10 USER MANUAL USER MANUAL 11
Check the mounting options or consult your specialist. If the child seat is mount-
ed incorrectly a serious accident may occur.
Do not exceed the maximum permissible gross weight of the bike and the max-
imum load carrying capacity of the rear rack (If applicable). If you do, this could
damage the rear rack and frame and cause a serious accident.
3.7. Check Before Use
We’ve taken a lot of care during the assembly of your BEEQ, but parts may still
come loose or change of function during transportation for example.
You should therefore do a check of the following points:
• Is the tire pressure correct? (You can check the recommended tire pressure
engraved on the sidewall of the tires)
• Are the brakes working correctly?
• Are the batteries suiciently charged?
• Is the handlebar stem and seat post correctly inserted and tightened?
• Are the wheel hubs mounting nuts correctly tightened?
• Is there any screws, nuts and quick-release devices not properly tightened?
• Does the frame or fork present any deformation or damage?
• Is the bell working correctly?
4. The Bikes and its components
In order to understand this manual, it’s a good idea to know the components of
your bike and learn some bike vocabulary.
The following pictures describe the main components that equip your beeq.
Direct sunlight can lead to the temperature in the drive system signiicantly ex-
ceeding the permitted temperature.
WARNING
Do not expose the drive battery to permanent direct sunlight.
Higher temperatures can damage the drive battery and cause a
ire.
3.5. Total Weight Authorized on the bike
The total weight that a bike is authorized to carry includes the weight of the bike,
the weight of the rider, and the weight of luggage and accessories. You can ind
the information for your bike, label on the seat tube.
3.6. Child Seat and Bike Trailers
You can carry a child up to the age of seven years on the child seat. The rider must
be at least 16 years old. The total weight allowed must be respected.
WARNING
Only use child seats that satisfy the standard EN 14344.
These child seats must safely support the child’s feet.
Never leave your child unattended in the child seat when you
park your bike. The bike could fall over and severely injure the
child.
We do not recommend the use of bike trailers, the total weight
must be observed, the braking and handling can be seriously
aected.
When using a child seat/trailer, this adversely aects the han-
dling of the bike. The additional weight can cause the bike to
sway and signiicantly increases the braking distance. Adapt
your handling accordingly
If you change to a coil seatpost its recommended to cover any
coil springs under the saddle if a child-seat is itted to prevent
trapping of ingers.
