CAUTION
• Always check whether there are any laws specific to the carrying of children in Bicycle Seats
attached to bicycles that apply in the country in which the Bicycle Seat is used.
•
Do not carry a child who is too young to sit comfortably, safely, and independently in the Bicycle
Seat. Carry only children that are able to sit unaided for a longer period of time, at least as long as
the intended cycle journey (A pediatrician should be consulted before any child younger than one
year is carried).
• Do not attempt to carry more than one child in the Bicycle Seat.
• Ensure initially, and check from time to time, that the child’s weight does not exceed the load limit
of the Bicycle Seat (see page 15 for load limits).
• Ensure that it is not possible for any part of the child’s body, clothing, shoelaces, or toys to come
into contact with any moving part of the Bicycle Seat or bicycle and re-check as the child grows.
Particular dangers include entrapment of feet in the wheel and of fingers in brake mechanisms
and sprung saddles.
• Always attach the 5-point harness snugly around the child, ensuring they are restrained in the
Bicycle Seat.
• Ensure that the restraint system is not loose or able to become trapped in any moving parts,
particularly the wheels. When no child is being carried, fasten the retention system buckles so that
the straps do not hang loosely.
• Ensure the rider and child are wearing suitable bicycle helmets that meet applicable safety
standards.
• Children in the Bicycle Seat need to be more warmly clothed than riders of bicycles and should be
protected from rain.
• Check any excessive temperature (e.g. due to direct exposure to sun) of the Bicycle Seat before
placing the child in it.
• Never ride in inclement or hazardous conditions.
• Never ride the bicycle at night without adequate lighting.
• Do not remove the Rack Mounting System from the Bicycle Seat.
• It is not recommended to use the Bicycle Seat when riding your bicycle on off-road surfaces.
• Ensure that the free end of the Safety Strap cannot contact the wheel of the bicycle. If needed,
excess webbing material can be wrapped around the Seat Tube multiple times before securing the
buckle.
• Recommended maximum speed limits:
- 15 mph (24 km/h) on smooth, straight roads
- 5 mph (8 km/h) when turning or on uneven roads
