BEFORE YOUR FIRST RIDE
1. The CUBE EPO pedelec is designed for a maximum overall weight
of 140 kg. including rider, baggage and CUBE EPO pedelec. Any
additional load depends on the pannier rack the pedelec is
equipped with. The maximum overall weight is specied in the
bicycle card enclosed with these supplementary instructions; if it
is not, contact your CUBE dealer.
a
The weight distribution on CUBE EPO pedelecs diers
markedly from the weight distribution on bicycles with-
out drive assistance. Due to the rear wheel drive the CUBE
EPO pedelec is much heavier in the rear than in the front.
For this reason pushing, lifting and carrying the CUBE EPO
pedelec is more dicult. Bear this in mind when loading
your pedelec into a car and unloading it or when mounting
it on a bicycle carrier system.
2. If you want to use your bicycle on public roads, it has to comply
with the respective legal requirements. These requirements may
vary in each country. The ttings of your CUBE EPO pedelec are,
therefore, not necessarily complete. Ask your CUBE dealer for the
laws and regulations applicable in your country or in the country
you intend to use the CUBE EPO pedelec. Have your CUBE EPO
pedelec equipped accordingly, before using it on public roads.
3. The rechargeable battery of your CUBE EPO pedelec
(e) must
be charged before you set o for the rst time. Are you familiar
with the handling and mounting of the rechargeable battery
(f) ?
Before you set o for the rst time, check whether the battery
is properly mounted, that it has engaged audibly and that it is
locked
(g) . For more information see chapter “Rechargeable
Battery”
.
i
Please note that the rechargeable battery switches into
the sleep mode after eight days of non-use. The recharge-
able battery is restarted by pressing the ON-button on the
battery housing once.
4. The functions of your CUBE EPO pedelec are operated with the
buttons next to the control elements
(h) . Are you familiar with all
functions and displays? Check whether you know the functions
of all buttons on the display. For more information see chapter
“Display Operation and Control”
.
5. Are you familiar with the brake system? Have a look at the bicycle
card and check whether the brake lever of the front brake is on
the side you are used to (right or left). If it is not, have it modied
by your CUBE dealer before you set o for the rst time!
