25.7 Charging the battery
(note on removal/installation)
!
WARNING
Risk of electric shock!
Improper handling of electrical power and live components, as well
as the battery and e-bike system, may result in electric shock and/or
serious injury.
» Never remove the battery from the frame without authorisation.
» Always contact your dealer or Schindelhauer Bikes directly in case of
damage or other problems.
Charging the battery
1. Connect your charger to the mains power supply.
2. Connect the charger to your e-bike.
The LED on the iWoc ONE Remote turns on automatically and starts
changing its brightness cyclically. The colour indicates the current charge
status of your e-bike. If the LED is permanently white, the battery is fully
charged (>98%).
26 Brake system
Your e-bike is equipped with hydraulic disc brakes that act independently
on the front and rear wheels.
26.1 Warnings for using the brakes
The following warnings always apply to the use of the brakes on your
e-bike, regardless of the type or types of brakes with which your e-bike
is equipped.
!
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
When you cycle on icy, wet, slippery or dirty roads, the tyres have less
grip. This lack of grip reduces the braking power, your stopping distance
increases and your e-bike can swing out during sudden braking.
» Always adapt both your cycling style and speed to current weather
conditions and road characteristics.
!
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
If you brake the front wheel abruptly, you could roll over or fall with
the e-bike.
» Use the front brake very carefully, especially when cycling at high
speed.
» Always brake simultaneously with front and rear brakes. Especially
when cycling at high speed, make sure that your e-bike is not braked
abruptly with the front brake alone.
» Adjust the intensity with which you brake your e-bike – i.e. the
braking force – to the cycling situation.
!
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
If components of the disc brake wear out without you noticing it, a loss
of function of the disc brake can result.
» Check the brake system regularly (monthly or every 500 km)
according to the manufacturer's instructions and have the
components replaced by your dealer in good time.
!
WARNING
Risk of injury from rotating brake discs and
sharp edges!
Brake discs have sharp edges and can lead to serious cuts. Rotating
brake discs can sever limbs.
» Do not reach into a rotating brake disc.
» Wear protective gloves when working on or near the brake disc.
!
WARNING
Risk of accident and injury!
The braking force of the hydraulic braking system decreases.
» Have the brake system checked regularly by your specialist dealer
and the brake fluid changed if necessary.
!
CAUTION
Risk of burns from contact with hot brake discs!
Brake discs can become very hot due to solar radiation and during
operation, especially when the brake is used intensively (e.g. when
cycling downhill or during emergency braking).
» Always let the brake disc cool down first before working on or near
the brake disc.
NOTE
Risk of damage!
Depending on the intensity of use, the brake pads of the disc brake
can “glaze” over time, possibly reducing the braking effect and causing
annoying noises (squeaking). Glazing can also occur when you make
an emergency stop with new brake pads. When fitting or removing the
corresponding wheel, you can also damage the disc brake components.
» When descending longer gradients, regularly try to brake abruptly
and relatively hard to “release” glazed brake pads. Always make sure
that you can perform the cycling or braking manoeuvre in question
without risk.
» Brake your disc brake away from road traffic before using your e-bike
regularly when the disc brake and/or your e-bike is new or after
the brake pads have been replaced

brakes” on page 144 .
» If you are unsure or do not have the necessary expertise, contact
your dealer to remove or install a wheel with a brake disc fitted to
its hub.
