A lack of practice when using clipless
pedals or too much spring tension in the
mechanism can lead to a very firm con-
nection, from which you cannot quickly step out!
Risk of an accident!

Pulling the brake lever of the rear brake
stops the motor

In case you had a crash with your
CENTURION pedelec, perform at least
the check described in the chapter “After
an accident“. Ride back very carefully by taking the
shortest route possible, even if your CENTURION
pedelec went through this check without any
problems. Do not accelerate or brake hard and do
not ride your pedelec out of the saddle. If you are
in doubt, have yourself picked up by car, instead
of taking any risk. Back home you need to check
once again your CENTURION pedelec thoroughly.
If you are in doubt or if you have any questions,
contact your CENTURION dealer!
G
We recommend that you charge your
battery only during the day and only in
dry rooms which have a smoke or a fire
detector; but not in your bedroom. Place the bat-
tery on a big, non-inflammable plate made of ce-
ramics or glass
(f)
during the charging process!
Unplug the battery once it has been charged up.
G
Charge your battery only with the sup-
plied charger
(g)
. Do not use the charg-
er of any other manufacturer, not even
when the connector of the charger matches your
rechargeable battery. The rechargeable battery
can heat up, catch fire or even explode!
G
Do not park your CENTURION pedelec
in the blazing sun.
A
The weight distribution on your
CENTURION pedelec differs markedly
from the weight distribution on bicycles
without drive assistance. A CENTURION pedelec
is markedly heavier than a CENTURION bike
without drive assistance. For this reason park-
ing, pushing, lifting and carrying the CENTURION
pedelec is more difficult. Bear this in mind when
loading your pedelec into a car and unloading it
or when mounting it on a bicycle carrier system.
A
Be aware that the brakes of your
CENTURION pedelec are always more
effective than the drive. If you face any
problems with your drive (e.g. because it pushes
you forward in front of a bend), slow down your
CENTURION pedelec carefully.
A
Before towing a trailer
(h)
with your
CENTURION pedelec contact your
CENTURION dealer.
A
Before mounting a child seat, have a
look at the bike card and contact your
CENTURION dealer.
A
Please note that not all CENTURION
pedelecs are fitted with kickstands.
Therefore, when parking your
CENTURION pedelec, make sure it stands safe
and secure and is not at risk of toppling over or
being knocked over. If your CENTURION pedelec
topples over, it can suffer from damage.
