Technical Assistance - Elite DIRETO Mode D'emploi

stallation or if you cannot install the cassette. The warranty does
not cover any damage to the bicycle and/or Direto in the event
of incorrect installation.
MAINTENANCE
Direto does not require any specific scheduled maintenance,
however the following precautions are recommended:
- wipe the trainer clean with a cloth after each training session
to prevent the accumulation of dust and sweat;
- do not clean or degrease the bicycle chain while the bike is
mounted on Direto as solvents can cause irreparable damage to
the bearings or other internal mechanical parts;
- check that the quick release is properly secured and fully wor-
king before every training session.
Some transmission belt slippage might occur after multiple uses
or after particularly strenuous training sessions, as belt tension
diminishes; you might perceive it via a resistance variation while
pedaling.
WARNING!: Make sure the re-tensioning procedure has been
pre-approved by Elite's tech assistance department before re-
tensioning the belt. Breaking the anti-tampering seal invalidates
the product's warranty.
WARNINGS
- Direto becomes hot during use. Wait for it to cool before tou-
ching the resistance unit covers.
- Use the Direto trainer as described in the manual.
- Direto is not equipped with an emergency brake.
- Direto has been designed and manufactured to ensure maxi-
mum safety of the user and/or third parties, but people, children
and pets should be kept away from the trainer during use as
contact with the moving parts of the trainer and the bicycle may
result in damage or injury.
- Never put your fingers or foreign objects of any kind through the
slots on Direto, as there will be high risk of damage to the trainer
and/or serious physical injury.
- Before you start training, place the trainer in a suitable location,
away from any potentially dangerous objects (furniture, tables,
chairs...) so as to avoid any risk of accidental or inadvertent
contact.
- The Direto is to be used by only single rider at a time.
- The max weight limit of the user is 113 kg / 250 lb in accor-
dance with the referenced norm EN 957-1 Class HC.
- Always check the safety and stability of the bicycle on Direto
before training.
- No part of the product has any use beyond its original appli-
cation. The warranty will be void if the unit has been opened or
tampered with.
- Since the feet are made of soft non-slip material, they may
leave traces of rubber on the floor during use.
- If the trainer needs to be shipped for technical support and/or
any other reason, it must be shipped in its original box. Damage
due to a failure to use the original packaging is not covered by
the warranties.
Note: before shipping your trainer or any of its parts for technical
support, you must first consult Elite or its distributor or your de-
aler. Any items received without prior agreement will be rejected
- Do not leave the charger plugged in while not in use.
- Do not store the Direto in cold and damp places. This may
damage its electronic components.
- Use only the supplied charger.
PACKAGING
If the roller needs to be shipped, careful packaging is critical:
- remove the charger cable from the Direto;
- put the cable in a humidity-free container;
- pack up the Direto in its original box.
During shipments, packs often undergo mistreatment and very
hard impacts, therefore inadequate packing can result in perma-
nent damage to the roller. This type of damage is not covered
by the warranty.
Note: before sending the roller or any other component assistan-
ce, always firstly consult Elite or the distributor.
