7.1 Use of the bicycle
Before using the pedal-assisted bicycle in places open to traffic, it is advisable to familiarize yourself with the behavior of the vehicle.
The first uses must be made in private environments away from traffic, other cyclists or obstacles of any kind. The driver must adapt the driving speed of the pedal-assisted bicycle to the conditions of the route and the presence of other vehicles or pedestrians. Especially when facing curves you have to keep a moderate speed (the smaller the radius of the curve, the lower the speed). When the driver stops pedaling or the speed reaches 25 km/h, the electric motor no longer provides assistance and the bicycle proceeds completely managed by the Pedals.
It is essential to gain experience in driving the pedal-assisted bicycle, before proceeding at a high speed. In case you do not want to use the motor, simply remove the battery or set the level 0 of assistance.
7.2 Braking
To minimize the stopping distances of the vehicle it is necessary to suddenly stop the pedaling and, subsequently, apply braking force gradually so as not to destabilize the middle.
Encourage the use of the rear brake under braking to stabilize the bicycle.
DRIVING CONDUCT
Excessive braking force can trigger harmful phenomena such as locking the wheel or overturning the vehicle. It is very dangerous to brake when cornering: you may lose control of the bike.
7.3 Bicycle parking
The bicycle is not equipped with a side support stand , therefore, before abandoning the bicycle check that it is resting on a stable ground and that remains in a stable position.
The bicycle must be parked in the prepared parking areas and, in any case, without obstructing the passage paths, emergency exits , electrical panels and workstations antifire.
