Safety Instructions
Before usin the Kimba Cross, you should become familiar with the handlin , function and use of the product.
a) When using the Kimba Cross with rigidly mounted or with swivelling front wheel:
• Get to know in particular how the Kimba Cross with your seatin system reacts when the center of ravity is shifted;
for example on slopes or inclines or when clearin obstacles, like steps and curbs.
• Use your Kimba Cross properly. For instance, do not drive into obstacles (includin steps, curbs) without brakin .
• Stairs should be ascended/descended only with assistance from an attendant. If devices such as ramps or elevators
are available, they should be used. If such devices are missin , two attendants must carry the Kimba Cross over the
obstacle.
• When usin liftin platforms, be sure the anti-tipper is outside the dan er-area.
• Only lift the Kimba Cross with parts that are solidly attached.
• Park the Kimba Cross only on level surfaces and always apply the drum brakes. Avoid parkin the Kimba Cross on
an incline.
Make sure that you brin the seat to an upri ht position.
21
• You must use the anti-tipper accessory whenever the center of ravity is shifted rearwards in the Kimba Cross
(such as when usin the swivellin front wheel, or when the backrest is in the sleepin position). With the center of
ravity shifted rearwards, and without the anti-tipper accesory, the Kimba Cross can tip over, even on a flat surface.
• Do not attach any objects to the pushbar which can affect the center of ravity.
• When your child reaches for objects in front, to the side or behind the Kimba Cross, make sure that he or she does
not lean out of it too far, since the shift in the center of ravity mi ht cause the Kimba Cross to tilt or tip over.
• Before leavin the Kimba Cross and before ettin into and out of it, always lock the brakes.
• Never leave your child unattended in the Kimba Cross, even if the belts are in use and the brakes are en a ed.
• Check the pneumatic tires for proper inflation levels (printed on the outer wall of the tire) and make sure the tires have
sufficient tread depth.
• Please keep packa in material away from children. Plastic packa in presents the dan er of suffocation.
• Trays must not be loaded with heavy objects.
• The Kimba Cross has been approved for the transport of only one child.
• All accessories and add-on components will reduce the remainin maximal load capacity.
• The maximal load for the Kimba seatin unit is 35 k . The Kimba Cross mobility base has a load capacity of 50 k .
b) Also, when using the Kimba Cross as a bicycle trailer:
• Never use a tray when usin the Kimba Cross as a bicycle trailer.
• The maximal sittin hei ht of the body (measurement from buttocks to head) must not exceed 70 cm.
• Be careful ridin the bicycle because the trailer will chan e how the bicycle handles and increase the stoppin
distance.
• Please note that when usin your Kimba Cross in the public traffic, you must observe the traffic re ulations accord-
in to the vehicle re ulations for your area. For this reason, all components of the trailer accessories packa e must
be mounted on the trailer.
• The child sittin in the trailer must wear seat belts and a safety helmet. A four-point belt and a roin strap must be
applied to prevent the child from slippin out of the Kimba Cross.
• This accessories packa e, not includin an additional brake (for use on the trailer) can be used with bicycle trailers
with a maximal total wei ht of 40 k .
• Modifications on the couplin and other additional assemblies are not allowed. Please observe these instructions,
otherwise you can expose your child and yourself to dan er.
• Only use the supplied "Weber” coupling.
• Read the Instructions for Use of the "Weber coupling" included with this unit as well as the instructions
attached to the draw-bar.
c) General safety instructions
•You must check the proper fit and clamping pressure of the axle!
• Be careful not to injure your fin ers durin adjustment and assembly.
• Use your Kimba Cross with Otto Bock seatin system only in accordance with the instructions for use.
•When usin a seatin unit from another manufacturer, this manufacturer must confirm compatibility.
• Every time you mount the wheels, make sure that the rear quick-release axles have engaged correctly and
that the front quick-release axle has been locked with sufficient clamping pressure.
• After each readjustment of the seat tilt, make sure that you firmly tighten the turning handle. Also check the
handle often during use.
• Make sure to snugly re-tighten the screws (two on the left and two on the right) after adjusting the telescoping
front frame.
• We would like to point out that children seated in the seating systems must at all time be secured with suitable
safety systems (straps/belts).
•Using your Kimba Cross as a seat in motor vehicles.
We recommend that, whereever and whenever possible, Kimba Cross users transfer to the seats installed in the
motor vehicle and use the correspondin vehicle restraint systems, because this is the only way to ensure optimal
protection of the passen ers in case of an accident. For the time bein , Otto Bock has not yet released the Kimba
Cross for use as a motor vehicle transportation seat. If you’d like to use it in this way, you must have your vehicle
specially outfitted with a restraint system that conforms to any applicable standards. Otto Bock will provide a
release upon request.
