CARRIER MAINTENANCE, CARE AND STORAGE A. Hitch Maintenance - Check that the hitch and back up straps are properly secured before every ride. Periodically check the hitch for damage, cracks, etc. Replace at first sign of damage. Any damage/deterioration on any parts of your Chariot carrier should be repaired/replaced immediately to reduce the risk of personal injury. B. Fabric/Shell Care - Your Chariot Carrier is manufactured from a tough, durable, water resistant fabric. Clean fabric with household soap or mild detergent and warm water only. Wipe dry. Do not machine dry. C. Wheels and Axles - Wheels should be serviced by a Chariot Dealer at least twice a year. Check wheels for loose spokes and axles for proper security every time you use your Chariot carrier. D. Hardware and Fasteners - Regularly inspect nuts and bolts to ensure they are tightened securely. E. Storage - Store your carrier in a dry, well-ventilated area. To avoid mildew, make sure carrier is dry before storing. Keep your carrier out of the sun when not in use to reduce fading. Do not store the carrier attached to your bicycle. Always inspect all parts every time you use your carrier! 2 SAFETY GUIDELINES Sixteen important rules for the safe use of your Chariot Carrier. 1. Read all instructions before use! Failure to read, understand and follow these instructions may result in an otherwise avoidable accident in which you and/or your passengers could suffer serious injury or death. 2. The safe and proper use of this product is your responsibility! Take a practice bicycle ride, walk/run, hike, or cross-country ski with a weighted carrier (weighted greater than your expected load with children and cargo) before using your carrier to ensure you can handle a loaded carrier in each activity. Be extremely careful on hills and try to avoid them if possible. In addition to safe bicycle practices, the rules listed below must be followed at all times. 3. Make sure your bicycle is in good working condition. We recommend a frequent safety check of your bike by a certified bicycle mechanic. 4. Do not modify or alter carrier or bicycle. Ask your Chariot Dealer if you are not sure whether your bicycle is compatible with your carrier. 5. When used as a bicycle trailer, children must be at least 1 year old and be able to sit upright alone. Consult your pediatrician before carrying any child younger than one year. 6. Do not exceed the maximum carrier load of 75 lb (34 kg) for one child carriers and 100 lb (45 kg) for two child carriers. These capacities include the weight of child/children and cargo. Articles carried in the carrier should be well anchored to avoid shifting during travel. Unstable loads and overloading make the carrier less stable and more difficult to control. 7. Always fasten shoulder harness, lap belt and crotch strap securely and tightly around children. Periodically check placement of shoulder straps, especially for a sleeping child. Make sure children cannot put fingers into the wheel spokes. Instruct children not to bounce, rock or lean. 8. Do not leave children unattended in the carrier. 9. To insure a smooth ride, keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure shown on the tire side wall. Check tire pressure before each use. Over inflating tires or use of high pressure tires can cause the carrier to overturn. 10. Use this carrier only with non-motorized bicycles capable of supporting the additional load of the carrier and child. Do not use your carrier on electric bicycles, motorcycles, mopeds, automobiles or any other motor vehicle. Check the information supplied with your bike to verify compatibility or ask your dealer. 11. Do not use a kickstand or other parking device to support the bicycle with a trailer attached. Attaching a trailer can change the balance of the bicycle making kickstands ineffective. The bicycle can fall over, damaging it and the trailer. 12. Always use the high visibility flag supplied with the trailer. Do not assume you have the right-of-way. Do not pull your trailer in high traffic areas such as busy streets, highways or anyplace it may be unsafe to ride with children. 13. Always verify that the folding brackets are secure and hold the carrier in an upright position. 14. Avoid riding at night. Your ability to see and be seen is greatly reduced. If you must ride at night, use proper lighting and reflectors on your bicycle and wear bright reflective clothing 15. Both cyclist ...
