YOU-RIDE BARCELONA
1. General Warning
Like any sport, bicycling involves risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride an
electric bicycle, you assume the responsibility for that risk, so you need to know (and
to practice) the rules of safe and responsible riding and proper use and maintenance.
Proper use and maintenance of your electric bicycle reduces risk of injury.
This Manual contains many “Warnings” and “Cautions” concerning the consequences
of failure to maintain or inspect your electric bicycle and of failure to follow safe
cycling practices.
• The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word
WARNING
indicates
a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury
or death.
• The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word
CAUTION
indicates a
potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or moderate
injury, or is an alert against unsafe practices.
• The word
CAUTION
used without the safety alert symbol indicates a situation
which, if not avoided, could result in serious damage to the bicycle or the voiding of
your warranty.
Many of the Warnings and Cautions say “you may lose control and fall”.
Because any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not always
repeat the warning of possible injury or death. Because it is impossible to anticipate
every situation or condition which can occur while riding, this manual makes no
representation about the safe use of the bicycle under all conditions. There are risks
associated with the use of any bicycle which cannot be predicted or avoided, and
which are the sole responsibility of the rider.
• Please wear a safety helmet to avoid injury. Personal protective equipment is
required.
• Please observe your local traffic laws and regulations when driving the electric bike.
• If the charger cord is damaged, have it repaired by the manufacturer, its service or
a similarly qualified person in order to avoid any hazard.
• The cord should always be readily accessible.
• The device is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capacity. Persons who have not read the manual,
unless they have received explanations by a person responsible for their safety and
supervision should not use this unit.
• Children should be monitored to ensure that they do not play with the device.
• The charger is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced
