Protection of the environment
H
Environmental note
Daimler's declared policy is one of com-
prehensive environmental protection.
The objective is to use the natural resour-
ces which form the basis of our existence
on this planet sparingly and in a manner
which takes the requirements of both nature
and humanity into account.
You too can help to protect the environment
by operating your smart ebike in an envi-
ronmentally-responsible manner.
Energy consumption and the rate of motor,
gearing, brake and tyre wear depend on the
following factors:
R
the operating conditions of your ebike
R
your personal riding style
You can influence both factors.
You should bear the following in mind:
Operating conditions:
R
make sure that the tyre pressures are
always correct.
R
do not carry any unnecessary weight.
R
keep an eye on energy consumption.
R
a regularly serviced ebike will contrib-
ute to environmental protection. You
should therefore adhere to the service
intervals.
R
always have service work carried out at a
specialist workshop which is qualified
to service smart ebikes.
Personal riding style:
R
ride carefully and maintain a suitable
distance from the vehicle in front.
R
avoid frequent, sudden acceleration.

Environmental note
Have defective batteries disposed of in an
environmentally responsible manner. Con-
tact a specialist workshop which is quali-
fied to service smart ebikes and has the
necessary specialist knowledge and tools
to carry out the work required.
Product information
smart recommends that you use genuine
smart parts, conversion parts and accesso-
ries that have been specifically approved
for your ebike.
smart tests genuine parts and conversion
parts and accessories that have been spe-
cifically approved for your ebike for their
reliability, safety and suitability.
Despite ongoing market research, smart is
unable to assess other parts. Therefore,
smart accepts no responsibility for the use
of such parts in smart ebikes. This is also
the case, even if they have been independ-
ently or officially approved. The use of
non-approved parts could affect the safety
of your ebike.
Genuine smart parts, approved conversion
parts and accessories are available from
smart dealers. Here, you will receive
advice about permissible technical modi-
fications, and the parts will be professio-
nally fitted.

life for your ebike, follow the instructions
and warning notices in this manual. Dis-
regarding them may lead to damage to the
ebike or personal injury.
