CHILD BIKE SEAT
ENG
4
CAUTION
•
WARNING!
Failure to comply with the manufacturer’s instructions can lead to serious injury or
death of the passenger/rider.
• WARNING: Do not attach additional luggage to the child carrier.
- Attaching additional luggage or accessories may exceed the load limit of the Bicycle Seat, and
may lessen the stability (see
page 15 for load limits).
- It is recommended to carry any additional luggage or accessories at the opposite end of the
bicycle from the Bicycle Seat (i.e. use a front luggage carrier when using a rear Bicycle Seat).
• WARNING: The cycle may behave differently with a child in the seat.
- The load of a Child Bicycle Seat may lessen the stability and alter the riding characteristics of the
bicycle, particularly regarding steering and braking.
- Presence of a Child Bicycle Seat on a bicycle may require alteration of the method used by the
rider to mount or dismount the bicycle. Care must be taken whenever the rider gets on or off the
bicycle.
- Before each ride, ensure the mounted Bicycle Seat does not interfere with braking, pedaling, or
steering of the bicycle.
• WARNING: Never leave the bicycle parked with a child in the Bicycle Seat
unattended.
- Never leave the child in a Bicycle Seat with the bicycle supported only by a kickstand.
• WARNING: Do not modify the Bicycle Seat.
• WARNING: Do not use the Bicycle Seat if any part is broken.
• WARNING: The Safety Strap must always be fastened to the bicycle frame before use (see page
10).
• The bicycle to which the Bicycle Seat is attached must be in good working order, of a type
appropriate for the additional load, and of proper size and adjustment for the rider.
• Check the bicycle user manual, or contact the bicycle manufacturer/supplier to obtain applicable
information, to ensure the bicycle is appropriate for use with a Child Bicycle Seat.
• Tighten rack adjustment knob as directed on page 8 and check frequently.
• Ensure that any exposed rear saddle springs are covered with a suitable spring guard.
• Ensure that there are no sharp objects within reach of the child, e.g. frayed cables.
• The red reflector that came attached to the Bicycle Seat, which complies with CPSC regulations,
must be visible on the rear of the Bicycle Seat whether the Bicycle Seat is on the bicycle or not.
• Ensure that you do not exceed the load capacity of the bicycle rack that is used to attach the
Bicycle Seat to bicycle.
- This Bicycle Seat should only be attached to bicycle racks which are compliant with ISO 11243
(see page 6 for compatibility information).
• Always remove the Bicycle Seat from the bicycle when the bicycle is being transported on/outside a
motor vehicle. This is necessary because the force of the high wind and air turbulence on the car-
rier may degrade or damage the Bicycle Seat (particularly the bicycle attachment mechanism) to
the point that it will not perform reliably, which could result in an accident or serious injury.
• The rider of the bicycle must be a minimum of 16 years old and have good bicycle riding and
handling skills.
