5.4.2 Switching the lights On/Off on models with EU-Type Approval
These models have a front light with a daytime running light, low beam and a high beam, and a rear light with an
integrated license plate light. The front and rear light are always on when the system is On (even if the assist level
is zero).
Depending on the darkness outside, measured by a light sensor, the front light will be in daytime running modus
or low beam modus. The high beam can be switch On/Off manually by pressing the high beam switch on the
handlebar once if the circumstances require extra lighting.

These models have an integrated brake light as well, operated by at least one of the two brake switches on both
brake levers.
5.5 Panniers
The rear rack is designed to carry a pannier on both sides.
The rack has a stop at each side to prevent the panniers sliding back and forth.
The maximum allowed load on the rack is 7,5kg / 16,5lb per side; in total 15kg / 33lb.
6. Bicycle specific maintenance
Important notes.
• In addition to the normal safety, when working on an electric bicycle, remove the battery to prevent accidental activation
of the system or electrical damage (unless instructed otherwise).
• Only use genuine replacement parts for safety-critical components.
WARNING.
Handle the battery with care. Do not drop or impact the battery. Mishandling of the battery could lead to severe
damage or over-heating. In an extremely rare case, a battery that has been severely impacted or otherwise mishandled
could potentially catch fire.
