TO ENSURE SAFETY
• Use the designated Cable Grease (Y04180000) for BC-9000.
• When the inner cable is passed through the outer casing, be sure to wipe the inner cable
fixing section with a cloth before fixing the inner cable. Grease may adhere to the inner
cable fixing section and prevent sufficient holding force.
NOTICE
Be sure to also inform users of the following:
• In the case of carbon levers, wash them with a soft cloth using a neutral detergent.
Otherwise, the material may be damaged and lose strength.
• Avoid leaving the carbon levers in areas of high temperature. Also keep them well away
from fire.
• When combined with a ceramic rim, SHIMANO road brake shoes wear down more
quickly.
• If the brake shoes have worn down until the grooves are no longer visible, consult your
place of purchase or a distributor.
• Different brake shoes have their own characteristics. Ask the place of purchase or a
distributor for details when purchasing the brake shoes.
• Be sure to keep rotating the crank arm during gear shifting operations.
• Be careful not to get water into the E-TUBE ports and the satellite shifter connection
port.
• The components are designed to be fully waterproofed to withstand wet weather riding
conditions; however, do not deliberately place them into water.
• Do not clean the bicycle with a high-pressure washer. If water gets into any of the
components, operating problems or rusting may result.
• Contact the place of purchase for updates of the component software. The most up-to-
date information is available on the SHIMANO website.
• Be sure to attach dummy plugs to any unused E-TUBE ports and the satellite shifter
connection port. If water gets into any of the components, operating problems or rusting
may result.
• The electric wire has small waterproof connectors, so do not repeatedly connect and
disconnect it too often. Doing so may impair the waterproofing.
• Products are not guaranteed against natural wear and deterioration from normal use
and aging.
