DANGER

  • Use the dedicated charging cable when charging the battery. If any nonspecified items are used, fire, overheating, leakage, or damage to the connected PC may occur.

  • Do not get the charging cable wet and do not touch or hold it while it is wet or with wet hands. If this is not observed, problems with operation or electric shocks may occur.

  • Use an AC adapter with a USB port with a voltage of 5.0 V DC and with a
    current equal to or higher than 1.0 A DC. If the one with a current lower than 1.0 A is used, the AC adapter may heat up, potentially causing a fire, smoke, overheating, destruction, electric shock, or burns.

  • Do not heat the battery or expose it to flames. If this is not observed, combustion or bursting of the battery may occur.

  • Do not use or leave the battery in hot and humid places such as where the battery is exposed to direct sunlight, in a closed vehicle on a hot day, or near a heater. If this is not observed, leakages, overheating or bursting may cause fire, burns or another injury to occur.

  • Do not deform, modify, disassemble, or apply solder directly to the battery. If this is not observed, leakages, overheating or bursting may cause fire, burns or other injury to occur.

  • Do not touch the metal terminals with metal items such as hairpins. If this is not observed, short-circuits, overheating, burns or other injuries may occur

WARNING

  • Do not disassemble or modify the product. This may cause the product to not operate correctly, and you may suddenly fall and be seriously injured.
  • When connecting or disconnecting the USB cable or the charging cable, be sure to hold the cable by the plug. Failure to do so may cause a fire or electric shock.
  • If the following symptoms are observed, stop using the device and contact your place of purchase. A fire or electric shock may be caused.
    •  If heat, acrid-smell, or smoke is coming out from the power plug.
    •  There may be a bad connection inside the power plug.
  • If it thunders while charging with an AC adapter with a USB port, do not touch the device, bicycle, or the AC adapter. If lightning strikes, electric shocks may occur.
  • Do not use a USB hub when connecting the cable to a PC USB port. This may cause a charging error or fire due to overheating.
  • Be careful not to damage the charging cable. Do not damage, process, forcibly bend, twist or pull them, bring them near hot objects, place heavy objects on them or bundle them tightly together. If they are used while damaged, fire, electric shocks or short-circuits may occur.
  • If the battery does not become fully charged after 4 hours of charging, stop charging. If this is not observed, fire, bursting, ignition, or overheating may occur.
  • Do not place this product in fresh water or sea water, etc., and do not allow the terminals to get wet. If this is not observed, fire, bursting, ignition, or overheating may occur.
  • Do not throw or subject this product to strong shocks. If this is not observed, bursting, overheating or problems with operation may occur.
  • Do not use the battery if leakages, discoloration, deformation or any other abnormalities occur. If this is not observed, bursting, overheating or problems with operation may occur.
  • Clean the chain and QUICK-LINK with an appropriate chain cleaner regularly. Intervals between maintenance depend on the use and riding circumstances. Never use alkali-based or acid-based solvents such as rust cleaners. If those solvents are used the chain or QUICK-LINK might break and cause serious injury.
  • Check the chain for any damage (deformation or cracking), skipping, or other
    abnormalities such as unintended gear shifting. If any problems are found, consult your place of purchase or a distributor. The chain may break, and you may fall.

CAUTION

  • Store in a safe place out of the reach of small children to avoid letting them
    swallow by mistake.

  • Do not let grease adhere to the metal terminals. A conduction failure may result.
