pean safety requirements.
The durability of this product is 7 years when it is used on a daily basis. Hereafter
we recommend that the product should be renovated (by R82 personnel) to extend

Activate the brakes before placing the user on the tilttable. To obtain the best
control, place the user on the tilttable when it’s in horizontal position. The user
must be fastened securely before tilting into a vertical position.
Remove the CE-mark, when rebuilding the product or when using other than
original R82 spare parts.
Never leave your child unattended in this product. Ensure permanent super-
vision by an adjult. Incorrect use of the Buffalo, may cause serious injury to

correctly and check it on a regular basis.
We do not recommend moving the Buffalo with the child in it over long distan-
ces, over joints in carpets, over uneven surfaces or outside.
