4. INTRODUCTION
Dear Customer,
We’d like to provide you with some important information about your new bicycle. This will help you make the most of it and avoid any possible risks.
Please read this instruction manual carefully and keep it for future reference.
Your bicycle was fully assembled before you received it. If this was not the case, please contact your Authorized Specialized Dealer to ensure that this
important work is completed.
Users of this product should have a basic and sufficient knowledge of how to use bicycles.
Everyone who uses, repairs, services, cleans or disposes of this bicycle must understand and take note of the content and purpose of this instruction
manual. If you have any questions or you are not clear on certain points, you should contact your Authorized Specialized Dealer for your own safety.
All information in this instruction manual relates to the construction, technology as well as care and servicing of your bicycle. Please take notice of this
information as much of it is relevant to your safety - failure to follow it can result in serious accidents and damage.
This instruction manual only applies to the bicycle with which it was supplied.
For more specific technical details, please refer to the enclosed notes and instructions from the respective manufacturers of the individual
components used on the bicycle. If you are unsure about a particular point, please contact your Authorized Specialized Dealer.
Before riding your electric bicycle, please check your local laws related to bicycles and electric bicycles. If you are unsure as to where to refer to your
local laws, please refer to your Authorized Specialized Dealer. Applicable laws may include laws related to the following, without limitation, and which
are examples only:
• Where you may or may not ride your bicycle.
• Whether you must register to electric bicycle.
• Whether you must have a driver’s license to operate your bicycle.
• Whether and what type of helmet you must wear to operate your bicycle.
• The required age for riding an electric bicycle.
Important points for rider safety:
• Always wear a suitable helmet adjusted to fit your head and wear it for every ride!
• Read the instructions supplied by your helmet manufacturer relating to fitting the helmet properly.
• Always wear bright clothing or sportswear with reflective elements when you ride. This is vital to ensure you
are SEEN.
• Always wear tight clothing on your lower body, and trouser clips if required. This prevents any loose items of
clothing from snagging and leading to possible injury. Your shoes should be grippy and have stiff soles.
Even if you are an experienced bicycle user, please take the time to first read the chapter “Before the
first ride” and then carry out all the important checks from the chapter “Before each ride”.
Please note that as a cyclist, you are particularly at risk on public roads. Ensure that you protect yourself and others
with responsible and safe riding!
When in the 45 km/h max speed setting, the Turbo is referred to as an L1e S-Pedelec or speed Pedelec. When in
the 25 km/h max speed setting, it’s referred to simply as a bicycle or Pedelec.
