• If your trailer obstructs the lighting equipment of your SCOTT bike, you have
to mount the lighting equipment visibly to the trailer. Before riding in the dark,
provide the rear end of the trailer with a battery/accumulator-operated lamp
(a).
• Equip your trailer with a high safety flag to be seen better by other road users.
• Make sure your child always wears a helmet. Be a good example and remem-
ber to always wear a helmet (b) yourself.
• Adjust the tyre pressure (c) to the additional weight. The maximum pressure
is indicated on the tyre side.
• Make yourself familiar with the modified riding and braking behaviour of your
SCOTT bike with child/pet/cargo trailer in an area free of traffic.
• Adjust your riding style especially in wet conditions to the modified riding
characteristics and braking response of your SCOTT bike.
• Start by practising riding with an empty trailer in an area free of traffic. If you
feel secure practise riding with your child or pet or the additional load in an
area free of traffic.
• Luggage and cargo or the weight of children or pets generally modify the
riding characteristics of your SCOTT bike and extend the stopping distance!
Therefore, practise riding and braking with your loaded SCOTT bike in a place
free of traffic. Ride particularly considerately and anticipate critical situations.
WARNING
Observe the maximum permissible speed limit of the child/pet/cargo trailer.
You find this information in the accompanying user manuals of the respec-
tive manufacturer.
