English - Important to read before the first ride

US Customer: Supplemental Product Information

The most important points for you to do

1. Even if you have ridden a bicycle for years, it is important for every person to read the general “Bicycle

Owner’s manual” and the specific “Electric Bicycle Owner’s manual” carefully before you ride on the new electric bicycle.

• Both manuals contains detailed information and useful suggestions about your new bicycle.

• Make sure that you understand the proper use, maintenance, and disposal of the components of the electrical system of your new electric bicycle.

2. Think about safety. Your safety and that of other road users is very important.

Do not ride the electric bicycle without the battery. The battery must be on the bicycle while riding, else the bicycle has no lights when needed.

• Check your bicycle for normal operation, loose parts and defects before riding. If you find any problem, visit your bicycle dealer for repairs before riding.

• Be aware that other road users (cars, trucks, motorcycles) do not expect that an electric bicycle can ride faster than a normal bicycle. Riding faster also increases the risk of accidents. Distances will close much faster, and braking distances will become longer.

• Do not ride abusively. Only ride in the use conditions specified for your bicycle:

- Electric City/Trekking bicycles are approved for Condition 1 (paved roads with tires staying on the ground).

- Electric Mountain bicycles are approved for Condition 3 (rougher surfaces, jumps of not more than 24 inch (61 cm)). Please refer to the general Bicycle Owner’s manual for more detailed information.

• Do not overload the rear rack. The maximum allowable weight for the rear rack on electric bicycles is 44 lb (20 kg) for bicycles with a rear rack battery and 55 lb (25 kg) for bicycles with a down tube battery. On bicycles with a luggage rack at both sides of the rear fender only, without a top deck, the maximum allowed load on the rack is 33 lb (15 kg) in total.

ENGLISH

3. The electric system of your new bicycle needs special attention.

• Do not clean your electric bicycle with a high pressure washer. Any electrical system is sensitive to moisture. High pressure water might enter connectors or other parts of the electric system.

• Handle your battery with care. Do not drop or impact the battery. Mishandling of the battery could lead to severe damage or over-heating. In an extremely rare case, a battery that has been severely impacted or otherwise mishandled could potentially catch fire. If you suspect damage to your battery, visit your dealer immediately for inspection.

4. Maintain the battery as instructed in this Electric Bicycle Owner’s manual.

Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to your battery and may require battery replacement:

• Only charge the battery with the included charger.

• When not using the battery for a longer period, charge it to approximately 60% (three to four LEDs lit on the charge-control indicator). Check the charge condition after six months. When only one LED of the charge-control indicator lights up, recharge the battery again to approximately 60%.

• Once charging the battery is complete, unplug the battery from the charger and unplug the charger from the wall socket.

• A Li-Ion battery will self-discharge over time. If the battery is left uncharged, then stored without charging,

it may discharge to such a low state that the battery can no longer be charged and must be replaced.

ENGLISH

• Store the battery in a dry, well-ventilated location. Protect the battery against moisture and water.

• Under unfavorable weather conditions, it is recommended e.g. to remove the battery from the bicycle and store it in a protected location.

• The battery can be stored at temperatures between -4°F (-20°C) and 140°F (+60°C). For a long battery life, however, it is best to store the battery at room temperature of approximately 68°F (20°C) is of advantage.

• If the bicycle is not ridden for an extended time, do not store the battery on the bicycle.

5. Be careful when transporting an electric bicycle.

• An electric bicycle is heavier than a normal bicycle. If transporting on a vehicle, be aware of the maximum load capacity of the vehicle’s roof, towing hook and/or the bicycle carrier. Refer to the manuals of the vehicle and bicycle carrier for details.

• Remove the controller (if removable), and battery and, if present, panniers from the bicycle and store them elsewhere in the vehicle during the drive.

• Always respect local laws about transportation of an electric bicycle.

• Because Li-Ion batteries of this size and power are considered ‘Dangerous goods, class 9’ when transporting, regulations may restrict the transport of separate Li-Ion batteries in some places. The restrictions apply to most airlines and some trucking companies. If you intend to ship or travel with your electric bicycle (with installed battery), check with the airline or carrier and local regulations about traveling with a Li-Ion battery.

6. Obey local regulations.

In most countries the regulations for the use of an electric bicycle are the same as those for a standard bicycle. However, there may be local differences such as where you can ride, minimum rider age, or required equipment and registration. It is the rider’s responsibility to know the local regulations that apply to an electric bicycle and to obey them.

7. Mounting accessories on an e-bike.

An electric bike has hidden wiring through frame and has other critical e-bike parts like the drive unit and battery pack. When mounting accessories (e.g. a bottle cage), be sure not to impact the wiring or battery pack, e.g. by using too long or pointed bolts. This might cause a short circuit to the electric system and/or damage to the battery.

Warning. A short circuit in the electric system and/or damage to the battery might lead to over-heating.

In an extremely rare case, a battery pack that has been severely impacted could potentially catch fire.

8. Visit your dealer on a regular basis for maintenance of your new bicycle.

• Your dealer has the right knowledge and equipment to maintain your e-bike and to mount accessories safely.

• If you have questions about your new electric bicycle, ask your dealer!

Limited warranty

Your bicycle is covered by a Lifetime Limited Warranty. Please visit our web site for details.

Français - À lire imperativement avant votre premiere sortie

Client américain: informations complémentaires sur le produit

Points les plus importants à respecter

1. Même si vous êtes un cycliste expérimenté, il est primordial de lire attentivement le « Manuel du cycliste » et le « Manuel de l’utilisateur vélo électrique » avant de rouler avec votre nouveau vélo.

• Ces deux manuels contiennent des informations détaillées et des suggestions utiles concernant votre

nouveau vélo.

• Assurez-vous de comprendre l’utilisation, l’entretien et la mise au rebut des composants du système

électrique de votre nouveau vélo électrique.

2. La sécurité avant tout. Votre sécurité et celle des autres usagers de la route est très importante.

• N’utilisez jamais votre vélo électrique sans batterie. La batterie doit être installée sur le vélo quand vous

roulez, sans quoi vous ne pourrez pas allumer les phares le moment venu.

• Avant d’utiliser votre vélo, vérifiez qu’il est en bon état de marche et qu’aucune pièce n’est desserrée ou

défectueuse. Si vous remarquez une anomalie, emmenez le vélo chez votre revendeur pour qu’il puisse réaliser les réparations.

• N’oubliez jamais que les autres usagers (voitures, camions, motos) de la route ne s’attendent pas forcément à

ce qu’un vélo électrique roule plus vite qu’un vélo traditionnel. Rouler plus vite augmente par ailleurs le risque d’accidents. Les distances se réduiront beaucoup plus rapidement et les distances de freinage deviendront plus longues.

• Ne roulez pas de façon inappropriée. Respectez scrupuleusement les conditions d’utilisation spécifiques

du vélo:

- Les vélos électriques City / Trekking sont approuvés pour la condition 1 (routes pavées avec des pneus restant au sol).

- Les bicyclettes électriques Mountain sont homologuées pour la condition 3 (surfaces rugueuses, sauts inférieurs à 24 pouces (61 cm)). Consultez le « Manuel du cycliste » pour obtenir de plus amples informations.

• Ne surchargez pas le porte-bagages : la charge maximale admise sur le porte-bagages d’un vélo électrique est de 44 lb (20 kg) pour les vélos avec batterie fixée à l’arrière et de 55 lb (25 kg) pour les vélos avec batterie sur le tube diagonal. Sur les vélos avec un porte bagages avec deux support uniquement sur les deux côtés et sans plateforme supérieur la charge maximale autorisée est de 33 lb (15 kg) au total.

FRANÇAIS

3. Le système électrique de votre nouveau vélo requiert une attention particulière.

• Ne nettoyez pas votre vélo électrique avec un jet à haute pression. Les systèmes électriques sont sensibles à l’humidité. L’eau à haute pression pourrait s’infiltrer dans les connecteurs et autres pièces du système électrique.

• Maniez la batterie avec précaution. Ne laissez pas tomber la batterie et ne la soumettez pas à d’autres types de choc. Une manipulation inadaptée peut provoquer de sérieux dommages ou une surchauffe de la batterie. Dans des cas extrêmement rares, une batterie qui a subi un choc violent ou tout autre mauvais traitement pourrait s’enflammer. Si vous soupçonnez des dégâts au niveau de la batterie, rendez-vous immédiatement chez votre revendeur pour réaliser un contrôle.

4. Entretenez le groupe de batterie conformément aux instructions du Manuel pour utilisateurs le vélo électrique.

Le non-respect de ces instructions pourrait endommager votre batterie et imposer un remplacement:

• Rechargez la batterie uniquement à l’aide du chargeur inclus.

• Si vous n’allez pas utiliser la batterie pendant une période prolongée, chargez-la jusqu’à environ 60 % de

sa capacité (3 DEL sur 4 allumées sur le témoin de contrôle de charge). Vérifiez la charge après six mois.

Si une seule DEL s’allume, rechargez à nouveau la batterie jusqu’à environ 60 %.

• Une fois la charge terminée, débranchez la batterie du chargeur et débranchez le chargeur de la prise murale.

• Une batterie Li-Ion s’auto-décharge avec le temps Si la batterie n’est pas chargée, puis stockée sans charge, elle peut se décharger si bas que la batterie ne peut plus être chargée et doit être remplacée.

• Rangez la batterie dans un endroit sec et bien aéré. Protégez-la contre l’humidité et l’eau.

• Par mauvais temps, il est conseillé de déposer la batterie du vélo et de la ranger dans un lieu protégé jusqu’à sa prochaine utilisation.

• La batterie peut être rangée à des températures comprises entre -4°F (-20°C) et 140°F (+60°C). Pour une longue durée de vie, un stockage à une température ambiante d’environ 68°F (20°C) est préférable. Si le vélo n’est pas utilisé pendant une période prolongée, ne stockez pas la batterie sur le vélo.

5. Soyez prudent lors du transport d’un vélo électrique.

FRANÇAIS

• Un vélo électrique est plus lourd qu’un vélo traditionnel. Si vous transportez votre vélo sur un véhicule, veillez à ne pas dépasser la charge maximale supportée par le toit du véhicule, le crochet de la remorque et/ou le porte-vélos. Consultez le Manuel du conducteur et le mode d’emploi du porte-vélos pour obtenir tous les détails.

• Pour le trajet, retirez l’écran de contrôle (si amovible), la batterie et, le cas échéant, les paniers fixés sur le vélo et transportez-les dans le véhicule.

• Respectez toujours la législation locale applicable au transport d’un vélo électrique.

• Dans la mesure où les batteries Li-ion de cette taille et de cette puissance sont considérées comme des « marchandises dangereuses de classe 9 » pour le transport, des réglementations peuvent limiter, dans certaines conditions, le transport de ce type de batteries seules. Ces restrictions sont appliquées par la plupart des compagnies aériennes et certains transporteurs routiers.

• Sachez toutefois que si vous avez l’intention de voyager avec votre vélo électrique (avec la batterie installée) ou de l’expédier, renseignez-vous auprès de votre compagnie aérienne ou de votre transporteur avant de réserver votre voyage pour vous assurer que le transport d’un vélo électrique complet (avec batterie installée) est autorisé.

6. Respectez les réglementations locales.

Dans la majorité des pays, les réglementations ne font pas la distinction entre l’utilisation d’un vélo normal et l’utilisation d’un vélo électrique. Il peut toutefois y avoir des différences locales comme les endroits où vous pouvez rouler, l’âge minimum du cycliste, l’équipement obligatoire ou la nécessité d’une licence. Il incombe au cycliste de s’informer sur les réglementations locales applicables à l’utilisation d’un vélo électrique et de les respecter.

7. Montage d’accessoires sur un vélo électrique..

Un vélo électrique a un câblage caché à l’intérieur du cadre et contient d’autres composants du vélo, tels que l’unité d’entraînement et le bloc-batterie. Lorsque vous montez des accessoires supplémentaires non standard (par exemple un porte-bidon), veillez à ne pas endommager le câblage ou le bloc-batterie en utilisant des vis trop longues ou pointus, cela pourrait causer un court-circuit au système électrique et ou endommager la batterie.

Avertissement. Un court-circuit dans le système électrique ou des dommages à la batterie peuvent théoriquement

provoquer une surchauffe de la batterie. Il est même possible pour une batterie endommagée de commencer à brûler.

8. Confiez votre vélo à intervalles réguliers au revendeur pour les interventions d’entretien.

• Votre revendeur dispose des connaissances et du matériel nécessaires pour entretenir votre vélo électrique et monter des accessoires supplémentaires en toute sécurité.

• Si vous avez des questions sur vote nouveau vélo électrique, n’hésitez pas à les poser à votre revendeur.

ESPAÑOL

Español - Información importante antes de usar la bicicleta por primera vez

Cliente de EEUU: Información adicional sobre el producto

Los siguientes puntos son fundamentales

1. Es importante leer detenidamente el “Manual del propietario de la bicicleta” y el “Manual do Proprietário da Bicicleta Elétrica”, incluso en caso de llevar años practicando el ciclismo.

• Ambos manuales contienen información detallada y consejos muy útiles sobre tu nueva bicicleta.

• Es importante entender cuál es el uso adecuado, el mantenimiento y cómo reciclar los componentes

del sistema eléctrico de tu nueva bicicleta.

2. Piensa en la seguridad. Tu seguridad y la de los demás usuarios de la carretera es primordial.

• No debes utilizar la bicicleta eléctrica sin batería. La batería debe estar instalada en la bicicleta mientras

se esté usando, de lo contrario, las luces no funcionarán cuando las necesites.

• Antes de empezar a montar, comprueba el funcionamiento de tu bicicleta y si hay piezas sueltas o

defectuosas. En caso de duda, visita a tu distribuidor.

• Ten en cuenta que los demás (autos, camiones, motocicletas) no esperan que una bicicleta eléctrica sea

más rápida que una bicicleta normal. Circular a gran velocidad también puede provocar accidentes. La distancia de seguridad se reducirá más rápido, y necesitarás más distancia de frenada.

• No circules de forma agresiva. Hazlo únicamente en las condiciones de uso especificadas para tu bicicleta:

- Las Las bicicletas eléctricas de paseo y urbanas están diseñadas para rodar en la situación 1 (carreteras pavimentadas con las cubiertas en contacto con el suelo).

- LasLas bicicletas eléctricas de montaña están diseñadas para rodar en la situación 3 (superficies abruptas, saltos inferiores a 24 inch (61 cm). Para más información consulta el manual general del propietario de la bicicleta.

• No sobrecargues el portabultos trasero. El peso máximo permitido para el portabultos trasero de las bicicletas eléctricas con la batería localizada en la parte trasera es de 44 lb (20 kg), y de 55 lb (25 kg) para las bicicletas con la batería en el tubo diagonal. En bicicletas con un transportín para colocar equipaje en los laterales, sin plataforma superior, la máxima carga permitida en el transportín es 33 lb (15 kg) en total.

3. El sistema eléctrico de tu nueva bicicleta requiere una atención especial.

• No limpies tu bicicleta eléctrica con agua a presión. Los sistemas eléctricos son sensibles a la humedad. El agua a alta presión puede penetrar en los conectores o en otras partes del sistema eléctrico.

• Utiliza la batería con cuidado. Evita que se caiga o se golpee. El mal uso de la batería podría provocar daños graves o el sobrecalentamiento. En un caso extremadamente excepcional, una batería que haya sufrido un impacto o se haya utilizado incorrectamente puede incendiarse. En caso de duda, acude a tu distribuidor inmediatamente para revisar la batería.

4. Para el mantenimiento de la batería, sigue las instrucciones del manual del propietario de la bicicleta eléctrica.

Si no sigues estas instrucciones, la batería podría dañarse y sería necesario sustituirla:

• Recarga la batería únicamente con el cargador que se incluye.

• Cuando no vayas a utilizar la batería durante un periodo prolongado de tiempo, recárgala a aproximadamente al 60% (se deben encender tres de los cuatro LED del indicador de control de carga). Transcurridos seis meses, comprueba el estado de la carga. Cuando solo se ilumine uno de los LED del indicador de control de carga, recarga la batería de nuevo al 60%.

• Una vez la batería esté completamente cargada, desconecta el cargador de la batería y desenchufa el cable del cargador de la toma de corriente.

ESPAÑOL

• Las baterías de iones de litio se descargan con el tiempo. Si guardas la batería descargada, puede ocurrir

que la batería ya no responda al tratar de recargarla y tengas que reemplazarla.

• Guarda la batería en un lugar seco y bien ventilado. Protégela del agua y la humedad.

• En condiciones meteorológicas adversas se recomienda, por ejemplo, extraer la batería de la bicicleta y guardarla en un lugar protegido hasta que se vuelva a utilizar.

• La batería se debe almacenar a una temperatura de entre -4°F (-20°C) y 140°F (+60°C). Sin embargo, para obtener el máximo rendimiento de la batería se recomienda guardarla a una temperatura ambiente de 68°F (20°C) aproximadamente.

• Si no vas a usar la bicicleta durante un largo periodo de tiempo, no dejes la batería instalada en la bicicleta.

5. Ten cuidado al transportar tu bicicleta eléctrica.

• Las bicicletas eléctricas pesan más que las bicicletas normales. Al transportarla en un vehículo, ten en cuenta la capacidad de carga máxima del techo, del gancho del remolque y/o del portabicis. Para obtener información detallada, consulta el manual del vehículo y del portabicis.

• Durante el transporte, extrae la consola (si extraíble), la batería y, en su caso, las alforjas de la bicicleta y guárdalos en el interior del vehículo.

• Es importante cumplir siempre la normativa local sobre el transporte de bicicletas eléctricas.

• Debido a que las baterías de iones de litio de este tamaño y potencia se consideran “productos peligrosos de clase 9”, su transporte puede estar limitado en algunos lugares cuando se trata del transporte por separado. Estas restricciones se aplican en la mayoría de compañías aéreas y de transporte terrestre. Si tienes intención de viajar o enviar tu bicicleta eléctrica (con la batería instalada), consulta con antelación con tu compañía aérea o de mensajería antes de reservar tu viaje para saber si está permitido viajar con tu bicicleta eléctrica.

6. Cumple la normativa local.

En la mayoría de los países la normativa sobre el uso de las bicicletas eléctricas es la misma que para las bicicletas normales. Sin embargo, pueden existir diferencias en cuanto a los espacios donde montar, a la edad mínima, al proceso de registro o al equipamiento necesario. Es obligación del ciclista conocer y cumplir la normativa local aplicable a una bicicleta eléctrica.

7. Montagem de acessórios numa e-bike..

As e-bikes têm fios elétricos que passam ao longo do quadro e têm outros componentes específicos das bicicletas elétricas como o motor e a bateria. Quando instalar acessórios adicionais, que não vêm de origem, tal como um portabidões, certifique-se de que essa montagem não interfere com os fios nem com a bateria. Tal poderia ocorrer com o uso indevido de parafusos longos e pontiagudos, que poderia resultar num curto-circuito ou em danos na bateria.

Aviso. Um curto- circuito no sistema elétrico e/ou danos na bateria pode provocar um sobreaquecimento.

Em casos extremamente raros, uma bateria seriamente danificada pode potencialmente incendiar-se.

ESPAÑOL

8. Acude regularmente a tu distribuidor para realizar el mantenimiento de tu nueva bicicleta.

• O distribuidor mais próximo tem toda a informação e o equipamento para a manutenção e instalação segura de acessórios adicionais nas e-bikes.

• En caso de duda sobre tu nueva bicicleta eléctrica, consulta a tu distribuidor.

X Store the battery pack in a clean and dry

location. Avoid allowing water and dirt to enter the battery socket or plug. Only remove the battery from the bike in a clean and dry environment.

Check your battery pack before using it for the first time. First turn on the battery pack; if the charging LED does not light up, it means that this battery pack might be damaged. Also, charge the battery pack fully before using it for the first time.

X Do not try to use or charge damaged battery

packs.

X Please use genuine Hydrive battery chargers

or chargers that are approved to be used with the Hydrive battery pack.

Note: The battery packs are partially charged before they are shipped; in order to ensure that the battery has full and sufficient power, please charge your battery pack fully before using it for the first time.

The battery pack can be charged under any power mode; interrupting the charging process will not damage the battery pack. Please perform charging in environments between 14°F ~ 122°F (-10°C ~ +50°C).

WARNING

Do not connect the battery pack to the charger unless under appropriate temperatures.

Once the battery pack switch is turned on, the five LED lights on the charge control monitor (number 7) will light up. Each light on the charge monitor represents approximately 20% of the power; so when the battery pack is fully charged,

all five LED lights will light up. The battery charge level will also be displayed on the handlebar mounted display. Please refer to the manuals for the Display and Hub Motor.

When the power of the battery pack is less than 5%, all LED lights will go off, but the display screen will indicate that the e-bike is on.

After charging is complete, and all 5 LEDs on the battery pack are illuminated, disconnect the charger from the battery pack and wall socket.
