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 addition-
al 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 (a) or, additionally, on the rechargeable
battery (b).
CAUTION!
S
In general, the batteries of SCOTT pedelecs have no memory effect. It is
recommended that you charge the battery after every long ride (c). Avoid
any deep discharge of the rechargeable battery.
NOTE!
U
For more information see the system instructions of your drive manufactur-
er on this SCOTT info CD.
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) (d) 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
(e), 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 SCOTT bike without drive
- not only riding in high gears
- riding with these facts in mind and always looking aheadto avoid any unnec-
essary stops
- reducing your additional load, i.e. without unnecessary luggage
- storing your battery in your home and installing it only shortly before you set
off on your SCOTT pedelec in cooler weather, in particular when it is cold (f)
- not parking your SCOTT pedelec in the blazing sun
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 to make yourself familiar with the
riding characteristics of your SCOTT 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, 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!

Please 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!
DANGER!

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
