TO ENSURE SAFETY
NOTICE
Be sure to also inform users of the following:
• If any malfunction or trouble occurs, consult the place of purchase.
• Be sure to attach dummy plugs to any unused E-TUBE ports.
• For installation and adjustment of the product, consult the place of purchase.
• The components are designed to be fully waterproofed to withstand wet weather riding
conditions; however, do not deliberately place them into water.
• Do not clean the bicycle with a high-pressure washer. If water gets into any of the
components, operating problems or rusting may result.
• Handle the components carefully, and avoid subjecting them to strong shock.
• Do not turn the bicycle upside down. There is a risk of damage to the cycle computer and
switch unit.
• Although the bicycle still functions as a normal bicycle even when the battery is removed,
the light will not turn on if it is connected to the electric power system. Be aware that
using the bicycle under these conditions will be considered non-observance of the road
traffic laws in Germany.
• When carrying the assist bicycle in a car, remove the battery from the bicycle and place it
on a stable surface in the car.
• Before connecting the battery, make sure that there is no water collecting in the area
where the battery will be connected (connector), and that it is not dirty.
• When charging the battery while it is mounted on the bicycle, be careful of the
following:
– Before charging, check that there is no water on the charging port or the plug of the
battery charger.
– Check that the battery mount is locked before charging.
– Do not remove the battery from the battery mount while charging.
– Do not ride with the battery charger mounted.
– Close the cap on the charging port when not charging.
– Fix the bicycle in place when charging, so that it does not tip over.
• It is recommended to use a SHIMANO genuine battery. If using a battery from another
company, be sure to read the owner's manual thoroughly prior to use.
• Some of the important information in this dealer's manual can also be found on the
device labels.
