GENERAL WARNING
Like any sport, bicycling involves risk of injury and damage. By choosing to ride a
bicycle, you assume the responsibility for that risk, so you need to know — and to
practice — the rules of safe and responsible riding and of proper use and mainte-
nance. Proper use and maintenance of your bicycle reduces risk of injury.
This Manual contains many “Warnings” and “Cautions” concerning the conse-
quences of failure to maintain or inspect your bicycle and of failure to follow safe
cycling practices.
The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word WARNING indicates
a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in serious injury
or death.
The combination of the safety alert symbol and the word CAUTION indicates
a potentially hazardous situation which, if not avoided, may result in minor or mod-
erate injury, or is an alert against unsafe practices.
The word CAUTION used without the safety alert symbol indicates a situation
which, if not avoided, could result in serious damage to the bicycle or the voiding
of your warranty.
Many of the Warnings and Cautions say “you may lose control and fall. Because
any fall can result in serious injury or even death, we do not always repeat the
warning of possible injury or death.
Because it is impossible to anticipate every situation or condition which can occur
while riding, this Manual makes no representation about the safe use of the bicycle
under all conditions. There are risks associated with the use of any bicycle which
cannot be predicted or avoided, and which are the sole responsibility of the rider.
The described possible consequences will not be repeated in the SCOTT short
manual every time one of the symbols appears.
The present SCOTT short manual together with the enclosed SCOTT info CD
complies with the requirements of the EN ISO standards 4210-2 for city and
trekking, young adult, mountain and racing bicycles as well as the EN ISO stand-
ard 8098 for bicycles for young children.
It is essential to also observe the detailed SCOTT owner’s manuals and the manuals
of the component manufacturers on the enclosed SCOTT info CD.
