may restrict the use of the carrier in some way.
3. This carrier is intended for carrying children during
daylight hours and travelling on light traffic roads,

(4”) below the carriers top Aluminum frame.
7. Never carry dangerous cargo. This includes fuel, heavy or
sharp items.
8. Always secure the luggage in the carrier. Unsecured
luggage may move thus making the carrier less stable.
9. Only light items are to be placed in the inside pockets or
rear pocket. No cargo or load should be placed in the area
