LIGHTING SYSTEM
ORIENTATION OF THE FRONT LIGHT
The model PRECEDE:ON is equipped with a front
light.
To set the lighting range of the front light, proceed
as follows.
Ensure that your pedelec is standing upright on
level ground before starting to adjust the light.
Remove the front light cover from the underside
of your handlebar. To do this, undo the two screws
on the underside of the handlebar with a 3 mm
Allen key.
Undo the fastening screw of the light only as far
as necessary to move the light in its holder up and
down by hand.
Take care not to undo the screw to its full length.
You can now adjust the light to the desired po-
sition.
Use the light beam projected onto the road to ad-
just the light's position:
A rule of the German road traffic licensing regu-
X
lations (although obsolete by now) can be used
as a starting point: According to this rule the
light should be adjusted so it does not dazzle
other road users.
Modern LED lights deliver a much higher light
X
output while causing less glare. Try to find the
light setting suited to your riding speed on a ride
on a quiet road or on a country lane away from
road traffic.
The centre of the front light's beam may not hit
X
the road surface at more than 10 metres dis-
tance ahead of the pedelec.
Once you have set the correct position, tighten the
fastening screw of the light to 3 Nm.
Following this, reinstall the cover of the front light.
To do this, tighten the two screws on the under-
side of the handlebar to 2 Nm.
Observe the torque value of 2 Nm specified on
the cover. Never exceed this value. Use a torque
wrench.
CROOZER CHILD
TRAILER
Some category 2e pedelec models are designed
so that you can use them with a Croozer trailer.
At the time of editing of these instructions, these
models are the Precede:ON and the Pathlite:ON. To
see if using a bicycle trailer with your model is
possible, refer to the description of your Canyon
pedelec on our website, www.canyon.com, or use
our service hotline or the contact form on our
website, www.canyon.com
Before mounting your Croozer trailer, you need to
install the "Croozer Click & Crooz 12-167 XL" thru
axle with integrated hitch in the rear wheel.
For information on removing your thru axle, read
the chapters "Quixle thru axle (rear wheel)" and
"How to use quick-releases and thru axles" in
your comprehensive world-specific Canyon bicy-
cle manual.
Slide the thru axle with integrated hitch for the
Croozer trailer from the left through the wheel
dropout and the hub.
When the thread of the thru axle engages, slightly
tighten the thru axle with integrated hitch clock-
wise. Using a torque wrench, tighten the thru axle
with integrated hitch to 12 Nm torque.

CROOZER CHILD TRAILER
In the UK the following regulations apply to the
lighting for bicycle trailers:
Bicycle trailers must be fitted with a rear lamp
X
and a triangular-shaped rear reflector with an
ECE mark III or IIIA.
Inform yourself about and observe the applicable
regulations for lighting systems for bicycle trailers
in your country.
For pedelec models with a hub gear, it is not nec-
essary to replace the complete axle to be able to
use the Croozer trailer. All need to do is replace
the axle nut on the left-hand axle side.
