RECOMMENDATION: Your bicycle should undergo a revision by a professional every 6
months, in order to ascertain that it is working properly and safe to use. It is the user's
responsibility to ensure that all the components are working correctly before use.
Choose a safe spot, away from traffic, to familiarise yourself with your new bicycle. The assistance may
be triggered with force, check that your handlebar is straight and that the road is clear.
Make sure that you are in good health before getting on your bicycle.
In the case of unusual weather conditions (rain, cold, night time...), be particularly vigilant and adapt
your speed and your reactions accordingly.
When transporting your bicycle on the outside of your vehicle (bicycle carrier, roof rack ...), it is strongly
recommended to remove the battery and store it in a cool place.
The user must comply with the requirements of the national regulations when the bicycle is used on
public roads (lighting and signalling for example).
