USING YOUR JOGGER
Test your Jogger and feel comfortable with it before attempting to use
it with a child. Install your Jogger on the trailer with the parking brake
securely engaged before putting your child in the trailer. Secure your child
as explained in your trailer manual.
Use the Jogger only on paths that are meant for jogging or walking. Do
not use the Jogger on steep slopes, which makes the trailer unstable. You
should be able to maintain traction and control of your trailer at all times.
Always use the handle bar tether to prevent the trailer getting loose. Do not
maneuver the trailer over stairs or other obstacles other than low curbs while
your child is in the trailer. Never use your Jogger with roller or inline skates.
While using the Jogger you have two braking options: a slowing down
brake while you’re running, which is mounted on the handle bar; and a
parking brake.
Never leave your child unattended in the Jogger. Engage the parking brake
when taking your child out of the trailer.
