Merida BIG.NINE E-LITE 900 DX Owner's Manual page 11

Never ride under the influence of drugs, medication, al-
cohol or when you are tired. Do not ride with a second
person on your MERIDA bike (except on a tandem) and
never ride without having both hands on the handlebars.
Observe the legal regulations concerning off-road cy-
(e+f)
cling and cycling on public roads with MERIDA
bikes and MERIDA pedelecs. These regulations may
differ in each country. Respect nature when riding
through the forest and in the open countryside. Only use
your pedelec on signposted, well maintained trails and
hard-surface roads.
Always bear in mind that you travel rapidly and quietly
when you are riding a MERIDA pedelec. Do not startle
pedestrians or other cyclists. Always make others aware
of your presence well ahead of time and by ringing your
bell or make use of the brakes so as to avoid accidents.
Familiarize yourself with your MERIDA pedelec. For
more information in this regard, read the chapters "Rid-
ing a MERIDA pedelec – Special features" and "Riding a
MERIDA speed pedelec – Special features".

First we would like to familiarize you with the various
components used on your MERIDA mountain bike and
on your MERIDA pedelec. Observe the component de-
scription on the front pages of the translation of these
original MERIDA operating instructions (g+h). Here you
will find two MERIDA mountain bikes and on MERIDA
pedelec showing all the essential components so that
you can easily locate the components as they are re-
e
ferred to in the text.
For your own safety, never do any work or
G
adjusting when servicing your bike unless
you feel absolutely sure about it. If you are
in doubt or if you have any questions, contact your
MERIDA dealer.
Please note: Do not hitch yourself and your
f
G
bike to a car. Do not ride freehand. Only take
your feet off the pedals, if required by the
condition of the road.
