Safety information
WARNING
Do not let yourself become distracted by the display. If you do not ful-
ly concentrate on the traffic, you risk being involved in a serious acci-
dent or fall with fatal consequences.
Do not attempt any modifications to the drive unit. For example, it is
not permitted to raise the cut-off speed above 20 mph. Furthermore,
the speed of the push assistance must not exceed 3,7 mph. Pedelecs
with modified drive power may no longer comply with the legal
requirements of their relevant country. You may be liable to
prosecution if you ride on public roads with a “tuned” pedelec. There
is also the risk of a technical failure. Modified bikes of this type are
excluded from the warranty and guarantee.
Never attempt to modify the system yourself, as this can cause prob-
lems with the system's operation.
CAUTION
Do not open the drive unit. There is a risk of electric shock. It will also
invalidate any warranty claim. Only have repairs to the drive unit car-
ried out by trained cycle dealers.
Do not touch the motor after riding at full load. It can become very
hot. You could burn yourself if you touch it.
