DANGER!
H
If a component needs to be replaced, make it a rule to only use original
spare parts. Wearing parts of other manufacturers, e.g. brake pads or
tyres that are not of identical size, may cause harm to the safety of your SCOTT
pedelec or SCOTT speed pedelec. Risk of accident! In the case of SCOTT speed
pedelecs be sure to only assemble original spare parts, otherwise the operating
licence expires.
CAUTION!
S
Be aware that the brakes of your SCOTT speed pedelec are always more
effective than the drive. If you face any problems with your drive (e.g. be-
cause it pushes you forward in front of a bend), slow down your SCOTT speed
pedelec carefully.
NOTE!
U
The regulations and rules for pedelecs and speed pedelecs are being re-
vised constantly. Read the daily press to keep you informed about current
legislative changes.
INFORMATION FOR PROPER HANDLING OF THE
RECHARGEABLE BATTERY
Remove the rechargeable battery, if you do not use your SCOTT pedelec for
a longer period of time (e.g. during the winter season). Store the rechargeable
battery in a dry room at temperatures between 5 and 20 degrees Celsius. The
state of charge should be 50 to 70 % of the charging capacity. Check the state of
charge (f), if the rechargeable battery is left unused for more than two months
and recharge it in between, if necessary, to 50 %, i.e. until half of the LEDs.
Clean the battery housing with a dry or, if at all, a slightly moist rag. Do not
direct the water jet of a high-pressure cleaner at the rechargeable battery
or submerge the battery into water, as there is a risk of water entry and/or
short-circuit.
For more information on the proper handling of your rechargeable battery see
the system instructions of your drive manufacturer on this SCOTT info CD.
Inform yourself in the country where you use your SCOTT speed pedelec about
the regulations of
- using cycle lanes and paths within built-up areas,
- using lanes that are marked with a road sign allowing access for mopeds,
- using your SCOTT speed pedelec on cycle lanes which are allowed for mo-
peds,
- riding in the wrong (opposing) direction up one-way roads, even if ordinary
cyclists are permitted to do this,
- using pedestrian zones, even when they are allowed for bikes,
- using bike parking facilities,
- using forest trails
- using your SCOTT speed pedelec on lanes which are closed to motor vehi-
cles, motorcycles and mopeds,
- using your SCOTT speed pedelec on public roads and on private premises, if
authorized by the owner.

When riding a SCOTT speed pedelec wearing a suitable helmet (c) is
compulsory in Germany and Switzerland. Check the regulations on wearing
helmets in your country. Ask your SCOTT dealer about suitable SCOTT helmets
for SCOTT speed pedelecs.

Pull the brake lever of the rear brake (d) and stop pedalling. The pedelec

tance brake with both brakes in a way that the pedelec slows down gradually
(see chapter “Brakes”).
