6.0 Important Safety Instructions
Make certain that you and your A2B have been prepared for a safe
and pleasant trip.
ALWAYS wear an approved bicycle helmet.
If you lend your A2B to
someone else, make sure you always lend them an approved helmet
as well.
DO NOT carry a second passenger on your A2B.
Overloading
your A2B with a second passenger can lead to severe injuries or
even death.
OBEY all traffic laws
Always ride on the correct side of the street,
with the direction of traffic and not against it.
Watch out for car doors.
Remember that cars may open their doors
while you are approaching.

double or even triple the braking distance of your A2B. Ride more
slowly, be prepared to stop in time and begin braking earlier. Wet
roads are slippery – take corners carefully.
Make sure you are seen.
In poor lighting conditions and at night
you should wear bright clothes, with reflective strips at best.
Remain attentive while riding.
Pay attention to moving and
stationary vehicles.
Special note for S-Pedelecs.
Ensure that every user of the
A2B complies with the statutory regulations in 2.1 (pg.2 - pg.3).

speed.
