SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
4
• Remove the non-safety-related stickers from the child bicycle seat before use.
• The rider must be at least 16 years of age.
• Check for any laws and regulations that might be in force in your country,
relating to the carrying of children in seats attached to cycles.
• Carry only children that can sit unaided for a longer period, at least as long as
the intended cycle journey.
• Do not carry a child less than 9 months of age in this child bicycle seat. To be
a passenger, the child must be able to sit up straight with the head held upright
while wearing a bicycle helmet. A doctor should be consulted if the child's growth
is questionable.
• Make sure that the weight and height of the child do not exceed the maximum
capacity of the seat, and check this at regular intervals. Check the weight of the
child before using the child seat. Under no circumstances should you use the child
bicycle seat to transport a child whose weight is above the permissible limit.
• Make sure to check from time to time that the weight and height of the child do
not exceed the maximum permissible load of the seat.
• Make sure that it is not possible for any part of the child's body or clothing to
come into contact with moving parts of the seat or bicycle and check this as the
child grows.
• You must cover any sharp or pointy objects on the bicycle (e.g frayed cables) that
may be reached by the child, in any situation.
• A wheel protector is mandatory to prevent the child from inserting its feet or
hands between the spokes. The use of protection underneath the saddle or the
use of a saddle with internal springs is mandatory. Make certain that the child is
not able to hinder the brakes, thus avoiding accidents. These adjustments should
be revised with child´s growth.
• Cover any exposed rear saddle springs.
• When the child bicycle seat is not in use, fasten the waist buckle of the security
harness to prevent the straps from dangling and entering in contact with some
turning part of the bicycle as wheels, brakes, etc. as these may be a hazard to
the cyclist.
• Secure the child into child bicycle seat ensuring that all the safety belts and
straps applied firmly but not so tight as to cause discomfort to the child.
• Check the security of fastners frequently.
• You must ensure that you always use the restraint system, and that the child is
secured in the seat.
• Dress the child in proper clothes according to weather conditions.
• Children in child seats need to be more warmly dressed than riders of cycles and
should be protected from rain.
• Remove the seat when transporting the bicycle by car (outside the car). Air
turbulence might damage the seat or loosen its fastenings or other suspended
elements, which could lead to an accident.
• Accompanying persons should carefully consider stability / balance when
placing the child on the bike in the seat.
• Make sure that children wear a suitable helmet that complies with EN
1078:2012+A1:2012 while riding in the seat. Not wearing a helmet exponentially
increases the risk of death, long-term disability, head trauma, or other injuries. As
bicycle seat manufacturers, we care about the safety of seat passengers, so we
strongly recommend that children and all passengers wear properly fitted and
fastened bicycle helmets.
• The seat and cushion can get hot if under the sun for a long time. Make sure that
they are not too hot before seating the child.
• This child seat is not suitable for use during sporting activities, or in extreme
conditions as per example: enduro, hard mountain biking, big road holes, jumps
and off-road ways.
• When riding for the first time with the seat fitted - to test ride the cycle in a safe/
quiet environment before riding on the highway.
