About these instructions
1 About these instructions
Read these operating instructions before
commissioning the bicycle to ensure you use all the
functions correctly and safely. The operating
instructions are not a substitute for personal
instruction by the supplying specialist dealer. The
operating instructions are a component part of the
bicycle. 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 rider and operator of the bicycle, 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
bicycle. Information for specialist staff does not require
non-professionals to take any action.

50739 Köln, Germany

Fax: [phone]

2 Safety
2.1 Requirements for the rider
If there are no legal requirements for riders of
electrically power-assisted cycles, we recommend that
the rider should be a minimum 14 years of age and
have experience with muscle-powered bicycles.
The rider's physical and mental abilities must be
adequate to use a muscle-powered bicycle.
2.2 Hazards for vulnerable groups
The battery and charger must be kept out of the reach
of children.
If the bicycle is used by minors, comprehensive
instruction should be provided by or in the presence of
the legal guardians. Supervised use should also be
scheduled until it is certain that the bicycle is being
used as per these operating instructions. Legal
guardians hold sole responsibility for determining
whether minors are capable of using the bicycle.
2.3 Personal protective equipment
We recommend that you wear a suitable cycling
helmet. We also recommend that you wear typical,
long, close-fitting cycling clothing and sturdy footwear.
