Safety Guidelines

Legal requirements for transporting children

Be sure to observe all laws that apply to the transport

of children in child trailers. Some countries prohibit the

transport of children in child trailers, and others prescribe

certain age limits. In case of doubt, be sure to familiarise

yourself with the legal requirements of the country in which

you plan to use the Croozer Kid.

Before your rst ride...

It is vitally important that you familiarise yourself with the

Croozer Kid before you use it for transporting children.

Prior to your rst trip with passengers, Zwei plus zwei

GmbH recommends taking a practice ride with the trailer

in a calm, trafc-free area; load the trailer with cargo of

approximately the same weight as the child or children you

will be transporting, for example, by strapping a loaded

backpack/rucksack into the child seat. This is a great way

to acquaint yourself with the handling of the bicycle and

the dimensions of the trailer.

Buckle up!

Children riding in the Croozer Kid must be strapped into

the safety harnesses at all times. Follow the instructions

provided in this manual for fastening the safety harnesses

correctly. Children who are not properly secured in a safety

harness could sustain life-threatening injuries in the case

of accidents or sudden braking.

Looking after child passengers

Never leave children in the Croozer Kid unattended. It is

the user’s responsibility to ensure that the ventilation and

temperature in the trailer is comfortable for the passengers

at all times. Check on the passengers frequently to make

sure they are safe and comfortable in the Croozer Kid.

Keep handlebar attached

Leave the handlebar attached to the Croozer Kid at all

times. In the event of an accident, it acts as a roll bar,

protecting the passengers.

Crushing hazard

When folding and unfolding the Croozer Kid, keep ngers

and hands clear of all possible pinch points (e.g. movable

frame parts and locking mechanisms).

Pulling the Croozer Kid as a Bicycle Trailer

Before each ride, check the following:

• Are the wheels securely attached?

• Are the locking mechanisms on both vertical frame

tubes securely engaged?

• 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 38). 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.

Using the parking brake

When loading or unloading children, or when passengers

are getting in or out of the trailer, the parking brake of the

Croozer Kid must be engaged to prevent unintentional

rolling.

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.

Riding downhill

Always reduce your speed when riding downhill. Riding at

excessive speeds can cause the trailer to skid and result in

accidents with serious injury or death.

Riding over curbs or uneven surfaces

Riding over a curb or other obstacle with only one wheel

of the trailer could cause the trailer to tip over, resulting in

accidents with serious injury or death. Empty trailers are

especially susceptible to tipping. Therefore, if you have to

ride over a curb or similar obstruction, always use extreme

caution and ride at very low speeds. Never use the Croo-

zer Kid on stairs or escalators.

Risk of injury from rotating parts

Always make sure that the child cannot reach the wheels

of the Croozer Kid or the rear wheel of the towing bicycle.

Touching wheels that are in motion could result in serious

injuries.

Close the cover

When riding with the trailer, always close the mesh cover –

or both covers – in order to protect the passenger from y-

ing insects or small stones thrown up from the rear wheel

of the towing bicycle, which can result in serious injuries

for the passengers.

The vehicle’s plastic windows and fabric cover offer only

minimal protection against UV rays. Take the same pre-

cautions as you would outdoors to protect your child’s skin

from the harmful rays of the sun.

Being visible to others

Never use your Croozer Kid as a Bicycle Trailer without

the safety ag mounted. The safety ag makes it easier for

other road users to see you.

Carrying cargo

Never transport cargo items together with children on the

seat or in the foot area. Cargo must be well secured in the

rear cargo compartment to ensure that it cannot shift duri-

ng transport. Loose cargo and overloading can change the

handling of the Croozer Kid, making the vehicle more dif-

cult to control. Furthermore, cargo items can fall against

the seatback and injure the passenger. Never transport

animals together with children in the Croozer Kid.

Never attach loads, such as children’s vehicles or bags

(other than the Handlebar Console available as an ac-

cessory), to the handlebar of the Croozer Kid, as doing

so compromises the stability and handling of the vehicle,

which can result in accidents with serious injury or death.
