It is practically impossible to provide absolute<br />
data regarding the range as various factors<br />
influence the assistance performance. To begin<br />
with, the battery must be optimally charged.<br />
This can be ensured by using the original<br />
charger, through sufficient charging time, the<br />
age of the battery as well as its continuous<br />
maintenance.<br />
If all these factors are favorable, i.e. the<br />
operating temperature is also between 5 and 35<br />
°C and a full charge has taken place, then 37V<br />
x 8.8Ah = 325 Wh of stored energy should be<br />
available to begin driving.<br />
Then try the same in the reverse direction. This<br />
way you will learn the functioning of the gear.<br />
Do not ever change gear when the cycle is<br />
stationary or during reverse pedalling. Select<br />
your gear transmission ratio in front according<br />
to the terrain and exercise additional control<br />
with the rear sprocket. The chain should not<br />
run crosswise, i.e., with very steep inclination,<br />
because otherwise chain and gear wheel will<br />
wear out fast. Use the derailleur as illustrated in<br />
Figure.<br />
With the battery’s increasing age, the maximum<br />
amount of stored energy can sink by a third and<br />
in so doing the running distance too.<br />
On the whole, lithium-ion batteries can<br />
experience up to 500 full charge cycles, but<br />
through aging the capacity will sink in due<br />
course down to 85 - 65 %.<br />
GB<br />
Providing good maintenance is taken, then a<br />
life expectancy of approximately 3 – 5 years<br />
is possible. The capacity will decrease slowly<br />
but steadily.<br />
General operation<br />
Gear changing<br />
If you are not yet familiar with a gear change,<br />
practice handling your new <strong>Pedelec</strong>, braking<br />
and negotiating curves but do it away from<br />
public roads.<br />
Derailleur<br />
First switch the chain to the centre pinion at<br />
the rear. Switch between the front chain rings.<br />
Gear adjustment:<br />
The gear must be adjusted regularly, depending<br />
on the type of gear usage. Let your dealer do all<br />
the gear settings.<br />
Brakes<br />
Your <strong>Pedelec</strong> is equipped with two independent<br />
brakes. The right brake lever works on the front<br />
wheel brake, and the left one on the rear wheel<br />
brake. You can change this order by changing<br />
the brake wires on the brake lever. Get this done<br />
by your dealer.<br />
Hand brakes<br />
Check the smooth functioning of the brakes<br />
before each trip. Contact the dealer if you detect<br />
slackening of the braking effect! The brake shoe<br />
or shoes are labelled. Always use spare parts of<br />
the same label.<br />
V-brake<br />
This brake is activated by pulling the brake<br />
lever at the handle bar of your cycle. Two brake<br />
