• Do not attempt to fix the display or remote control
  while riding!
• Do not allow yourself to be distracted by the display of the onboard computer.
  If you do not concentrate exclusively on the traffic around you, you risk being involved in an accident. If you want to change any settings on the onboard computer other than the assistance level, always stop before entering the relevant data.
• Set the display brightness such that you can adequately see important information like speed or warning symbols. An incorrectly set display brightness can result in dangerous situations.
• Do not open the onboard computer. Opening the onboard computer can result in irreparable damage and void your warranty.
• Do not use the onboard computer as a handle.
  Lifting the eBike up by the on-board computer can cause irreparable damage to the on-board computer.
• Do not stand your bicycle upside down on its saddle and handlebars if the onboard computer or its holder protrudes from the handlebars. This may irreparably damage the n-board computer or the holder. Also, remove the onboard computer before placing the bicycle on a wall mount to ensure that the onboard computer does not fall off or become damaged.
• Do not enter information or make selections while riding. Interacting with the display unit while riding can lead to accidents causing serious injury or death. You must observe road and traffic conditions, and comply with traffic laws at all times.
• Accessing other apps, reading pop-up messages/other content, or otherwise using your mobile device while operating an eBike may be distracting. Distracted driving is a  serious safety concern and can lead to accidents causing serious injury or death. In order to prevent distracted driving, most mobile devices come equipped with a “Do Not  Disturb” mode. The “Do Not Disturb” mode should be used while operating an eBike. Please consult your device-specific instructions for more information. You, as the eBike operator, are fully responsible for ensuring that you pay attention to road conditions and comply with traffic laws at all times.
• Do not activate the push assistance function while riding on the bike. Only use the push assistance function when pushing the bike.
