Parking Brake; Regular Checks - Bellelli B-Travel Mode D'emploi

• check that the front cover of the trailer does not come
into contact with the wheels or other moving parts of
the trailer.

PARKING BRAKE

To engage the parking break, move the lever to the Stop
position (fig. 18).
To disengage, move the lever to the Go position
USE OF THE TRAILER
Warning: Always set the parking brake before letting
children on and off or loading and unloading items.
Have children sit inside the cabin.
Buckle their safety belts (fig. 19).
Adjust the belt loops so that they fit snugly around the
child's body (fig. 20).
Warning: Always fasten children's safety belts before
moving.
CONDUCT ON THE ROAD
Always obey the traffic laws of the country in which you
are using the trailer.
The bicycle's manoeuvrability may be affected when the
trailer is attached to it, particularly in terms of balance,
steering and braking.
Reduce your speed when riding down a slope. Braking
distance is increased when a trailer is attached.
Take curves with particular caution; do not make sharp
turns, especially when there are obstacles (curbs, posts)
that can hinder the movement of the trailer.
Maintain a speed appropriate to traffic and road
conditions. It is recommended to not exceed 25 km/h
(15mph) on straight paved roads and 10 km/h (15 mph)
on curved, wet, or uneven roads.
Tell children not to rock inside the cabin in order to
avoid sudden shifts of weight which may cause
problems with stability.
Avoid potholes, puddles and other obstacles.
Travel at reduced speeds; slow down when going
downhill and when approaching turns.
Avoid sharp movements.
Brake gradually.
Do not use the trailer on icy roads or in adverse weather
conditions.
Do not leave a child unattended in the trailer.
Do not leave the trailer sitting out in the sun; the
cabin's interior, its plastic parts and its metal parts may
overheat.
Make frequent stops during long trips to allow children
to move about freely.
Children, in the cabin, are more susceptible to extreme
temperatures than adults. During the winter or in cold
weather, make sure that children are sufficiently covered
and do not suffer from the cold when at rest. During the
summer or in hot weather, make sure that children are
sufficiently ventilated and hydrated.
How to detach the trailer from the bicycle
Warning: Do not detach the trailer while there is a child
in the cabin.
Remove the supplementary safety belt from the bike
frame (fig. 21).
Remove the safety pin (fig. 22).
Remove the connection bar from the coupling device
(fig. 23).
How to close the trailer
Push the metal pin in and turn the safety latch out
(fig. 24).
Repeat this procedure on the other side.
Close the structure again, applying moderate forward
pressure to the two safety latches simultaneously
(fig. 25).

REGULAR CHECKS

Check the trailer and bicycle regularly.
Frequent checks:
• Check the tyre pressure and condition of the tyres on
the trailer and the bicycle. They must be inflated and
in good condition;
• Check that the brakes on the bicycle are working
properly;
