About these operating instructions
1.8 Aim of the operating instructions
These operating instructions are not a substitute
for personal instruction by the specialist dealer
supplying the bike. These operating instructions
are an integral part of the pedelec. Therefore, if it
is re-sold at a later time, they must be handed
over to the subsequent owner.
These operating instructions are mainly designed
for riders and operators of the pedelec.
Paragraphs with a white background are intended
to enable non-professionals to make safe settings
on the pedelec, use it, clean it and identify and
eliminate any faults.
Sections intended for technical staff are
highlighted in blue and marked with a spanner
symbol.
These paragraphs aim to allow trained technical
staff (bicycle mechatronics engineers, bicycle
mechanics or similar) to carry out initial
assembly, adjustment, maintenance and repair
safely.
Technical staff also need to read all sections for
riders and operators to ensure they can provide
a better customer service.
All documents in Section 11 need to be filled out
whenever any work is performed on the vehicle
(assembly report, maintenance report).

Description
3 Description
3.1 Proper use
All check lists and instructions for actions in these
operating instructions must be met. Approved
accessories can be installed by specialist staff.
Use the pedelec when it is in perfect, proper
working order only. National requirements may
apply to the pedelec which the standard
equipment may not meet. Different regulations
apply across the country to the riding light,
reflectors and other components when riding on
public roads. The general laws and the
regulations for the prevention of accidents and
environmental protection in the respective country
of use must be adhered to.
The rechargeable batteries are designed to
supply power to the pedelec motor only. Never
use the batteries for other purposes.
Each pedelec is assigned a pedelec type, which
determines its proper use, function and area of
use.
City and trekking
bicycles
Child's bicycles/
bicycles for young
adults
Mountain bikes Racing bicycle Cargo bike Folding bicycle
City and trekking
bicycles are designed
for comfortable, daily
use and are suitable
for riding on public
roads.
Cycles for children
and young adults are
suitable for riding on
public roads.
Legal guardians must
read the operating
instructions before
putting the bike into
use. Tell children and
young people what
the operating
instructions contain
in a way appropriate
to their age.
Check the size of the
pedelec every 3
months for ortho-
paedic reasons.
Check compliance
with the maximum
permitted total weight
(PTW) every 3
months.
Mountain bikes are
designed for sports
use. The design char-
acteristics include a
short wheelbase, a
sitting position with
the rider inclined
towards the front, and
a brake requiring low
actuation force.
Mountain bikes are
sports bikes and not a
means of transport.
They require an
adaptation period in
addition to physical
fitness. Learning how
to ride a mountain
bike takes practice,
especially braking
and riding around
bends.
The strain on hands,
wrists, arms, shoul-
ders, the neck and
back is considerable.
Inexperienced riders
tend to brake too hard
and lose control as a
result.
Racing bikes are
designed for fast
rides on roads and
paths with a good,
undamaged road
surface.
Racing bikes are
sports bikes and not a
means of transport.
Racing bikes are
characterised by their
lightweight structure
and a design which is
stripped to the
minimum parts
required for riding.
The frame geometry
and the layout of the
operating elements
are designed to allow
the bike to be ridden
at high speeds.
Learning how to ride
slowly, apply the
brakes and get on
and off the bike safely
takes practice due to
the frame design.
The sitting position is
athletic. The physical
strain on hands,
wrists, arms, shoul-
ders, the neck and
back is considerable.
The sitting position
requires a high level
of physical fitness.
Cargo bikes are suit-
able for transporting
loads on public roads
on a daily basis.
The transportation of
loads requires skill
and physical fitness
in order to balance
the additional weight.
The very varied
loading conditions
and weight distribu-
tions require special
practice and skill
when braking and
riding in bends.
A longer period is
required to adaptation
to the length, width
and turning circle.
You need to be
cautious when riding
a cargo bike. You
must pay attention to
traffic on public roads
and the condition of
the route.
Folding bicycles are
suitable for riding on
public roads.
Folding bikes can be
folded together and
thus save space
when they are trans-
ported, e.g. in cars or
on local transport.
The folding function
of the folding bicycle
makes it necessary to
use smaller wheels
and longer brake
cables and Bowden
cables. Therefore, in
case of an increased
load, a reduction in
riding stability and
braking power, dimin-
ished comfort and
reduced durability are
to be expected.
