Adjust theposition of
your saddle if you experience pain or discomfort.

Braking system (M, Q, T and Y)
• Thebrakes are used to reduce thespeed of thebicycle
and to bring it to ahalt, which is of critical importance
for safety.
• To ensure maximum safety, your electric bicycle is fitted
with three braking systems.
- Foot/coaster brake on therearwheel
- Hand/rim brake on thefrontwheel
- Hand/rim brake on therearwheel
Foot/coaster brake on the rear wheel
• Thefoot braking system applies abrake to
therearwheel.
• Thebraking mechanism is located inside thehub of
therearwheel.
• Thebrake is activated by thechain when thepedals/
crank arms are pedalled backwards.
Hand/rim brake on the front wheel (T)
and rear wheel (Y)
• Thehand/rim braking system consists of afront brake
(T) and arear brake (Y).
• Thefront brake is mounted on thefront fork, and

Settings and adjustments
Warning:
Remember to take ashort test ride every time you change
any of thesettings.
Important:
• You should not attempt to change any settings
or make any adjustments that require specialist
knowledge or specialisttools.
• You will be able to change/make most of thesettings/
adjustments yourself, requiring only alimited range oftools.
Suitable tools
• Hex (Allen) key 5, 6 and 3mm.
• Spanner (open-ended or ring) 15 mm
• Pedal (or open-ended) spanner 15mm
• Torque wrench
• Screwdriver
• Tyre levers
• Bicyclepump
Tightening of screws and nuts
Important:
• It is important that screws and nuts are tightened
to thecorrect tension to prevent personal injury or
material damage.
• If ascrew or nut is to be tightened to aparticular
torque (Nm), this is specified in theinstructions.
Useatorque wrench in order to achieve thecorrect
tightening torque.
• If no torque is specified in theinstructions, thescrew
or nut must be tightened so that it is securelyfixed.
Asageneral rule, thelarger thescrew/nut, themore
force should be used when tightening. Becareful,
however, to not overtighten.

Basic settings for the electrical
system
Theelectrical system has three basic settings, which can
be adjusted according to personal preference.
Torque of the motor
• In addition to thethree speed/assistance modes, it is
also possible to adjust thetorque of theelectric motor
in small increments, from thelowest torque (-15) to
thehighest (+15).
• Thehigher thetorque, themore efficiently thepower
is transferred from themotor, which means that
themotorised assistance feels stronger.
Important:
Ahigh level of torque can be particularly advantageous
when accelerating from low speed or when cycling uphill,
but it can be adisadvantage when cycling on slippery road
surfaces or if you prefer alower level of intervention from
themotorised assistance.
Brightness of the display
Adjust thebrightness of thedisplay in small increments
from thelowest (-15) to thebrightest (+15).
Sensitivity of the automatic lighting
• Alight sensor is fitted at thetop-left of thedisplayunit.
• Adjust thesensitivity of this sensor from thelowest
sensitivity (-15) to thehighest (+15).

4. Check that themarking for minimum insertion of
theseat post is not visible above theseat postclamp.
5. Tighten thescrew.
Saddle position
Thelongitudinal position of thesaddle is determined by
thelength of yourlegs.
1. Rotate thecrankset so that both pedals are at
thesame height.
2. Sit comfortably on thesaddle and place your foot on
thefrontpedal. Thejoint of your toe should be directly
above thespindle of thepedal.
3. Check that your kneecap is vertically aligned with
thepedal spindle/toejoint.
- If your kneecap is behind this vertical line, you must
move thesaddle forwards.
- If your kneecap is in front of this vertical line, you
must move thesaddle backwards.
Thepositioning of theangle of thesaddle is amatter of
personal preference and taste, but most find it best when
thetop edge of thesaddle is horizontal.
Adjusting the saddle position
1. Turn thesaddle clamp
(L5) socket head
screw (6 mm) anti-
clockwise 3–4turns.

lift thebicycle so that thefront wheel (U) leaves
theground.
2. Turn thehandlebars from side to side with your
otherhand.
- If this movement feels heavy and you experience
obvious resistance, theheadset bearings (N1 and
N2) are either faulty or have been overtightened,
which must be corrected.
- If theside-to-side movement is easy and does not
involve any resistance, return thefront wheel to
theground and proceed to step 3.
3. Cup one hand around theprotective cap of thebearing

5. Set theyellow dot on thelocking ring against theleft-
hand yellow dot on thegear switch. Turnthelocking
ring clockwise as far as it willgo.
Important:
Thegear switch’s position on thewheel axle is very
precise, so theslightest movement between theyellow
markings will prevent thecorrect positioning of thegear
switch. Itwill normally be very easy for thelocking
ring to be put intoplace. Ifit is not, this indicates that
thegear switch’s position needs to be corrected.

7. Inflate thetyre, and then let theair outagain.
8. Squeeze both sides of thetyre together where it
meets thewheel rim, and continue around theentire
circumference of thewheel.
Note: Steps 7 and 8 are important in order to
prevent thetube from being pinched between therim
and theedge of thetyre.
9. Inflate thetyre to therecommended pressure, which is
stated on theside of thetyre. Forthebicycle’s original
tyres, thepressure is 3.5–6.0bar (50–85PSI).
Foot/coaster brake
For thefoot brake to function properly, it is important
that thechain has thecorrect tension. Therefore,
regularly check thetension of thechain (see Drivetrain in

direction.
2. Move thelevers
inwards or
outwards along
thehandlebars,
and/or move
thelevers to
therequiredangle.
Brake levers
Theposition of thebrake levers on thehandlebars can
be adjusted. Itis also possible to adjust thedistance of
theactual brake lever from thehandlebars/handgrip to suit
thesize of yourhands. Smallhands will require ashorter
distance.
4. Turn thesocket head screw (M/Q4):
- in aclockwise direction to reduce thedistance
between thebrake lever and thehandlebars.
- in ananti-clockwise direction to increase
thedistance to thehandlebars (thebicycle is
first delivered with this screw unscrewed to
themaximum amount, and with thegreatest
possible distance between thelever and
thehandlebars).
5. Check thedistance between thebrake pads and
therim, as well as thedistance between thebrake
lever and thehandlebars (see Brakes/Tension of
thebrake cable in theSettings and adjustments
section).
• Thebraking surface of thebrake pads must be parallel
to thewheelrim. Thereshould be adistance of at least
1mm between thetop edge of thebrake pad and
thetyre, and at least 1mm between thebottom edge
of thebrake pad and thebottom edge of therim.
• If any of thebrake pads is not positioned as described,
this must be adjusted. Forbest results, adjust
thebrake pads inpairs.
1. Undo thebrake
pad set screws
(T/Y3) by turning
them once or
twice in ananti-
clockwise direction
with a5mm
hexkey. Itwill
now be possible
to realign and to
move thebrake
pads upwards/
downwards.
2. Lightly press thebrake pads against thewheel rims by
squeezing thebrakelever.
3. Move thebrake pads into thecorrect position while
maintaining light pressure with thebrakelever.
4. Pull thebrake lever with full force and tighten thebrake
pad set screws.
5. Release thebrake lever and hold thebrake pads in
place, one by one, with yourhand. Tighten thescrews
for thebrakepads.
Tension of the brake cable
Thedistance between thebrake pads and therim must be
1–2mm. Ifthedistanceis:
• greater than 2mm, you must tighten thebrakecable

For minor adjustments, you can turn thebrake lever
adjustment screw (M/Q1) for cable tension. The brake arm spring tension
• Thebrake arms are spring-loaded, which means that
they are pushed outwards away from therim when
thebrake lever is not pulled.
• Thetension of thespring-loading must be thesame
for both brake arms in order to ensure that thebraking
force and thedistance between thebrake pads and
therims is equal on bothsides.
• Thebraking system works most effectively when
theforce of thebrake arms’ spring-loading is as low as
possible while also being fully adequate for thebrake
arms to spring outwards, without obstruction, when
you release thebrakelever.
1. Turn thelocking ring (M/Q3) against
theadjustmentscrew.
- Turn theadjustment screw (together with
thelocking ring) outwards/anti-clockwise to
increase thecable tension. Thedistance between
thebrake pads and wheel rims becomes smaller.
Thebrake lever moves away from thehandlebars.
- Turn theadjustment screw inwards/clockwise to
decrease thecable tension. Thedistance between
thebrake pads and wheel rims becomes greater.
Thebrake lever moves closer to thehandlebars.
2. Finally, tighten thelocking ring against thebrake lever
in order to fix theposition of theadjustmentscrew.
If greater adjustments are required (which cannot be
achieved using theadjustment screw), you must adjust
theposition of thebrake cable (T/Y9) on thebrakearm.
1. Hold theend of
thecable while you
loosen thesocket
head screw (T/Y10)
(5mm).
2. Pull thecable out
from thebrake
arm to tighten
thecable, or push
in theopposite
direction to
loosen thecable.
Thedistance
between thecable’s
attachment to
thebrake arm and
thelink on theother
brake arm must be
50–65mm.
3. Tighten thescrew.
4. Finely-tune this adjustment as necessary, in
accordance with step1.
• Thetension of
thespring is adjusted
using ascrew next to
thebrake arm pivot
point (T/Y2).
1. Test thebrakes repeatedly while observing both
themovement of thebrake arms and thedistance
between thebrake pads and therims. Testwhether it
requires much or little force to pull thebrakelever.
2. If thebrake arms
move unevenly, or if
thebrake pads are
at unequal distances
from therim, turn
theadjusting screw
(in ananti-clockwise
direction) on thebrake
arm that either moves
themost or whose
brake pad is furthest
from therim.
3. If adjusting thescrew in
accordance with step2
does not result in any
change, you should turn
theadjusting screw (in
aclockwise direction) on
thebrake arm that moves
theleast or whose brake
pad is closest to therim.
Testthebrakes repeatedly
while turning thescrew
in order to see thedirect
results of theadjustment.
4. If thebrake arms move evenly but you think that
thebrake lever is stiff and hard to pull, try turning
theadjustment screws on both brake arms in ananti-
clockwise direction.
Note:
• Adjust thescrews evenly on both sides until
theresistance of thebrake lever decreases.
• Make sure that you do not loosen thescrews so much
that they falloff. Ifyou reduce thetension too much,
thebrake arms will not spring outwards. Ifthis happens,
turn theadjustment screws in aclockwise direction.

Chain tension
Important:
In order to function effectively, thechain must have acertain
tension/length. Withuse and wear, thechain begins to
stretch, so thechain tension must be checked regularly.
1. Remove thechain guard (see Chain guard in

• The bicycle is equipped with a full-cover chain guard
which not only protects your trouser legs from contact
with the chain but also protects the chain, chainrings
and sprockets from dirt, grime and water.
• In order to perform certain settings, maintenance and
repairs, some parts of the chain guard will need to be
removed.
• The chain guard consists of an outer cover and an
inner cover for the chain and chainring plus a rear
cover for the rear sprocket.
1. Remove the screw from the lower half of the rear cover
and pull the cover backwards.
Important: Make sure that the right-hand crank
arm is horizontal and that the pedal is closest to
thefront wheel, otherwise there is a risk of damaging
theouter cover when it is being removed.
2. Carefully bend and detach the outer cover from
theinner cover, beginning at the rear. Remove
theouter cover.
3. Refit the outer cover in the reverse order.
- First join the top edges of the covers together.
- Match up the bottom edges.
- Follow the join around the whole edge and click
thetwo covers together.
