▪ Ask your cycle dealer to show you how to use
your bike and explain its special features and
components. Please also follow the component
guides  5. Component guides Page EN-10.
▪ Adjust the bicycle to your height
 14.4 Configuring the individual settings Page EN-21.
▪ Pedelec: We recommend that only youngsters aged
14 and above be allowed to ride a Pedelec.
▪ Pedelec/S-Pedelec: Practice riding with the assist
function in a safe place before venturing into
trac. Ride in the lowest assist mode until you feel
condent enough to try the higher modes. Dismount
if you ever feel unsafe.
▪ Practise braking in a safe place before venturing
into road trac  23. Brakes Page EN-32.
▪ Adapt your riding style to the prevailing trac
conditions. Bear in mind that longer braking
distances are needed on wet or icy roads. Think
ahead in such circumstances, anticipating the
actions of other road users, and reduce your speed.
▪ Avoid sudden jerky movements of the handlebars
and braking actions. Dismount if you ever feel
unsafe.
▪ Be ready to brake, particularly in situations with
poor visibility, and when riding downhill.
▪ Never ride "hands free". You may suer a serious
fall, and will also be committing a misdemeanour, as
you are required by law to always have at least one
hand on the handlebars  7.4 Rules of conduct on the
Internet Page EN-14.
▪ Concentrate on the trac. Do not let yourself
become distracted by the display or your
smartphone. We do not recommend listening to
music on headphones while riding.
▪ Only use original replacement parts when replacing
components and consumer parts. In addition to
original replacement parts, you may also use
compatible components that have been expressly
approved by us.
▪ Replace any damaged or bent components before
using the bike again. Not doing so can lead to the
failure of essential parts.
Serious falls and accidents caused by detached or
broken components.
▪ Have all assembly and adjustment work done in a
specialist workshop. If you must
attach anything yourself, use an
appropriate torque wrench and
be sure to comply with the speci-
ed tightening torques  13.
Tightening torques for threaded
connections Page EN-19. Insuci-
ently tightened screws/nuts can
loosen, tear o or break. Exces-
sively tightened screws/nuts can damage the

the components and in the operating instructions.
Tightening torques provided by a component
manufacturer shall take precedence over torque
values given in these operating instructions
