ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Turn the child seat upside down as shown in the image. Cut the plastic
straps that hold the mounting block (I).
2. Remove the metallic bracket (H) from the seat by cutting the straps.
Disengage and remove the metallic bracket (H) from the child seat, pulling
it upwards.
3. Use the Allen key No. (I5) to loosen and remove the metal mounting
plate (J1).
4. Hold the metallic bracket (H) the same as in the picture and pass it
through the opening in the child bicycle seat.
5. In order to adjust the child bicycle seat according to the bicycle size, set
the metallic bracket (H) into one of the three allowed positions to move
the seat backward or forward. At the beginning we suggest to place it on
the position No. 3.
6. Insert the metallic mounting plate (J1) on the grooves of the child
bicycle seat, and close it as indicated in the picture.
7. Place the washer (J3) on the screw (J2). Then tighten securely with the
key (I5). Tighten tightly so that the metal bracket (H) is securely fastened.
This step is extremely important for the safety of the child.
8. Clip the footrest protection (E1) onto the child seat (A). Make sure that
they are correctly positioned. This step is extremely important for the
child's safety.
9. Remove the screws (I1) on the mounting block (I), with the Allen key
no. 5 (I5).
10. Before placing the block onto the frame, make sure that the protective
rubber (I8) is correctly positioned on front of the block.
11. Place the main body of the mounting block (I2) on the front of the
bicycle frame, and then place the metallic mounting plate (I4).
Note: If they are cables in this area make sure that they are correctly
positioned in the central groove of the metallic plate, (between the
protective rubber (I8) and the groove of the mounting plate (I4) and are
able to move freely).
12. Place the washer (I6) in the M8 screws (I1), and then screw them
on to the mounting block (I). Tighten the screws, with the Key (I5), so
that the mounting block (I) is secured but not fully tightened so that, if
necessary, you can adjust the height later. However, note that it should
be tight to make it easier to complete the next step. You need to tighten
the 4 screws diagonally and in stages. Check the safety of the fasteners
regularly.
13. Place the edges of the metallic bracket (H) at the holes of the
mounting block (I) until you hear a click indicating the lock, and until the 2
green safety device indicators pop up on the front of the mounting block.
The child bicycle seat will only be properly installed when the 2 green
safety device indicators are visible. This step is extremely important for the
child's safety.
14. Centre and adjust the metallic bracket (H) at a height above the
rear wheel, so that later, when you add the weight of the child, the
child bicycle seat does not touch the wheel. Note that the metallic
bracket (H) should be positioned at a maximum of 10 cm away from
the wheel. The child seat has a center of gravity (F) (engraved on the
child seat) that must be positioned in front of the rear wheel axle. If it
is positioned behind the axle, the distance must not exceed 10 cm.
If the center of gravity is at a upper distance from the axle, adjust the
metal bracket to one of the available positions. Special care must also be
taken when positioning the child seat to ensure that the cyclist does not
touch the child seat with his feet when cycling.
Note: In Germany, according to the German Traffic Law StVZO, bicycle
seats may only be fixed so that 2/3 of the seat depth or the Gravity Center
of the seat is located between the front and rear axle of the bicycle.
15. After adjusting the height and positioning of the seat, hand tighten
the mounting block (I) to ensure that it cannot move. This tightening must
be manual and is extremely important for the safety of the child. Make
sure that the mounting block (I) is firmly attached. You need to hand tight
the 4 screws diagonally, with the same force and in stages (I5).
