FAILURE TO USE COMMON SENSE AND HEED THE ABOVE
WARNINGS INCREASES RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY. USE
WITH APPROPRIATE CAUTION AND SERIOUS ATTENTION TO
SAFE OPERATION.
WARNING:
Riding the FlashRider
™
360˚ Caster Trike can be a
hazardous activity. Certain conditions may cause the equipment to fail
without fault of the manufacturer. The FlashRider 360˚ Caster Trike can
and is intended to move, and it is therefore possible to lose control, fall off
and/or get into dangerous situations that no amount of care, instruction or
expertise can eliminate. If such things occur you can be seriously injured
or die, even when using safety equipment and other precautions. RIDE AT
YOUR OWN RISK AND USE COMMON SENSE.
This manual contains many warnings and cautions concerning the
consequences of failing to maintain, inspect or properly use your FlashRider
360˚ Caster Trike. Because any incident can result in serious injury or even
death, we do not repeat the warning of potential serious injury or death each
time such a possibility is mentioned.
APPROPRIATE RIDER USE AND PARENTAL SUPERVISION
This manual contains important safety information. It is your responsibility
to review this information and make sure that all riders understand all
warnings, cautions, instructions and safety topics, and assure that young
riders are able to safely and responsibly use this product. Razor recommends
that you periodically review and reinforce the information in this manual
with younger riders, and that you inspect and maintain your child’s
FlashRider 360° to ensure their safety.
WARNING:
SPARKS CAN INDUCE FIRE
To reduce the risk of
SERIOUS INJURY
or
FIRE
:
PARENTS and RIDERS:
Make sure riders understand that sparks can
start a fire. Keep sparks away from flammable or combustible substances.
Use only under close adult supervision.
BE RESPONSIBLE:
Safety is important. Parents must review the
following warnings and instructions with each rider:
• Never use your caster trike to try to start a fire. Your caster trike
emits localized sparks when the Spark Bar on a moving trike comes in
contact with hardened outdoor surfaces, like asphalt or concrete. Be
responsible.
• For outdoor use only on solid, clean, dry hardened surfaces. Keep
sparks away from substances that can catch fire, such as dry
vegetation, paper, chemicals or gasoline. Sparks can induce fire.
• Do not use in any area prone to wildfires or posted by fire authorities
as a Fire Hazard Zone.
• Do not ride at night.
• Keep sparks away from eyes, hair, exposed skin and clothing. Sparks
can burn.
• Pull up on the Spark Handle to operate sparking feature. NEVER
push down directly on the Spark Bar, spark cartridge or cartridge
cover itself.
• Spark Bar gets hot during use. Do not touch after use.
Observe all other spark safety warnings and instructions as provided
elsewhere in this manual.
