Operation
Crash caused by material fatigue
Intensive use can cause material fatigue. A com-
ponent may suddenly fail in case of material
fatigue. This may cause a crash with injuries.
Remove the pedelec from service immediately
if there are any signs of material fatigue. Have
your specialist dealer inspect the component.
Arrange the mandatory inspection appoint-
ments with your specialist dealer on a regular
basis. During the major inspection, the spe-
cialist dealer will inspect the pedelec for any
signs of material fatigue on the frame, fork,
suspension element mountings (if there are
any) and components made of composite
materials.
Carbon becomes brittle when exposed to heat
radiation such as heating. This can cause the car-
bon part to break and result in a crash with inju-
ries.
Never expose carbon components parts on the
pedelec to strong sources of heat.
Crash caused by poor road conditions
Loose objects, such as branches and twigs, may
become caught in the wheels and cause a crash
with injuries.
Be aware of the road conditions.
Ride slowly and brake in good time.
The
tyres
may slip on wet roads. In wet conditions
you must also expect a longer braking distance.
The braking sensation differs from the usual sen-
sation. This can cause loss of control or a crash,
which may result in injuries.
Ride slowly and brake in good time when it is
raining.
CAUTION
!
Notice
Heat or direct sunlight can cause the
tyre pressure
to increase above the permitted maximum pres-
sure. This can destroy the
tyres
.
Park pedelec in the shade.
On hot days, regularly check the
tyre pressure
and adjust it as necessary.
When riding downhill, high speeds may be
reached. The pedelec is only designed to exceed
a speed of 25 km/h for short intervals. The
tyres
in particular can fail if exposed to a continuous
load.
Use the brakes to decelerate the pedelec if you
reach speeds greater than 25 km/h.
Moisture penetrating at low temperatures may
impair individual functions due to the open struc-
tural design.
Always keep the pedelec dry and free from
frost.
If the pedelec is used at temperatures below
3 °C, the specialist dealer must perform a
major inspection beforehand and prepare it for
winter use.
Off-road riding subjects the joints in the arms to
severe strain.
Take a break from riding every 30 to
90 minutes, depending on the road surface
conditions and your physical fitness.
