Safety information
Please carefully read all warnings and notes in
this operating manual before using the bicycle.
We recommend keeping the manual close to
your bicycle, so that it is always at hand. Be-
fore operating a pedelec for the rst time, it is
also highly recommended that you carefully read
through the enclosed instructions about the elec-
tric motor.
Please ensure you read the chapters “Before
the rst ride” and “Before each ride” before
using the bicycle for the rst time!
If you lend your bicycle to a third party, please
give them this operating manual with the bicycle.
This operating manual contains different types
of pointers – one providing important informa-
tion about your new bicycle and how to use it, a
second referring to possible damage to property
and the environment, and a third type warning
against potential falls and serious damage, in-
cluding physical injury. The fourth type of point-
er asks you to comply with the correct torque in
order to prevent components from coming loose
or breaking.
If you see this symbol, there is always a risk that
the danger described can occur!
The text which the warning covers always has a
grey background.
Check that all quick releases are safe and secure
every time you ride after your bicycle was un-
used, even for a short period of time! Regularly
check that all bolts and components are secure.
Note that components made of composite mate-
rials, i.e. carbon bre, often require a lower tight-
ening torque (see “Bolted connections” section,
page 25). Common parts made of carbon bre
include the handlebars, stems, seat posts and
saddle rails, frames, forks, and cranks. Ask your
specialist retailer to instruct you on how to prop-
erly use and maintain these materials.
Never ride with your hands off the handlebars.
Modern bicycle technology is high
tech! Working on bicycle parts there-
fore requires special knowledge, ex-
perience and specialist tools! Please do not
attempt to work on the bicycle yourself! Give
your bicycle to a specialist retailer for repair,
servicing and maintenance!
The warnings break down as follows:
Information: This symbol pro-
vides information about how to
use the product or highlights
specic parts of the operating
manual that are particularly important.
Warning: This symbol is aimed
at warning you against improper
use that could result in damage
to property or the environment.
Danger: This symbol indicates
possible dangers to your health
and life that could arise if specif-
ic actions are not taken or corre-
sponding regulations adhered to.
Important bolted connection!
Please adhere to the exact rec-
ommended torque when tight-
ening this connection. The cor-
rect mounting torque is either displayed on
the component or listed in the table of tor-
ques in the “Bolted connections” section
(page 25). A torque wrench has to be used
to achieve the precise prescribed torque. If
you don’t own a torque wrench then you
should always leave this work up to a spe-
cialist retailer! Parts which do not have the
correct torque could fall off or break! This
can result in serious accidents!
