Page 12: Boarding And Cycling

Page 13: Brakes
TIP FROM DANNY When cycling, steer from your arms and not your body. Cycling around corners you will need getting used to. To maintain stability, in sharp turns, lean your body slightly to the inside of the turn. Be careful when making short turns. Adjust your speed. -
Page 14: Parking Brake
CYCLING WITH PEDAL ASSISTANCE If your Copilot 3 is equipped with pedal assistance, the electric motor is turned on as soon as you start pedaling. Pedaling then becomes lighter. If you stop pedaling, the pedal assistance will also stop. -

Check if the battery is full when you want to travel long distances. The pad gets shorter as the battery gets empty. If the pad is completely black, the battery is full. -
Page 16: Moving And Carrying The Tandem
MOVING AND CARRYING THE TANDEM To move or carry the tandem, you can grab the tandem at the back side by the luggage carrier and at the front by the head tube. We recommend lifting the tandem with at least two people. While lifting, also hold the handlebars to prevent the front wheels and handlebars from spinning and possibly causing injury. -
