• Battery pack recycling
Because a battery pack contains certain harmful substances, it must be treated as
chemical waste and may not be disposed as normal waste.
NOTICE. A battery pack may not be disposed as normal waste to prevent environmental
pollution, a defective or end-of-life battery pack can be handed over to your dealer or to
another waste disposal according to local rules.
4.8 Warnings and Suggestions for use
• Think about Safety
a. Do not ride the electric bike without the battery pack. The battery pack must be on the bike while
riding, else the bike has no lights when needed.
b. Do not misuse the electric bike by riding it without a saddle.

situations when still riding on the electric bike without a saddle.
c.Checkyourbikefornormaloperation,loosepartsanddefectsbeforeriding.
d. Be aware that other road users do not expect that an electric bike can ride faster than a normal
bike. Riding faster also increases the risk of accidents.
