Conditions of use for this power-
assisted bicycle
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,
responsibility falls to the parents who 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 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. 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 pedalling.
It must be properly maintained according to the instructions in this user
guide.
WARNING:
As for any mechanical component, a power-
assisted bicycle is subject to high stress and will wear out.
The different materials and components can react
differently to wear or ageing. If the expected service life of
a component has been exceeded, it may suddenly break,
