Important safety information

• When replacing the oil, be careful that no oil gets on the disc brake rotor, pads, on the rim when using rim brakes, etc.

If oil gets on any of these parts, there is a danger that brake performance may be reduced.

Take care of this problem according to the procedures in the brake instruction manual.

• Since there is a risk of explosion or fire, do not smoke, eat, or drink while using this oil. In addition, keep it away from ignition sources such as heat,

sparks, open flames, or high temperatures and prevent it from catching fire due to static electricity sparks or other sparks.

• Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area. Inhalation of oil mist or vapors may cause nausea. Be careful to provide ventilation and use a respirator

type mask.

If mist or vapor is inhaled, go immediately to an area with fresh air. Cover up with a blanket. Stay warm and stable and seek professional medical

advice.

Cautions regarding handling of SG-S700 OIL:

• Use appropriate eye protection when handling, and avoid contact with eyes. In the event of eye contact, flush with fresh water and seek medical

assistance immediately. Contact with eyes may result in irritation.

• Use gloves when handling. In the event of skin contact, wash well with soapy water. Contact with skin may cause a rash and discomfort.

• Do not drink. If it is drunk by mistake, do not induce vomiting; make the affected person drink 1 to 2 cups of water and seek medical assistance

immediately.

If the affected person loses consciousness, do not give the person anything by their mouth. If vomiting occurs naturally, tilt the body to prevent

inhalation.

• After use, be sure to wash hands thoroughly.

• Keep the container sealed to prevent foreign objects and moisture from getting inside, and store it in a cool, dark area away from direct sunlight.

• Keep out of reach of children.

• Dispose of used oil, old oil, or oil used for cleaning in accordance with the method stipulated by the law.

• To maintain the product in good working order, replace the oil after the first 1,000 km from the start of use of the product, and once every year

thereafter (after every 2,000 km if bicycle is ridden frequently).

• Do not use oil other than SG-S700 OIL. Problems such as an oil leakage and gear shifting malfunction may occur.

• Disposal of used oil: Follow local county and/or state codes for disposal. Use caution when preparing the oil for disposal.

• Read this manual carefully, and keep it in a safe place for later reference.

• For the latest product safety data sheets, check the website https://si.shimano.com.

When using a 1L can of oil, it may become impossible to suck out oil with a syringe when there is only a little oil left. First, transfer all oil to a

different container.
