Automatic recuperation (optional)
Depending on the Pedelec's equipment by
the manufacturer, recuperation can also
be activated automatically by operating
the rear wheel brake. By doing so, energy
is automatically fed into the battery during
every braking process. To ensure controlled
and safe braking, recuperation during
braking is made with 40% energy recovery.
Recuperation may only be activated at
temperatures above 0° C. If temperature
drops below 0°C, recuperation is
automatically deactivated.
At speeds of less than 15 km/h the
motor is not yet at its optimum operating
point, this is why, recuperation cannot be
activated.
Activating recuperation is not possible
with a fully charged battery, since the
battery could be damaged as a result of
overcharging. Only at a battery charge level
≤
90% recuperation can be activated.
5.3.2.6 Braking assistant
The braking assistant can be activated
before the ride, if required. It assists you
with braking and ensures the recovered
energy is fed into the battery (if the battery
is not charged above the limit of 90% and
the temperature is not below 0°C).
To activate the braking assistant, press the
controller button [2] while being in the start
menu (see section 3.2.2) to access the next
submenu. Select "Menu" there and, in the
selection window appearing afterwards, the
item "Braking assistant". When selecting
the item "On", a new menu item is opened
in which, using the controller buttons [1]
and [3], you may preselect the speed from
which on a motor-assisted braking process
is to be carried out. A speed between
10 and 28 km/h can be set. If you have
adjusted the required speed, you can return
to the start menu by pressing the controller
button [1] several times.
If you wish to deactivate the braking
assistant, repeat the procedure and select
the item "Off" instead of "On". Please note
that neither an automatic deceleration nor
energy recovery and feeding into the battery
are carried out if the braking assistant is
deactivated - unless you select manual
recuperation (see section 3.2.5)
