Observe the legal regulations concerning off-road cycling. These
regulations may differ in each country. Please respect nature when
riding off-road. Only use your bicycle on signposted, well maintained
trails and hard-surface roads.
First we would like to familiarise you with the various components
used on your CUBE EPO pedelec. Please unfold the cover of these
supplementary instructions. Here your will find the diagram of a
CUBE EPO pedelec including rechargeable battery, display and
charger as well as all the essential components. Leave the page un-
folded as you read so that you can easily locate the components as
they are referred to in the text.

For your own safety, never do work on your bicycle unless
you feel absolutely sure about it. If you are in doubt or if
you have any questions, contact your CUBE bicycle dealer.

Read in any case the detailed general CUBE handbook that
you have received from your CUBE dealer.
Before you set off, let us point out a few things that are very impor-
tant to every cyclist: Never ride without a properly adjusted helmet
and without glasses and take care to always wear suitable clothing.
As a minimum you should wear straight cut trousers and shoes fitting
the pedal system. Always ride carefully on public roads and observe
the traffic rules so as not to endanger yourself or others.
This manual cannot teach you how to ride. Please be aware that cy-
cling is a hazardous activity that requires the rider to stay in control
of his or her CUBE EPO pedelec at all times.
Like any sport, cycling involves the risk of injury and damage. Keep
this in mind. When you decide to ride a CUBE EPO pedelec you need
to accept the risk inherent to cycling. Please note that on a CUBE EPO
pedelec you have no protection technique around you (e.g. ABS,
bodywork or airbag) like you have in a car. Therefore, always ride
carefully and do respect the other traffic participants. Never ride un-
der the influence of prescription drugs, drugs, medication, alcohol or
when you are tired. Do not ride with a second person on your CUBE
EPO pedelec and never ride without having both hands on the han-
dlebars.
