7 Assistance by the electric motor

7.1

Operating principle of assistance

If you switch on the assistance and start pedalling, the
motor starts as soon as the rear wheel is turning.

Assistance provided by the Impulse motor comparison
The thrust delivered by the motor depends on three fac-
tors:
• Your own pedalling efort.
The motor adapts to the force you apply. If you
pedal harder, e.g. uphill or when setting of, the
power sensor detects this and delivers more power
than if you were only pedalling gently. The assis-
tance increases proportionally if you pedal harder.
This increase is more pronounced in the POWER
mode than in the SPORT and ECO modes. The
thrust is limited by the maximum motor output.

• The level of assistance you have selected.
In the power-assist mode POWER, the motor
assists you with the highest output and therefore
also uses the most energy. If you ride in the SPORT
mode, the motor produces slightly less power.
If you have selected ECO, you receive the least
amount of assistance but have the battery's maxi-
mum range at your disposal.

• How fast you ride.
When you set of on your Pedelec, the assistance
increases as you build up speed until it reaches its
maximum, just before the highest assisted speed is
achieved. The assistance then reduces automatical-
ly and switches of at roughly 25 km/h, irrespective
of the gear you are in. Depending on the power-as-
sist mode you are riding in, the transition between
riding with and without power assist may seem
more or less abrupt. This applies for the three high-
est gears. In all other gears, the motor switches of
earlier, depending on the gear ratio.
