THIS BRIEF USER MANUAL CONTAINS IMPORTANT SAFETY
INFORMATION. PLEASE READ CAREFULLY AND STORE IN A SAFE PLACE.
This user manual is specific to your Globe (e-bike) charger. It contains important safety, performance, and technical information, which you should read before your first use and keep for reference.
You should also read the entire user manual specific to your Globe bicycle, including instructions and information regarding the battery and the charging thereof, and the Globe Bicycle Owner’s Manual (“Owner’s Manual”), because they have additional important general information and instructions which you should follow. If you do not have a copy of these documents, you can download them at no cost at www.globebikes.com, or obtain them from the nearest Authorized Globe Retailer or Globe Rider Care.
When reading this manual, you will note various important symbols and warnings, which are explained below:
WARNING! The combination of this symbol and word indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided, could result in serious injury or death. Many of the Warnings say “you may lose control and fall.” Because any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not always repeat the warning of possible injury or death.
CAUTION : The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word CAUTION indicates a potentially hazardous situation, that, if not avoided, may result in minor or
moderate injury, or is an alert against unsafe practices The word CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a situation that, if not avoided, could result in serious damage to the bicycle or the voiding of your warranty.
This symbol alerts the reader to information that is particularly important.
