Operating Instructions

Before each ride, an adult should ensure the bicycle is in safe working condition.

Riding Safely:

• Braking: The bicycle is equipped with front wheel and rear wheel hand brakes on the handlebar, as well as a coaster brake (back-pedal brake). Teach the child to use both hand brakes simultaneously for effective stopping. The coaster brake provides an additional stopping mechanism.
• Steering: Guide the child on how to steer by gently turning the handlebars.
• Bell: The bell on the handlebar can be used to alert others.
• Accessories: The front basket can be used to carry light items. The doll seat is designed for carrying a doll or toy, not another child. Ensure items in the basket or doll seat are secure and do not interfere with steering or balance.
• Supervision: Always supervise children while they are riding the bicycle, especially when they are learning.

Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and safe operation of the bicycle.

Routine Checks:

• Brakes: Regularly check the functionality of the front, rear, and coaster brakes. Ensure brake levers are easily accessible and responsive. Adjust as needed.
• Tires: Check tire pressure before each ride. Ensure tires are adequately inflated and free from damage.
• Chain: The bicycle features a fully covered chain guard for protection. Periodically inspect the chain for proper tension and lubrication.
• Fasteners: Check all nuts, bolts, and quick-release mechanisms for tightness. Loose components can lead to accidents.
• Reflectors: Ensure all reflectors are clean, intact, and securely attached.
• Cleaning: Clean the bicycle regularly with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh chemicals.
• Storage: Store the bicycle in a dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent rust and material degradation.

Troubleshooting

This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your Byox Puppy bicycle.

Common Issues and Solutions:

• Brakes not working effectively: Check brake cable tension and brake pad alignment. Adjust as per the assembly instructions or consult a bicycle mechanic.
• Tires losing air quickly: Inspect tires for punctures or valve issues. Inflate to recommended pressure. If punctures are present, repair or replace the inner tube.
• Loose parts: Periodically check and tighten all bolts, nuts, and screws, especially on the handlebars, seat post, and wheels.
• Squeaking noises: Lubricate the chain if it sounds dry. Check for any rubbing parts, especially around the wheels and brakes.
• Difficulty pedaling: Ensure the chain is properly seated on the sprockets and is not too tight or too loose. Check for any obstructions.

If you encounter issues not listed here or are unable to resolve a problem, please contact customer support or a qualified bicycle technician.
