Checking the brake system

For permanently safe operation, observe the notices:
⇨ chap. 26 "Brake system" on page 142
and
⇨ chap. 35 "Checking the brake system" on page 154 .

WARNING
!
Risk of accident and injury!
If components of the disc brake wear out without you noticing it, a loss
of function of the disc brake can result.
» Check the brake system regularly (monthly or every 500 km)
according to the manufacturer's instructions and have the
components replaced by your dealer in good time.
» Always have maintenance work on the brake system carried out by
your specialist dealer.
» Always contact your dealer if the pressure point of the brakes varies.
CAUTION
!
Risk of burns from contact with hot brake discs!
Brake discs can become very hot due to solar radiation and during
operation, especially when the brake is used intensively (e.g. when
cycling downhill or during emergency braking).
» Always let the brake disc cool down first before working on or near
the brake disc.

Checking the brake pads

The brake pads must be replaced when:
• The pad thickness of 0.5 mm is reached (fig. 63).
• The pads have come into contact with oil or grease. Safe operation is
then no longer guaranteed.

Checking the brake discs

When new, the brake discs have a thickness of 2 mm. The brake discs must
be replaced when they have reached the minimum thickness of 1.5 mm.
Brake discs need to be replaced less often than brake pads
due to the harder material. An approximate reference value
for the lifetime of a brake disc is 4-5 changed brake pads.
This reference value does not replace the regular check of
the residual thickness.

Adjusting the shifting system

54.1

Calibrating Enviolo TR - AUTOMATiQ eShift

Heinrich / Hannah – Enviolo
The controller of Enviolo TR is integrated into the e-bike drive system and
shifts automatically.
If the system operation is unreliable or faulty or a software update has
been performed, a calibration of the shifting system is necessary.
• To perform the calibration, go to >> Settings >> My E-Bike >> e-Shift
>> Calibration. Turn the crankarms until the display shows „Calibration
successful".
54.2

Adjusting the Alfine 8-gear shifting system

Heinrich / Hannah – Alfine
1. Shift to the reference gear (gear 4).
2. Check the adjustment using the yellow markings on the hub. The
shifting system is correctly adjusted if both yellow markings on the hub
are exactly parallel to each other in the reference gear (fig. 64).
If the yellow markings do not form a line:
• Screw in or unscrew the adjusting screw 1 on the shift lever unit
(fig. 65) until the marking form a single line (fig. 64).
