Check the screws on the brake caliper and the brake pads once month. The
brake pads are wearing parts. Replace the brake pads when they are less than
1mm thick. Check the brake system regularly for leaks.
For more information on the installed Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, see the
manufacturer‘s instructions on the web at:

Note that the installed hydraulic disc brakes have very high braking eect -
dose the braking force carefully. Always apply both brakes simultaneously when
braking. Especially the use of the front brake alone is to be avoided on the e-muli
due to the wide distance between handlebar and front wheel. On rough, sandy,
uneven, very slippery, wet surfaces and when cornering, applying the front brake
alone can very easily cause the front wheel to slip and lead to serious falls.
Keep in mind that the braking distance and the braking behavior change de-
pending on the load conditions and the slope of the road. The braking distance
increases when riding at high speeds and on sloping roads.
The distance between brake pad and brake disc
should be between 0.25 and 0.75mm.
Note that the disc brakes may be heated after heavy
use - there is risk of burns.
