Operating Instructions

Using your TRIXIE T39336 Transport Box effectively:

1. Placement in Vehicle: Position the transport box in the trunk of your car. The slanted sides are designed for optimal use of trunk space, fitting snugly against the back seats.
2. Securing the Box: Use appropriate straps or a non-slip mat (not included) to prevent the box from shifting during travel. The box features strong grippy Velcro on the bottom for added stability on carpeted surfaces.
3. Introducing Your Pet: Gently guide your dog into the transport box. Ensure they have enough space to stand, turn around, and lie down comfortably.
4. Closing the Door: Close the door and engage the safety lock. Verify that the lock is fully engaged and the door cannot be opened by your pet.
5. Monitoring During Travel: Periodically check on your pet during long journeys. Ensure they remain calm and comfortable.
6. Exiting the Vehicle: When opening the car's trunk, the secure door allows you to control when your pet exits, preventing premature jumping out.
