5.1 Safety information
DANGER
Do not allow yourself to be distracted by the display on the display
element. If you do not fully concentrate on the traffic, you risk being
involved in a serious accident or fall with fatal consequences.
WARNING
Do not attempt any modifications to the drive. For example, it is
not permitted to raise the cut-off speed above 20 mph. Pedelecs
with modified drive power may no longer comply with the legal
requirements of the relevant country. You may be liable to prosecution
if you ride on public roads with a “tuned” Pedelec. There is also a risk
of a technical failure. Modified bikes of this type are excluded from
the warranty and guarantee.
Always remove the battery before starting to work on the Pedelec. Ac-
cidental activation of the
button may lead to severe injuries.
