Protect your child sufficiently from cold and rain.
■ We recommend that adult and child wear suitable helmets.
■ Adjust the headrest so that its upper edge matches the child's ear level.
■ If in doubt or if you have any further questions do not hesitate to contact your specialized dealer.
Attention: Do not attach additional luggage to the child's seat. If necessary, use a carrier for the front axle in
order to obtain a balanced load. Please note that the carrying capacity of bicycle and child's seat are not ex-
ceeded.
Attention: The seat must not be modified. The child’s bicycle seat meets all required safety regulations. Repair
works done by non-experts and alterations to the construction (dismounting original parts, attachment of parts with-
out approval etc.) may cause harm to the user.
Attention: Please note that the riding behaviour of the bicycle may change with a child in the seat, especially
regarding balance, steering and braking. Ask the child to sit quietly. Sudden weight transfers by the child may
considerably affect your safety during the ride.
Attention: Never park the bicycle with the child still in its seat.
Attention: Do not use the seat if one of its components is defective. Damaged components may jeopardize your
or the child’s safety. Before going on a ride you should check all components for potential damage and loose
connections (screws, connections, safety belts etc.). Damaged or worn components must be replaced immedia-
tely. Only use original KETTLER spare parts.
Attention: In case of extreme weather conditions please check if the seat can be used by the child, as for ex-
ample the seat may become very hot when there is strong solar radiation, or if the temperature is far below fre-
ezing point the skin may stick to the seat or its components.
Warning: When using KETTLER child seats we recommend using a standard seat post (not a spring loaded seat
post) in order to rule out the danger of pinching in the suspension area between the saddle and the saddle
connection.
Assembly
■ The child’s seat must be positioned such that it is not in contact with the luggage carrier. The distance between
luggage carrier and tube shackle must be min. 25 mm.
■ Fix the tube shackle parallel to the ground. This results in a seat which is slightly inclined towards the rear such
that the child may not slide out of the seat. The seat back is slighty inclined to the rear.
■ The load centre of gravity of the seat (indicated by the red spot) should be as far forward as possible and may
be a maximum of 10cm behind the wheel hub (will be defined in more detail).
■ In case of saddles with uncovered springs the latter have to be covered as a protection against bruises (e. g. art.
nr. 08947-690).
■ Further to that the rear wheel is provided with an additional cover on the spokes or a protective device to pre-
vent dresses from getting mingled with the spokes.
■ Tighten all screws with a torque of approx. 10 Nm. Check the tight fit of all screwed connections after assembly.
■ Please check whether all parts of the bike operate correctly with the set fitted in place (e.g. steering and brakes).
Service and maintenance
■ Always use environmentally friendly substances, never aggressive or caustic ones, for cleaning and servicing the
child’s bicycle seat.
■ If necessary you may also clean the safety belts. In this case it is especially important not to use aggressive sub-
stances! Usually weak washing-up water or a mild detergent will be sufficient.
■ If seat or clothes are damp the colour of the seat may possibly mark pale coloured clothes due to friction.
Accessories
■ If you want to attach the seat to another bicycle, you can order a second carrier for the child’s seat. (item no.
8947-933).
