3.3. Emergency stop, emergency shut-o
The bike does not have a separate emergency stop or emergency shut-o.
The power will shut o as soon as the force upon the pedals stops. The bike will
be mechanically braked or stopped with the brakes.
If the pushing aid is activated the drive is interrupted as soon as the correspond-
ing button is no longer pressed.
The drive system will not turn itself o during braking and thus remains availa-
ble at all times.
WARNING
When support mode is turned on the drive system reacts to the
smallest impulse introduced through the pedals.
Apply the brakes when getting to the bike to prevent an unin-
tended start and lower the risk of an accident.
The bike should only be turned on if the rider is able to brake, i.e.
can reach at least one brake
Do not perform work on the bike, without turning o the system.
