5  Control panels

When buying your Impulse Pedelec, there are two different 

control panels to choose from: with an LED or LCD display. 

With the LED display, lit diodes display the information for 

you, while more information is displayed with the LCD ele-

ment. In addition, text and digits are shown on the display.

The control panel on the handlebar has three or four but-

cators. The buttons used to control the level of assistance 

are located on the left-hand side of the control panel.

Above and to the right you can see the row of LED indica-

SPORT

.

The following applies only to bikes which are equipped 

with a back-pedal brake:

The system will now perform a system check. At this time, 

the LED on the left will now come on for approx. two sec-

onds, followed by all LEDs for approx. one second. If you 

set off now, the system will normally detect a pedal move-

ment in the “drive” and “back-pedal brake” directions. 

This completes the system check, and you can ride as  

normal with assistance.

If you cannot feel any assistance, simply back-pedal 

briefly and then pedal forwards again to trigger the 

system check. In the event that the LEDs continue to 

flash in the pattern described above and the motor is 

not providing any assistance, then you should consult 

a specialist dealer.
