1.6   Adjustments/maintenance/repair

Take the battery out before beginning work (e.g. 

assembly, servicing, etc.) on the Pedelec. There is 

a risk of injury through accidentally operating the 

battery switch.

When carrying out adjustments and maintenance 

or when cleaning, avoid crushing cables or damag-

ing them with sharp edges.

Please have all installation and adjustment work 

carried out by your specialist cycle shop. In case 

you have to fasten something in place or change 

something yourself, you will find an exhaustive list 

at the end of the 

“Original User Manual | General”

(CD) detailing the tightening torques which must 

always be adhered to.

When replacing the handlebar, ensure that the 

weights are also changed.

1.7  Transportation of the Pedelec

Remove the battery before transporting the Pe-

delec. There is a risk of injury through accidentally 

operating the battery switch. A suitable storage 

container can be obtained from your specialist 

cycle shop.

1.7.1  The Pedelec and your car

If you transport your Pedelec on a bike rack, ensure that it 

is designed for the higher weight of a Pedelec. To reduce 

the load on the rack, and for protection against the weath-

er, the battery must be transported inside the car.

1.7.2  The Pedelec on trains

In Germany, you can take your Pedelec with you on trains 

which are marked with the bike symbol. On German Inter-

city (IC) and EuroCity (EC) trains, you must book a place 

Condensation may form on the charger if the 

temperature changes suddenly from cold to hot. 

In case of condensation, wait approximately one 

hour before connecting the charger to the mains, 

until it has warmed up to the temperature of the 

room. Ideally, avoid such situations by storing the 

charger in the place where it is operated.

Only charge the battery at ambient temperatures 

of between 0°C and +45°C. You can maximise a 

battery's service life, however, by charging it at 

an ambient temperature of between +10°C and 

+30°C.

1.5  Motor

If children are present, keep a close eye on them, 

especially if there is a possibility they could insert 

objects into the motor through apertures in the 

housing. This poses the danger of fatal electric 

shock.

Bear in mind that the motor can heat up on long 

ascents. Be careful not to touch it with your hands, 

feet or legs. You could burn yourself.

Live parts may be exposed when you open covers 

or remove parts. Connection points may also be 

live. Maintenance or repairs on the motor when it 

is open must only be carried out by a professional 

bike workshop.
