Read and observe this manual!

This manual contains information that is extremely im-

portant for your safety and the safety of other road users.

Therefore, it is essential that you read the entire manual

carefully and follow the instructions closely. If you should

experience dif culties understanding any of the information

or instructions, please contact your Croozer dealer. Keep

this manual handy at all times for future reference. If you

loan or sell your Croozer Cargo, pass on this manual to

the new user. It is also vitally important that you read and

observe the instructions provided in the manual of the

towing bicycle.

Who can ride the towing bicycle?

Be sure to acquaint yourself with the applicable laws in the

state or country where you plan to use the Croozer Cargo.

Requirements for the towing bicycle

The towing bicycle must be approved by its manufacturer

for pulling a trailer. This information can be found in the

owner’s manual of the bicycle. Furthermore, the towing

bicycle must be in perfect working order and have strong,

properly functioning brakes. Motorised vehicles may not

be used for pulling Bicycle Trailers. The only exception to

this rule is a pedelec. This special type of e-bicycle has

an electric motor that delivers assist only when the rider

pedals. In many countries, pedelecs legally qualify as

bicycles. However, e-bikes with a maximum speed of more

than 12 mph (20 km/h) may not be used for pulling the

trailer. The towing bicycle should be equipped with a sturdy

rear-mount kickstand to ensure safety when loading and

unloading the Trailer.

Be sure to familiarise yourself with the legal requirements

that apply to towing bicycles in the country or state where

you will be using the Croozer Cargo.

The towing bicycle must have a 26” or 28” (559 or 622mm)

rear wheel. This information can be found on the tyre

sidewalls. The numbers 42-622, for example, indicate that

the tyre has a width of 42 mm and a bead-seat diameter of

622 mm (28 inches).

Legal requirements for using a Bicycle

Trailer

Be sure to familiarise yourself with the legal requirements

that apply to pulling a Bicycle Trailer in the country or state

where you will be using the Croozer Cargo.

Before your  rst ride ...

It is vitally important that you familiarise yourself with the

Croozer Cargo before you use it for transporting cargo.

Prior to your  rst ride with the Trailer on public roads, Zwei

plus zwei GmbH recommends taking a practice ride in a

calm, traf c-free area. This is a great way to acquaint your-

self with the handling of the bicycle and the dimensions of

the Trailer.

Crushing hazard

When folding and unfolding the Croozer Cargo, keep

 ngers and hands clear of all possible pinch points (e.g.

movable frame parts and locking mechanisms).

Pulling the Croozer Cargo as a Bicycle

Trailer

Before each ride, check the following:

• Are the wheels securely attached?

• Are both vertical frame tubes snapped securely into the

clips?

• Are all security pins correctly inserted and locked?

Check that none of the security pins are hanging freely

from their straps.

• Check tyre pressure prior to each ride. The actual tyre

pressure should never be higher or lower than the

maximum and minimum in ation pressures marked on

the tyre sidewall. (See also page 24). Never use com-

pressed air, e.g. from a gas/petrol station, to  ll your

tyres. The rapid air ow and high pressure can overin-

 ate the tyres, causing the tube and/or tyre to burst.

Turning

Always reduce your speed to a walking pace when mak-

ing turns with the Bicycle Trailer. Keep in mind that riding

speed is often underestimated, especially on bikes with

electric assist. When turning at high speeds, the increased

centrifugal force can cause the trailer to skid or tip over

and result in accidents with serious injury or death.

Riding downhill

Always reduce your speed when riding downhill. Riding at

excessive speeds can cause the Trailer to skid, potentially

resulting in accidents with serious injury or death.

Riding over curbs or uneven surfaces

Riding over a curb or other obstacle with only one wheel

of the Bicycle Trailer could cause the trailer to tip over,

resulting in accidents with serious injury or death. Empty

trailers are especially susceptible to tipping. Therefore, if

you have to ride over a curb or similar obstruction, always

use extreme caution and ride at very low speeds. Never

use the Croozer Cargo on stairs or escalators.

Being visible to others

Never use your Croozer Cargo as a Bicycle Trailer in road

traf c without the safety  ag mounted. The safety  ag

makes it easier for other road users to see you.
