notes on riding with the eBike system
When does the eBike drive operate?
The eBike drive supports you when riding, as long as you
step into the pedals. Without pedaling, there is no assi-
stance. The motor output always depends on the amount
of your pedaling power.
When applying less pedaling power, the assistance or support
will be lower than when applying a lot of pedaling power.
This applies independent of the assistance level.
The eBike drive automatically switches off at speeds in excess
of 25 km/h. When the speed falls below 25 km/h, the drive
is automatically available again. an exception applies for
the push-assistance function, in which the eBike can be
pushed at low speed without pedaling. The eBike can also
be ridden as a normal bicycle without assistance at any
time, by either switching off the eBike system or setting
the assistance level to “oFF”. The same applies when the
battery pack is empty.
Interaction of the eBike system with the Bicycle Gears
The bicycle gears should be used as with a normal bicycle,
even with eBike drive (please observe the operating instruc-
tions of your eBike).
Independent of the type of gearing, it is recommended to
briefly interrupt the pedaling while changing gears. This
makes changing gears easier and reduces the wear of the
drive train.
By selecting the right gear, you can increase the speed and
range with the same pedaling effort.
Gathering first experience
It is recommended to gather first experience with the eBike
away from roads with heavy traffic.
Try out the different assistance levels. as soon as you feel
safe, you can participate in traffic with the eBike as with
any other bicycle.
Test the operating range of your eBike under different condi-
tions before planning longer and more challenging rides.
