    • Push the eBike forwards.
    • Push the eBike backward.
    • Perform a sideways tilting movement with the eBike.
  • After activation, the drive begins to push and the continuously filling white bars change colour to ice-blue.
    If you release the walk assistance (6) button, walk assistance is stopped. You can reactivate walk assistance within 10 s by pressing the walk assistance (6) button.
    If you do not reactivate walk assistance within 10 s, walk assistance automatically switches off.
    Walk assistance is always ended if:

    • The rear wheel jams,
    • The bicycle cannot move over ridges,
    • A body part is blocking the bike crank,
    • An obstacle continues to turn the crank,
    • You start pedaling,
    • The increased assistance level +/bicycle lights (4) button or on/off button (12) is pressed.
  • Walk assistance has a roll-away lock, i.e. even after walk assistance has been used, rolling backwards is actively curbed by the drive for a few seconds, and you cannot push the eBike backwards or can only do so with difficulty.
    The roll-away lock is immediately deactivated by pressing the increase assistance level +/bicycle lights (4) button.
    The push assistance function is subject to local regulations; the way it works may therefore differ from the description above, or the function may even be deactivated completely.
