Be aware that the brakes of your
CENTURION pedelec are always more
effective than the drive. If you face any
problems with your drive (e.g. because it pushes
you forward in front of a bend), slow down your
CENTURION pedelec carefully.
S
Before towing a trailer (e) with your
CENTURION pedelec contact your
CENTURION dealer.
S
Before mounting a child seat (f) , have a
look at the bike card and contact your
CENTURION dealer.
S
Please note that not all CENTURION
pedelecs are fitted with kickstands.
Therefore, when parking your
CENTURION pedelec, make sure it stands safe
and secure and is not at risk of toppling over or
being knocked over. If your CENTURION pedelec
topples over, it can suffer from damage.
Before every ride
Your CENTURION bike has undergone numerous
tests during production and a final check has been
carried out by your CENTURION dealer. Neverthe-
less, be sure to check the following points before
every ride to exclude any malfunctioning that may be
due to the transport of your CENTURION bike or to
changes a third person may have performed on your
CENTURION bike before delivery:
1. Are the quick-release levers
(g) or bolted con-
nections of the front and rear wheel, the seat post
and other components properly closed?
For more information see the chapter “How to
use the quick-releases” and the instructions of the
component manufacturers on this CENTURION
CD-ROM.
2. Are the tires in good condition and do they have
sufficient pressure
(h) ? A higher pressure gives
a better riding stability and reduces the risk of a
puncture. The minimum and maximum pressure
(in bar or psi) is indicated on the tire side.
For more information see the chapter “The
wheels and the tires” and the instructions of the
component manufacturers on this CENTURION
CD-ROM.
