12. Service, Care and Storage

Hitcharm

Check the hitcharm regularly for signs of damage (e.g. cracks).

DANGER

If there is any kind of damage whatsoever to the hitcharm, then it must be replaced so as to prevent breakage and the resulting risk of accident.

If in doubt ask your authorized Chariot retailer.

Wheels

Clean the wheel axles, the retaining balls and the push-button pin regularly. Apply some grease or oil to the retaining balls and push-button pin.

DANGER

If the retaining balls and push-button pin are not regularly maintained, they may lose their securing function. This may result in the wheel being lost and lead to serious accidents.

Have the wheels (tires, rims, tension of spokes, axle bearing) checked by your specialist retailer at least once every year.

Clean the wheels regularly and give them a protective wax, particularly just before the onset of Winter.

Clean the fabric regularly with domestic soap or a mild cleansing agent and warm water. Never use thinners or cleaning solvent.

Storage

Store your Chariot CTS in a dry and well-ventilated place. Before storing your carrier, it should be dry to prevent the growth of mould and the formation of mildew. Expose your carrier as little as possible to direct sunlight to prevent fabric colours from fading. Do not store the Bicycle Trailer coupled to the bicycle over a long period of time.

WARNING

As well as rubber, tires contain many chemical substances which improve their physical characteristics. In unfavourable circumstances, these substances may lead to staining of the transparent side and front windows on the carrier. For this reason, always store wheels in such a way that they do not come into contact with these windows.

General Maintenance

Look after your carrier. All painted, chrome or galvanised parts (including screw connectors) should be regularly cleaned and protected using standard products for this purpose. Ask your specialist retailer about suitable products for protecting your carrier.
