Diamondback 7th Edition - Manual (Page 4)


A special note for parents:
As a parent or guardian, you are responsible for the
activities and safety of your minor child, and that includes
making sure that the bicycle is properly fitted to the child;
that it is in good repair and safe operating condition;
that you and your child have learned and understand
the safe operation of the bicycle; and that you and your
child have learned, understand and obey not only the
applicable local motor vehicle, bicycle and traffic laws,
but also the common sense rules of safe and responsible
bicycling. As a parent, you should read this manual, as
well as review its warnings and the bicycle’s functions
and operating procedures with your child, before letting
your child ride the bicycle.
!
WARNING: Make sure that your child always wears
an approved bicycle helmet when riding; but also make
sure that your child understands that a bicycle helmet is
for bicycling only, and must be removed when not riding.
A helmet must not be worn while playing, in play areas,
on playground equipment, while climbing trees, or at
any time while not riding a bicycle. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious injury or death.
