the rules of safe and responsible riding and of proper use and
maintenance. Proper use and maintenance of your bicycle reduces risk of injury.
Your electric bicycle is designed for use by persons 16 years old or older. Riders must
have the physical coordination, reaction time and mental capability to ride and
manage traffic, road conditions, sudden situations and also respect the laws
governing bicycle use where they ride, regardless of age. If you have an impairment

riding any bicycle.
A
special
note
for
parents
As a parent or guardian, you are responsible for the activities and safety of your child,
and that includes making sure that the bicycle is properly fitted to the child; that it is
in good and safe operating condition; that you and your child have learned and
understand the safe operation of the bicycle; and that you and your child have
learned, understand and obey not only the applicable local motor vehicle, bicycle and
traffic laws, but also the common sense rules of safe and responsible bicycling. As a
parent, you should read this manual, as well as review its warnings and the bicycle
’
s
functions and operating procedures with your child, before letting your child ride the
bicycle.
Make sure that your child always wears an approved bicycle helmet when riding;
but also make sure that your child understands that a bicycle helmet is for
bicycling only, and must be removed when not riding. A helmet must not be worn
while playing, in play areas, on playground equipment, while climbing trees, or
at any time while not riding a bicycle. Failure to follow this warning could result
in serious injury or death.
Your electric bicycle is designed for use by persons of 16 years old and older. Do
not let a child younger than 16 years old ride the bicycle unless the local laws
state otherwise.
