IMPORTANT ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
or special information on using the S-Pe-
delec.
If children are present, keep a close eye on them,
especially if there is a possibility they could insert
objects into the motor through apertures in the
housing. This poses the danger of fatal electric
shock.
If you have reason to suspect a safety problem
with your Pedelec, do not ride it, and make sure
nobody else can use it until you have it checked by
a specialist cycle shop. Safe use is not possible if
electrical components or the battery shows signs
of damage.
Never ride with no hands! This poses an acute risk
of falling.
Take the battery out of the S-Pedelec before begin-
ning work on the S-Pedelec.
Observe the maximum permitted gross weight of
your S-Pedelec, as this could otherwise lead to
breakage or failure of safety-relevant components
Chapter 12 “Technical data”.
It is not permitted to carry children in a bike
trailer pulled by an S-Pedelec. Trailers themselves
are permitted, provided the trailer coupling used
has the national type approval (ABE) required for
motor vehicles.
If you wish to make any adjustments to the ride
characteristics of your S-Pedelec, please consult
your specialist cycle shop.
