III Before the first ride

Only use the E-Bike if you are sure that it is working properly, all parts are fully functional and all screws are tightened to the correct torque.

Familiarise yourself with the markings on your e-bike. Do not remove the barcode sticker and the type plate. They contain important information about your E-bike >> see original general operating instructions Chapter 10.4 Barcode sticker and Chapter 10.5 Type plate.

Only use the E-Bike in accordance with our instructions. Otherwise, components may fail and you could be seriously injured.

Comply with the restrictions of the specified utilisation class. You can find out which utilisation class your E-bike is approved for by looking at the graphic on the E-bike frame >> see original general operating instructions Chapter 10.7 Intended use.

Do not exceed the permissible total weight (total weight=E-bike weight + rider weight + payload + trailer) >> see original general operating instructions 12. permissible total weight.

Observe our specifications for transporting people and loads >> see original General User Manual Chapter 31. Luggage.

Do not exceed the load capacity of the front wheel and rear wheel luggage carriers. The maximum load capacity is engraved on the pannier rack >> see the original General User Manual, Chapter 30. Pannier rack.

It is not permitted to mount child seats on luggage carriers of E-bikes with a load capacity of less than 27 kg. The use of child seats with the MIK HD system may be permitted on our MIK HD luggage carriers. If you have any questions in this regard, please contact your specialist dealer or the child seat manufacturer.

Do not make any changes to the drive system of the E-Bike. If the cut-off speed exceeds 25 km/h and/or the speed of the pushing aid exceeds 6 km/h, your E-bike will be subject to registration and insurance >> see original operating instructions General Chapter 7 Legal requirements for participation in road traffic.

Do not exceed the period of use of the components.

Legal requirements for participation in road traffic.

Observe the requirements of the legislator, the transport companies and the operating instructions for E-bike transport. Remove the battery before transporting the E-bike >> see the original General User Manual, Chapter 32 Transporting the bike.

Familiarise yourself with the operation of quick-releases. The quick-releases must be correctly closed. If you are not sure, ask your specialist dealer to show you how to use them >> see the original General User Manual, Chapter 27 Wheels and Chapter 17.1.2 Fastening with quick release.

The seat post must be at least 10 cm deep in the seat tube. The minimum insertion depth of 10 cm also applies if lower minimum insertion depths are specified in the component instructions or on the seat post itself.

Familiarise yourself initially with the riding and braking behaviour as well as the electric assistance modes and the pushing aid (if available), especially with different loads, wet conditions and loose surfaces >> see original operating instructions General Chapter 14 Before your first ride and >> original operating instructions E-bike Chapter Drive Unit - Operation and Chapter Display - Pushing aid.

If you have purchased an E-Bike with disc brakes, make sure that the brakes are applied before the first long ride. Braking serves to achieve optimum braking performance and minimise unpleasant noises.

IV. Before each journey >> see original operating instructions General Chapter 15 Before each journey.

Check the following in particular before every ride:

Frame, fork, handlebar/stem unit, seat post, saddle and drive unit for possible damage,

the correct function of brakes, steering, drive unit and lights,

the tight fit of the handlebars, stem, seat post, saddle, wheels, mudguard, quick-release levers and pedals, and

the tyre pressure. The tyre pressure must neither be exceeded nor fallen short of.

In the event of damage (e.g. bent components, cracks, scoring and colour changes in high-stress areas) and malfunctions, have the E-bike repaired by your specialist dealer and have defective components replaced before using it again.

V. After the ride

Be careful not to burn yourself when touching heated components (e.g. brake discs, drive unit, headlights).

VI Charging and using the battery >> see original E-Bike operating instructions, Battery chapter

Only use undamaged and unmodified batteries and chargers.

Observe the specifications for charging and using the battery, in particular with regard to the ambient temperature and the location of the charging process.

VII Cleaning >> see original operating instructions General 34 Cleaning the bike and its components

Do not clean the E-Bike and its components with a high-pressure cleaner.

Never clamp the saddle in the bends of the saddle frame, but always in the straight area. Only move the saddle within the straight area and within the marking. Turn the clamping bolts straight and fully into the nuts >> see original operating instructions General Chapter 18. Adjusting the saddle position and tilt.

Contact your specialist dealer to adjust the suspension elements.

Do not open the electronic components.

Only use original spare parts when replacing components and wearing parts. In addition to original spare parts, compatible parts expressly authorised by us may also be used. Your specialist dealer can help you if you have any questions.

IX. Maintenance intervals >> see original operating instructions General 39. maintenance intervals

Have the E-Bike checked and serviced regularly by a specialist dealer in accordance with our specifications in order to avoid hazards (e.g. due to wear and tear).

The first maintenance interval should take place at the latest after 100 kilometres or after six weeks from the date of purchase. The next maintenance should then be carried out every 1000 kilometres or annually.

Replace the seat post after 14000 kilometres (maintenance interval 8), unless the seat post manufacturer specifies a different interval in its instructions. The components must be replaced regardless of the material and whether a defect, cracks or damage can be seen from the outside. If the seatpost is not replaced in good time, it can break and cause you to fall heavily.
