Usage Restrictions; Safety - O2Feel Bikes Urbain Manuel D'utilisation

1.3 Usage restrictions

When buying your bike, please make sure
that it is suitable for your intended use (see
1.2 Model guide)
All of O2Feel's bikes are "electrically
power assisted", which means that the
assistance only kicks in when you pedal.
In accordance with the NF EN 15194
standard, assistance is also limited to
25km/hr. If you exceed this speed, the
motor will stop supplying power.
Pedalling can be harder when assistance
is deactivated or when the battery is low.
In addition, an electric bike is heavier than
a classic bike. Make sure you have enough
battery power to complete your journey or
that you are capable of completing your
journey without assistance, as the case may
be.
The maximum ranges provided can vary and
depend on a number of factors, including

1.4 Safety

Cycling involves risks, including in particular
falling o , which can cause injuries. O2Feel
therefore recommends that users wear an
appropriate helmet (NF EN 1078). Wearing
a helmet is compulsory in France for any
child under 12, whether they are cycling or
a passenger.
An electric bike may behave di erently
from a classic bike, due to the assistance
and the weight. It is a good idea to
familiarise yourself with your bike before
using it on a public highway.
When you cycle on a public highway, always
make sure you follow the highway code for
the country in which you are cycling.
When you buy your O2Feel e-bike, it will
have been checked and adjusted by a
professional, to guarantee your enjoyment,
(but not limited to): weight of the cyclist,
weight of the load, gradient, condition of
the road, level of assistance chosen etc.
Any attempts to remove the limitations
of your O2feel e-bike are strongly
discouraged. This would in fact make
your bike illegal to cycle on public
highways and would result in using it
beyond the restrictions for which it has
been designed. This would automatically
invalidate the guarantee.
The bikes are subject to load restrictions that
take into account the weight of the cyclist,
added to which is the weight of any luggage
and accessories. If this limit is exceeded, this
will invalidate the guarantee.
comfort and safety. In order to uphold these
standards, it is a good idea to have your bike
serviced regularly by your approved O2feel
reseller.
Check your tyre pressure whenever you
are about to go out. The recommended
pressure is indicated on the side of the tyre.
Regularly check that the screws are tight
(pannier, stem, handlebars, wheels, brakes,
saddle).
For folding models, you must regularly
check to make sure the locking levers
on the frame and stem are tight, to avoid
the bike unfolding unexpectedly, which
might cause falls and injuries.
