General Safety Information
WARNING
– To avoid serious injuries:
Obtain and read the service instructions
carefully prior to installing the parts. Loose,
worn, or damaged parts may cause serious
injury to the rider.
We strongly recommend only using genuine
Shimano replacement parts.
It is important to completely understand the
operation of your bicycle's brake system.
Improper use of your bicycle's brake system
may result in a loss of control or an accident,
which could lead to severe injury. Because
each bicycle may handle differently, be sure to
learn the proper braking technique (including
brake lever pressure and bicycle control
characteristics) and operation of your bicycle.
This can be done by consulting your
professional bicycle dealer and the bicycle's
owners manual, and by practicing your riding
and braking technique.
These brake levers are equipped with a mode
switching mechanism to make them
compatible with cantilever brakes and roller
brakes or V-BRAKE brakes with power
modulator.
If the incorrect mode is selected it
may cause either excessive or
insufficient braking force to occur,
which could result in dangerous
accidents.
Be sure to select the mode in
accordance with the instructions
given in the table below.

Use the brake levers with mode switching

Read these Technical Service Instructions
carefully, and keep them in a safe place for
later reference.
CAUTION
– To avoid serious injuries:
Be sure to shift the lever one gear at a time, and
reduce the force being applied to the pedals
during shifting. If you try to force operation of the
shifting lever while the pedals are being turned
strongly, your feet may come off the pedals and
the bicycle may topple over, which could result
in serious injury.
NOTE:
For maximum performance we highly
recommend Shimano lubricants and
maintenance products.
Parts are not guaranteed against natural wear
or deterioration resulting from normal use.
