Before first use
•Read the operating and installation instructions carefully before using the
eBike. They contain important information on safety, installation, use and
maintenance. This prevents both personal injury and damage to the
eBike.
•Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any future
owner.
•Damage to the eBike can compromise your safety. Check the eBike for
visible signs of damage. Do not use a damaged eBike.
•If you find any visible sign of damage, please contact the store where you
bought the eBike.
•Check that the eBike has been properly assembled.
•This eBike can be used by children and people with impaired physical,
sensory or mental abilities or with a lack of experience and knowledge
provided that they are supervised or have received instruction in the safe
use of this device, and about the resulting hazards. Children must not

•Cleaning and user maintenance work must not be carried out by children
without adult supervision.
•Keep the charger out of infants and children's reach. Do not play with the
eBike.
•Only use Lithium rechargeable batteries. DO NOT use this charger for any
other types of batteries than listed here. Improper use of the charger or
attempt to charge non-rechargeable batteries can cause fire, electric
shock and/or other hazards.
•The charger is for indoor use only and requires adequate ventilation
(ventilation openings must never be covered or blocked); and the charger
should always be connected to a grounded outlet.

•Do not attempt to disassemble or modify this device. Maintenance
and/or repair work must be carried out by professionals only. If the
safety warnings are not followed, warranty, performance and product
liability claims will be invalidated.
•Only use the AC power cord supplied with the charger or recommended
by the supplier.
•If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer,
its service agent or a professionally qualified person to avoid danger.
•Remove the charger from the power supply before connecting /
disconnecting the battery. Risk of electric shock.
•A short circuit between the charger's plus (+) and minus (-) may cause
fire, electric shock and/or other hazards. Make sure the plug is kept away
from all metal when the battery is not connected.
•If/when the metal part of the charger becomes dirty, pull the charger out
of the socket and clean with a dry cloth only. Risk of electric shock.
•The charger gets warm during charging. This is normal and not a defect.
•Stop charging immediately if charging does not occur within a reasonable
time.
•If abnormal odors or deformity of the charger occurs during use,
immediately turn off the power and unplug the power cord to avoid
possible danger or risk of fire.
•Please keep the charger cool and dry when not in use.
•Do not expose the charger to direct sunlight and/or other heat sources
(e.g. radiators and/or other electrical appliances, chimneys, etc.),
moisture, water, flames, fire or high-explosive gas; or in places where
liquids (e.g. condensation and water from leaky ceilings) or objects which
can enter into the product.
•Please do not dispose of your old appliance with your household waste.
Please dispose of it at your local recycling center.
•Ride slowly on rainy, snowy and/or icy roads. Calculate good braking
distance on icy roads.
•The eBike is intended for driving in the rain and is not damaged by it. But
never immerse the electronic parts (motor, battery) in water and/or
other liquids.
•Never lend your eBike without prior thorough instruction in its use.
•Important! Turn off the battery during charging and after use.

6
•Important! Charge the eBike at least once a month, even when not used
for long periods. This protects the battery and extends its life.
•Never touch the battery contact points with wet hands and never
attempt to short-circuit the battery using tools. Risk of personal and/or
product damages.
•Batteries are affected by different weather conditions. Generally, a
battery performs best when used at temperatures above 0 °C. The
battery capacity is reduced by approx. 1/3 at freezing temperatures.
Therefore, the driving distance will be reduced during use below 0 °C.
However, the battery is not damaged when used at temperatures below
0 °C.
•All bikes, even the most sturdy and expensive, can be dangerous to drive
due to common wear, possible crashes, transportation, age and/or other
external factors.
•The user is responsible for using the bicycle safely. It is therefore
important to carry out regular safety checks.
•Only use the bike if it is in perfect condition.
•Customize your driving style to your abilities and surroundings.
•Avoid getting your clothes or bags stuck in the tyres.
•Always use a helmet when riding the eBike.
•Always remember to have the bike examined by a professional after a
crash or an accident.
•Bicycles are only safe to use if they are examined by a specialist every
year.
•Unsuitable spare parts and accessories can make the bike dangerous to
use. Always ask a professional.
•Drive safely and always be aware that eBikes are silent in use. When you
approach others, it is typically not detected by them.
•EBikes are only recommended for users who already can ride a regular
bike. Cyclists who have not been riding for a long time should only ride
eBikes in traffic when they are comfortable using it.
•Do not modify the bike or try to improve its driving style or speed. If such
modifications occur, the manufacturer will not take responsibility for the
eBike and the warranty, performance and product liability claims will be
invalidated.

E-Bikes with electric motors (electric bikes) are designed to be used on good
surfaces and roads, and they are not suitable for off-road terrain. The
maximum capacity of eBike is 120 kg including cyclist and bags.
Usage
When accelerated, the user must use his/her own muscle power. This is
essential when much energy is required.
If the battery is not charged, the safety protection is activated, and the
display will indicate that the battery needs charging. In this case, charge the
battery immediately.
Please notice the following must be in accordance with current laws and
regulations:
•The assist will automatically be deactivated at 25 km/h.
•If the motor does not initiate when the eBike is used, first check that the
battery is properly installed. If the problem persists, contact the store
where the eBike was purchased.

8
Purchase
Please note the following:
•Your bike is ready for use and has been controlled by a professional.
•The dealer informed you about the bike's functions and the safety
features.
•Always ask for the original instructions when dealing with complicated
parts.
Before using the eBike:
Read and implement the safety checklist.
Practice riding and braking on a safe surface, first using the rear brake and
then gradually using the front brake. You must be able to perform a complete
full stop without losing control. If the front tyre stops turning, the eBike will
become unstable and therefore the brakes should be adjusted by an expert.
After 4 weeks or 300 km.
•It is normal for any bike - even the most sturdy and expensive - to have
the brakes, gears, bearings and wheels adjusted regularly. This is done to
prevent product and personal injuries and malfunctions.
•Read these instructions carefully and make sure that the bike is properly
assembled before using it.
•Be careful when riding in the rain, on gravel or on slippery roads.
•The bike can be used in the rain without damaging it. However, the
electrical parts, such as the battery and the motor, should never be
immersed directly in water.
•Never touch the battery terminals with bare hands and never attempt to
short-circuit it.
•Never disassemble the electrical machine part. Contact a specialist.
•Never lend your eBike without prior thorough instruction in its use.
•Batteries are affected by different weather conditions. Generally, a
battery performs best when used at temperatures above 0 °C. The
battery capacity is reduced by approx. 1/3 at freezing temperatures.
Therefore, the driving distance will be reduced during use below 0 °C.
However, the battery is not damaged when used at temperatures below
0 °C.

Traffic laws and regulations
Traffic regulations and laws dictate the following:
Lights: Between sunset and sunrise, you must have and use one white light
pointing straight forward and one red one pointing straight back.
Reflectors: Your bike must have at least one red rear reflector and four
amber pedal reflectors.
Brakes: Your bike should have two functioning braking systems. Bikes in UK
generally have the right-hand lever for the front brake and left hand one – for
the rear brake.
Bell: Bike bells are not required by law in the UK, but it’s good to have it. A
polite but determined, chiefly British “Excuse me” can also work as a less
aggressive warning device.
Helmet: Wearing a helmet while riding is not mandatory.
Cycling rules in the UK
•Everyone must drive/ride on the left-hand side of the roadway. Never
ride your bike against the traffic flow.
•The use of cycle lanes is not compulsory and will depend on your
experience and skills, but they can make your journey safer.
•You may use a lane shared by bikes and pedestrians, but if it’s segregated
you must keep to the side intended for cyclists. In these cases, take care
when passing pedestrians, especially children, older or disabled people,
and allow them plenty of room.
•You cannot cycle on sidewalks / footpaths.
•In pedestrian areas, only ride your cycle if there aren’t too many
pedestrians about; otherwise dismount and push it. Also, if there is
signage specifically prohibiting cycling in such areas, you’d better respect
it.
•You can ride across cycle-only crossings and so-called Toucan crossings
– light-controlled crossings for both cyclists and pedestrians. They are
push-button operated. On any other type of crossing you must dismount
and walk across.
•You must not cross the stop line when the traffic lights are red. Just
don’t. Ever (yes, even when there’s nobody around). Some junctions

10
have an advanced stop line for cyclists where you can wait ahead of
other traffic.
•Do not pass between the curb and a bus when the bus is in a bus station.
•You must not carry a passenger unless your bike has been built or
adapted to carry one.
•You are not allowed to hold onto a moving vehicle or trailer.
•When approaching a junction on the left, watch out for vehicles turning
in front of you, out of or into the side road. Just before you turn, check
for undertaking cyclists or motorcyclists. Do not ride on the inside of
vehicles signaling or slowing down to turn left. Pay extra attention to
those nasty big trucks, they are dangerous to cycle next to, especially at
junctions.
•If you are turning right, check the traffic to ensure it is safe, then signal
and move to the center of the road. Wait until there is a safe gap in the
oncoming traffic and give a final look before completing the turn.
•Take extra care when crossing tramway tracks. You should also dismount
at level crossings where a ‘cyclist dismount’ sign is displayed.
•Cycling while drunk is, of course, a big NO. While there is no legal limit
for the alcohol volume accepted when riding a bike and nothing will
happen to your driver’s license, the police can decide you are not able to
ride safely and fine you by up to £2,500.
•We also recommend having liability insurance. Check with your insurance
company that your insurance covers all damages you may incur on the
bike.
•Cyclists must always respect all applicable traffic regulations and laws.
