5. Safety information
• Do not short the contacts of the battery pack. Doing so could cause the battery pack to become hot or
catch fire, resulting in serious injury or property damage.
• Do not disassemble or modify the battery pack. Doing so could cause the battery pack to become hot or
catch fire, resulting in serious injury or property damage.
• If the power cable is damaged, stop using the battery charger and have it inspected at an authorized
dealer.
• Do not turn the pedals or move the bicycle while the battery charger is connected. Doing so could cause
the power cable to become tangled in the pedals, resulting in damage to the battery charger, power
cable, and/or plug.
• Handle the power cable with care. Connecting the battery charger from indoors while the bicycle is out-
doors could result in the power cable becoming pinched and damaged in a doorway or window.
• Do not run over the power cable or plug with the wheels of the bicycle. Doing so could result in damage
to the power cable or plug.
• Do not drop the battery pack or subject it to impact. Doing so could cause the battery pack to become
hot or catch fire, resulting in serious injury or property damage.
• Do not dispose of the battery pack in a fire or expose it to a heat source. Doing so could cause fire or
explosion, resulting in serious injury or property damage.
• Do not modify or disassemble the e-bike systems. Do not install anything other than genuine parts and
accessories. Doing so could result in product damage or malfunction, or increase your risk of injury.
• When stopped, be sure to apply the front and rear brakes and keep both feet on the ground. Placing
one's foot on the pedals when stopped may unintentionally engage the power assist function, which
could result in loss of control and serious injury.
• Do not ride the bicycle if there is any irregularity with the battery pack or e-bike systems. Doing so could
lead to loss of control and serious injury.
• Be sure to check the residual battery capacity before riding at night. About 2 hours after power assist is
no longer being provided because the voltage is too low the light will turn off. Riding at night without an
operating light can increase your risk of injury.
• Do not start off by running with one foot on a pedal and one foot on the ground and then mounting the
bicycle after it has reached a certain speed. Doing so could result in loss of control or serious injury. Be
sure to start riding only after you are seated properly on the bicycle seat.
• Do not press the pushing assist switch if the rear tire is off the ground. The tire will turn at high speed in
air, and could catch and tangle up nearby items.
• Do not remove the display while riding the bicycle. Doing so will turn off the power assist, and could
result in the bicycle falling over.
