The child seat is fitted on the luggage carrier of the bike with the carrier adapter. The bolts, accessible from the right side of the carrier adapter, must be tightened hard enough (min. 2 Nm) to fix the seat securely and prevent it from sliding. Make it a rule to check this before starting a trip with the bike.
Make sure the carrier adapter is well tightened and check this at regular in tervals.
The additional safety strap needs to be secured to the bicycle frame or seat post.
For optimal comfort and safety of the child, ensure that the seat does not slope forwards, so that the child does not tend to slide out of it. It is recommended to install the seat in a way that the back rest is sloped backwards slightly.
Install the seat as close to the saddle as possible.
Check all parts of the bike that they function correctly with the bicycle seat mounted.

USE

For safety reasons must this seat only be fitted to luggage carriers conforming to EN ISO 11243:2016.
Check whether there are any laws or regulations specific to the carrying of children in seats attached to cycles that apply in the country in which the seat is used.
The child seat is approved for children from about 9 months to 6 years or maximum 22 kg weight. Ensure that you re-check from time to time that the child’s weight and size do not exceed the maximum capacity of the seat.
Do not carry a child that is too young to sit safely in the seat as regarding minimum age of the child. Carry only child that are able to sit unaided for a longer period of time, at least as long as the intended bicycle journey.
Ensure that it is not possible for any part of the child’s body or clothing to come into contact with any moving part of the seat or cycle and to re-check as the child grows, due to the danger of entrapment of feet in the wheel and of the fingers in brake mechanisms and sprung saddles. The child seat gives good side and feet protection. However, you are recommended to buy and fit a closed wheel guard/chain guard. You can buy this at your bicycle dealer.
Check there are no sharp objects, such as split wires, on the bicycle that can harm the child.
Ensure that the restraint system is not loose or able to become trapped in any moving parts particularly the wheels, including when the cycle is ridden without a child in the seat.
Always use the safety belt/restraint system, ensuring the child is restrained in the seat.
A child sitting in a child seat should be dressed more warmly than the rider.
The child should be protected against rain with suitable waterproof garments.
Remember to put the child’s helmet on that complies to EN 1078:2012+Al:2012 before starting your bicycle trip.
When riding for the first time with the seat fitted,test ride the cycle in a safe/quiet environment before riding on the highway.
Cover any exposed rear saddle springs.
When transporting the bicycle by car (outside the car) remove the seat. Air turbulence might damage the seat or loosen its fastenings to the cycle, which could result in an accident.
The additional safety strap should be kept fastened to the bike whenever the seat is mounted on the bicycle.
For safety reasons, this seat should only be mounted on EN ISO 11243:2016 approved carrier racks. Ensure that the load capacity of the carrier rack is not exceeded.
When passing through rough terrain, over curbs, speed bumps, stairs etc., the child seat is exposed to extreme forces. Brake to a slow walking speed in such situations.

WARNINGS

Do not modify the seat.
The cycle could behave differently with a child in the seat. Particularly with regard to balance, steering and braking.
Never leave the cycle parked with a child in the seat unattended.
For any form of crack or if the surface starts to deconstruct, this indicates that the life of the seat has been reached and it should be replaced. A professional shall be contacted in case of doubt.
Always check the surface temperature of the seat before any use.
Always ensure that the head of your child is supported in a reclined position.
This child seat is not suitable for use during sporting activities.

MAINTENANCE
