2 SAFETY
2.1 General Warning
This manual contains many warnings and cautions, which if ignored, may increase the risk of
injury to you as a rider, may cause damage to the product or may invalidate the warranty. We
recommend that you read and understand this manual in its entirety, prior to your first ride.
Before riding your CARBON E-BIKE you must visit https://www.motoparilla.it/italian-e-
bike/service-manuals/ for up to date important safety related information. Riding any bicycle
involves the risk of product damage, serious injury or even death. Such risks are increased in
busy, urban environments with moving traffic. By choosing to ride a CARBON E-BIKE, you
assume the responsibility for these risks, and it is important that you know how to ride
responsibly and to exercise proper maintenance to minimise such risks and potential damage.
Do not try to ride beyond the limits of your ability or the limits of the CARBON E-BIKE.
We strongly recommend that you learn more about the inherent risks associated with riding
bicycles and suggest that you:
•Ask your local bike retailer for information or instruction on safe cycling.
•Ride within your means and ability.
•Attend a training session or safe cycling workshop run by many local bike clubs,
police departments, schools or government support groups.
•Always keep both hand on the handlebar and the eyes on the road.
•Always seat properly in the seat, with the legs one for each side and the feet on pedals
in the proper way
•The bicycle don’t stand alone and it is always possible to fell down. So drive and stop
always carefully and wear appropriate protection for reduce the effect of any injury
•Always wear homologated helmet
•Search “bicycle safety” online for reference information.
Skills of riders can vary; for example, it takes a highly skilled rider to travel at high speeds
and/or close to obstacles, cars or other cyclists. Do not ride in a manner that exceeds the
limits of your ability.

Moto Parilla –CARBON E-BIKE

2.2 Intended Use
CARBON E-BIKE is an electric bicycle developed and designed for commuting usage and/or
simple riding in fair weather and at speeds relevant to safe and appropriate travel in an
urban or suburban environment. Abusive riding styles or inappropriate use will invalidate
any warranty protection offered
WARNING! Understand your CARBON E-BIKE and its intended use. Using your CARBON E-
BIKE in the wrong manner or for the wrong purpose can be dangerous and may impact the
service life of the product.
The CARBON E-BIKE is a power-assisted bicycle intended for sensible use by physically
competent riders. If you have any concerns or doubts about your use or enjoyment of such
a product due to a medical condition, an illness or if you are recovering from treatment for
a condition or illness, you should consult your doctor regarding the suitability of the product
for you. If you are the user of an implanted medical device such as a pacemaker or

prior to the usage of MOTO PARILLA products.
2.3 Customizing
WARNING! Do not modify or customize your CARBON E-BIKE or CARBON E-BIKE
components in any way. Such modifications or refinishing will make void any applicable
warranty.
Modifications can cause damage which can increase the risk of failure and accident which
may result in serious injury or death. Refinishing can hide structural damage, such as fatigue
cracks or structural problems which may also result in an accident.
2.4 Maximum Design Limit
WARNING! This product has been designed with a maximum recommended weight limit of
100kg (220lbs) for the rider, clothing and all luggage, and is intended for use on paved roads.
For rider and luggage weight 100-115kg (220-250lbs): riding style, road condition, tire
pressures and luggage position may reduce product service life. Never exceed rider and
luggage weight at any time. Exceeding this limit will make void all warranties and may result
in the product being unsafe for operation.
2.5 Riding in Low Light Conditions
In low light conditions at night, dawn, dusk or during adverse weather conditions such as fog,
the visibility of cyclists is dramatically reduced

Moto Parilla –CARBON E-BIKE
WARNING! Never ride a bicycle in low light conditions without appropriate front and rear
lights fitted and “on” (illuminated) that meet or exceed the national standards of the country
in which it is being ridden.
We recommend that you consult the relevant national safety organization or a reputable cycle
dealer on what the minimum recommended lighting requirements are in your particular
country or region.
We also recommend to wear bright, reflective clothing such as reflective vests, leg and arm
bands
2.6 Stopping the CARBON E-BIKE
The CARBON E-BIKE is equipped with front and rear hydraulic disk brakes, operated by two
levers on the handlebars (shown). Before riding, it is important to familiarize yourself with
which brake lever operates the front brake and which operates the rear brake. Proper use
of your brakes will slow and bring your CARBON E-BIKE to a safe and controlled stop.
WARNING! To slow or stop the CARBON E-BIKE in normal operation, apply the brakes
appropriately. In the event that an emergency stop is required, apply the brakes
appropriately and in a safe and controlled manner until you have brought the CARBON E-BIKE
to a complete stop. Do not release the brakes until it is safe to do so.
Action on brake could block the wheel so the rider must be ready at all times. Reduce speed
dramatically if street condition could make the blocking of wheel easy, in order to help slow
or stop the CARBON E-BIKE in a controlled manner.
Aggressive use of the brakes may cause your CARBON E-BIKE to skid, potentially resulting in
loss of control. Anticipate your need to stop and slow using appropriate pressure on the
brake levers.
2.7 Riding in Wet, Cold or Icy Conditions
Under wet, cold or icy conditions, the stopping power of your brakes and tires (as well as the
brakes of other vehicles sharing the road) is dramatically reduced. This makes it harder to
control speed and easier to lose control. It also makes skidding during turning more likely.
Ride more slowly and cautiously when in wet weather. If it is cold, near or below the
temperature when water freezes, be careful of ice on the roads which could be dangerous.
WARNING! Wet or icy conditions impair traction, braking and visibility, both for the cyclist
and for other vehicles sharing the road. The risk of an accident is dramatically increased in
wet conditions
To make sure that you can slow down and stop safely in wet conditions, ride more slowly
and apply your brakes more gradually than you would under normal, dry conditions, taking
care to anticipate your need to stop and slow to avoid any aggressive use of the brakes.
We do not recommend riding in heavy rain or standing water, but we do understand that
this is not always avoidable. If your CARBON E-BIKE gets wet, clean and dry it within 10
minutes of heavy wet weather riding. See 7.2 Cleaning and Preventing Corrosion for more
information.

Moto Parilla –CARBON E-BIKE
2.8 Riding in windy conditions
You must consider that the dimension and the geometry of the CARBON E-BIKE is not
common. It is important to become accustomed to the different feeling of ride.
In windy conditions, especially lateral wind, due the great dimension of the bike, wind
action can be very effective and deviate the bike from its line or induct shacking vibration.
Please take note and be ready to prevent and take the necessary action to keep the bike in
its line and reduce the speed to under 15 km/h ( 9 mile/h).
Always keep both hands on handlebar in windy conditions.
WARNING! Windy conditions modify the behavior of the CARBON E-BIKE. The risk of an
accident due the lost of control of the E-bike is dramatically increased, so the speed must
be reduced to under 15 km/h (9 mile/h) for the safety of both the rider and the cyclist as
well as for the other vehicles sharing the road
2.9Riding in high traffic conditions with trucks
Please take note that big trucks move a great volume of air and when they overtake a
bicycle rider they produce an effect of strong lateral wind.
If possible please avoid riding in this road condition if not strictly necessary and in case,
apply the instructions of “riding in windy conditions.”
Apply the instruction of “riding in windy conditions” any time a truck is going to overtake.
2.10 Limited Life Span
WARNING! Bicycles have a limited life span for safe operation and are not indestructible
As with all mechanical components, bicycle components are subject to wear and high
stresses. Different materials and components may react to wear, stress or fatigue in
different ways. Excessive wear and high stress of your CARBON E-BIKE may be hazardous.
The expected life span of a CARBON E-BIKE or its components will vary with the material and
construction of the frame and components, the maintenance received over its life and the
type and amount of use. Any unusual or abusive riding style, such as off-road cycling,
competitive riding, stunt cycling, jumping or riding at excessive speed and braking hard, can
accelerate the wear and fatigue of components to the extent where premature and sudden
failure of a component may occur without warning and the risk of injury is increased.
Any form of crack, scratch or change of coloring in highly stressed areas indicate that the life
of the component has been reached and you should replace it before any further use is
made.
See Section 7.5 Checking for Cracking and Fatigue Failures for parts of the CARBON E-BIKE
that require visual inspection from time to time.
A blow to your CARBON E-BIKE, either major or minor, can cause stress and fatigue on the
CARBON E-BIKE and its components or compromise the integrity of the electronics, including

Moto Parilla –CARBON E-BIKE
the battery, electronic controller, motor drive system or wiring. In the event of an accident
and if safe to do so, put your battery into sleep mode. (see Section 5.3.4.) Check for visual
damage before continuing to ride the CARBON E-BIKE. If the CARBON E-BIKE has sustained
damage other than light cosmetic scratches such as dented, cracked, bent or misaligned
components, do not ride your CARBON E-BIKE until it has been inspected by an authorized
CARBON E-BIKE service center. If in doubt about the inspection of your CARBON E-BIKE,
contact [email protected]
2.11 First Ride
WARNING! First familiarize yourself with the modes of operation, controls and performance
of your CARBON E-BIKE before venturing onto busy streets.
We strongly recommend that you familiarize yourself with your new CARBON E-BIKE by
first riding it in a controlled environment, away from potential hazards such as moving
traffic and obstacles. It is important to become familiar with the modes of operation,
controls, brakes and the different performance features inherent to the electric motor.
WARNING! Your braking efficiency will increase during the first few rides as your brake disks
and pads “bed in”. To accelerate the increase in braking performance, perform a number of
controlled stops under hard braking. Please do that by following the instructions in 2.6
carefully.
2.12 Steering radius
Your CARBON E-BIKE is very big and long, which is what makes it cool and unique. The
steering radius is usually bigger than an ordinary bicycle. It is therefore necessary to become
accustomed to the steering radius of your CARBON E-BIKE before riding on main roads. It is
advisable to practise different turning conditions and bear in mind the personal turning
performance of your CARBON E-BIKE before reaching a turning where the reduction of speed
according to the turning radius, is requested
WARNING! If speed is not reduced or a wrong calculation of the turning is made, the rider
could lose the riding line, the position in the lane or even cross over to the opposite lane,
all of which could have dramatically dangerous consequences. Therefore, for the safety of
both the rider and cyclist and for other vehicles sharing the road, speed must always be
reduced before a turning and in relation to the radius requested
2.13 Moving and parking
When you park the bike take care that it is in stable condition and that is not in area where
can fall down to children or animals. Don’t park the bike in not flat street if possible; if not
possible take care that due to the gravity force the bike can move itself and injury people and
damage things and itself. So take all the prescription for avoid any spontaneous movement.
If not possible in anyway to park the bike on a flat street, lay the bike down slowly and
carefully to the ground.
Move the bike by hand walking at its side, keep the hand on the handlebar and be ready to
stop the bike using the brake lever: make sure the bike leans a little towards you so that the
center o gravity projection will fall in the triangle made by your feet and the 2 wheels. In that
case that bike will not risk to fall on the other side, where it can injury people and damage
things.

Moto Parilla –CARBON E-BIKE
WARNING! CARBON E-BIKE is a big bike. If fall down against people, especially children, it
can be very dangerous. Take care of all the consequence of a not stable parking. Moto Parilla
is disclaimed for any damage coming from a not stable parking.
