Battery-powered lighting
The regulations on the use of battery-operated front
lamps
(a)
and rear lights are different in each country.
Familiarize yourself with the relevant country-specific
regulations and comply with the road traffic regula-
tions in your country
(b)
.
For more information see the chapter “Legal Require-
ments for Riding on Public Roads”.
G
An incomplete or inoperative lighting set
is not only against the law, it is also a
hazard to your life. Cyclists riding in the
dark without a light are liable to be overlooked
and at risk of getting involved in serious acci-
dents!
i
Read the enclosed operating instruc-
tions of the lighting and dynamo man-
ufacturers carefully which you can find
on this CENTURION CD-ROM and follow their
instructions. If you have further inquiries on your
lighting set, contact your CENTURION dealer.
Things worth knowing about
your CENTURION bike
Cycling helmets and glasses
Cycling helmets
(c)
are absolutely recommendable.
Your CENTURION dealer has a variety of styles and
sizes.
Verify that the helmet complies with the test standard
DIN EN 1078. Cycling helmets are only approved
for use during cycling. Observe the manufacturer’s
instructions.
G
Never ride without a helmet and glasses
(d)
! But remember that even the safest
helmet is useless unless it fits properly
and is correctly adjusted and fastened.
In addition to a cycling helmet and suitable clothing,
cycling glasses are absolutely essential when you
are riding your CENTURION bike. They do not only
protect your eyes from the sun and the wind, but also
keep out flies and other impurities that may impede
your vision when they fly into your eyes. Risk of an
accident!
Good cycling glasses must fit closely against your
face so that the wind does not get into your eyes
from the side. There are a great many different mod-
els, for example, without tinting and UV protection,
which can be worn at night or in twilight conditions,
or glasses with a high level of UV protection that you
should wear if the sun is stronger.
Your CENTURION dealer has a wide range of cycling
glasses available and will be pleased to advise you.
