sure that even if you have been cycling (bicycle or

information. Especially e-bike technology has de-
veloped at a rapid pace during recent years. There-
fore, before setting off on your new Velo de Ville

“Before
the FIRST ride with your Velo de Ville EPAC”
.
To have as much fun as possible during cycling, be

Even a manual as big as an encyclopaedia could
not describe any possible combination of pedelec
models and components or parts on the market.
Therefore, these operating instructions togeth-
er with the system instructions of the drive sys-
tem manufacturer and your general Velo de Ville
user manual focus on your newly purchased
Velo de Ville EPAC and standard components
and
provide useful information and warnings.
When doing any adjusting and servicing, be aware
that the detailed instructions provided in your
manual only refer to this EPAC. The information
included here is not applicable to any other EPAC
or e-bike type. As bicycles come in a wide variety
of designs with frequent model changes, the de-
scribed operations may require complementary
information. Be sure to also observe the operating
instructions of the component suppliers that you
received from your Velo de Ville dealer.
Be aware that these instructions may require fur-
ther explanation, depending on the experience
and/or skills of the person doing the work. For
some jobs you may require additional (special)
tools or supplementary instructions. This manual
cannot teach you the skills of a bicycle mechanic. If
you have the slightest doubt ask your Velo de Ville
dealer.
Always ride carefully on public roads and observe
the traffic rules so as not to endanger yourself or
others.
