By Train / By Public Transport

STEVENS pedelecs can be transported like conventional bicycles by public trans-

port.

Taking bicycles or pedelecs with you by public transport is permitted in general,

the regulations applicable in the cities differ, however. In some regions e.g. you are

only allowed to travel with your STEVENS pedelec during off-peak hours and with an

additional bicycle ticket. Inform yourself in time about the regulations of carrying the

bicycle before you start the trip!

Some regional trains have special spaces for the storage of bicycles and other

things. This is an option to take your STEVENS pedelec with you. They are often at

the front or end of a train and marked with a bicycle sign.

In Germany e.g. you always need to pre-book a bicycle space on the IC/EC-trains

of Deutsche Bahn. This reservation must be made one day prior to your journey at

the latest.

When taking a high-speed train check whether you can take your pedelec or

bicycle with you.

By Plane

If you intend to take your STEVENS pedelec by plane or to dispatch it with a

forwarding agent, you have to observe particular packing and labelling requirements

for rechargeable batteries. Contact an expert for hazardous material or a forwarding

agent in time.

Note:

Contact the airline you intend to travel with in time and inform yourself about the

conditions and the possibilities of taking your STEVENS pedelec with you.

Note:

If necessary, inform

yourself about the

laws and regulations

concerning bicycle/

pedelec transport in

the countries that you

intend to transit during

your journey. The laws

and regulations differ,

e.g. with regard to the

marking.

Note:

If the rechargeable

battery of your STEVENS

pedelec is mounted

to the down tube or to

the pannier rack, you

can remove the battery

before boarding and

disembarking.

Note:

Before you start your trip

inform yourself in time

about the conditions

of carriage and also

observe the regulations

and rules about bicycle

transport in the coun-

tries through which you

intend to travel.

Servicing and Maintenance

Your STEVENS dealer will have assembled and adjusted your STEVENS pedelec

ready for use when you come to collect it. Nevertheless, your STEVENS pedelec

needs regular servicing. Have your local STEVENS dealer do the scheduled mainte-

nance work. This is the only way to ensure that all components function safely and

reliably for many miles.

In addition, the dealer can install updates for the systems by means of which

new energy saving riding programs can be loaded allowing longer ranges.

The bicycle will be due for its ﬁrst service after 100 to 300 kilometres (60 to 180

miles), three to six weeks or 5 to 15 hours of initial use. The bedding in phase typ-

ically involves safety-relevant bolted connections and spokes slightly losing tension

or gears becoming out of adjustment, so there is every reason to have your dealer

service the STEVENS pedelec at this stage. This bedding and settling in process

is unavoidable. Therefore, remember to make an appointment with your STEVENS

dealer for the ﬁrst service of your new STEVENS pedelec. The ﬁrst service is very

important for both functioning and durability of your STEVENS pedelec.

Keep in mind that the drive assistance can increase the wearing. This applies to

the rear wheel and in the case of middle motors to the chain.

The intended use of the STEVENS pedelec includes regular servicing and the

replacement of worn out parts in time, e.g. chains, brake pads or Bowden and brake

cables, and therefore has an inﬂuence on the warranty and the guarantee, as well.

It is advisable to have your STEVENS pedelec serviced regularly by your STEVENS

dealer after the bedding in phase. If your bicycle does harder service, because you

ride a great deal on poor road surfaces, it will require correspondingly shorter ser-

vice periods. The off-season during the winter months is a very good time to take

your STEVENS pedelec to your STEVENS dealer for the annual inspection, as they

will have plenty of time for you and for servicing.

Danger:

Servicing and repairs

are jobs best left to

your STEVENS dealer. If

you have your bicycle

serviced by anyone else

than an expert, you run

the risk that parts of

your STEVENS pedelec

will fail. Risk of accident!

When working on your

STEVENS pedelec re-

strict yourself to jobs for

which you are equipped

e.g. with a torque

wrench including bits

and have the necessary

knowledge.

Note:

For your own safety, bring your STEVENS pedelec to your STEVENS dealer for its ﬁrst

service after 100 to 300 kilometres (60 to 180 miles), 5 to 15 hours of initial use or

three to six weeks, at the very latest, however, after three months.

Caution:

Keep in mind that the auxiliary drive may lead to partly higher wear than you are

used to. This applies in particular to the brakes and the tyres and in the case of

bottom bracket drives to the chain and the sprockets.

Caution:

Be sure to only use

original spare parts for

servicing and repair. In

the case of non-obser-

vance the CE marking

expires and the warranty

is rendered void. Ask

your STEVENS dealer for

advice.
