6.2. Wheels
Have the wheels (tyres, rims, tension of spokes) checked by your specialist dealer at least once a year.
6.3. Storage
Store your Croozer in a dry and well-ventilated place. Before storing your Croozer, it should be dry to prevent the
growth of mould and the formation of marks from mildew. Put your Croozer as little as possible in direct sunlight to
prevent colours fading. Do not store the trailer coupled to the bicycle over a long period of time.
Please note: As well as rubber, tyres contain many chemical substances which improve their physical
characteristics. In unfavourable circumstances, these substances may lead to staining of the transparent side
panels of the child transporter. For this reason, always store wheels in such a way that they do not come into
contact with these side panels.
7. Guarantee
The statutory warranty covers defects. Damage resulting from improper use, use of force, lack of maintenance, or
normal wear and tear, is excluded from such a statutory defect warranty.
The period of statutory warranty depends on the law of the country in question.
Our products have components or parts which are also subject to natural wear and tear arising from normal use,
depending very much on the type and degree of use and also how well the product has been serviced and
maintained. In particular where there has been a lot of use (day in day out and in all kinds of weather), individual
parts or components can reach their wear limit before the statutory guarantee period has expired. Because a product
has become prematurely worn because of use, it does not automatically mean the product is defective.
We have therefore listed in the following table, for your information, the important parts affected by wear and tear
and have named typical contributing factors related to use, which may considerably influence wear limit. This table
complements the existing operation guide – please do also note the instructions on “Maintenance, Care and Storage
of the CROOZER” in your operation guide.
