Note: The available modes are dependent on the re-
spective drive unit.
The designations and configuration of the assistance levels can
be preconfigured by the manufacturer and selected by the bicy-
cle retailer.
Adjusting the assistance level
The assistance levels can be adjusted within certain
parameters using the eBike Flow app. You therefore
have the option of adjusting your eBike to your per-
sonal requirements.
Creating a mode that is totally your own is not possi-
ble. You can only adjust the modes that have been en-
abled on your system by the manufacturer or the
dealer. This may even be fewer than 4 modes.
It may also be the case that a mode cannot be ad-
justed due to restrictions in your country.
The following parameters are available to you for ad-
justment:
– Support in relation to the basic value of the mode
(within the legal specifications)
– Response behavior of the drive
– Throttling down speed (within the legal specifica-
tions)
– Maximum torque (within the framework of the drive
limits)
Note: Please ensure that your changed mode retains
the position, name and color on all on-board comput-
ers and operating elements.
Interaction of the drive unit with the gear-
shifting
You should shift through gears on an eBike in the
same manner as when using a normal bicycle (ob-
serve the operating instructions of your eBike with re-
gard to this point).
Irrespective of the type of gear shifting, it is advisable
that you briefly reduce the pressure on the pedals
when changing gear. This will aid gear shifting and re-
duce wear on the powertrain.
By selecting the correct gear, you can increase your
speed and range while applying the same amount of
force.

Switching the push assistance on/off

tailer.
