Tips for safety and general use (3.4.1)
CAUTION!
Important tips for the prevention of accidents.
This information is for your own safety!
Please read this information carefully and follow it before use!
1. Only one person of 120 kg max. is permitted to use the bike.
2. The use of this bike is recommended only for people who are
physically and psychologically capable of driving it in public
traffic situations.
3. As a beginner you should at first exercise special care.
4. Make yourself familiar with traffic regulations! To drive properly
and safely you should avoid any sudden changes of direction
when travelling at speed or when cornering.
5. Always hold the handlebars firmly with both hands when riding
and braking, or steering errors could cause a greater risk of
accident.
6. The bike is a mechanical mobility aid. Its speed must take into
account the technical specifications and environment it is used
in which it is being used.
7. Do not use the bike in darkness or twilight. However if you do
need to drive in these conditions, always use lights. For longer
journeys we recommend carrying replacement batteries.
8. Always drive on tarmac or firm, level surfaces. Driving over
curbs, steps or potholes increases the risk of the bike tipping
over.
9. Adapt your method of driving to your experience. In particular
drive particularly slowly and carefully round corners.
10. Never put your hands close to the chain.
11. Before you travel, visually inspect the bike for tears and other
damage.
12. Have the bike serviced regularly by your supplier.
Before each journey the following safety checks should be
carried out
1. Before each journey check the screw connections on the rear
wheels.
2. Check tyre pressure before each journey. Low tyre pressure
could cause you to tip over at corners, leads to increased wear
and tear and increases rolling resistance (drag).
3. Avoid damage to the Bowden cables for the gear and brake
units. In particular on transfer and through incorrect turning
there is a risk of snapping them.
4. Check that the footrests are firmly fixed.
5. Check all components, in particular check that all screws are
tight.
6. Ensure that your feet are fixed in the footrests using the
Velcro® straps before starting off, to avoid severe injury.
7. Wear a safety helmet.
8. Always ride with the safety flag, otherwise you may not be seen
by other road users because the bike is low.
