"
" Carefully read the below instructions
DANGER
and ensure that you understand them before
transporting the bike and battery.
Transporting the bike:
Before transporting the bike and battery take the following into
consideration:
•
When you transport the bike on any means of transporta-
tion, always remove the battery to prevent damage and any
unexpected handling.
•
Use a ramp or loading bay to wheel the bicycle in or out of
the means of transportation.
Transporting the battery:
•
The batteries fall under the requirements of legislation per-
taining to hazardous substances. Undamaged batteries can
be transported on the road without any further require-
ments.
•
Only send the batteries when the housing is undamaged.
Cover open contacts with tape and pack the battery in such
a way that it does not move in the packaging. Inform the
courier that the package contains a good battery, but a haz-
ardous product nonetheless. Also take into consideration
any additional national regulations. Other transport require-
ments apply for faulty batteries.
