nuts holding the metal retaining plate and removing the plate. Then attach
the block to the bottom of the base element. To be able to attach the block to
the basic element, you must first pull out the red knob on the front of the seat.
Slide the block under the seat from the rear, in a circular motion with the red
arrow pointing forwards. Start the movement from the back of the seat. Slide
the block through until it reaches the end of the recess in the seat and clicks
firmly into place. You can then lock the block into place by pressing the red
button on the front. Now insert the metal bracket into the opening in the block
and retain it using the metal retaining plate that you had previously removed.
Tighten the two nuts (torque 5 Nm) using the Allen key 4. The position of the
block depends on the centre of gravity of the seat with respect to the rear
axle.
Figure 5Md | Positioning the seat on the frame attachment
Remove the retaining ring from the bracket. Slide the ends of the bracket
through the openings in the frame attachment until the bracket clicks into
place. If necessary, press the red release knob to be able to slide the bracket
completely into the clamp. Insert the retaining ring through the bracket to
secure the seat in place.
Figure 5Me | Check whether the seat is correctly mounted
To ensure that the seat is correctly attached, you need to:
A) Check that the centre of gravity of the seat is no more than 10 cm
behind the rear axle of the bicycle.
B) Check that the bottom of the seat is at least 10 cm above the rear
wheel.
C) Check that the seat is mounted in a straight ahead position by turning
the bicycle's handlebars to the straight ahead position and drawing an
imaginary line from the middle of the seat via the saddle to the middle
of the handlebars.
To adjust the position of the seat, you need to change the position of the
frame attachment, either by adjusting its angle or its height on the saddle
tube. Place your child in the seat and check that there is sufficient distance
between the saddle and the front of the seat to allow your child to sit
comfortably. To increase the distance between the saddle and the seat, you
must adjust the position of the block on the bracket.
Figure 4F | Additional wheel protectors
Use the additionally supplied transparent wheel protectors to extend the
barrier between the wheel and the legs of the child. Slide the extension over
the transparent foot support guard until it clicks into place. This increases the
safety of the child while cycling.
INSTALLING THE STYLING SET
The choice of styling set allows you to determine the look of your child's seat.
You can choose between a Basic or a De-luxe styling set.
Figure 6M | Attaching the foot straps
Insert the foot straps with the Qibbel logo on the inside through the opening.
Pull them through from the bottom to the top until they click into place.
Figure 7M | Attaching the armrests
Click the armrest into the opening. Attach the armrest using the supplied
screws, tighten them gently (torque 1 Nm) using Allen key 2.5. Do this on both
sides of the seat.
Figure 8Ma | Adjusting the height of the safety belt
Dependent on the size of your child, you use the clamps that are present to
raise the position of the safety belt. This can be done easily by tilting the clips
with a coin, which releases the harness. You can now fix the safety belt in
another position. Do not use sharp objects, including screwdrivers, as these
can damage the clips.

For larger children, it is also possible to run the belts via the top of the seat
back. Pull the belts backwards through the recess in the seat back. Then put
the belts into place via the guides over the top of the seat.
Figure 8Mb | Attaching the seat upholstery
Check that the safety belt is clamped firmly at the right height before you fit
the upholstery. The belt needs to match the height of your child's shoulder.
Undo the safety belt (three point – light grey – push simultaneously) and split
it into two parts (light grey). Pull the two split parts of the safety belt through
the holes in the upholstery from the back to the front, then ensure that the
upholstery is correctly positioned. Push the seat drain plug through the drain
hole, which fastens the upholstery in place.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Figure 1F | Adjusting the seat to the sleeping position
Pulling out the red knob at the front of the seat allows you to adjust the seat
to the sleeping position. Various positions are possible. When the seat is in the
correct position, push the knob at the front back in. Note: you can only press
the knob back in when the seat is in one of the preselected positions.
Figure 2F | Adjusting the footrests
The footrests are easy to adjust without the use of tools. Adjust the footrest by
rotating the clip upwards through 90 degrees then sliding it up or down into
the preformed positions. When the footrest is at the correct height, push the
clip down to lock it.
Figure 3F | Using the safety belt
To undo the safety belt: press the three light grey points simultaneously and
slide the belt clasp upward. If required, you can separate the two shoulder
straps by sliding the light grey parts of the clasp apart, for instance when
your child is wearing a helmet or when you want to change the height of
the safety belt. Do up the safety belt by first sliding the two light grey parts
together and then sliding them into the clasp body. Tighten the belt until it is
comfortably tight when your child is sitting straight in the seat. You can loosen
the belt by pressing the grey button on the adjuster, which you then tilt and
slide. When the shoulders of your child are higher or lower than the normal
belt attachment point, you can use the clamps that are present to clamp the
belt at another height. Use a coin to undo the clips by tilting them from the
top. Do not use sharp objects, including screwdrivers, as these can damage
the clips. The safety belt must normally align to the child's shoulders.
When using the De-luxe styling set, pull the two shoulder straps of the safety
belt through the corresponding openings in the upholstery from the back to
the front and ensure that the upholstery is correctly positioned. If your child's
shoulders are higher than the highest normal attachment points, you can
reroute the shoulder straps over the top of the seat. To do this, first pull the
shoulder straps through the openings in the seat back, then route them via
the guides on the top of the seat over the shoulders of your child.
MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR ACCESSORIES
Figure 3M | Lock
To protect the seat being stolen, you can lock it in place using the available
lock. If the seat is attached to the carrier, lock it to the carrier, if the seat is
attached to the frame lock it by attaching the lock through the hole at the
end of the bracket.
