or pedelec.
Improperly closed fastenings can cause parts of your
WHEELER pedelec to come loose and result in serious ac-
cidents!
Do not use your WHEELER bicycle if it fails on any one of
these points! Riding a defective WHEELER bicycle can result
in serious accidents! If you are in doubt or if you have any
questions, please contact your WHEELER bicycle dealer.
During use your WHEELER bicycle or pedelec is undergoing
stress resulting from the surface of the road and through
the rider's actions. Due to these dynamic loads, the differ-
ent parts of your bicycle react with wear and fatigue. Please
check your WHEELER bicycle or pedelec regularly for wear
marks, scratches, deformations, colour changes and any
indication of cracking. Components which have reached the
end of their service life may break without previous warn-
ing. Let your WHEELER bicycle dealer maintain and service
your WHEELER bicycle regularly and in cases of doubt it is
always best to replace components.
Be aware that the distance you need to stop your bicycle
increases if you are riding with your hands on the bar ends
or on multi position handlebars. The brake levers are not
always within easy reach.

ment on the handlebars and the drive system

in?
You can find further information in the chapters "inserting and
removing the battery" and "operating the bionX propulsion
System" in your BionX system operating instructions.
2. Is your battery fully charged (f)?
Remember to fully recharge the battery after each longer ride
(e.g. less than 50% charged). Modern lithium-ion batteries have
no memory effect. However, it does not matter if your WHEELER
pedelec is left as it is for a short time (e.g. overnight) when less
than 50% charged. However, you should not wait until the battery
is fully discharged!
For more information see the chapter "useful information for
proper handling of the battery" and the chapter "handling and
charging the battery" in your BionX system operating instruc-
tions.
3. Does the display on the control element and the cycle computer on
the handlebars show all the values (g)?
Are there any error messages or warnings on the display? Check
the values are correct before every ride. Do not set off on your
WHEELER pedelec under any circumstances if the control element
shows a warning.
You can find further information in the chapter "operating the
bionX propulsion System" in your BionX system operating in-
structions.
4. Is the battery tight in its holder and properly locked up (h)? Never
set off with a loose and unlocked battery.
You can find further information in the chapter "inserting and re-
moving the battery" in your BionX system operating instructions.
