Personal protective equipment
It is recommended that you wear a suitable
cycling helmet, sturdy footwear and typical, close-
fitting, reflective sports clothing.
Crash caused by poor road conditions
Loose objects, such as branches and twigs, may
become caught in the wheels and cause a crash
with injuries.
Be aware of the road conditions.
Ride slowly and brake in good time.
The
tyres
may slip on wet roads. In wet conditions
you must also expect a longer braking distance.
The braking sensation differs from the usual
sensation. This can cause loss of control or a
crash, which may result in injuries.
Ride slowly and brake in good time when it is
raining.
Crash caused by soiling
Thick dirt can impair S pedelec functions, such as
braking. This may cause a crash with injuries.
Remove coarse soiling before riding.
Notice
Heat or direct sunlight can cause the
tyre pressure
to increase above the permitted maximum
pressure. This can destroy the
tyres
.
Never park the S pedelec in the sun.
On hot days, regularly check the
tyre pressure
and adjust it as necessary.
When riding downhill, high speeds may be
reached. The S pedelec is only designed to
exceed a speed of 25 km/h for short intervals.
The
tyres
in particular can fail if exposed to a
continuous load.
Use the brakes to decelerate the S pedelec
if you reach speeds greater than 25 km/h.
CAUTION
!
Notice
Moisture penetrating at low temperatures may
impair individual functions due to the open
structural design.
Keep the S pedelec dry and free from frost at
all times.
If the S pedelec is to be used at temperatures
below 3 °C, the specialist dealer must carry
out an inspection and prepare it for winter use.
Off-road riding subjects the joints in the arms to
severe strain. Take a break from riding every
30 to 90 minutes, depending on the road surface
conditions and your physical fitness
