DANGER!
h
Keep in mind that pedestrians do not hear you when you approach at high speed.
Therefore, ride particularly defensive and anticipating when using cycle lanes and
cycle/footpaths to avoid accidents. If necessary, ring the bell to warn others.
USEFUL INFORMATION FOR A LONG RIDE
How long and how far you can benefit from the auxiliary drive depends on several
factors, i.e. the road conditions, the weight of the rider and any additional load, the
rider’s pedal force, the degree or mode of assistance, (head)winds, frequent stops,
temperature, weather conditions, topography, tyre pressure etc.
The charge state of your rechargeable battery can be read from the display of the
control element on the handlebars (d) or, additionally, on the rechargeable battery.
CAUTION!
S
In general, the batteries of BERGAMONT pedelecs have no memory effect. It is
recommended that you charge the battery after every long ride. Avoid any deep
discharge of the rechargeable battery.
NOTE!
U
For more information see the system instructions of your drive manufacturer.
To extend the range it is recommended that you ride with low assistance (Eco) or no
assistance at all on level or downhill trails and only select maximum drive assistance
(Turbo) (e) with headwinds, heavy additional loads and/or when climbing hills.
Furthermore, you can affect the range by
- checking the tyre pressure regularly, i.e. once a week with a pressure gauge (f),
and adjusting it, if necessary
- shifting gears down in front of traffic lights and intersections or in general in cases
of stops and by setting off in low gears
- shifting gears regularly, as you would do on a BERGAMONT bike without drive
Do not give in to the temptation to always ride in a high gear, due to the strong
motor. Shift gears frequently (a) in the same way that you are used to doing with a
conventional BERGAMONT bike so as to make your own contribution to your forward
progress as efficient as possible. Your cadence should always be in a smooth flow. In
other words, you should pedal at more than 60 crank rotations per minute.
Change down the gears before stopping.
Keep in mind that the other road users are not yet used to the new pedelecs and their
higher speeds. Ride with this fact in mind and anticipate the actions of other road
users. Be aware that the speed you ride at will be clearly faster than you are used to.
Therefore, keep these facts in mind and be ready to brake whenever an unclear or a
possibly dangerous situation comes into your field of vision.
DANGER!
H
Do a test ride in an unfrequented area (b) to make yourself familiar with the riding
characteristics of your BERGAMONT pedelec and the possibly higher speed and
acceleration before riding on public roads. Risk of accident! Never ride without a helmet!
DANGER!
H
Do not step on the pedals before sitting in the saddle (c), select the lowest drive
assistance and be ready to brake when you set off. Risk of falling!
DANGER!
H
Keep in mind that due to the higher driving power at the rear wheel the risk of an
accident increases with slippery roads (due to wetness, snow, gravel etc.). This
applies all the more when riding bends. Risk of falling!
DANGER!
H
Note that car drivers and other road users may underestimate your speed. Always
wear bright clothing. Therefore, always ride on public roads with this fact in mind
and anticipate the actions of other road users. Risk of accident!
