1 About these instructions
Read these operating instructions before
commissioning the vehicle to ensure you use all the
functions correctly and safely. They are not a
substitute for personal training by the supplying
specialist dealer. The operating instructions are an
integral part of the vehicle. Therefore, if it is re-sold at
a later time, they must be handed over to the
subsequent owner.
These operating instructions are mainly intended for
the vehicle rider and operator, who tend to be non-
professionals.
Staff at all specialist dealers have specialist training
and qualifications, and are therefore capable of
identifying risks and preventing hazards which may
arise during maintenance, servicing and repairs on the
vehicle. Information for specialist staff does not
require non-professionals to take any action.
1.1 Manufacturer

ZEG Zweirad-Einkaufs-Genossenschaft eG
Longericher Straße 2
50739 Köln, Germany
Tel.: [phone]

1.4 For your safety
The vehicle's safety concept comprises four elements:
• rider and/or operator instruction and vehicle
maintenance and repair by the specialist dealer,
• the chapter on general safety,
• the warnings in these instructions and
• the safety marking on the type plates.
1.4.1 Instruction, training and customer service
The supplying specialist dealer will provide customer
service. Contact details can be found on the back page
of these operating instructions and in the data sheet. If
you are unable to contact your specialist dealer, you
will find other specialist dealers online at www.zeg.de.
The rider or the operator of the vehicle will be
instructed in person on the vehicle functions when the
supplying specialist dealer hands over the vehicle, if
not before. This instruction particularly covers the
vehicle's electrical functions and correct use of the
charger.
Each rider to whom this vehicle is provided must
receive instruction on the vehicle's functions. The
operating instructions must be submitted to each rider
in printed form and must be acknowledged and
adhered to.
The specialist dealer authorised to perform repairs and
maintenance work receives regular training.
