2. Denition of terms
These original operating instructions contain the
most important information required to familiarise
yourself with your new FLYER, to get to know its
technology, to attend to safety aspects and pre
-
vent damage to persons, goods and the environ-
ment. You should therefore keep this manual in a
safe place, always have it to hand and observe
the pointers provided in this manual which have
proven to be helpful when using this FLYER.
Please provide these instructions with the FLYER
when you lend your FLYER to other persons.
You are strongly advised to carefully read the
attached instructions manual to the electric drive
system before you use your bike for the rst time.
The following symbols are repeatedly shown on
the pages below:
DANGER: There is a risk of personal in-
jury.
NOTE: Here you can nd important in-
formation which will help you get the
most out of your FLYER e-bike.
WARNING: This is an indication of pos-
sible damage to property or the environ-
ment.
OBSERVE PRESCRIBED TORQUE:
Screw connections must be tightened
with a specic fastening torque. This is
only possible with a special tool called a
torque spanner. Have this work per
-
formed by your FLYER specialist retailer
if you do not have the right tools or spe
-
cialised knowledge. Parts which have
been tted with the incorrect torque may
break or fall off, which can lead to seri
-
ous falls. The correct fastening torque is
either imprinted on the component or
listed in the “Fastening torques” chapter.
From now on, these symbols will be used with
-
out further explanation. However, they will always
stand for the content and warning being men
-
tioned. Carefully read all the instructions.
3. Safety information
It is essential that you perform the tests and in-
spections stipulated. Negligence is a great dan-
ger, especially in this area. Protect yourself and
other road trafc participants by behaving safely
and responsibly and always
considering the dangers to
which you are subject as a
cyclist amid road trafc. Al
-
ways wear a well-tting and
suitable helmet. Ask your
FLYER specialist retailer
how to t your helmet cor
-
rectly so that it protects you
properly.
These original operating instructions do
not instruct on how to assemble a
FLYER from individual parts, how to re
-
pair it or how to get partially assembled
FLYERS ready to operate.
The FLYER is tted with highly complex,
modern technology. It must be handled
with specialised knowledge, experience
and the specialised tools required. Only
allow your FLYER specialist retailer to
perform work on your FLYER. We are
therefore only able to discuss the most
important aspects in this operating man
-
ual. In addition, there are also notes and
instructions from the respective manu
-
facturers of the individual components
used on the bicycle. These must also be
considered. The same applies here: If
anything is unclear, do not hesitate to
ask your FLYER specialist retailer.
Being seen on the road is just as important as
being able to see. Therefore, always wear bright
clothing or clothing with reective elements when
you ride; sports clothing is the best option. Do not
wear loose clothes that might be caught on ob
-
jects or might get tangled in the vehicle. Tie your
trouser legs on both sides tightly to the body. Tight
clothing on your lower body is also a must, you
should therefore use trouser clips if necessary.
Drive with sturdy shoes. The soles of your shoes
should be rigid and slip-proof. Never ride with
your hands off the handlebars.
