Safety instructions for use as an
XC Skiing Carrier
Please note: For the CX 1 and CX 2 models there is a
special XC Skiing Kit.
The XC Skiing Kit of the other models does not fi t
because the axle is too short. The short axle will not
engage fully in the CX1 and CX2 models, with the result
that the skis would not be held securely.
Please make sure you read the safety instructions in the
“Safety” section at the beginning of this Owner’s Manual.
Before each journey check that all components are properly
fi tted, particularly the skis and the tow bars.
Always make sure that the security pin of the tow bars
are properly installed, so as to prevent the carrier from
accidentally separating from the arms.
Always make sure the buckle on the strap is securely closed
and the strap fi ts tightly. If this is not done, the XC Skiing
Carrier might get separated from you and slide away. You run
the risk of an accident!
Make sure the length of the tow bars are adjusted correctly,
to ensure that your skis or poles will not come into contact
with the carrier.

Remember that the additional weight of the carrier with
the XC skiing kit considerably changes the way you ski,
particularly going up or down hills. For this reason, only an
experienced skier should use the carrier with the XC skiing
kit.
First take the carrier with the XC skiing kit for a practice run
without children, but with the maximum load. Perform the
practice run on terrain that is more diffi cult to ski than that
which you want to travel later with children.
Be mindful of the increased space needed when cross-
country skiing, due to the width and length of the carrier.
Take care in oncoming traffi c!
Never use the carrier with the XC skiing kit for downhill
skiing.
Never tow the carrier with the XC skiing kit behind a
snowmobile, quad or any motorized vehicle
Use extreme caution on hills, challenging trails, and when
stopping.
Regularly check on your children to ensure they are
comfortable and are warm enough.
