Lighting system
If you want to ride your bike on public streets,
it must be equipped with a legal lighting sy-
stem. Do not only use your lights in the dark
but also in the twilight of dusk and dawn. Due
to laws and regulations the brightness of bicy-
cle lights may be considerably lower than that
of other vehicles.Therefore always keep in
mind that other road-users may only see you
very late or not at all.
For the Spirit, HP V
ELOTECHNIK offers two dif-
ferent dynamo lighting systems: one with a tire
dynamo and the other with a hub dynamo.
Both lighting systems come with strong LEDs
for headlamp and rear light.The LEDs last con-
siderably longer (approx. 100.000 working
hours) than a light bulb. For your safety the
lighting system has a parking light system at
the front and at the rear light, which makes
the LEDs shine a few minutes after you have
stopped riding.The electronic system is main-
tenance free. Because of the capacitors used
you don't have to worry about batteries.
The cables and the contacts can be affected by
corrosion or mechanical damage.Therefore,
check the lighting system before every ride.
Tire dynamo
You turn on the lighting system with the tire
dynamo at the rear wheel by unlocking the
swiveling mechanism of the dynamo. For this
purpose, you press the red button at the dyna-
mo until it moves towards the rear wheel.To
turn the light off, you turn the dynamo back to
its initial position by hand.
Lighting system
You switch on the tire dynamo by pressing the red button.To
switch off the dynamo move it away from the wheel.
Danger! Do not try to move the dynamo
while riding, your hands can be caught in the
wheel and be injured! To turn the lighting sy-
stem on or off stop riding, get up from your
bicycle and only then move the dynamo.
Danger! The dynamo must always be safely
fastened to the bracket at the frame, so that
it can not turn. If the screws comes loose
the dynamo can get caught in the spokes
and block the rear wheel - danger of a se-
rious fall! Always check the position and se-
cure attachment of the dynamo before a ride.
