Page 12: Before You Ride
2 Before you ride 2.1 Mounting the Front Wheel There are two types of front wheel hubs - Nut and Quick Release. Nutted Front Wheels 1. Loosen the axle nuts on the front wheel. If there is a washer inside of the axle nut, it belongs outside of the fork dropouts. If the washer has a hook or a step, be sure that it engages the fork before tightening the axle nuts. - Page 13 washer, be sure the step fits into the key hole at the top of the wheel slot. 3. Tighten the two outer axle nuts evenly; 4. Tighten one side part way, then tighten the other side and repeat until both sides are tightened securely. 5.
- Page 14 2. Unscrew the lock nut from the quick release skewer, remove outer spring and slide the skewer through the front wheel axle so that the handle is on the left side of the bike (the side opposite the chain). 3. Install the spring and then start to thread the lock nut back onto the skewer, but do not tighten too far.
- Page 15 DO NOT attempt to tighten the wheel by turning the handle to tighten; the handle is for closing, the lock nut (opposite side) is for adjusting the tension. Caution! All quick release levers should be inspected before every ride to be sure they are fully closed and secure. Failure to properly close a quick release lever can cause loss of control of the bicycle resulting in injury or death.

Page 36: Maintenance
4 Maintenance 4.1 Care and Maintenance Take care of your PedElec the way you would with a regular bicycle by keeping it dry, clean and the moving parts well lubricated. Avoid parking your PedElec in exposed areas whenever possible. Avoid parking your PedElec outside when there is rain or snow. At the end of a trip where there was rain or snow, bring the PedElec inside and use a clean, dry towel to eliminate any wetness. - Page 37 Caution! Riding a damaged or worn rim may lead to sudden improper braking function. Sudden or improper braking function can cause loss of control, resulting in serious injury or death. Replace damaged or worn rims before riding the bike. The operation of the derailleur system should be checked at least every month.
- Page 38 Caution! As with all mechanical components, the bicycle is subjected to wear and high stresses. Different materials and components may react to wear or stress fatigue in different ways. If the design life of a component has been exceeded, it may suddenly fail possibly causing injuries to the rider.
- Page 39 Do not place the battery near fire or corrosive substances. Do not immerse in water or other liquids. Avoid subjecting the battery to high temperature, such as directly under the hot sun, for prolonged periods of time. After much use, your battery's charge holding capacity will decrease. If you find that your battery does not hold sufficient charge even for short trips, you should contact your dealer to order a replacement.

Page 40: Recommendation For Washing
4.2 Recommendation for washing Use only water. On suspension forks and shocks, cover adjustment knobs with a clean plastic bag secured temporarily with a rubber band or masking tape. When cleaning the bike, use a sponge and/or a soft brush. For the battery-case, a damp cloth suffices. - Page 41 Maximizing the Riding Range Many factors affect the rate of energy consumption and hence affect the riding range. Fully charge the battery before a long journey. Rough road conditions and hilly terrain will consume more energy. Frequent change of speed will consume more energy. Carrying more weight on the bike will consume more energy.
