Tighten screws.
Must just be me but I consider it normal.
Doesn't Dahon recommend taking your new purchase to the local bike shop for service prior to riding?
Most bike brands do, especially if you bought it boxed. Home builders tend to cut corners and forget stuff. Most shops charge less than $30, so I'd consider it worthwhile for the peace of mind.
