After A Fall - PINARELLO nytroDUST Benutzerhandbuch Und Wartung

10. AFTER A FALL

In case of a fall, we recommend the following checks before resuming your ride:
1.
Check that the battery is still properly seated and free of visible damage. If there is visible
damage, do not use the pedal assist. A damaged battery could short-circuit, or water and humidity
could enter it, or it could ignite or explode. If the battery is damaged, contact your Pinarello dealer
immediately.
2. Check the display for error or warning signals. If there are any signals, turn off the system, wait
about ten minutes and turn it on again. If the warning or error signals reoccur, turn off the system
and do not use pedal assist. Check the motor manufacturer manual for further information and
immediately contact your Pinarello dealer. Do not use the pedal assist if there are warning or error
signals.
3. Check that the wheels are still securely attached and that the rims are still centred in the
frame and fork.
4. Check that the handlebar and stem are not broken or deformed. Check that the handlebar is
still properly connected to the fork by turning the handlebar against light resistance and verifying
that the wheel turns properly. Apply the brakes and lightly force the handlebar to check that the
brake system is still solidly attached to the bike and working.
5. Make sure the chain is correctly positioned on the chainring and cassette. Raise the rear
wheel and check the operation of the rear derailleur. Check especially that the derailleur does not
come too close to the spokes when moving the chain onto the larger cassette sprockets. If the
rear derailleur comes too close, there is a risk that it will end up between the spokes and cause a
fall, with consequent danger to the safety of the user and the integrity of the bike.
6. Check the position of the saddle.
7. Check that there are no abnormal noises coming from the bike by lifting and letting it bounce
from a low height.
8. Visually check for cracks, deformation or altered paint.
Once you have completed these checks, you can resume riding to return to base, without forcing
on the pedals or brakes, and paying close attention to any abnormal behaviour or noises. In case
of abnormal behaviour, do not use the bike.
After you have returned home, take the bike to your local Pinarello dealer for a complete and
accurate inspection.
