Wired system control
: If the drive system control device is detached from the mount or if the
cables are disconnected or damaged, the drive system will automatically shut off. If this
happens, you will have to stop the bike, turn the system off, re-attach the computer to the base,
and then turn the system back on to resume operation.
Wireless system control:
In wireless control systems, the operation of the drive system is
controlled using radio frequencies without physical attachment. Therefore, ON/OFF activation is
determined by software programming. Please consult the manufacturer’s instructions for
information on preventing accidental activation or on restarting the drive system in the event of a
recovery from a drive system fault.
Your insurance policies
- Your insurance policies (e.g., liability, property, and injury) may not
provide coverage for accidents involving the use of this bicycle. To determine if coverage is
provided, you should contact your insurance company or agent. Also, make sure your speed
e-bike is insured and registered according to the local laws.
Ride sensibly and safely around others
- the application of power by means of the electric
motor assist means that riders can reach high speed. Riding faster increases the risks of serious
accidents.
Watch out for other vehicles, cyclists, pedestrians, and animals where you ride.
Always
operate under control and at a safe speed. Others may not be aware of you. It is your
responsibility to anticipate and to react to avoid accidents.
E-bikes are heavier than ordinary bikes
- always park the bike in a suitable safe area away from
children, cars or animals that may come into contact with it. Park the bike so that it cannot fall
over and possibly result in injuries.
Do not ride into or attempt to ride through water or to submerge any part of the bike.
If you
ride through water you can lose control of the bike or the drive-assist system can become
disabled or damage.
Y
ou can be severely injured, paralyzed, or killed in an accident if you ignore these warnings.
