Before the first ride
Before going on your first ride, following points should be considered:
-
Let your retailer, from whom you have purchased the bicycle, make the bike ready to use.
-
Please have your retailer explain to you and your child all the important functions of the bicycle components and the Pedelec-System. Also on how
to give instructions for safe operation and use. This should be done on the purchased bike and completed with a test ride.
-
The main function in this case, inter alia, the correct sitting position for safe control of the bike, function of brakes, function of shifting system, the
activation of the Pedelec-System, turning on and selecting levels of support and e. g. explanation of further features of the display.
-
You should practice dealing with such a Pedelec before your first ride in public areas. Suitable hereto are from traffic averted, inter alia, low traffic
areas, such as untraveled large parking lots and private properties.
-
Following circumstances must especially be noted due to the high torque of the drive system:
o
When starting up, the engine performance in high levels of support can start abruptly. Take into account, that your child avoids direct force
applied on the pedals, if he or she is not securely seated on the bike or repels to start with only one leg.
o
Make sure your child operates the EPAC brakes while getting up, for his or her own safety, to prevent an accidental riding off.
For first ride / during each ride
-
If your child performs the test ride or practices using the bicycle or first ride, the child should have been there receiving instructions from the retailer
or receive the same instruction of the same amount from an adult before the first ride.
-
It is especially to inform about the function of the Pedelec-System and its expected riding behavior.
-
Children are only allowed to use such Pedelec under adult supervision.
