ADDITIoNAL INFoRMATIoN “BEFoRE EVERY RIDE” WITH
YoUR WHEELER PEDELEC
1. Are the connections of the rechargeable battery, the control ele-
ment on the handlebars and the drive system properly plugged in
(a)
?
You can find further information in the chapters
“inserting and
removing the battery”
and
“operating the bionx propulsion
System”
in your BionX system operating instructions.
2. Is your battery fully charged
(b)
?
Remember to fully recharge the battery after each longer ride
(e.g. less than 50% charged). Modern lithium-ion batteries have
no memory effect. However, it does not matter if your WHEELER
pedelec is left as it is for a short time (e.g. overnight) when less
than 50% charged. However, you should not wait until the battery
is fully discharged!
For more information see the chapter
“useful information for
proper handling of the battery”
and the chapter
“handling and
charging the battery”
in your BionX system operating instruc-
tions.
3. Does the display on the control element and the cycle computer on
the handlebars show all the values
(c)
?
Are there any error messages or warnings on the display? Check
the values are correct before every ride. Do not set off on your
WHEELER pedelec under any circumstances if the control element
shows a warning.
You can find further information in the chapter
“operating the
bionx propulsion System”
in your BionX system operating in-
structions.
4. Is the battery tight in its holder and properly locked up
(d)
? Never
set off with a loose and unlocked battery.
You can find further information in the chapter
“inserting and re-
moving the battery”
in your BionX system operating instructions.
after an accident
1. Check whether the wheels are still firmly fixed in the drop-outs and
whether the rims are still centred with respect to the frame or fork
(e)
. Spin the wheels and observe the gap either between brake
pads and rim sides or between frame and tyre. If the width of the
gap changes markedly and you have no way to true the rim where
you are, you will need to open the rim brake a little so that the rim
can run between the brake pads without touching them. Please
note that in this case the brakes may not act as powerfully as you
are used to.
You can find further information in the chapters
“brake System”
,
“how to use Quick-releases and thru axles”
and
“wheels
and tyre equipment”
and in the instructions from the parts man-
ufacturers, which you can find on the enclosed CD.
2. Check that handlebars and stem are neither bent nor broken and
that they are level and upright
(f)
. Make sure the stem is firmly
fixed on the fork by trying to turn the handlebars relative to the front
wheel. Briefly lean on the brake levers to make sure the handlebars
are firmly fixed in the stem
(g)
. Realign the components, if neces-
sary, and carefully tighten the bolts to ensure reliable clamping of
the components. The maximum torque values are printed directly
on the components or specified in the enclosed operating instruc-
tions.
You can find further information in the chapters
“adjusting the
wheeler bicycle to the rider”
and
“headset”
and in the in-
structions from the parts manufacturers, which you can find on the
enclosed CD.
3. Check whether the chain still runs on the chainrings and the
sprockets. If your WHEELER bicycle fell over to the chain side,
verify the proper functioning of the gears. Ask somebody to lift the
WHEELER bicycle by the saddle and carefully shift through all the
gears. Pay particular attention when shifting to the small gears and
make sure the rear derailleur does not get too close to the spokes
as the chain climbs onto the larger sprockets
