Before riding your 345-E for the rst time, and periodically thereafter, please pay
close attention to the following:
• We strongly recommend the use of an approved cycling helmet, even if their use is
not mandatory in your country. Bike helmets save thousands of lives every year.
• Before riding, please take the time to familiarise yourself with the operation of the
bike and pedal assist system in a safe environment away from hazards.
• Ensure your battery is locked securely in place, do so by pushing the battery into the
holder until it clicks into place. Remove the key from the lock and pull the battery to
check it’s locked in place.
• Check the brakes by pulling both brake levers. You should feel an obvious pressure
point. The break levers should not touch the handlebar.
• Check brakes and tyres regularly (including their pressure) .
• Check that all wheel nuts and brake bolts are properly tightened.
Take extra care while riding in wet conditions including decreasing speed and
increasing braking distances. Feet or hands can slip in wet conditions and
lead to serious injury and/or death
