IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
• Do not operate this e-Bike without carefully reading the manual and
understanding how to operate the e-Bike.
• Wear your helmet, gloves and other protective gear before riding
to protect yourself from injury in case of an accident. We recommend
wearing bright or reflective clothes when riding at night.
• Observe rules and regulations when using this e-Bike. Passengers
should not be carried. When riding in rainy, snowy or slippery
conditions reduce your speed and increase the distance between
yourself and other vehicles.
• Your insurance policies may not provide coverage for accidents
involving the use of this e-Bike; to determine if coverage is provided
you should contact your insurance agent.
• Charge the battery in a dry place and ensure there is adequate
ventilation.
Neither the battery nor the charger should be covered during the
charging process. A lot of heat can be created during the charging
process and this has to be able to escape. Otherwise this could
lead to a danger of overheating or a possible hazard. We recommend
charging under supervision or with the user present. Only use an
Erikson charger to charge the battery.
• If planning to store the battery for a long time without using it, make
sure to charge it before storing. The battery is best preserved in
a cool and dry environment. It also needs to be charged once a month
if planning to store for several months.
• Lock then remove the key before riding. Otherwise, you may injure
yourself on the protruding key, lose or damage the key, or the battery
could become loose and fall out. This could result in accidents and
injury.
• The e-Bike should not be left out in the rain for a long time or
submerged because if water enters into the controller and motor
wheel, it may cause short circuit and damage the electrical
components.
• Keep appropriate air pressure inside the tires, so as to avoid
increased friction when riding, as low air pressure may easily wear
the tires and deform the rim.
• When riding with high speed or downhill, use the rear brake to avoid
the center of gravity from moving ahead, as using the front brake may
result in a shift in the center of gravity and may be dangerous.
• Do not alter any components on the e-Bike. Any changes to
the e-Bike not approved by Erikson will nullify the warranty
on the manufacturer’s side and may result to damage or injury.
