The most important points for you to do
1. Even if you have ridden a bicycle for years, it is important for every person to read the
“Bike Owner’s manual” and the specific “RIDE+ Owner’s manual” carefully before you
ride on the new RIDE+ bicycle.
• Both manuals contains detailed information and useful suggestions about your new bicycle.
• Make sure that you understand the proper use, maintenance, and disposal of the components of
the electrical system of your new RIDE+ bicycle.
2. Think about safety. Your safety and that of other road users is very important.
• Do not ride the electric bike without the battery pack. The battery pack must be on the bike while
riding, else the bike has no lights when needed.
• Do not misuse the electric bike by riding it without a saddle. Some bikes have a quick release on
the seat post. If the saddle gets stolen, it may lead to hazardous situations when still riding on the
electric bike without a saddle.
• Check your bike for normal operation, loose parts and defects before riding. If you nd any
problem, visit your bike dealer for repairs before riding.
• Be aware that other road users do not expect that an electric bike can ride faster than a normal
bike. Riding faster also increases the risk of accidents.
• Do not ride abusively. Only ride in the Use Conditions specied for your bike. Please refer to
Trek’s Bicycle Owner’s manual for more detailed information.
• Do not over load the rear rack. The maximum allowable weight for the rear rack on RIDE+ bikes
is 20 kg for bikes with a rear rack battery pack and 25 kg for bikes with a down tube battery.
3. The electric system of your new bicycle needs special attention.
• Do not clean your electric bicycle with a high pressure washer. Any electric system is sensitive
for moisture. High pressure water might ingress in connectors or other parts of the electric system.
• Protect the battery docking connector. With removed battery pack, apply the protective cover to
prevent corrosion and damage to the connector.
• Handle your battery pack with care. Do not drop or impact the battery pack. Mishandling of the
battery pack could lead to severe damage or over-heating. In an extremely rare case, a battery
pack that has been severely impacted or otherwise mishandled could potentially catch re.
If you suspect damage to your battery pack, visit your dealer immediately for inspection.
4. Maintain the battery pack as instructed in the RIDE+ Owner’s manual.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in damage to your battery pack and may require battery
pack replacement:
• Charge the battery pack at least once every six months or when the battery pack shows a low
charge on the controller, a low-level red LED indicator or beeps every 30 minutes.
• Only charge the battery pack with the included BionX charger.
• When the battery pack is not in use, store it with a 100% charge in a dry, cool place, between
5°C and 25°C, preferably 5-10°C. Do not store it in places where temperatures get higher than
+25°C or lower than 5°C. Avoid extreme temperature changes.
