Classification
(1) A “class 1 electric bicycle,” or “low-speed pedal-assisted
electric bicycle,” is a bicycle equipped with a motor that provides
assistance only when the rider is pedaling, and that ceases to
provide assistance when the bicycle reaches the speed of 20
miles per hour.
(2) A “class 2 electric bicycle,” or “low-speed throttle-assisted
electric bicycle,” is a bicycle equipped with a motor that may be
used exclusively to propel the bicycle, and that is not capable of
providing assistance when the bicycle reaches the speed of 20
miles per hour.
(3) A “class 3 electric bicycle,” or “speed pedal-assisted electric
bicycle,” is a bicycle equipped with a motor that provides
assistance only when the rider is pedaling, and that ceases to
provide assistance when the bicycle reaches the speed of 28
miles per hour.

3.6.1 Rider
The rider:
• receives instruction before the first ride. He/she can
clarify any questions relating to the operating
instructions with the user or the BULLS specialist
dealer.
• wears personal protective equipment.
• assumes all the responsibilities of the user when
ridding the bicycle.
3.6.2 •
User
The user has the duty of care and responsibility for
scheduling these measures and checking that they are
implemented.
The user:
• makes these operating instructions available to the
rider for the duration of use of the bicycle. If
necessary, he translates the operating instructions
into a language which the rider understands.
• familiarises the rider with the functions of the bicycle
before the first ride. Only riders who have received
instruction must be allowed to ride the bicycle.
• instructs the rider on proper use and the wearing of
personal protective equipment.
• employs specialist staff only for maintenance and
repair of the bicycle.

Description
The bicycle does not have a separate emergency stop
or emergency shut-off button. The drive system can be
stopped in case of emergency by removing the display.
The motor switches off automatically as soon as the
rider no longer pedals, the temperature is outside the
permitted range, there is an overload or the shut-off
speed limit has been reached.
A pushing aid can be activated. The pushing aid
continues to drive the bicycle as long as the rider
pushes the plus button on the handlebars. The
maximum speed can be 3.75 mph here. The drive
stops when the plus button is released.
4.6.1 Battery
The lithium ion battery has an internal electronic
protection circuit. It is matched to the charger and the
bicycle. The temperature of the battery is monitored
constantly. The battery is safeguarded against deep
discharge, overcharging, overheating and short
circuit. In case of a risk the battery is switched off
automatically by a protective circuit. The battery also
switches to sleep mode for self-protection when not
used for a longer period.
The service life of the battery can be extended if it is
well cared for and, above all, stored at the correct
temperatures. Even if the battery is cared for
properly, the charge status of the battery reduces as
it ages. If the operating time is severely shortened
after charging, this is a sign that the battery is spent.

5.1 Transportation
Crash caused by unintentional activation
! CAUTION
There is a risk of injury if the drive system is activated
unintentionally.
Remove the battery before the bicycle is
transported.
Risk of fire and explosion due to high
! CAUTION temperatures
Excessively high temperatures damage the batteries.
The batteries may self-ignite and explode.
Never expose the battery to sustained direct
sunlight.
If the bicycle is lying flat, oil and grease may leak from
NOTICE the bicycle.
If the shipping carton with a bicycle is lying flat or on
one end, it does not provide sufficient protection from
damage to the frame and the wheels.
Only transport the bicycle in an upright position.
Bicycle rack systems which secure the bicycle
NOTICE standing on its head by the handlebars or frame,
generate inadmissible forces on the components
during transportation. This can cause the supporting
parts to break.
Never use bicycle rack systems which secure the
bicycle standing on its head by the handlebars or
frame.

! CAUTION activation
There is a risk of injury if the drive system is activated
unintentionally.
Remove the battery if the battery is not absolutely
necessary for assembly.
5.3.1 Unpacking
Hand injuries caused by cardboard packaging
! CAUTION
The shipping carton is closed with metal staples. There
is a risk of puncture wounds and cuts when unpacking
and crushing the packaging.
Wear suitable hand protection.
Remove the metal staples with pliers before the
shipping carton is opened.
The packaging material consists mainly of cardboard
and plastic film.

5.3.3 Commissioning
Fire and explosion caused by incorrect charger
! CAUTION
Batteries which are charged with an unsuitable
charger, may become internally damaged. This may
result in fire or an explosion.
Only ever use the battery with the supplied charger.
To prevent mix-ups, mark the supplied charger and
these operating instructions clearly, for example
with the frame number or type number of the bicycle.
Given that initial commissioning of the bicycle requires
special tools and specialist knowledge, it must be
performed by trained specialist staff only.
Experience has shown that a bicycle which has not yet
been sold, is spontaneously handed to consumers as
soon as it appears ready to ride.
Every bicycle must be prepared so that it is in fully
usable condition immediately after being set up.
Initial commissioning includes the following work:

Clamping
Only clamp the seat post when the bicycle is
stationary.
The seat post clamping lever is not marked with any
lettering. You can tell whether it is open or closed from
its shape.
• To close it, push the seat post clamping lever as far as
it will go into the seat post.
• To open it, pull the seat post clamping lever away from
the seat post.

Operation
Check that the lighting, reflector and brake, for instance, are
sufficiently clean.
You must check that the mudguards, the pannier rack and the
chain guard are securely installed.
Check that the front and rear wheels run true. This is particularly
important if the bicycle has been transported or secured with a
lock.
Check the front and rear wheel brakes to make sure that they
are working properly. To do so, operate the brake levers while
the bicycle is stationary in order to check whether resistance is
generated in the usual brake lever position.
Check the quick releases to make sure that they are fully closed
in their final position.

7.4 Battery
Risk of fire and explosion due to faulty battery
! WARNING The safety electronics on damaged or faulty batteries
may fail. The residual voltage can cause a short
circuit. The batteries may self-ignite and explode.
Remove batteries with external damage from
service immediately and never charge them.
If the battery becomes deformed or begins to
smoke, keep at a safe distance, disconnect the
power supply at the socket, and notify the fire
service immediately.
Never extinguish damaged batteries with water or
allow them to come into contact with water.
If a battery is dropped or struck but shows no signs
of external damage, remove the battery from
service and observe it for at least 24 hours.
Faulty batteries are hazardous goods. Dispose of
faulty batteries properly and as quickly as possible.
Store in a dry place until disposal. Never store in
the vicinity of flammable substances.
Never open or repair the battery.
