3 SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
Please read all safety instructions carefully. Failure to comply with the warnings or to take residual risks into ac-
count may result in electric shock, fire and/or serious injury.
Keep the operating instructions in a safe place and have them readily available to consult. Pass these instructions
on if you provide your e-bike for someone else’s use.
When used in these operating instructions, the word “battery” refers to all original FIT e-bike batteries.
3.2 DRIVE UNITS
Do not make any changes that affect the power or the maximum speed that the drive supports, especially to increase
it. You may endanger yourself and others and you may be using your e-bike illegally in public spaces.
Do not open up the drive unit yourself. Only qualified technical staff may repair the drive unit and only with original
spare parts. This ensures that the drive unit remains safe. Unauthorised opening of the drive unit will void the war-
ranty.
All components fitted to the drive unit and all other e-bike drive components may only be replaced with components
of an identical design or ones specifically approved by your e-bike’s manufacturer. This protects the drive unit from
overloading and damage.
When the push assist system is switched on, the pedals may possibly turn as well. When the push assist system is
activated, make sure that you are at a sufficient distance from the rotating pedals. There is a risk of injury.
The brakes and the motor may become very hot during operation. There is a risk of burns or fire in case of contact.
Never touch the brakes or the motor directly after a ride. Never place the e-bike on a flammable surface, such as
grass or wood, or near flammable objects directly after use.
3.3 WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY
3.3.1 DANGEROUS SITUATION IN ROAD TRAFFIC
If you encounter any hazards or dangers in road traffic, apply the brake until the e-bike comes to a halt. The brake
acts as an emergency stop system in such cases.

only active up to the maximum speed for which
the e-bike is approved.
Is the battery charged sufficiently? 2. Check battery is charged.

The motor may become too hot
during rides at high temperatures,
up long inclines or when carrying a
heavy load for a long time.

The rechargeable battery, display
or operating element may be
connected incorrectly, or one or

INSTRUCTION MANUAL BROSE S MAG FIT
Symptom Cause Remedy
The assisted
journey distance
is too short.
The battery does not perform as
well in winter weather.
This does not indicate a problem.
The journey distance can be
shorter depending on the road
conditions, the level of assistance
and the total light usage time.

Is the battery fully charged? 3. If the distance covered with a fully charged
battery has become shorter, the battery may be
affected. Replace the battery with a new one.
The battery is a consumable.
Repeated charging and long
periods of use cause the battery to
degrade (loss of power).
4. If the distance you can cover with one single
charge is very short, replace the battery with a
new one.
It is difficult to
pedal.
Are the tyres pumped to an
adequate pressure?

OFF?
2. Set the level of assistance to HIGH,STD,ECO or
