even while riding.
You can choose between the following assistance levels:
•

you cannot switch on the walk assistance.
•
ECO

•

” button on the control unit until the desired assistance level (b) is shown
on the display. To reduce the assistance level, press the “
-
“ button. The selected motor power is displayed in the
indicator. The maximum motor output depends on the selected assistance level.
When the on-board computer is removed from the holder, the last displayed assistance level is stored, the display of
the motor output remains blank.
5.2.5 Interaction of the e-bike system with bicycle gears
Even with an e-bike drive system, the bicycle gears should be used as with a normal bicycle.
Independent of the type of gearing, it is recommended to briefly stop pedalling while changing gears. This makes
shifting easier and reduces the wear of the drivetrain.
By selecting the right gear, you can increase speed and range with the same pedalling effort. For this reason, follow the
shift recommendations
(a). If indication
is displayed, you should shift to a higher gear with lower cadence. If
indication
is displayed, you should select a lower gear with high cadence.
5.2.6 Switching bike lights on/off
You can use the
button on the on-board computer to
simultaneously switch both front and rear light on and off. When
the lights are switched on, “Lights on” appears, and when the lights
are switched off, “Lights off” appears for approx. 1 sec in the text
indicator of the computer.
The light symbol
is displayed when the light is on.
Switching the bike lights on and off has no effect on the backlight of
the display.
