Switching the Push-assistance mode On/Off
The push-assistance feature makes it easier to push the
eBike. The speed in this function depends on the set gear and
cannot exceed 6 km/h (max.). The lower the set gear, the low-
er the speed in the push-assistance function (at full output).
 The push-assistance function may only be used when
pushing the eBike. Danger of injury when the wheels of
the eBike do not have ground contact while using the push-
assistance function.
To activate the push-assistance function, briefly press but-
ton "WALK" on your on-board computer. After activation,
press button "+" within 3 s and keep it pressed. The eBike
drive is switched on.
Note: The push assistance cannot be activated in the "OFF"
assistance level.
The push assistance is switched off as soon as one of the fol-
lowing occurs:
– you release button "+",
– the wheels of the eBike are blocked (e.g. by actuating the
brakes or impacting against an obstacle),
– the speed exceeds 6 km/h.
Note: On some systems the push-assistance function can be
started directly by pressing the "WALK" button.
Back-pedalling function (optional)
For bikes with back-pedalling function, the pedals rotate
when the push aid is switched on. If the rotating pedals are
blocked, the push aid switches off.
Switching bike lights on/off
In the version which has the bike lights powered by the eBike
system, the front and rear lights can be switched on and off at
the same time via the on-board computer.
Notes on Riding with the eBike System
When does the eBike Drive Unit Operate?
The eBike drive unit assists you when riding, as long as you
step into the pedals. Without pedaling, there is no assistance.
The motor output always depends on the amount of your ped-
aling power.
When applying less pedaling power, the assistance or support
will be lower than when applying a lot of pedaling power. This
applies independent of the assistance Level.
The eBike drive automatically switches off at speeds in excess
of 25 km/h. When the speed falls below 25 km/h, the drive is
automatically available again.
An exception applies to the push-assistance function, in which
the eBike can be pushed at low speed without pedalling. The
pedals may also rotate when the push assistance is used.
The eBike can also be ridden as a normal bicycle without as-
sistance at any time, by either switching off the eBike system
or setting the assistance level to "OFF". The same applies
when the battery pack is empty.

Interaction of the eBike System with the Bicycle Gears
The bicycle gears should be used as with a normal bicycle,
even with eBike motor assistance (please observe the operat-
ing instructions of your eBike).
Independent of the type of gearing, it is recommended to
briefly interrupt the pedaling while changing gears. This
makes changing gears easier and reduces the wear of the
drive train.
By selecting the right gear, you can increase the speed and
range with the same pedaling effort.
Gathering First Experience
It is recommended to gather first experience with the eBike
away from roads with heavy traffic.
Test the various assistance levels. Start with the lowest assis-
tance level. As soon as you feel confident, you can ride your
eBike in traffic like any other bike.
Test the operating range of your eBike under different condi-
tions before planning longer and more challenging rides.
Influences on the Operating Range
The range is affected by a number of factors, such as:
– Assistance level
– Speed
– Gear changing behaviour
– Tyre type and tyre pressure
– Age and condition of the battery
– Route profile (gradients) and conditions (road surface)
– Headwind and ambient temperature
– Weight of eBike, driver and luggage.
For this reason, it is not possible to precisely predict the
range before and during a trip. General rules:
– With the same assistance level on the eBike drive: The less
energy you need to exert in order to reach a certain speed
(e.g. by changing gears optimally), the less energy the
eBike drive will consume and the higher the range per bat-
tery charge will be.
– The higher the assistance level under otherwise same con-
ditions, the lower the range.
Careful Handling of the eBike
Please observe the operating and storage temperatures of the
eBike components. Protect the drive unit, on-board computer
and battery against extreme temperatures (e.g. from intense
sunlight without adequate ventilation). The components (es-
pecially the battery pack) can become damaged through ex-
treme temperatures.
