Rear seat for carrier fitment

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The seat is suitable for children of approximately nine months to six years of age, who weigh at the
maximum 22 kg. Only use the seat once your child is able to sit without assistance for the entire bicycle
ride. Read these installation instructions carefully before installing the seat. Please address any questions
you have to your supplier.
Carrier fitment
The seat is available for attachment to the carrier.
You can choose the carrier attachment if the carrier meets the requirements laid down in the ISO 11243
standard, with a minimum load capacity of 25 kg.
Two-year guarantee
We give a two-year guarantee on manufacturing and/or material defects. The guarantee starts on the date
of purchase, please keep your purchase receipt.
Carrier attachment
Attach the seat to the carrier by adjusting the clamping mechanism to the width of the carrier.
To fix the clamp, turn the adjuster clockwise. Ensure that the hooks are correctly positioned around the sides
of the carrier. If necessary, use the inserts for proper clamping of the seat to the carrier.
To increase the width, turn the adjuster anti-clockwise. Unlock the adjuster by pulling the ring at the rear of
the seat.
Check whether the seat is correctly mounted
Check that the centre of gravity of the seat is no more than 10 cm behind the rear axle of the bicycle.
Place your child in the seat and check that there is sufficient distance between the saddle and the front
of the seat to allow your child to sit comfortably. To change the position of the seat, loosen the clamping
mechanism and move the seat forward or backward along the carrier. Then tighten the clamping
mechanism as tightly as possible.
Additional safety
The carrier attachment must be additionally secured by fitting the securing strap around the frame. Open
the buckle of the strap by pressing the three-point fastener (on the side and on the top). Fix the strap
around the frame of the bicycle and close the buckle.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Adjusting the footrests
The footrests are easy to adjust without the use of tools. Adjust the footrest by rotating the clip upwards
through 90 degrees then sliding it up or down into the preformed positions. When the footrest is at the
correct height, push the clip down to lock it.
Using the safety belt
To undo the safety belt: press the three black points simultaneously and slide the belt clasp upward. You
can separate the two shoulder straps by sliding the black parts of the clasp apart.
Do up the safety belt by first sliding the two black parts together and then sliding them into the clasp body.
Tighten the belt until it is comfortably tight when your child is sitting straight in the seat. You can loosen the
belt by tilting the clips of the belt upwards.
Accessory: Lock
To protect the seat being stolen, you can lock it to the carrier using a Qibbel lock that is sold separately as
an accessory.
WARNING: INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE USE
* Check whether the use of the Qibbel seat is legally permitted in the country where you want to use it.
* The seat is intended for children of approximately nine months to six years of age, who weigh at the
maximum 22 kg.
* Regularly check that the weight of your child does not exceed the maximum allowable weight.
* The total weight of the cyclist, the child and the seat must not exceed the total maximum load of the
bicycle. Check the information from the bicycle manufacturer.
* 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.
* If the seat is attached to the carrier, ensure that the front of it is always 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.
* Always use the safety belt and the foot straps.
* When riding, check that no part of your child's body or clothing gets near to rotating or moving parts of
the bike, for instance a foot in the spokes or a finger near the brake mechanism. Regularly recheck this as
the child gets older.
* If you use a sprung saddle, ensure that your child's fingers cannot be pinched between the spring coils
by installing guards around the springs. These guards are available from quality bicycle shops.
* Make sure that the child cannot come in contact with sharp objects, like a frayed cable.
* Always close the five-point safety belt, also if there is no child in the seat. If there is no child in the seat,
closing the belt avoids loose parts of it ending up in moving parts when cycling.
* Ensure that your child is dressed sufficiently warmly and is protected from rain. During a bicycle ride, your
child sits still and is therefore more susceptible to the cold.
* Preferably let your child wear a correctly fitting safety helmet to increase his/her safety.
* If the seat is left in the sun a long time, it can become very hot. Therefore, check this before putting your
child in the seat.
* Remove the seat when transporting your bike on a car bike carrier. Due to air turbulence, the seat or its
attachment can become detached and possibly cause an accident.
WARNING
* Do not attach additional baggage to the child's seat. If you want to carry baggage, use a carrier
attached to the handlebars.
* Never change anything to the seat or the supplied attachment, otherwise you will influence safety when
the seat is used and the guarantee will lapse.
* Take into account that the bike handles differently when you transport a 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.
MAINTENANCE
* Regularly clean the seat using a soap solution.
* Regularly check whether all of the fastenings, etc. are still tight.
* After an accident, the seat must always be replaced, also if there is no visible damage. Contact your
supplier for more information.
* If a part of the seat is defect or damaged, contact your supplier for advice or repair.
