Using your bicycle
05
Disk type brakes require a certain "running in
period" before they reach their full efficiency.
The general rule is as follows:
- The brakes are considered to have been
"run in" after carrying out 30 brief braking
manoeuvres at medium speed (approx. 25
km/h).
Avoid long excursions until the braking sys-
tem running in period has been completed.
Once the braking system has been run in, the
braking force will be noticeably greater.
Operating the brake levers too sharply
may cause the wheels to lock.
The rear brake accounts for (approx.) 65% of
the total braking force. To obtain the maxi-
mum braking force, operate the two levers
simultaneously.

-
To move forward, place your left foot on the
left hand pedal and your right foot on the right
hand pedal.
-
This action may be performed either while sit-
ting on the saddle, or standing up in the ped-
als.
-
Release both the brake levers.
-
Start pedalling.
-
ENJOY YOURSELF!
Do not leave the bicycle where it may be
exposed to direct sunlight: the battery pack
may over heat causing the safety device to
intervene.
5. WHAT TO DO FOLLOWING A
FALL
-
In the event of a fall or an accident, contact your
vendor immediately in order carry out a thor-
ough check on your bicycle before reusing it.
-
Do not attempt to ride your bicycle again until
it has been inspected by the vendor, and re-
paired if necessary.
