06Prohibited usage environments The pedal-assist bicycle must not be used: in areas subject to fire or explosion hazards; in environments with a corrosive and/or chemically active atmosphere; in poorly lit environments; on land with a slope greater than 10%; on uneven, unpaved terrain.

The pedal-assist bicycle has been designed and built to be ridden outdoors, on public roads and cycle paths, but always on asphalted surfaces. Any modification of the state of construction can compromise the safety and stability of the pedal-assist bicycle and can lead to an accident. Other types of use, or use beyond the range of the intended use, do not correspond to the use intended by the manufacturer and therefore the manufacturer can no longer be held liable for any resulting damage. Battery life, and therefore the estimated mileage in km, can vary considerably depending on the type of use and external influences; please consider the following particularly influential factors: user weight, pedalling frequency, assistance level selected on the display, average speed, tread thickness and wear, slope and road surface, weather conditions.

3.3 Usage environment

The pedal-assist bicycle can be used outdoors, in the absence of adverse weather conditions (rain, hail, snow, strong wind, etc.). Maximum allowed temperature: + 40 °C Minimum allowed temperature: + 0 °C Maximum allowed humidity: 80% The usage environment must have a flat, compact asphalted surface, free of roughness, potholes or depressions, and free of obstacles and oil stains. In addition, the place of use must be illuminated, either by the sun or by artificial lights, so as to ensure correct visibility of the route and the controls of the pedal-assist bicycle (300 to 500 lux recommended). ATTENTION 07Prohibited operations Performing prohibited operations invalidates the warranty. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for any damage to persons and things deriving from the execution of prohibited operations. It is strictly prohibited to: Ride your pedal-assist bicycle for purposes other than those for which it was built, i.e. for carry- ing passengers. Ride your pedal-assist bicycle in areas where there is a danger of explosions. Ride your pedal-assist bicycle in adverse weather conditions (pouring rain, hail, snow, strong wind, etc.). Carry a passenger. Ride your pedal-assist bicycle under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Ride your pedal-assist bicycle if your weight is greater than the permitted weight. Charge the battery in an environment that is too hot or insufficiently ventilated. Cover the battery while it is charging. Smoke or use open flames near the charging area. Transit through or stop on surfaces with a gradient greater than 10% or uneven surfaces (unpaved, with holes, depressions, obstacles, etc.). Perform any maintenance with the battery connected. Use non-original spare parts. Insert the limbs or fingers between the moving parts of the bicycle. It is absolutely prohibited to raise the seat post beyond the limit of 10 cm in order to avoid fractures to the frame.

3.4 Improper uses and contraindications

The actions described below, which obviously cannot cover the entire range of potential possi- bilities of "misuse" of the pedal-assist bicycle, are to be considered absolutely prohibited. ATTENTION DANGER

084. Lifting and transport

Crushing and impact During lifting, it is necessary to operate with extreme caution in order to avoid damage to people and things. This should be done by two people.

The weight of the pedal-assist bicycle is approximately 25 kg, so lifting by two adults is recom- mended. The manufacturer is not liable for breakages due to the lifting and/or transport of the pedal-as- sist bicycle after delivery.

To ensure a high level of safety during transport in vans, it is necessary to prevent the pedal-as- sist bicycle from moving around. This is achieved by resting it on the stand and tying it up with straps or anchor cables in good condition. In this regard, the attachment devices must be installed in such a way that they do not damage the frame and other parts of the bicycle.

5.1 Charging the battery

Before using the bicycle for the first time, it is necessary to charge the battery for at least 4-6 hours, until charging is complete, using the supplied battery charger. The bicycle is powered by a 36 V lithium-ion battery. The average charging time is around 4-6 hours. The batteries are of the lithium type. To extend the life of the battery as much as possible, a full charge every thirty days is recom- mended, even if the bicycle is not used. We recommend charging the battery with its special battery charger after each use of the pedal-assist bicycle. Charging with the battery inserted: Insert the charger plug into the socket on the frame. Connect the battery charger to the mains socket (230 V/50 Hz). Charging with the battery removed: Open the frame with the appropriate release device. Insert the key into the lock on the battery base, hold the battery base with one hand and turn the key counterclockwise, then pull out the battery to bring the battery to the workbench. Insert the charger plug into the socket on the battery; Connect the battery charger to the mains socket (230 V/50 Hz). DANGER 09Precautions during charging Always connect the plug to the battery and then the power plug to the mains. When recharging is complete, always disconnect the plug from the mains first and then the plug from the battery. Always fully charge the battery. Always use original power supplies. Do not leave the battery charging for more than 16 hours. Always recharge in a ventilated area. Do not recharge the battery in environments that are too hot. Do not recharge the battery near flammable liquids. Do not cover the battery in any way while it is charging. If the battery gives off a bad smell, immediately unplug it from the power supply and ventilate the room, do not touch the battery. Keep the battery in a cool, dry place when you are not using it. During charging, the red light in the charger is illuminated, when charging is com- plete, the red light goes out, and the green light comes on.

Turn on the rear light via the ON button; there are 5 lighting modes, press the ON button again to activate the next lighting mode. Press the ON button for more than 2 seconds to turn off the rear light. The rear light is powered by two AA batteries; it is recommended to respect the polarity during installation/replacement.

Check the efficiency and state of charge of the battery. Using it in a very cold environment quickly degrades the efficiency of the battery. Check the chain tension and lubrication. Check that the pedals are correctly tightened in their respective positions; the pedals are different for each side, the R or L symbol is specified on the pedal axle for the right and left side respective- ly). Also check that the cranks are correctly tightened to the bottom bracket. DANGER

Check the tyre inflation pressure, referring to the values on the tyre shoulder. Check the state of wear of the rubber: there must be no cuts, cracks, foreign bodies, abnormal swellings, exposed canvas and other damages.

Check the operation of the brakes with a low-speed braking test (max. 6 km/h) in an obsta- cle-free zone, first with the rear brake and then with the front brake. Check with negative results In the event that defects of any kind are found during the preliminary checks and even a single check has negative results, do not ride the pedal-assist bicycle. Activate all measures immediately to make a proper adjustment, and if necessary, contact the Support Service. ATTENTION

6.1 Assembly of the SCR-E model

1. Carefully remove the bike from the packaging, then

remove all protective material, being careful not to scratch the painted parts and pull the bike cables. The removal of the bike from its packaging must be an operation carried out by two adult persons in order to avoid injuries or crushing.

5. Identify the right pedal by the R mark on the pedal

axle, while the L mark identifies the left pedal. Tighten the left pedal counterclockwise and the right pedal clockwise in their respective positions to avoid serious injury when using the bike and damage to the bike. Make sure all bolts and pedals are tightened properly. DANGER DANGER

137. Maintenance instructions

Check with negative results

• If even a single check has a negative result, do not ride the pedal-assist bicycle.

• Immediately take all measures to perform a suitable repair and if necessary, contact the Support Service of your dealer. All maintenance operations must be performed with the system switched off, the battery disconnected and the bicycle resting on the stand. After each routine maintenance operation, a check on the perfect functioning of all controls is mandatory. This manual does not go into detail about disassembly and non-routine maintenance, as these operations must always be carried out exclusively by the Support Service staff of your author- ised Ducati Urban e-Mobility dealer. The Support Service is able to provide all the information you will need and answer all your requests regarding the perfectcare and maintenance of your pedal-assist bicycle.

Cleaning the pedal-assist bicycle is not only a matter of decorum but also makes it possible to immediately detect any defect in the bicycle. In order not to damage or impair the operation of the various components, especially the electrical parts, cleaning must be carried out while taking certain precautions. It is absolutely forbidden to direct pressurised water jets towards the electrical parts, the motor, the display and the battery, for which sponge washing is recommended. Before starting the pedal-assist bicycle, dry completely with a cloth or paper, being careful not to scratch the painted components. Avoid using compressed air, especially at close range and high pressure. Check that there is no residual moisture left on the electrical components.

7.2 Chain lubrication

It is important to lubricate the chain regularly, to avoid excessive wear and to prolong its life.

1. Clean the entire length of the chain links with a rag.

2. Spray all chain links with a special lubricant spray for transmission chains.

7.3 Checking the parts

The supporting frame of the pedal-assist bicycle and the welds must be free of visible defects such as: cracks, deformations, incisions, corrosion, etc. Make sure that all the bolts and pedals of the pedal-assist bicycle are properly tightened. Check the condition and attachment of the battery, the electrical cable sleeves must be in good condition, and the terminals must be well tightened and not corroded. Check the battery charge status using the indicator on the handlebar display. ATTENTION 14For proper use of the battery in your EPAC vehicle, we recommend that you always charge the battery after each use of the bicycle. Using the inflation valve on the rims, check the inflation pressure of the tyres using a compres- sor and a pressure gauge gun or a workshop pump. Check the condition of the tread, the rim and the attachment of the rims to the hubs. If you need to replace the tyres, contact the Support Service or a qualified tyre dealer. Do not modify the tensioning of the spokes: the adjustment must be carried out by specialised personnel and with suitable equipment. The brakes must be adjusted in such a way as to ensure effective braking, and at the same time the control levers must have a range sufficient for modulating braking: in other words, the brakes must be neither too loose nor too tight.
