Brake discs and brake pads are particu-
larly subject to wear. Have these safe-
ty-related components regularly checked
for wear and changed as required by
your FL
YER specialist retailer.
If the brake system needs to be cleaned, contact
your FLYER specialist retailer. The component
manufacturer’s instructions on how to clean the
brake system are provided in the respective brake
system manual.
Only allow your FLYER specialist retailer to
maintain the brake system and change individual
brake system components. Only original spare
parts may be used. Otherwise it is possible that
the functionality of your FLYER E-bike may be im
-
pacted or damaged.

CAUTION–ABSerrormessagescan-
not be displayed if the ABS warning
lightisfaulty.
When starting up the E-bike system, the
cyclist must be sure that the ABS warning
light is present and turns on, otherwise
it is faulty.
RidingwithanemptyE-bikebattery
If the battery charge falls below a certain threshold,
thesystemrstdeactivatesthemotorassistance.
The system including the display, light and ABS re-
mains active regardless until the battery reserves
are also depleted. The E-bike system and ABS will
notswitcho󰀨untilthebatteryisalmostcompletely
empty.
Beforethe system switches o󰀨 entirely, the war-
ninglightturnsonagainforaroundveseconds.
From this point onwards, the ABS warning light
turnso󰀨eventhoughtheABScontrolisnolonger
active. The ABS will not be active if there is no bat-
tery or only an empty battery on the E-bike.
The brake system itself will continue to work, only
the ABS system control will stop.
Charge your battery in order to reactivate the E-bi-
ke system including the ABS feature.
WARNING–ABSnotactivewhenthe-
reisnopowersupply.In the event of a
power cut, an empty battery or no battery
at all, the ABS will not be active and the
ABS warning light will not turn on.
Hydraulicrimbrakes
Due to the wear and tear put on the brake pads,
the brake levers will eventually need to be pushed
down harder to operate. When this happens, you
may have to adjust the rim brakes. As is the case
for most bike models, this can be done by adjust
-
ing a screw or a setting wheel on the brake lever.
Ask your FL
YER specialist retailer for details.
Brake blocks/pads and rims are wearing parts
due to their use. Have the state of wear inspected
at regular intervals by your FLYER specialist re
-
tailer. Grooves in the brake blocks and embedded
points
in the rims help you determine the level of
wear. If the grooves in the brake pads or the dots
on the rims aren’t visible, it means that they are
worn out and either the brake pads or the rims
must be replaced. Always change both brake
blocks at the same time.
