3.4 Safety instructions for carrying infants
Children who cannot as yet sit up without support may only
be carried using the Chariot infant Sling (accessory).
The Manufacturer accepts no liability for use of other sitting
aids or baby seats.
Please make sure you follow the safety instructions in the
Chariot Infant Sling Owner’s Manual
3.5 Safety instructions for maintenance and
repairs
The maintenance work specifi ed (see Section 12) is
absolutely essential for the long-term safe operation of the
carrier.
Only use original spare parts. When replacing safety-related
parts, such as the frame, wheels, hitcharm and fabric, only
have this carried out by an Authorized Chariot Retailer.
Regularly check all safety-related parts, such as the frame,
wheels, hitcharm and fabric, for damage or tearing. At the
fi rst sign of damage have the relevant part replaced by your
Authorized Chariot Retailer.
Tears in the fabric actually represent a high safety risk. Due
to tears in the fabric your child could come into contact with
the wheels or the road surface.
If you fi nd a tear in the fabric, stop using and contact your
Authorized Chariot Retailer immediately: the fabric can either
be repaired or replaced.
Never try to straighten out bent safety-related parts such
as the frame, wheels or hitcharm. Have the relevant part
replaced by your Authorized Chariot Retailer. There is a risk
of it cracking and subsequently breaking.
We recommend annual maintenance of the wheels by your
Authorized Chariot Retailer.
3.6 Warning against unauthorised modifi cations
and additions
Unauthorised rebuilds or modifi cations of the carrier are
not permitted for reasons of safety and render the warranty
invalid.
The fi tting of a car safety seat or other seats or seat supports
that do not carry the express approval of the Manufacturer is
not permitted.
Do not fi t any additional parts, such as a luggage rack,
for instance, that do not carry the express approval of the
Manufacturer.
The carrying of pedal cars, which are attached to the
handlebar or some other part of the carrier, is not permitted.
