Important Safety Information
Guidelines that require replacement, contact the place of purchase or
a bicycle dealer.
WARNING
• Maintenance interval depends on the usage and riding
circumstances. Clean regularly the chain with an appropriate
chaincleaner. Never use alkali based or acid based solvents such as
rust cleaners. If those solvent be used chain might break and cause
serious injury.
• Check the chain for any damage (deformation or crack), skipping, or
other abnormalities such as unintended gear shifting. If any
problems are found, consult a dealer or an agency. The chain may
break, and you may fall.
• After reading the user's manual carefully, keep it in a safe place for
later reference.
Note
• If gear shifting operations cannot be carried out smoothly, clean the
derailleur and lubricate all moving parts.
• You should periodically wash the sprockets in a neutral detergent.
In addition, cleaning the chain with neutral detergent and
lubricating it can be an effective way of extending the useful life of
the sprockets and the chain.
• Products are not guaranteed against natural wear and deterioration
from normal use and aging.
• For maximum performance we highly recommend Shimano
lubricants and maintenance products.
