Responsibility of parents
Unforeseen situations may arise when your child uses the
balance bike. Please make your child aware of possible
dangers. Good bike-handling skills are necessary in order
to avoid falls or crashes which may injure your child or
other children playing nearby. Show your child how to
use the woom 1 PLUS correctly and how they can use
their feet to stop safely at any time.
Warnings
When using the woom 1 PLUS your child must wear
sturdy, closed shoes and suitable protective equipment
(children's helmet and gloves). Never let your child ride
unsupervised. Do not let your child ride near stairs,
slopes, steep terrain or bodies of water. Never let your
child continue to ride the woom 1 PLUS if the balance
bike develops a technical defect. Check the valve caps
are securely attached such that they cannot be removed
by your child. WARNING! Risk of swallowing and suffo-
cation! We use materials of the highest quality to make
our steering limiter, a device designed to prevent chil-
dren overturning the handlebars. However, there is still
a risk that under certain circumstances the rubber ring
may break. If this should happen, please replace the ring
without delay. The original spare part is available from
our online shop.
Correct use
The woom 1 PLUS does not meet the legal requirements
set out in the Highway Code for Great Britain and North-
ern Ireland. Therefore, it must not be used in road traffic.
We recommend the woom 1 PLUS for children 82-100cm
tall. The saddle height can be adjusted by opening the
seat clamp using a hex key and moving the seat post up
or down. Please ensure that your child's legs are slightly
bent at the knees and that both feet are touching the
ground. Please ensure that your child can easily reach the
handlebars. Check the tyre pressure regularly.
Brake
The woom 1 PLUS is designed for children aged 1.5 years
and older. They may not yet be able to understand the
braking system and correctly operate the hand brake. As
a parent it is important that you do not rely on your child
being able to stop whenever it wants. For this reason, it
is essential that there is always an adult present to super-
vise the child when riding.
The woom 1 PLUS balance bike meets the standards and
testing methods set out in European standard EN 71
(safety of toys) and fulfils the requirements set out in
Directive 2009/48/EC on the safety of toys. It therefore
bears the CE marking.
