Routine Maintenance

STORE IN A COOL AND DRY AREA, especially in the summer. Do not store the stroller in the trunk of
a vehicle.

SEAT CUSHION
The seat cushion is machine washable. Set to gentle cycle using warm water and a mild detergent. Do
not use bleach. Lay seat cushion and canopy and car seat covers flat to dry in shaded area. Do not
machine dry. To prevent color fading, do not leave soaking for a long period. If the seat cushion is
frayed or unraveling, discontinue use and call consumer affairs for further instruction.

CANOPY, SEAT BELT, FIXED BASE SEAT, STROLLER PACK AND BASKET
Hand wash with a soft brush. Wipe out excess water with a dry cloth and dry in a shaded area. For
stubborn dirt, dilute a mild detergent then apply directly to the dirty area. Wipe out the detergent.

MAIN BODY
Briskly wipe off any mud and dirt. To clean the body, wipe with a damp cloth then wipe out any traces
of moisture on the body with a dry cloth. The main body might become moldy and musty if not wiped
dry.

Excessive exposure to the sun could cause premature color fading of stroller plastic and fabric.

WHEEL ASSEMBLIES
After prolonged normal use, the wheels of your stroller may not swivel or turn as easily as when the
stroller was new. This is usually due to a buildup of dirt in the swivel mechanism. Before adding lubri-
cation, remove the swivel wheels by pressing the release button and wiping off mud and dirt. Do not
use soap and water to wash wheels.
Periodically check that all screws, bolts and nuts are tight.

Avoid lubricating the swivel wheels whenever possible. Excessive lubrication or adding lubricant to
swivel wheels when new may cause them to develop a
shimmy or wobble that may quicken their deterioration.
Add silicone* to the wheel assemblies in small amounts.

Do not use lubricants because oil attracts dust and
would hinder the movement rather than improve it.

*Silicone spray is available in varying size cans at most hardware stores.
