1 Safety information
• Always use a suitable bicycle helmet
and wear it correctly.
• Observe the applicable trac regula-
tions.
• Bear in mind that the Pedelec motor can
heat up on long ascents. Be carel not
to touch it with your hands, feet or legs.
You could burn yourself.
• If risk-ee operation of your Pedelec
cannot be assumed, take it out of op-
eration and make sure it cannot be used
until you have it checked by a special-
ist cycle shop. Risk-ee operation is
no longer possible if live parts or the
rechargeable battery show signs of
damage.
• Keep children away om electrical ap-
pliances. If children are present, keep
a close eye on them, especially if there
is a possibility they could insert objects
into the appliance through apertures in
the housing. This poses the danger of
fatal electric shock.
• When charging the battery, make abso-
lutely sure the charger is correctly sup-
ported on its four feet. It must not be
covered when in operation. It must be
possible for the heat produced to dis-
sipate via the surrounding ventilation
slots on the top and bottom.
• If you are transporting your Pedelec
by car, remove the battery beforehand.
Transport the battery in a suitable
transport container separately om the
Pedelec.
2 Legal principles

all other bikes, must comply with certain
regulations, the Road Trac Licensing
Regulations (StVZO) in Germany for exam-
ple. Please observe the relevant explana-
tions and general information provided in
the General User Manual.
