Do not charge your battery over a long period
of time, if you do not need it.

Lithium-ion batteries have no memory effect;
they can therefore be charged at any time
without affecting battery life.

Kids’ bikes
Useful information for parents
Children are among the most vulnerable road user
groups, not only because of their lack of experience and
practice, but also for the simple reason that they are
smaller and may therefore have difficulties overseeing
things and be easily overlooked by other road users.
If you want your child to use his/her MERIDA bike on
the road, you should be willing to invest time in road
safety instruction and help him/her improve his/her rid-
ing skills
(b+c)
. Children are not as observant as adults,
and you should therefore get into the routine of checking
the MERIDA kids’ bike and performing adjustments and
maintenance as necessary. If you are in doubt or if you
have any questions, contact your MERIDA dealer.
Bear in mind that it is your responsibility to supervise
your child on his/her first rides and do not overchallenge
your child! Inform yourself about the traffic rules in your
country. They vary from country to country.
It is essential that your child has good control of his/her
MERIDA bike
(d)
before riding on public roads. As a first
step in this direction we recommend that you give your
child a scooter or a pedalless bike so that he/she can
train his/her sense of balance.
