DRIVE SYSTEM
OPERATE THE DRIVE SYSTEM
The drive system assists you whilst pedalling with additional motor power up to a speed of 25 km/h. You
can freely choose between the assistance levels
1. Select the desired assistance level with the Plus
The higher the selected assistance level, the greater the motor assistance. The speed to be reached de-
pends to a large extent on various factors, such as:
- total weight (including rider and luggage),
- tyre pressure,
- gradient or incline,
- condition of the ground,
- wind conditions.
For systems with mid-mounted motor, the maximum assisted speed also depends on the gear engaged.
The higher the engaged gear, the higher the assisted speed by the mid-mounted motor.
If the pedals stop moving during the trip, the motor will also stop automatically after a short delay.
You can ride the e-bike like a normal bicycle with the drive system switched off or with assistance level
at "0" .

DRIVING BEHAVIOUR WITH MOTOR ASSISTANCE
The driving behaviour of an e-bike with active motor assistance is sometimes very different from that of
a bicycle.
You should therefore adapt the assistance level of the motor to the outside environment (e.g. road sur-
face, traffic density, surface conditions), the speed and your own capabilities. For example, use either a
low level of assistance or no assistance at all when driving into tight curves or when driving at a low
speed.
PUSHING AID
With the pushing aid you can accelerate the e-bike up to a speed of no more than 6 km/h without any
pedal movement.
