WARNING
To ensure safe riding
•
Do not give too much of your attention to the
cycle computer display while riding, otherwise
accidents may result.
•
Check that the wheels are securely installed to
the bicycle before commencing riding. If the
wheels are not securely installed, the bicycle may
fall over and cause serious injury.
•
If riding a power-assisted bicycle, make sure that
you are fully familiar with the starting-off
characteristics of the bicycle before riding it on
roads with several vehicle lanes and pedestrian
footpaths. If the bicycle starts off suddenly,
accidents may result.
•
Check that the bicycle lights illuminate before
riding at night.
Using the product safely
•
Be sure to remove the battery and charging cable before
wiring or attaching parts to the bicycle. Otherwise, an
electric shock may result.
•
When charging the battery while it is installed on the
bicycle, do not move the bicycle. The power plug for the
battery charger may come loose and not be fully inserted
into the electrical outlet, resulting in risk of fire.
•
Do not touch the drive unit when it has been
continuously used for a long period of time. The surface
of the drive unit becomes hot and could cause burns.
•
Periodically clean the chain using an appropriate chain
cleaner. The frequency of maintenance will vary
depending on the riding conditions.
•
Do not use alkaline or acidic cleaning agents for
removing rust under any circumstances. If such cleaning
agents are used, they may damage the chain and serious
injury may result.
•
When installing this product, be sure to follow the
instructions given in the user's manual. Furthermore, it is
recommended that you use only genuine SHIMANO parts
at these times. If bolts and nuts are left loosened or the
product is damaged, the bicycle may suddenly fall over
and serious injury may result.
Handling the battery
•
If any liquid leaking from the battery gets into your eyes,
immediately wash the affected area thoroughly with
clean water such as tap water without rubbing your eyes,
and seek medical advice immediately. If this is not done,
the battery liquid may damage your eyes.
•
Do not recharge the battery in places with high humidity
or outdoors. Doing so may result in electric shock.
•
Do not insert or remove the plug while it is wet. If this is
not observed, electric shocks may result. If there is water
leaking out of the plug, dry it thoroughly before
inserting it.
•
If the battery does not become fully charged even 2
hours after the designated charging time, immediately
unplug the battery from the outlet and contact the place
of purchase. Doing otherwise may cause it to overheat,
burst, or ignite. Refer to the battery charger user's
manual for the designated charging time of the battery.
•
Do not use the battery if it has any noticeable scratches
or other external damage. Doing so may cause bursting,
overheating or problems with operation.
•
The operating temperature ranges for the battery are
given below. Do not use the battery in temperatures
outside these ranges. If the battery is used or stored in
temperatures outside these ranges, fire, injury or
problems with operation may occur.
1. During discharge: -10°C - 50°C
2. During charging: 0°C - 40°C

Assist mode
You can select an assist mode for each particular application.
[BOOST][TRAIL][ECO]
Use when powerful assistance is
required, such as when riding up steep
uphill slopes. This mode is designed
for use on steep inclines and
precipitous mountains. When riding
on level public roads with traffic
lights, the assistance provided may be
excessive, in which case, switch to
[ECO] mode.
When the battery level is running low, the level of assistance is lowered to increase the traveling range.
This mode does not provide power assistance when the power is turned on. Since there is no power consumption
associated with the power assistance, it is useful for reducing battery consumption when the battery is running low.
This mode is particularly useful when walking the bicycle, taking the bicycle out up an incline or when it is bearing a
heavy load. It is also useful when walking the bicycle across uneven terrain such as rocky areas.
The intelligent walk assist function activates when an electric shifting system such as XTR, DEORE XT SEIS is connected.
System individually supplies assist power to detect gear position.
"Intelligent walk assist" support rider more torque output in steep climb condition in lower side gears.
"Quick walk assist" function works quickly by holding down SW from any mode.
*
The Walk assist mode function may not be able to be used in certain regions.
Use when an intermediate level of
assistance is needed, such as when you
want to enjoy riding comfortably on a
gentle slope or level ground.
OFF]
[
[WALK]
Use when you want to enjoy long
distance riding on level ground. When
pedaling is not very strong, the
amount of assistance is reduced and
energy consumption is lessened.
