Pedelec stands for Pedal Electric Cycling.
It designates a bike with electric assisted pedalling
having the following characteristics:
- Pedelecs combine a bike with an electric motor,
a rechargeable battery, control electronics, and
sensors for recognising crank movements.
- Pedelecs are considered as bikes and may be
used without driving licence and without auto-
mobile liability insurance.
- A helmet is not required but we do recommend
wearing a bicycle helmet.
- All pedelecs sold in the EU must comply with the
directive DIN EN 15194.
- While pedalling pedelecs are assisted by a motor
from 0 to 25 km/h.
We recommend that you carefully read this user
manual to quickly familiarise yourself with your
ergo_bike pedelec. Competent handling and regular
care and maintenance of the ergo_bike pedelec help
preserve its value.
Also for safety reasons take into consideration the

WARNING
Please note that the saddle may be pulled
up at most to the marking (2) on the saddle tube.
- Loosen the saddle clamp (1) by means of an
Allen wrench SW4, adjust the saddle height and
retighten the screw.
Adjust the height of the saddle and handlebar to
adapt them to your body size in order to allow for a
comfortable, non tiring, and safe driving.
Sit on the saddle, put one pedal in the lowest position
and place your heel on the pedal. The saddle height
should be set so that your leg is almost straight in
the lowest pedal position.
The handlebar setting is correct when the handlebar
stem (1) is at the same level (3), or a little higher as
the upper edge (2) of the saddle.

Important safety notes for the battery charger
Please read these safety notes before you start
using the battery charger.
WARNING
Keep the charger out of reach of children. To
prevent risks of injury you should only recharge
daumelectronic Lithium-Ion (Li-Ion)rechargeable
batteries. Other battery types may explode when
recharged.This cancause injuries topersons and
material damages.
Using accessories or rechargeable batteries that
we do not sell or recommend, introduces risks of
re, electrical shocks or injuries.
In any case avoid using the device in humid or
wet environment.
Avoid absolutely water infiltrations in the
device. If liquid inltration does occur: imme-
diately disconnect the charger from the power
supply and take it to your daum electronic dealer
for testing.
Please provide for a safe stand for the device on
a at level surface.
When not in use disconnect the power supply.
Do not pull on the cable to avoid damaging
the cable and prevent the risks of an electrical
shock.
After use, make sure that the power cable is
properly rolled up or fold up.
Do not use the charger with a damaged cable or
power plug. Have it immediately replaced by a
qualied technician.
Do not use the charger after it received a
strong shock, was dropped or anyhow damaged.
Do never disassemble the charger yourself. A
faulty assembly can lead to electrical shocks or
re hazards.
To prevent electrical shocks, disconnect the
charger from power supply before cleaning it.
Clean the device only with a dry cloth. Do
never use oil, water or solvents.
An extension cable should only be used
if absolutely necessary. Using an extension
cable that is not in perfect condition can lead to
re hazards or electrical shocks. If an extension
cable is used, you must make sure that:
- the pins of the cable power plug correspond
to those of the charger exactly in number, size
and shape,
- the extension cable is correctly wired and in
good electrical state,
- the cable section is large enough to support
the AC current load of the charger,
- the extension cable does not present any
visible damage,
- the drum is completely unwound when using
cable drums.

Important safety hints for the rechargeable battery
- Protect the rechargeable battery against shocks
and humidity.
- Before you plug the charger into a power outlet
please verify that the voltage supplied corre-
sponds to the voltage specied on the nameplate
of the charger.
- Rechargeable batteries will achieve their maxi-
mal usable life when recharged in an ambient
temperature of +10°C to a max. of +30°C.
- The rechargeable battery will get warm when
used heavily. Please wait for the rechargeable
battery to cool down to room temperature, or
about 30 minutes, before starting the recharging
process.
WARNING
-Keep the rechargeable battery out of reach
of children.
- Do not open or disassemble the rechargeable
battery yourself.
- Do not short-circuit the rechargeable battery
with metal objects.
- Do not immerse the rechargeable battery in
any liquid.
- A not usable rechargeable battery may not in
any case be incinerated or put to re! There
is risk of explosion!
CORROSION RISK
- Stop using the rechargeable battery in
the presence of leaks or loss of electrolyte.
FIRST AID
Rinse acid sprays in the eyes immediately with
clear water for a few minutes! Then consult a physi-
cian without delay.
Neutralize acid splash on skin or clothes immedi-
ately with acid neutralizer (soda) or soap suds and
rinse with plenty of water.
If acid is swallowed, consult a physician immediately.
NOTE
Used rechargeable batteries are subject to waste
disposal regulations. Rechargeable batteries con-
tain heavy metals and are therefore subject to toxic
(hazardous) waste control.
Your daum electronic dealer will take care of
battery disposal for you.
Before starting operating, we strongly recommend
you read the following important notes and comply
with them:
- A new ergo_bike pedelec rechargeable battery
is charged to about 80% capacity.
- The rechargeable battery develops its maxi-
mum capacity after about five discharge/
recharge cycles.
WARNING
- The rechargeable batteries of the ergo_bike
pedelec and the provided charger are tuned
to each other. Therefore you should always
recharge the battery with a charger of the
same model series.

Handling the rechargeable battery and the charger
ATTENTION
Ignoring the following directives can lead to a
deep discharge of the rechargeable battery.
A deep discharge of the rechargeable battery
voids the warranty.
In order to achieve the longest possible service
life of the rechargeable battery you should
follow the following directives:
- The charger will not operate when the tem-
perature of the rechargeable battery is below
0°C and higher than +60°C. Therefore you
should bring the rechargeable battery to
about room temperature before starting the
charging process.
- If the pedelec will be exposed to low tempera-
turesat itsstorage location,we recommendto
remove the rechargeable battery and store it
at room temperature.
- If the rechargeable battery is kept turned off
or removed for an extended period of time,
then it is expected that you will need to set
the date and time again!
- Recharge the battery at the soonest oppor-
tunity after use, regardless of the amount of
discharged energy.
- After the charging process is complete, the
rechargeable battery must be disconnected
from the charger, and it maynot be left con-
nected to a switched off charger (self dis-
charge).
- When not used for a prolonged period, the re-
chargeable battery may not be left connected
to the charger.
- When storing the bike (e.g. in winter) the
rechargeable battery must be stored fully
charged in a dry room at room temperature.
- Recharge every 3 months.
NOTE
About self discharge
The rechargeable battery will self discharge mainly
through chemical processes occurring in the gas-
tight cells. The discharge rate depends on the time,
charging level and environmental conditions (tem-
perature, air humidity).
This results in a correspondingly shorter range with
electric drive.
