Conditions of use for this power-
assisted bicycle
This bicycle is equipped with an electric engine which ASSISTS the
user by providing him with an additional driving force which reduces the
effort the user has to provide. However, this only provides pedalling
ASSISTANCE, it does not replace it. You must still pedal to move
forwards, with or without power assistance.
This power-assisted bicycle is designed for urban and suburban use
and can be used in towns, on the road or on a paved surface where the
tyres are always in contact with the ground. It is equipped with power
assistance that will make all your daily trips easier, so you can go
further and for longer. Your power-assisted bicycle is an adult bicycle
for people over the age of 14. If the bicycle is used by a child, the
parents must supervise and ensure that the user is able to use the
bicycle safely.
Your bicycle is not intended for use on unpaved or damaged surfaces.
It is not intended for "off-road" use, nor for competitions. Failure to
comply with this intended use may result in a fall or an accident and
may prematurely and could irremediably deteriorate the condition of
your power-assisted bicycle.
Your power-assisted bicycle is not a moped. The aim of the assistance
is to provide a complement to your pedalling. The moment you start
pedalling, the engine will start and help you move forward. This is pedal
ASSISTANCE, but it does not replace it. You must still pedal to move
forwards, with or without power assistance.
The assistance varies according to the speed of the bicycle, significant
at start-up, less so once the bicycle has got going and then disappears
when the bicycle reaches 25 km/h. The assistance switches off as soon
as one of the two brake levers is activated or the speed exceeds 25
km/h. It will automatically resume below 23 km/h with the pedalling.
