When you carry a power-assisted bicycle in a car, remove
the battery from the bicycle and place the bicycle on a
stable surface in the car.

Before connecting the battery, make sure that there is no
buildup of water or dirt in the connector where the
battery will be connected.

The use of a genuine SHIMANO battery is recommended.
