2.8. Bedding in the disc brakes
When delivered, your brake system initially exhibits only a weak braking action
as the surfaces of brake disc and brake pads have not yet been bedded in.
For your new pedelec, as well as following replacement of brake disc and brake
pads, the disc brakes should be bedded in as follows:
• Accelerate the vehicle to approx. 25 km/h
• Decelerate to a standstill using both brakes (avoid locking of the brakes)
• Repeat this procedure until a satisfactory improvement in braking action
is effected. Repeat this procedure according to brake manufacturer
Tektro 30-40 times.
In an unloaded conditi on, the axle load is minimal on the front wheels.
The front wheels are blocked extremely quickly with heavy front braking.
Front wheels blocked in curves will lead to understeer, the bike slides
forwards in a direct line.
-> The rear brake should be predominantly applied in an unloaded
conditi on and the front brakes applied only tentati vely.

3.1. Checking the tyres
Air pressure:
Schwalbe prescribes 2-4 bar as the permissible pressure range for both tyres.
With a maximum cargo load of 240 kg, all 3 tyres should be inflated to 4 bar.
The pressure may be reduced for lighter loads.
We recommend that you check the pressure weekly as continuous
pressure loss is inevitable for bicycle inner tubes.
If the tyre pressure is too low, the risk of snakebite punctures increases.
The result of a snakebite puncture is a fl at tyre.
A tyre damaged by cracks or entrenched foreign objects may lead to a
loss of pressure. There is a risk of accident!
-> Check for cracks or foreign objects in the tyre.
Initial set-up
2.4. Switching the drive on/off
Press the On / Off button on the Purion to
switch on the system.
Alternatively, you can also turn on the
drive by pressing the button on the
battery. This method also works if the
button cell in the Purion is empty.
2.5. Adjusting the assistance level
To increase the assistance level, press the „+“
button on the Purion until the desired assistance
level appears in the display.
To reduce the assistance, press the „–“ button
2.6. Switching the light on/off
Hold the „+“ butt on of the Purion pressed
(1 to 2.5 seconds) until the light is switched on.
Hold the „+“ butt on of the Purion pressed longer
(more than 2.5 seconds) to switch off the light.
2.7. Push-assistance
The push-assistance helps you to push the
pedelec a maximum 6 km/h (the highest ratio
of the NuVinci gear hub, otherwise accordingly
slower). This is activated by successively pressing
the „Walk butt on“
and the „+“ button
.
