Embarking the children
Preparing the cabin
»
Apply the hand parking brake to secure the Speedkid in order to prevent it from rolling away.
»
Open the 2-in-1 cover completely.
»
Adjust the safety harnesses to the number of children, see Middle Sitting Position on page 22.
»
Open the safety harnesses required:
–
Release the harness catch by pressing the
pushbutton.
–
Pull the two tabs out of the belt buckle.
–
Loosen the small locks which fix the belt cushions
in place.
Placing the children
»
Put a suitable bicycle helmet on children or use the optional available head rests.
»
Let the children get in one after the other, or lift them into the cabin.
»
If necessary, adjust the optional head rests by securing them to the seats at a different
height with the Velcro strips.
Tip!
A balanced load distribution is particularly important in Trailer mode. If the two
children differ greatly in terms of their weight, you should therefore put the heavier
child in the right-hand seat. Interacting with the tow bar mounted on the left, this
favourably influences handling.
Fastening in a child
»
Help the child to put his/her arms through the two side parts of the 5-point safety harness.
»
Adjust the seat belt, the belt pads and, if necessary, the optional head rests to the size of the
child.
Danger!
Check that the seat belts and belt buckles are correctly seated before each
journey. Failure of the restraint function can lead to serious or even fatal injuries
in the event of an accident. Only ride when all children are either wearing a bicycle
helmet or using an optional head restraint and are properly buckled.
Tip!
If the child is too small for the 5-point safety belts, we recommend using
accessories such as a baby shell / hammock or a seat reducer as soon as your
child can sit upright.
Middle sitting position (Speedkid2)
To achieve optimum load distribution, it is important for the load’s centre of gravity to be
approximately in the middle of the cabin. In the as-delivered state, the 5-point safety harnesses
are pre-adjusted for carrying two children. If you only want to carry one child, you must adjust the
safety harnesses so that the child can sit in the middle.
»
Pull the straps out of the inner belt buckles.
»
Change round the pads and tongues:
–
Push the pad and the tongue of the inner left
harness onto the right harness.
–
Push the pad and the tongue of the inner right
harness onto the left harness.
»
Secure the belts again using the belt buckles:
–
Thread each end of the belt in the buckle as it is
shown in the picture.
–
Be sure to check both belt buckles sit firmly.
»
Put the harness catch, including the pad, onto the
centre harness on the front of the seat. Use the
harness catch of the left or right seat to do this.
»
Repeat this procedure in reverse order whenever you
require the safety harnesses for carrying two children.
»
Insert the tabs into the belt buckle until they click audibly.
»
Check that all parts of the 5-point safety harness fit properly and comfortably.
»
Close the small locks to fix the belt pads if the belt pads of the 5-point safety belts are too
loose (see the photo above). However, always make sure that there is enough distance
between the locks and the child's neck. For older children, additional fixation of the belt pads
is not recommended or not possible in the middle sitting position.
»
Close the cover and secure it appropriately.
Tip!
When adjusting the strap length, make sure that you only pull on the straps themselves
and not on the strap pads, as these are firmly attached to the seat.
