Read and observe this manual!
This manual contains information that is extremely impor-
tant for the safety of you, your dog and other road users.
Therefore, it is essential that you read the entire manual
carefully and follow the instructions closely. If you should
experience dif culties understanding any of the information
or instructions, please contact your Croozer dealer. Keep
this manual handy at all times for future reference. If you
loan or sell your Croozer Dog, pass on this manual to the
new user. It is also vitally important that you read and ob-
serve the instructions provided in the manual of the towing
bicycle.
Who can ride in the Croozer Dog?
The Croozer Dog is intended for use with dogs and other
small animals up to 19 inches (48 cm) in height (chin to top
of head when standing). The vehicle is designed to carry a
maximum weight of 88 lbs (40 kg).
Who can ride the towing bicycle?
Be sure to acquaint yourself with the applicable laws in the
state or country where you plan to use the Croozer Dog.
Requirements for the towing bicycle
The towing bicycle must be approved by its manufacturer
for pulling a trailer. This information can be found in the
owner’s manual of the bicycle. Furthermore, the towing
bicycle must be in perfect working order and have strong,
properly functioning brakes. The rear wheel of the towing
bicycle must be equipped with an effective splashguard.
Otherwise, your dog could be injured by stones and other
debris thrown up from the road. Motorised vehicles may
not be used for pulling Bicycle Trailers. The only exception
to this rule is a pedelec. This special type of e-bicycle has
an electric motor that delivers assist only when the rider
pedals. In many countries, pedelecs legally qualify as
bicycles. However, e-bikes with a maximum speed of more
than 12 mph (20 km/h) may not be used for pulling the
trailer. The towing bicycle should be equipped with a sturdy
rear-mount kickstand to ensure safety when loading and
unloading your dog.
Be sure to familiarise yourself with the legal requirements
that apply to towing bicycles in the country or state where
you will be using the Croozer Dog.
The towing bicycle must have a 26” or 28” (559 or 622mm)
rear wheel. This information can be found on the tyre
sidewalls. The numbers 42-622, for example, indicate that
the tyre has a width of 42 mm and a bead-seat diameter of
622 mm (28 inches).
Legal requirements for using a Bicycle
Trailer
Be sure to familiarise yourself with the legal requirements
that apply to pulling a Bicycle Trailer in the country or state
where you will be using the Croozer Dog.
Before your  rst ride ...
It is vitally important that you familiarise yourself with the
Croozer Dog before you use it for transporting your dog.
You will also need to help your dog get used to the Croozer
Dog (see page 16). Prior to your  rst trip, Zwei plus zwei
GmbH recommends taking a practice ride (without your
dog) in a calm, traf c-free area; load the Trailer with cargo
of approximately the same weight as your dog, for exam-
ple, by strapping a loaded rucksack into the cabin. This is
a great way to become acquainted with the handling of the
bicycle and the dimensions of the trailer.
Buckle up!
For your safety and the safety of your dog and other road
users, dogs should always be leashed inside the trailer.
Crushing hazard
When folding and unfolding the Croozer Dog, keep  ngers
and hands clear of all possible pinch points (e.g. movable
frame parts and locking mechanisms).
Pulling the Croozer Dog as a Bicycle Trailer
Before each ride, check the following:
Are the wheels securely attached?
Are both vertical frame tubes snapped securely into the
clips?
Are all security pins correctly inserted and locked?
Check that none of the security pins are hanging freely
from their straps.
Check tyre pressure prior to each ride. The actual tyre
pressure should never be higher or lower than the
maximum and minimum in ation pressures marked on
the tyre sidewall. (See also page 24). Never use com-
pressed air, e.g. from a gas/petrol station, to  ll your
tyres. The rapid air ow and high pressure can overin-
ate the tyres, causing the tube and/or tyre to burst.
Turning
Always reduce your speed to a walking pace when mak-
ing turns with the Bicycle Trailer. Keep in mind that riding
speed is often underestimated, especially on bikes with
electric assist. When turning at high speeds, the increased
centrifugal force can cause the trailer to skid or tip over
and result in accidents with serious injury or death.
