Safe use, a few warnings:
•
Only transport your child of nine months or older with a weight of 9 kg or
more when he or she can sit upright independently for the duration of the
planned trip. Check regularly whether your growing child is not too big or too
heavy - a maximum of 22 kg - for the seat you are using.
•
Always make sure your child is wearing suitable clothes for the trip and is pro-
tected against the rain; after all, your child sits motionless and will get cold
quickly.
•
Never leave your child in the bike seat by himself/herself without you holding
the bicycle. Make sure your bike is equipped with a sturdy (double) kickstand.
•
If you have a bike saddle with saddle springs, then cover these springs to avoid
crushing and injuring your child’s hands and fingers.
•
Ensure the bike seat has not been exposed to the heat of the sun before pla-
cing your child in the seat.
•
Never make custom adjustments to the bike seat and always contact the store
where you bought the seat or Urban Iki’s customer service in case of any de-
fect. Do not use the bike seat in case of a defect part.
•
Always remove the bike seat when transporting your bike on a car bicycle rack.
Turbulence can damage or dislodge the seat, thus making it unsafe for use.
•
Always lock the harness of the bike seat, even when cycling without your child.
This prevents entanglement with the harness.
•
Only use the bike seat for transporting a child on your bike. Bags or other lug-
gage are best transported on the bike or attached to the opposite position of
your child, thus equally distributing the weight on your bike.
•
Do not lift your bicycle by the bike seat.
•
Urban Iki recommends using a helmet that fits your child well.
•
Your Urban Iki child bike seat is intended for day-to-day transport of your
child; it is not suitable for off-road and ATB tracks.
•
Cycling with a child in a child bike seat can influence your bicycle’s handling.
This applies especially to cornering, braking and departing.
•
You need to be 16 or older to be allowed to transport a child with an Urban
Iki bike seat. Corresponding legislation may differ depending on the country.
