CARQON Flatbed Manuel page 24

5.2.1 Cycling with electrical pedal assistance
We recommend that you first try out the Carqon flatbed in a quiet environment and without cargo. This way
you can get used to your Carqon.
Only switch on the pedal assistance when you feel safe and secure with the flatbed.
●
Pay attention when steering, we recommend reducing speed before steering.
●
The pedal support is interrupted when you stop pedalling. As soon as you start pedalling again,
●
the support switches on again automatically. Cycling with your Carqon is, if the pedal assistance is
switched on, different from a non-electric (cargo) bike.
The pedal assistance is legally limited at a speed of 25 km/h.
●
When the pedal assistance is turned off, the Carqon cycles heavier than a non-electric flatbed. This is
●
due to the weight of the electric components.
Never walk with the pedal assistance switched on, as the Carqon flatbed can suddenly accelerate if you
●
accidentally bump into the pedals.
If you still want to switch on the pedal assistance while walking, use the walk-assist function.
●
Stop pedalling while braking and try to brake simultaneously and evenly with both brake levers.
●
Switch off the support in case of a poor or slippery road surface .
