WARNING
- Do not disassemble or modify the product. It may cause the product to not operate correctly, and you may fall unexpectedly and be seriously injured.
- Before attempting to ride with these and the cleats (on the shoes), be sure you understand the operation of the engagement/release mechanism for the pedals and cleats (on the shoes). SPD pedals are designed to release only when needed. They are not designed to release automatically in the event of a fall from your bicycle.
- Use only SPD shoes together with this product. Other types of shoes may not release from the pedals, or may release unexpectedly.
- Use only SHIMANO cleats and securely tighten the mounting bolts to the shoes. If the bolts are not securely tightened, your foot may come off the pedals, which could cause you to fall.
- Before you attempt to ride with these pedals and cleats, apply the brakes, then place one foot on the ground and practice engaging and releasing each cleat from the pedal until you can do so instinctively and with minimal effort.
- Practice riding on a level surface first until you become adept at engaging and releasing the cleats from the pedals.
- Before riding, adjust the cleat retention force on the pedals to your preference. If the cleat retention force on the pedals is weak, the cleats may disengage accidentally, you may lose your balance, and you may fall off the bicycle. If the cleat retention force on the pedals is too strong, the cleats may not release easily.
- When riding at low speeds or where there is a possibility that you may need to stop (for example, when making a U-turn, at an intersection, when riding uphill or when cornering sharply), release the cleats from the pedals beforehand so that you can quickly put your feet onto the ground at any time.
- When riding in adverse conditions, use a lighter cleat retention force to attach the pedal cleats.
- Keep cleats and bindings clear of dirt and debris to ensure proper engagement and release.
- Be sure to periodically check the cleats for wear. When the cleats are worn, replace the cleats and adjust the cleat retention force before riding and after replacing the pedal cleats. If the above warnings are not followed, the shoes may not disengage from the pedals when you want them to, or they may disengage unexpectedly or accidentally, and serious injury may result.
-If the reflectors are dirty or damaged, it will be difficult for oncoming vehicles to spot you. Replace the reflectors with new ones.
