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 serious injury may result.
•
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 fi re.
•
Do not inadvertently 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.
•
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
