(e.g. on a car roof, on a towed trailer or behind a motorhome).
Periodically check the bike: tyres, brakes, lights, etc.
Periodically wash the child seat with soap and water. Do not use aggressive substances.
MOUNTING THE CHILD SEAT
!!! Do not carry out mounting operations with the child in the seat.
Make sure you have all the components before proceeding with assembly (fig. A).
Mounting the support bracket
Take the back rack off the bike if it interferes with mounting the seat.
Mount the support bracket on the bicycle frame as illustrated in fig. B. Make sure that the arrows printed
on the front side of the block are pointing upwards.
!!! WARNING: mount the brace on the bicycle frame and not on the pipe under the bicycle saddle.
!!! WARNING: check that the brake and gear cables do not interfere with the bracket (1).
Choose the best screws (6) for your frame (see Table 1). (If the screws that come with the seat are too
short, longer ones [M6x80, for instance] can be found in a hardware store).
Slip the screws (6) into their holes.
Tighten the nuts slightly and evenly (7) (fig. C).
The support bracket must be free to slide along the tube: it will be tightened once the seat is in the
correct position (see fixing the child seat to the bike).
Fixing the support fork to the child seat
Turn the seat over.
Take the base (8), which already has the iron fork (9) inserted and with your hands line it up to match
the guides on the saddle-mount (10) (fig. D).
Push down so that the first notch on the rack in the saddle-mount (10) slots into the notches on the
endless screws on the base (8).
Turn the handle clockwise (fig. E).
Fixing the child seat to the bike
Hold down the yellow button on the bracket (2). Insert the support fork (9) into the upper part of the
bracket (1) (fig. F).
!!! WARNING: once inserted, make sure that the yellow button pops out (2). If it doesn't the fork
(9) is not inserted correctly: repeat the operation.
Check that the child seat does not interfere with pedals, brakes, gears and other moving parts on the bike.
Leave enough room for the child's legs.
Line the child seat up with the bike's axis.
Fully tighten the screws (6) on the bracket after having found the best position for the seat.
!!! WARNING: periodically check that the screws are tight. They may loosen with use.
Taking the child seat off the bike
Hold down the yellow button (2) on the bracket and pull up the support fork (9) up and off (fig. F).
Installing the foot rests
Take the left foot rest (11) (marked SX on the back).
Push it into the vertical slot on the left leg.
Push up as far as possible (fig. G).
Take the blocking lever (13) for the left foot rest (marked SX on the back).
Push the blocking lever into the hole behind the rest. Insert from the outside and push right in (fig. H).
Close the blocking lever by pushing downwards until you hear a click (fig. I).
