al. Do not tighten the screws excessively and check the tightness
periodically.
2) Check that the bicycle is suitable for adding supplementary
loads. Check the information supplied with the bicycle or ask for
information and advice from the bicycle manufacturer.
3) Adjust the seat and its components in order to give the child
the most comfort and safety. When the child is in the seat, the
backrest should be slightly tilted backwards, so as to prevent the
child from sliding forward.
4) Check to ensure that each part of your bicycle is working prop-
erly with the seat mounted.
5) Check the existence of any laws present in your State that govern
the use of bicycle seats to carry children.
6) Check initially and then periodically that the weight and size of
the child does not exceed the maximum allowed by the seat.
7 Check that the child or part of its clothes do not come into con-
tact with moving parts of the seat or bicycle. Avoid the child's
hands and feet coming into contact with the wheel or being
caught in the brakes.
8) Ensure that there are no sharp edges that could come into
contact with the child (for example, frayed or deteriorated wires
etc.).
9) Ensure that the safety belts are not loose and do not come into
contact with the moving parts of the bicycle, especially with the
wheels, even when the child is not being carried in the seat.
10) Always use the safety belts. Make sure your child is properly
secured with the seat belts.
11) The child in the seat must be clothed and protected from the
cold more than the person riding the bicycle. Protect the child
from rain.
12) It is advised to make the child wear an approved protective hel-
met.
13) Check that the seat is not too hot (e.g., overheated by the sun)
prior to placing the child in it.
14) Remove the seat when the bicycle is transported by car. Strong
wind could damage the seat or detach it from the bicycle, caus-
ing accidents.
15 Cover any saddle springs to avoid a child's fingers being trapped
and/or squashed by them.
16) Each time the seat is used, check it is fitted onto the fastening
block correctly: on pulling the support arm upwards, the fasten-
ing block must hold the seat down firmly.
17) The seat material (polypropylene) loses some of its mechanical

properties with ageing if exposed for longer periods to environ-
mental conditions (sun, rain, ice, etc.). In the case of normal use
and exposure to environmental conditions, the seat should be
replaced after 3 years.
Warnings

3) WARNING: Riding the bicycle may be different with a child in the
