Page 19: Storage
Storage Storing this Thule child carrier properly will reduce the amount of wear, especially to the fabric. Type of Use Hard cornering, fast acceleration and braking all contribute to premature wear of various components especially brakes and tires. Weather Various weather conditions affect individual components differently. Direct sunlight prematurely wears the fabric and rubber wheels. Salt in the air or on the road affects the wheel rims and fabric floor. Dirt and mud can get into moving parts and contribute to wear as well. Premature wear of a component is not necessarily signs of a defective product. The way this child carrier is used and cared for will greatly affect how quickly it wears.
