Trailer operation
Find out whether you may attach a trailer to your
Pedelec. Contact your specialist bicycle dealer
as required.
As an example: in Germany, it is not permitted
to ride an S-Pedelec and pull a child trailer with
a child in it.
Please also take note of the currently
valid national jurisdiction, in particu-
lar whether the trailer may be used
for transporting children.
Pedelec with support up to 25 km/h
S-Pedelec
Transporting a Pedelec compared to a normal bicycle. The reasons for
this are the higher vehicle weight and the higher
average speed achieved due to the drive. Higher
wear is not a material fault and is not covered
by the warranty. Typical components affected by
this are:
• Tyres
• Brake pads
• Components of the drive
• Spokes
The battery is subject to ageing and is therefore
a wearing part. Please note that the riding range
drops with the age and the extent of use of the
battery. Consider this when planning trips and
exchange the battery for a new one as required.
Replacement batteries are available from your
specialist dealer.
Batteries for Pedelecs and electrical bicycles
Batteries for Pedelecs and electrical bicycles
must be treated as dangerous goods and are
therefore subject to special marking retirements.
They must always be disposed of through a spe-
cialist dealer or the manufacturer.
Accus are no waste! For proper disposal ask
your specialized dealer.
Liability for material defects and service life
A legally stipulated liability period
of two years applies to material
defects. Increased application of
force resulting from the electrical
ride leads to higher wear of wear-
ing parts such as brakes and tyres
By car
You can transport the Pedelec on a suitable car-
rier by car, just like a bicycle.
• Note that the carrier must be licensed for the
higher weight of the Pedelec.
• Remove the battery before transport and han-
dle it separately.
• Make sure that the contacts are protected
against shortcuts.
By public transport
The regulations for the transport of bicycles also
apply here. They are listed in the general part of
these instructions. For safety reasons take the
battery of the bike before entering the train. Put it
back in when you have left the train.
By aircraft
The battery packs are subject to the Dangerous
Goods Legislation requirements. It is not allowed
to tranport a battery in Aircraft.
