Setting the Assistance Level
The level of assistance of the eBike drive unit when pedal-
ing can be adjusted via the operating unit 10. The assis-
tance level can be changed anytime, even during riding.
Note: For individual versions, it is possible that the assis-
tance level is preset and cannot be changed. It is also pos-
sible that fewer assistance levels are available for selection
than listed here.
The following assistance levels (max.) are available:
– "OFF": The motor assistance is switched off, the eBike
can be operated as a normal bicycle through pedaling.
– "ECO": Effective assistance at maximum efficiency for
maximum cruising range
– "TOUR": Uniform assistance, for touring with long cruis-
ing range
– "SPORT": Powerful assistance for sporty off-road rid-
ing, as well as for urban traffic
– "TURBO": Maximum assistance, supporting the highest
speed for sporty riding
To increase the assistance level, press the "+" button 13
on the operating unit until the desired assistance level is
displayed in indicator b; to decrease the assistance level,
press the "–" button 12.

When the on-board computer is removed from the holder

board computer is reset to the "OFF" mode.
Once it is switched on, the eBike system is in the "OFF"
mode.
Back-pedaling function (optional)
If the push assistance is switched on, the pedals will also ro-
tate on bikes with back-pedaling function. If the rotating
pedals are blocked, the push assistance will be switched
off.
Switching bike lights On/Off
If your lights are set up to be powered by the eBike system,
then you can use the 2 button on the on-board computer to
simultaneously switch both the front light and the rear light
on and off.
When the lighting is switched on, "Lights on" appears, and
when the lighting is switched off, "Lights off" appears for
approx. 1 s in the text indicator d. The light symbol c is dis-
played when the light is on.
Switching the driving light on and off has no effect on the
backlighting for the display. The backlighting for the display
is active as soon as the system or the display is switched on.

The following functions are available in the function indica-
tor (combination of text indicator d and value indicator e):

reset
– "Avg. speed": Average speed achieved since the last
