During assembly, make sure the LEVAL can move freely in all directions and sufficient space for all
movements is available. For this purpose, the power cables must also be able to move freely and
must not be under tension.
!
When mounting, make sure that the complete assembly (consisting of bracket
) is as short as possible. A long assembly may cause vibrations at the headlamp due to the extended

lever, which could cause an unsteady light pattern. A more stable holder
NOTICE
In many cases, a front reflector attached to the headlight can restrict or even hinder the
flexibility of the LEVAL. If so, mount a reflector elsewhere according to the legal requirements (in
Germany at a height between 400 and 1,200 mm).

7.2. Initial headlight alignment

First align the headlight 1 correctly with the LEVAL deactivated (switch

always be visible on the road. For this purpose, loosen the headlight retaining screw

WARNING If unsuitable or improperly positioned brackets are used to mount a bicycle light,
the LEVAL or the headlight may probably come loose, slide down and, in the worst case, get
caught in the wheel spokes. Under certain circumstances, this can lead to falls, accidents and
serious injuries. Therefore, always make sure the LEVAL is mounted properly.
Never look directly into the light of the bicycle headlight when switched on.
WARNING

7.3. Practical test before initial startup of the LEVAL

- only required in case of parallel connection with the headlight (see 6.1)
After successful installation and initial alignment of the headlight, you can carry out the following
practical test before initial startup to determine whether the power provided is sufficient for opera-
tion of the lighting system and the LEVAL curve light assistant.
1. Switch on the lighting system. Set the LEVAL switch
is also activated.
2. Set the light intensity of the headlight
modes is connected, set this to the highest level as well.
3. Tilt the bicycle to the side so that the cut-off line is no longer horizontal.
4. Use your hand to carefully exert a slight pressure on the swivel arm
direction of the centre position. As soon as an overload is detected, the LEVAL switches off,
yields to the hand force and can simply be turned away.
Results
If the headlight keeps on shining in this test, the energy currently available is sufficient. Briefly
switch the LEVAL to „OFF" via the switch
If the headlight 1 no longer lights up or has lost lighting power, the energy currently provided is
not sufficient for the maximum load.
Caution: Ensure glare-free alignment
