Shimano PD-ED500 User Manual page 6

Important safety information
If the warnings above are not followed, your shoes may not come out of the
pedals when you intend or they may come out unexpectedly or accidentally,
and severe injury may result.
Be sure to attach reflectors to the bicycle when traveling on roads. Reflectors are sold separately for
models that do not come with reflectors equipped as standard. For information on compatible
reflectors, contact the place of purchase or a distributor.
Do not continue riding the bicycle if the reflectors are dirty or damaged. Otherwise, it becomes more
difficult for oncoming vehicles to see you.
Do not use the pedals or cleats in any way not described in the user's manual. When the cleat and
pedal are facing forwards, the cleat can be engaged and released with the pedal.
Read the user's manual carefully for instructions on using the cleats. Failure to follow the instructions
may lead to serious injury.
Front
Read the manual and choose the correct product for your needs, based on a consideration of bicycle
type, riding terrain, and conditions.
Single release mode cleats (SM-SH51) and multiple release mode cleats (SM-SH56) are available for use
with these pedals. Cleats such as the single release mode cleats (SM-SH52) and multiple release mode
cleats (SM-SH55) cannot be used as they lack certain features, such as stable step-out performance and
sufficient holding force. If such cleats are used, the shoes may not come out of the pedals when you
intend or they may come out unexpectedly or accidentally, resulting in the bicycle collapsing and
serious injury.
