Important Safety Information

WARNING

Do not disassemble or modify the product. This may cause the product

Never use alkali based or acid based solvents, such as rust cleaners. If
those solvents are used the chain might break and cause serious
injury.
Clean the chain with an appropriate chain cleaner regularly. Intervals
between maintenance depend on the use and riding circumstances.
Check the chain for any damage (deformation or cracking), skipping,
or other abnormalities such as unintended gear shifting. If any
problems are found, consult your place of purchase or a distributor.
The chain may break, and you may fall.

Notice

For SHADOW RD+, be sure to check that the plate unit cover and the
plate unit cover cap are installed before riding the bicycle.
If gear shifting operations cannot be carried out smoothly, clean the
