Pacific Cycles FROG - Manual (Page 16)

riese und müller GmbH Frog Manual
Damage through wear and tear, neglect (inadequate care and maintenance), crashes, overloading through excess weight, incorrect
assembly, or modifications to the bike (additional or changed components) is excluded. Competitive use, jumping or similar
overloading is also not covered by guarantee.
In the interest of long life and component reliability, the manufacturer’s assembly instructions (including torque settings for
bolts) and the correct service intervals must be precisely observed. The guarantee is void if assembly instructions or service
intervals are neglected. Carry out the checks indicated in this handbook (page 42), and replace any safety-critical parts when
necessary, for example handlebar, brakes etc.
Caution
: Your authorised dealer must make your bike rideable, so that safe functioning is guaranteed. The dealer must do a final
safety check and carry out a test ride.
