SEAT INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Seat installation instructions | Figure 3, 2a and 2b
Attach the seat to the bike rack by adjusting the clamping mechanism to the width of the rack. The clamp
features a safety clasp. The safety fastening consists of a grey button and a red ring. The clamp can only be
adjusted if 2 actions are performed simultaneously. The fi rst action involves pressing the button and pulling
the red ring. This means the grey button and red ring will be squeezed together. Only then can the clamp
be turned. Turn clockwise to tighten the clamp. Turn counter clockwise to unscrew the clamp.
Make sure that the hooks are correctly positioned around the sides of the bike rack. If necessary, use the
inserts to effectively clamp the seat to the rack. Remove the anti-slip strips before placing the inserts. Place
the inserts and then replace the anti-slip strips into the clamp. Make sure the hooks are securely fi tted to
the sides of the rack.
Anti-slip strips must be used both with and without the inserts. You must click them into the rack clamp or
the inserts. It is important not to forget them, because they will improve the seat's grip on the bike and also
protect the bike rack against damage.
Check whether the seat is correctly installed | Figure 4
Make sure that the seat's centre of gravity is no more than 10 cm behind the rear axle of the bicycle.
Place your child in the seat and make sure that there is suffi cient distance between the saddle and
the front of the seat so your child can sit comfortably. To change the position of the seat, loosen the
clamping mechanism and move the seat forward or backward along the rack. Then tighten the clamping
mechanism as tight as possible.
Seat belt | Figure 5
First remove the 2 cross-slot screws and round discs on the back of the seat using a PH2 cross-slot
screwdriver. Pull the screws through the corresponding holes in the belt and gently tighten the round discs
(torque 1.0 Nm). The seat belt consists of a three-point fastening system, which can be undone by pressing
the 3 points on the fastening system at the same time.
Foot supports | Figure 6 and 7
Suitable for round and oval tubes Ø
12-27 mm.
Preparation: Unscrew the 2 bolts. Pull the
metal bracket and the plastic block out
of the foot support. Remove the metal
bracket from the plastic block: bend open the bracket and remove the block.
Installation: Clamp the metal bracket around the frame tube. Place the block (with the curved side facing
the tube) between the metal bracket, with the block as close as possible to the tube. The pins on the block
must fi t into the holes in the metal bracket. Then slide the foot support over the plastic block. If the foot
support does not fi t over the block, the curved side of the block has not been mounted against the tube.
Then loosely tighten the bolts with one turn. Slide the supplied piece of foil between the steel bracket and
the tube. Make sure the grain structure touches the bracket, the smooth side touches the frame. This will
prevent the foot support from rotating and will also prevent damage to the lacquer. Tighten the bolts fi rmly
(torque 4.0 Nm) with Allen key 5. Repeat this for the other foot support.
Tip: Buy additional foot supports if you want to use the seat on several bicycles.
Accessory installation instructions | Figure 8
You can protect the seat against theft by using a lock that is sold as an accessory. Install the lock by
pulling the lock cable through a hole in the seat attachment, and secure it to the rack.
WARNING: INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE USE
* Check whether use of the Qibbel seat is legally permitted in the country in which you wish to use the
seat.
* The seat is designed for children aged around 6 to 10 years, or a maximum of 35 kg. You can safely take
younger children with you in a Qibbel front seat or rear seat.
* The total weight of the cyclist, the child and the seat must not exceed the maximum permitted load for
the bicycle. Check the information provided by the bicycle's manufacturer.
* Mount footrests at the correct height for your child. Inform your child that the feet are close to the
spinning wheel and can get between the spokes if used incorrectly.
* After installing the seat and footrests, take a test ride with your child. Check to see whether all parts of the
bicycle are working normally once the seat has been installed. Look to see whether it pedals well, you
child is sitting properly, all parts have been fi tted securely and the height of the foot supports is correct.
* Set your saddle at such a height that it is easy for you to place your feet on the ground when getting on
and getting off the bicycle.
* When cycling, check to see that no body parts or clothing end up near the rotating or moving parts,
such as a foot in the spokes or a fi nger in the braking mechanism. Check this regularly as the child gets
older.
* If you use a sprung saddle, ensure that the child cannot get his or her fi ngers stuck between the springs
by putting a protective cap around the springs. This cap is available at specialist stores.
* Ensure that the child cannot come into contact with sharp objects, such as a frayed cable.
* Ensure that your child wears suffi ciently warm clothing and is protected from the rain. Your child will be
sitting still on bicycle rides, so he or she will be more susceptible to the cold.
* Your child should preferably wear a well-fi tting bicycle helmet for additional safety.
* If the seat is in the sun for a long time, it can get very hot, so take care before putting your child in the
seat.
* Remove the seat if you transport the bicycle by car on a bicycle rack. Air turbulence may cause the seat
or the attachment to become loose and may cause an accident.
WARNING
* Do not attach any additional luggage to the child seat. If you wish to transport luggage, please use a
front luggage carrier.
* Never alter anything on the seat or the attachment provided yourself, as you may affect safety when in
use and the warranty will no longer apply.
* Please bear in mind that the bicycle will perform differently when carrying a child, especially its balance,
steering and braking.
* Never leave your child alone in the seat on the back when you put down your bicycle.
* Do not use the seat if it has visible damage or faults.
MAINTENANCE
* Clean the seat regularly using soapy water.
* Check regularly to see whether all attachments etc. are still fi rmly secured.
* The seat must always be replaced following an accident, even if there is no visible damage. Please inform
your supplier if this happens.
* If part of the seat is faulty or damaged, please contact your supplier for advice or a repair.
