The use of the throttle in pedelec mode is legal in most countries. Use of the
throttle in pedelec mode enables you to turn up the power to the motor as long
as you are pedaling the bike, if you stop pedaling the motor will stop too. If you
have the pedelec mode set to Low, you can increase the assistance from the
motor from 40% to 100% of available power simply but turning the throttle
towards you. This also works in High mode and will let you increase the power
from 80% to 100% of available power.
IMPORTANT Make sure your throttle grip and the grip on the left hand side of your
handle bars are always intact, in good condition and on the bike. Uncovered handlebar
tubes can be very dangerous in case of a collision.

motor immediately stops working.

How to adjust and maintain your brakes
Once a month, inspect brake pads for wear. If the grooves in the braking
surface are less than 2 mm deep replace the pads. Replace disc brake pads that
are thinner than 1.0 mm.
To replace V brake pads
13.3.1 Use 5mm Allen key to loosen bolt A and
take the cable out. Use 5mm Allen key
to undo bolt C on the right & left, and
remove the spacers and washers.
13.3.2 Install new brake pads, then with both
pads pressed against the wheel rim,
ensure that distance B (in the diagram)
does not exceed 65mm. To decrease
distance-B, exchange wide & narrow
spacers on each brake pad. Before
finally tightening brake pads, make sure
they are aligned correctly on the rim,
and there is a gap of 1mm between the
top of the rim and the top of the pad.
Hold each pad against the rim (one at a
time) & tighten bolt C. Finally tightening them to 6-8N.m
Rear: V brake
