4.3 Instructions for driving with the drive system
Follow these instructions for riding your e-bike equipped with the FAZUA RIDE 50
drive system.
Changing gear:
The gears of your e-bike are to be operated in the same way as those of a conven-
tional bicycle. By selecting a suitable gear, the speed, power and range of your
e-bike will increase while maintaining the same cadence.
The following points apply regardless of the type of gears fitted:
→
Stop pedalling when you change gear. This relieves the derailleur mechanism
and the drive of your e-bike.
Range/route planning:
How long or far you can ride your e-bike before you have to recharge the BATTERY
depends on several factors.
These factors include, for example:
• The set support level;
• The (riding) speed at which you move forwards;
• The way in which you change gear;
• The type of tyres and the set tyre pressure;
• The selected route and weather conditions;
• The weight of the rider and the e-bike (total weight);
• The condition and age of the BATTERY.
The following general principles apply:
→
Familiarise yourself with your e-bike step by step and stay away from roads
and heavy traffic initially.
→
Test the maximum range of your e-bike under various outdoor conditions
before planning longer trips. An exact statement regarding the range of your
system is not possible before or during a trip.
Storage and operating temperatures
→
Observe the operating and storage temperatures for the components of the
drive system and for the components of your e-bike, and in particular those for
the BATTERY, as it can be damaged by extreme temperatures.
→
For more detailed information on storage and operating temperatures, see the technical
data for the individual components at Page 39, Page 44, Page 48, Page 55 and Page 62,
as well as in chapter 5 “Storage and transport”.
