rod” or “improve” the speed of the bike
are dangerous to the rider. Use only
specified manufacturer drive-assist
service and replacement parts.
Tips for Getting the Most
Range from Your Battery
The drive is an auxiliary motor and
works most efficiently at a cadence of
50-80 crank revolutions/minute. You can
get the most mileage out of a new and
fully charged battery.
Because the range is dependent on
a variety of factors such as the level of
assistance, speed, shifting behavior, tires
and tire pressure, age and condition of
the rechargeable battery, route profile
and conditions, headwind and ambient
temperature as well as the weight of
the e-bike, rider and luggage, it is not
possible to accurately predict the range
before setting off or during a ride.
In general however, the higher the
power mode, more resistance created
by inclines, terrain, wind and weight on
the e-bike, and frequent stopping and
starting will consume more energy and
will reduce the range of the battery.
To improve range from your battery:
•
Shift to a lower or higher gear before
inclines and descents to avoid ex-
cessively fast or slow cadences.
•
Operate the gear shifting system as
if you were riding without assistance.
•
Use the lower gears in your gear
shifting system on inclines, in head-
winds and with heavy loads.
•
When starting from a complete stop,
begin in the lowest gear.
•
Always ride in a low gear and pedal
as hard as possible to use less bat-
tery power.
•
Shift down to a lower gear before
reaching an incline.
•
Look ahead and anticipate while rid-
ing so that you can avoid unneces-
sary stops.
•
Where possible, ride on surfaced
roads and paths.
•
Do not transport unnecessary loads.
•
Take care of the e-bike on a regular
basis and check the tire pressure
regularly.
•
Observe maintenance periods.
DRIVE-ASSIST SYSTEM
CONTINUED
Allow the drive system and recharge-
able battery to cool before touching to
prevent risk of being burned.
WARNING
Do not leave the battery connected to
the charger for extended periods after
the battery is charged.
