1. Safety Notes
1.1) Personal Safety:
It is the owner’s/rider’s responsibility to properly assemble their bike and inspect all components and ensure
all nuts and bolts are properly tightened for safety or to trust a 3
rd
party to do so. This is important for all
bikes and even more critical for safety on an electric bike. Failure to do so may result in serious injury and/or
death.
This e-bike is intended for use on paved roads or paths only. Using the e-bike for any other purpose may
result in serious injury. Before you ride this e-bike in a busy area or on public roads, practice riding in a safe
area free of hazards. Take time to learn the e-bike’s controls and power. It is your responsibility to identify
and follow all local laws and regulations, including fitting your e-bike with any additional equipment
necessary to comply with local laws. At night your e-bike MUST have white front lights and red rear lights lit.
It MUST also be fitted with a red rear reflector and amber pedal reflectors. Use caution when loading your
e-bike into a car or when mounting it on a bicycle carrier. You must avoid damaging the wires of the electrical
components during riding, transporting, and storing your electric bike.
1.2) E-bike Safety:
You must be 18 or over to ride this e-bike.
Your e-bike is designed for a maximum permitted overall weight
(rider + cargo) of 275lbs. Your bike must be inspected or assembled by someone experienced with bike
mechanics prior to use. Proper assembly and inspection of all nuts and bolts are vital for safety and for your
warranty coverage as damages due to improper assembly are not covered under warranty. Improper
assembly of critical components could lead to serious injury and or death. Do not submerge your e-bike in
water. Be aware that the speed at which you are traveling may be faster than you are used to, especially
when accelerating.

1.3) Electrical Safety:
Only use the charger supplied by Ride1UP. Do not store the bike or battery plugged into a wall outlet. Unplug
the battery before leaving the bike alone. Never modify the charger in any way. The charger has been
designed for a specific voltage, always check that the outlet’s voltage is the same as that stated on the rating
label. A charger that is suitable for one type of battery pack may create a risk of fire when used with another
battery pack; never use the charger with another appliance or attempt to charge this product with another
charger. Before use, check the charger cord for signs of damage. A damaged or entangled charger cord
increases the risk of fire and electric shock. Keep the charger cord away from hot surfaces and sharp edges.
