General safety information
Comply with the safety and user instructions at the start of the following
sections.
DANGER
We discourage allowing children under the age of 14 years to ride
pedelecs. They may not be able to cope with the speed. Serious
accidents and falls might result.
Wear a cycle helmet. While there is no legal obligation to wear one,
you should always wear a suitable cycle helmet for your own safety. A
cycle helmet can protect you from severe injuries. Make sure that the
helmet fits properly.
Keep your hands and other body parts and clothing away from moving
parts, otherwise you can become ensnared, have a serious fall and
injure yourself.
Adapt your riding style to the prevailing traffic conditions, otherwise
you could fall off and involve yourself and others in a serious
accident. Take into consideration the longer braking distances needed
on wet or icy roads. Think ahead, anticipating the actions of other
road users and reduce your speed. Avoid sudden jerky movements of
the handlebars and braking actions. Dismount if you ever feel unsafe.
Only use the bicycle for its intended purpose

otherwise component failure may result. If this happens whilst
you are cycling, you could injure yourself very seriously or even die.
DANGER
Inspect your pedelec before every trip, and after each time it has been
transported anywhere or has been left unattended

trip Page EN-31
. Components might fail if wear and damage are not
detected early enough. If this happens whilst you are cycling, you
could injure yourself very seriously or even die. The additional power
means higher loads are applied to wearing parts on a pedelec than
on a normal cycle. Replace any worn, damaged or bent components
before using the bike again.
Do not exceed the total weight of the pedelec, because it can lead to
the fracture or failure of safety-relevant parts

. If this happens while you are riding the bike, it can lead to
severe falls – with fatal consequences.

components. We
recommend asking your cycle dealer to assemble and adjust the bike.
Otherwise, components could become loose due to a faulty assembly.
If this happens whilst you are cycling, you could injure yourself very
seriously or even die. If you do have to tighten something yourself,

(strict adherence to which is a requirement).
Only use original replacement parts. Replacement parts from other
manufacturers can impair the function of your pedelec. Serious acci-
dents can result.
