VI User Manual Groove Pedelec
2 Legal principles
The essential idea behind the Pedelec is not only to be
able to cover greater distances more quickly, but also
more comfortably. You can choose to relax and let the bike
do the work, exert yourself more physically, or simply get
from A to B as fast as possible. You can decide this your-
self by choosing an appropriate assist level.
This gives you more confidence on the road, as the pow-
erful acceleration gives you more control and a greater
degree of security. Your Pedelec provides you with power
assistance, the level of which you can vary at the control
panel.
In some EU countries, the Pedelec, like all other bikes,
must comply with certain regulations, the Road Traffic
Licensing Regulations (StVZO) in Germany for example.
Please observe the relevant explanations and general
information provided in the General User Manual.
These statutory requirements apply for a Pedelec:
•
The motor is designed only to provide pedalling as-
sistance, i.e. it can only "assist" the rider when he/
she turns the pedals.
•
The average motor output must not exceed 250 W.
•
As the speed increases, the rate at which the motor
output reduces must also increase more intensely.
•
The motor must switch off once the bike reaches a
speed of 25 km/h.
2.1 Meaning for the rider
•
You do not legally have to wear a helmet. In the
interest of your own safety, however, you should
never
ride without a helmet.
•
You do not legally have to have a driving license
(unless you own a model with pushing assistance,
➠
Chapter 2.2 “Pushing assistance”
).
•
You do not legally have to have insurance.
•
No age restriction applies for a Pedelec.
•
The regulations governing the use of cycle paths
are the same as for normal bikes.
These regulations apply to you wherever you are in the
European Union. It is possible that different regulations
exist in other countries, also inside the EU in individual
cases. Before using your Pedelec abroad, find out about
the legal situation in the relevant country.
2.2 Pushing assistance
Your Pedelec is available in a version with or without push-
ing assistance.
Button for pushing assistance
The pushing assistance moves the Pedelec slowly (at a
maximum speed of 6 km/h) without you having to turn the
pedals, e.g. if you are manoeuvring in a tight space or are
pushing your Pedelec out of a basement garage.
If you were born after 01. 04. 1965, you will need a moped
test certificate for the version with pushing assistance. If
you already have another type of driving licence, this au-
tomatically includes the moped test certificate.
The pushing assistance is not suitable for use as starting
assistance.
