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 familiar-

ise yourself with the legal requirements of the country or

region where you plan to use the Croozer.

Before your rst ride...

It is vitally important that you familiarise yourself with the

Croozer before you use it for transporting children. Prior

to your rst outing with passengers, Zwei plus zwei GmbH

recommends that you practice towing the trailer (without

passengers) 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 towing, for example, by strapping a

loaded 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 must be strapped into the

safety harnesses at all times. Follow the instructions pro-

vided in this manual for adjusting and 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 stops.

Adult supervision

Never leave children in the Croozer unattended. It is

the adult’s responsibility to ensure that the ventilation

and temperature conditions in the Croozer are safe and

comfortable for the child at all times. Check on the child’s

well-being frequently.

Keep handlebar attached

Leave the handlebar attached to the Croozer 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, keep ngers

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

frame parts and locking mechanisms).

Pulling the Croozer 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 attached components correctly inserted and

secured (i.e. the respective fastening/locking mecha-

nisms engaged)? Check that none of the security pins

are hanging freely from their straps.

• Are the tyres inated to the recommended pressure?

The tyre pressure should never be higher or lower than

the maximum and minimum ination pressures marked

on the tyre sidewall. (See also page 42.) Never use

compressed air, e.g. from a petrol station, to ll your

tyres. The quick 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 into or out of the trailer, the parking brake of the

Croozer 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, which can

result in accidents with serious injury or death.

Riding over kerbs or uneven surfaces

Riding over a kerb 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 kerb or similar obstruction, always use ex-

treme caution and ride at very low speeds. Never use the

Croozer on stairs or escalators.

Risk of injury from rotating parts

Always make sure that the child cannot reach the wheels

of the Croozer 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 and/or

plastic windows at the front of the cover in order to protect

the passenger from ying insects or small stones thrown

up from the rear wheel of the towing bicycle, which can

result in serious injuries for the passengers.

The Croozer’s plastic windows and fabric cover offer only

minimal protection against UV rays. Take the same precau-

tions 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 as a Bicycle Trailer in road trafc

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

during transport. Loose cargo and overloading can change

the handling of the Croozer, 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.

Never use the handlebar for carrying loads, such as chil-

dren’s vehicles or bags (other than the Handlebar Console

available as an accessory). Cargo attached to the outside

of the Croozer can drastically affect its handling and stabil-

ity, potentially resulting in accidents with serious injury or

death.
