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.
8. MAINTENANCE 8.1 General DANGER OF ACCIDENTS During all maintenance work, follow the appropriate safety measures. All maintenance operations must be carried out with the battery disconnected from the pedal-assisted bicycle and the battery charger and the bicycle resting in a stable manner, taking advantage of special support elements.
8.2.3 Brake functioning control The brakes must be adjusted in such a way as to ensure effective braking and at the same time the control levers must have an adequate stroke, in order to modulate the braking: in other words, the brakes must not be too slow or too pulled. Check that brake system discs and pads are not contaminated with oils or soaps.
8.4 Monthly maintenance and checks 8.4.1 Control of electrical circuits and components Check the condition and fixing of the battery cables: the sheaths of the electrical cables must be in good condition and the terminals must be tight, not corroded and covered with insulating grease. Check that all light bulbs and lights have been switched on correctly.
