SAFETY

WARNING

Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in
death or serious injury.
NOTICE
Indicates a situation which can cause damage to the e-bike, personal property, and/
or the environment, or cause the e-bike or equipment to operate improperly.
In e-biking, as in cycling, the user's safety is paramount. It's
important to understand that e-bike riders tend to ride e-bikes
at greater speeds than traditional bicycles and e-bikes are
therefore more dangerous. Be sure to understand and follow
all local laws and regulations and to have maintenance/repairs
done by an authorized Juiced Bikes dealer. Never use/ride any
Juiced Bikes product in ways unintended by the manufacturer
and never exceed the weight limit of any product.
WARNING
!
Do not operate this product in traffic or any other
environment that may present danger until you are
!
confident with the product and all installed accessories
such as lights, passenger seat, etc. Failure to do so could
result in death or serious injury.
Use only parts/accessories approved by Juiced Bikes, and have
all installation performed by a mechanic authorized by Juiced
Bikes. Installation of unauthorized parts/accessories may void
the product's warranty. In addition, improper installation of any
parts/accessories as well as improper maintenance may void the
product's warranty.

WARNING
!
Never disassemble or modify any electronic component
!
of the bicycle. Doing so is extremely dangerous and could
result in death, serious injury or void the warranty.
WARNING
!
Never ride your e-bike under the influence of alcohol or
drugs.
Always wear a helmet, whether the law requires one or not! Wear
a properly fitting ANSI or Snell (CE for Europe) approved bicycle
safety helmet at all times when riding the e-bike.
Wear shoes that will grip the pedals and stay on your feet. Be
sure shoelaces cannot become caught in moving parts. Never
ride barefoot or wear sandals.

objects from entering your eyes. Wear tinted eye protection

can be caught in moving parts and become snagged by objects
alongside the road or trail.
