IV.I International
DANGER
Neverride"handsfree".You could fall o and seriously injure or even
kill yourself – and also be liable for prosecution. You must always
have at least one hand on the handlebars.
Alwaysobservetherelevantnationaltracregulations.Otherwise
you run the risk of a serious accident. Before using your pedelec
abroad, nd out about the regulations applicable in that country.
Likeallbicycles,thepedelecmustcomplywiththerespectivenational
roadtracregulationsandapplicablestandards.Ifyoucarryout
anytechnicalmodications,bearinmindtherelevantnationaltrac
regulationsandapplicablestandards. If the cut-o speed exceeds
25 km/h and/or the speed of the push assist exceeds 6 km/h, the
pedelec will become liable to mandatory registration and insurance.
Technical modications can impair the function of your pedelec,
resulting in damage to components. If this happens while you are
riding the bike you could be severely injured or killed. Furthermore,
it will invalidate the manufacturer's liability, warranty and guarantee
(where applicable).
II.IV Servicebook
In the accompanying service book, you will nd the warranty terms, a
list of wearing parts, a cycle passport, and forms to use for initial sale,
maintenance and owner changes.
DANGER
Keeptheservicebookappropriatelyup-to-dateandadheretothe
maintenance
intervals. Components can fail if wear and damage are
not identied in good time. If this happens whilst you are cycling, you
could injure yourself very seriously or even die. Replace any worn,
damaged or bent components before using the bike again.
