manual abstract
Please read them carefully before using your cycle and familiarise yourself well with the functioning of the system. Please also read the notes in the enclosed KETTLER general instructions for assembly and operation. Introduction Pedelec (Pedal Electric Cycle) The motor responds to the force which you exert on the pedals. The motor power is adjusted automatically to your muscle strength by means of a torque sensor. The pedalling assistance is reduced gradually as your speed increases and switched off as soon as it reaches 25 km/h or when you stop pedalling altogether. Legal provisions Your Pedelec has a maximum rated continuous power of 250 W and therefore qualifies as a bicycle according to European Standard. In Germany and most other EU countries, Pedelecs are approved for use without minimum age requirement, safety helmet or insurance registration. Your cycle is identified as a Pedelec by a marking on the saddle column and fulfils all the requirements of the EU Guideline 89/336/EEC governing electromagnetic compatibility. These Operating Instructions are not intended as a comprehensive repair or maintenance manual. For all questions concerning service, repair and maintenance please contact your KETTLER dealer. 3 Contents Introduction 2 Table of contents 3 General diagram 4 Charging the battery 5 - 6 Operation and control 7 Assistance mode / range 8 Technical data 9 - 12 Care and maintenance 13 Troubleshooting 14 Guarantee / general notes 15 4 Pedelec General Diagram Pedelec General Diagram 1.

When delivered, the battery is in the uncharged state and is in sleeping mode. The battery can be charged in any state i.e. at any charge level. Removing the battery To charge the battery, it first has to be removed from the cycle. 1. To release the lock, turn the key to the left in anticlockwise direction. 2. Hold the charger by the handle and tilt it 45° to the side. 3. Lift the battery out of its rack. IMPORTANT: For safety reasons, always remove the key. Charging process 1. Place the battery in the holder in the charging unit. 2. Connect the charging unit to the power supply by inserting the plug into a 220 V socket. 3. The battery is fully charged when all 5 LEDs light up. The current status of the charging process is always displayed during charging. 4. Remove the plug from the power socket and then take the battery out of the charging unit. Charging the Battery 6 Note: 1. The length of the charging process depends on the capacity and the level of the charge. 2. Charge the battery at room temperature only. As soon as the ambient temperature of the battery is less than 0° or more than 40° the battery cannot be charged and the charging unit remains in standby mode. 3. Please observe the safety notes on the charging unit and battery on page 11. Mounting the battery on the Pedelec 1. Insert the battery into the rack at an angle of 45°. 2. Tilt the battery back until it clicks into the lock. Before cycling Always check the level of the battery charge before departing on a cycling run. To check the battery charge, press the red button PUSH and the remaining charge in the battery will be displayed. Each LED corresponds to a level of approx. 20%. Charging the Battery 7 Operation and Control Operating Unit The operating unit is for switching the system on and off, selecting the desired assistance level and displaying the amount of charge remaining in the battery. Switching on Press the Power button on the operating unit on your handlebars. All the LEDs light up for 2 seconds. Important: Do not put any pressure on the pedals during these 2 seconds because the torque-measurement system is being set automatically. The LEDs of the battery-level display and the selected assistance mode then light up. The system is now active. Note: Do not activate the system when applying force to the pedals. If the LEDs do not light up after you have pressed the Power button, ensure that the battery is correctly mounted and charged. Cycling When force is applied to the pedals the system becomes active and motor assistance is available. The magnetic torque sensor measures your force and automatically controls the level of motor assistance according to your prior assistance setting. The amount of pedalling force you require is reduced by between 60 and 30% depending on the mode selected. If possible start with a low gear to avoid unnecessary stress to the battery. The power assistance is reduced gradually from a speed of approx. 16 km per hour upwards, and switches off at a speed of over 25 km per hour. Stopping After stopping, press the Power button to switch the system off. Auto Power Off The system switches off automatically after a few minutes. To re-activate the system, press the Power button. 8 Assistan...
