Improperly closed fastenings, e.g.
quick-releases, can cause parts of your
CENTURION bike to come loose. This
can result in a serious accident!
G
Be aware that the distance you need to
stop your pedelec increases, when you
are riding with your hands on bar ends
or on multi-position handlebars. The brake levers
are not always within easy reach.
G
Do not use your CENTURION bike, if it
fails at one of these points! A defective
CENTURION bike can lead to serious
accidents! If you are in doubt or if you have any
questions, contact your CENTURION dealer.
G
During use your CENTURION bike is
undergoing stress resulting from the
surface of the road and from the rider’s
action. Due to these dynamic loads, the different
parts of your pedelec react with wear and fatigue.
Please check your CENTURION bike regularly
for wear marks, scratches, deformations, color
changes and any indication of cracking. Compo-
nents which have reached the end of their service
life may break without previous warning. Let your
CENTURION dealer maintain and service your
CENTURION bike regularly. In cases of doubt it is
always best to replace components.
Additional information “Before every
ride” with your CENTURION pedelec
1. Are the connections of the rechargeable battery,
the drive HMI or the command console and the
drive
(f)
correctly plugged?
For more information see the system instructions
of your drive manufacturer on this CENTURION
CD-ROM.
2. Is your battery fully charged? Remember to fully
recharge the battery after each longer ride (e.g.
less than 50 % charged). Modern lithium-ion bat-
teries have no memory effect. However, it does
not matter if your CENTURION pedelec is left as it
is for a short time (e.g. overnight) when less than
50 % charged
(g)
. However, you should not wait
until the battery is fully discharged!
For more information see the system instructions
of your drive manufacturer on this CENTURION
CD-ROM.
3. Do the display on the control element
(h)
and the
cycle computer on the handlebars show all the
values? Is there any error message or warning on
the display? Check the values are correct before
every ride. Do not set off on your CENTURION
pedelec under any circumstances if the control
element shows a warning.
