Inserting the battery
1) Inserting the battery
Place the battery into the lower holder of the
e-bike and tilt its upper part towards the vehicle
until the lock latches onto the upper holder.
Ensure that the battery is correctly positioned in
the holder.
• Prevent extreme overheating due to
external effects or overloading.
• Only use the battery with your FLYER.
• Never use a damaged battery. If you
discover cracks, deformation of the
housing or leaks, stop using the bat
-
tery and have your FLYER checked
by a specialist retailer.
• The lighting function will still continue
for approx. one hour after the battery
is empty.
5.3 Pushing aid
Your FLYER is provided with pushing assistance
up to of 25 km/h. The pushing assisting will be
activated for as long as you press down the bike
button. It allows you to move your FLYER slowly
at up to 6 km/h without pedalling. If you have to
push the FLYER out of an underpass or a parking
garage for example, this aid can be useful. Use
your pushing aid only while walking next to the
vehicle, hold the handlebars at all times with both
hands and remain ready to brake. Do not use
the pushing aid to ride the bike. The installation
is performed in compliance with national regula
-
tions. Due to legal requirements, e-bikes that pro-
vide pedalling assistance over 25 km/hour may
not be equipped with pushing assistance.
6. Legal requirements
However, the rules and regulations for
e-bikes are constantly being revised and
changed. Stay informed about changes in
legislation in order to remain up-to-date.
For pedelecs and e-bikes, special provisions apply
for their limit of use. This means that e-bikes are
partly operated like a bicycle and other times not.
Before riding on public roads with your FLYER,
inform yourself on the current legal requirements
enforced in your country.
This information can be found at your FLYER re
-
tail store, the respective national bike or e-bike
associations and online.
Here you can gather information on how your
FLYER must be equipped in order to ride it on
public roads.
The lighting system required to be installed or
carried with you is also described. You will also
be informed on which brakes the bike needs to
be equipped with.
By reading up on current national regulations,
you’ll obtain information about the current age
required to ride the bike and where it is allowed
or must be ridden. The regulations for children
riding on public roads are also found here. It will
be made clear if a helmet is required to be worn
by law.
Check whether your private third-party-
liability insurance covers possible dam-
age caused by using an e-bike.
