If there is any kind of damage whatsoever to the hitcharm,
then it must be replaced so as to prevent breakage which
could result in an accident in which your passenger(s) could
suffer serious injury or death.
Wheels
Clean the wheel axles,
the retaining balls and the
push-button pin regularly.
Apply some grease or oil
to the retaining balls and
push-button pin.
WA R NI NG
!
If the retaining balls and push-button pin are not regular-
ly maintained, they may lose their securing function. This
could result could result in the loss of the wheels causing an
accident in which you and/or your passenger(s) could suffer
serious injury or death.
Have the wheels (tires, rims, tension of spokes, axle bearing)
checked by your authorized Chariot retailer at least once every
year.
Clean the wheels regularly and give them a protective wax,
particularly just before the onset of Winter.
Fabric
Check the fabric regularly for signs of damage (e.g. tears).
Contact your authorized Chariot retailer immediately if you fi nd
a tear in the fabric. The fabric can be repaired or replaced.
W AR N I N G
!
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 and be seriously injured.
Clean the fabric regularly with domestic soap or a mild
cleansing agent and warm water. Never use thinners or
cleaning solvent.
Storage
Store your Chariot CTS in a dry and well-ventilated place.
Before storing your carrier, it should be dry to prevent the
growth of mould and the formation of mildew. Expose your
carrier as little as possible to direct sunlight to prevent fabric
colours from fading. Do not store the Bicycle Trailer coupled to
the bicycle over a long period of time.
As well as rubber, tires contain many chemical substances
which improve their physical characteristics. In unfavourable
circumstances, these substances may lead to staining of the
transparent side and front windows on the carrier. For this
reason, always store wheels in such a way that they do not
come into contact with these windows.
General Maintenance
Look after your carrier. All painted, chrome or galvanised parts
(including screw connectors) should be regularly cleaned and
protected using standard products for this purpose. Ask your
specialist retailer about suitable products for protecting your
carrier.
