INFORMATION REGARDING RISKS AND
DANGERS AND WAYS TO GUARD AGAINST THEM
In order to minimize all risks and dangers from electrocution and to guard
against any fire, burn, damage, prejudice, injury or injury that could cause
death and that could result directly or indirectly from the battery of the EAB,
the general precautions regarding electrical devices are applicable.
The slightest electrical discharge can cause serious injuries and you
must read all the instructions with care. Without limiting the generality of
the preceding, and in addition to the instructions in the Owner’s Manual,
EBGO recommends that you never touch hot surfaces, use only the battery
and the original charger recommended by EBGO, always use the specific
charging equipment to charge the battery, never expose the battery or the
charger to heat, never dismantle or modify the battery or the charger, do
not expose the battery or the charger to liquids, do not use a damaged
battery or charger, stop charging the battery if the charge is incomplete
at the end of the theoretical charging time, stop use of the battery and
charger if they emit an unusual odour, become hotter than usual or if
something seems abnormal, never leave the battery and charger where
they can be reached by children, and here we urge that extreme vigilance
is necessary in this regard, never touch the battery or charger with wet
hands, never turn on the battery or charger if they have damaged cables
or tie downs or if the battery or charger have any kind of malfunction or
have been damaged in any way, always take the battery and charger back
to the EBGO for maintenance, examination, repair or setting, always make
sure to correctly connect the charger to the battery and the charger only
to alternating current of 110V A.C., do not use a battery or charger if they
are dusty, do not use the charger with other than the specified current, do
personally check the battery and charger for any damage, do not leave the
battery and charger near an electrical heating appliance, a gas or micro-
wave appliance, do not touch the charger or the battery for too long during
battery charging, do not position the charger or the battery in an unstable
Consequently, non-compliance with these instructions and recommen-
dations renders EBGO warranties null and void and exonerates EBGO
from any liability toward the Owner.

manner and do not cover the battery or the charger or hang anything from
them and never use the battery and charger for any use other than the one
for which they have been designed.
In order to minimize all risks and dangers and to guard against any da-
mage, prejudice, injury and injury that could cause death, EBGO recom-
mends to the Owner to ride carefully on bicycle paths and not on public
roads.
Even if the local competent authorities allow riding on public roads, the
Owner will do so at his or her risk and peril. In addition to the general rules
that apply to riding on bicycle paths or public roads, the Highway Safety
Code, L.R.Q. chap. C-24.2 contains special provisions for users of EAB
and these must be followed to protect against all risks and dangers that are
inherent to the use of an EAB.
The EAB must be checked periodically by a EAB technician as part of
regular maintenance and to spot stress and/or potential failures including
but without limiting the generality of the preceding, cracks, deformations,
corrosion, paint chipping dents and for any other indications of potential
problems, improper use or abuse. These periodic inspections are proven
essential safety measures that can prevent accidents and injuries to the
Owner.
Negligence or non-compliance with these regulations can cause serious in-
juries to the Owner and may, in certain cases, cause death. Consequently,
non-compliance with these instructions and recommendations renders the
warranties given by EBGO null and void and exonerates EBGO from all
liability toward the Owner.
