total maximum load of the bicycle. Check the information from the bicycle
manufacturer.
* When installing the seat, follow the instructions for tightening the bolts
(torque) that are included in the installation instructions (Figures 5M and
7M).
* After installing the seat, check that it does not tilt forward, to prevent the
child from slipping out of it. Make sure that the backrest leans somewhat
backwards.

anchored with the safety belt to the frame of the bicycle (not to the
carrier!).
* After installing the seat, take a test ride with your child. Check that all parts
of the bike work as normal after the seat has been installed. Check that the
bike rides well, that your child is correctly seated, that all components have
been securely installed and that the footrests are at the correct height.

ground when getting on and off your bike.

baggage, use a carrier attached to the handlebars.
* Never change anything to the seat or the supplied attachment, otherwise

child, in particular the balance, the steering and the braking.
* Never leave your child unattended in the seat if you park your bike
somewhere.
* Do not use the seat if there are visible damage or defects present.
