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 FLYER 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.

pedals backwards freely as you otherwise can.
Back pedal brakes work best when both

crank is pointing up and the other one
down, less force can be applied and

Thee󰀨ectiveness of back pedal brakes
can deteriorate substantially on long
slopes if they are used on their own.
This type of braking system can become
very hot from continuous braking. Use
the rim brakes too on long slopes.
Wait until the back pedal brake has
cooled down and do not touch the brake
drum.
Ensure that the brake anchor plate is
correctly attached with the appropriate
screw when removing or installing it.

Your FLYER e-bike's lighting system is usually
powered by the battery. When the battery is emp

ty, the light should still work for about one hour.
The headlight must be aligned to illuminate the
road according to the legal regulations of your
country.
Have the lighting system checked and, if
necessary, replaced by your FLYER spe

cialist retailer if a fault occurs.
