Operating Instructions

Stroller Use:

• Front Wheel Lock: For jogging, push the lever near the front wheel to lock it in a straight position. For strolling, unlock the wheel to allow it to swivel for easier turning.
• Reclining Seat: Adjust the multi-position reclining seat by squeezing the lever behind the seat and moving it to the desired angle.
• Canopy Adjustment: The adjustable canopy can be ratcheted forward or backward to provide optimal sun and wind protection. Use the peek-a-boo window to check on your child without disturbing them.
• Safety Harness: Always secure your child with the 5-point safety harness. Adjust straps for a snug fit.
• Brakes: Engage the rear wheel brakes by pressing down on the foot levers located near the rear wheels. Ensure both brakes are engaged when the stroller is parked.
• Folding the Stroller: To fold, locate the trigger mechanism on the handle (often a strap or lever). Pull or squeeze to initiate the fold, reducing the stroller to a compact unit for storage or transport.

Infant Car Seat Use:

• Harness Adjustment: The 5-point safety harness features an easy one-hand adjustment and push-button release for quick and secure fastening.
• Base Height Adjustment: The car seat base has a 4-position push-button height adjustment to ensure proper recline angle in your vehicle. Always check the level indicator.
• Car Seat Removal: To remove the infant car seat from the base or stroller, locate the release handle (usually at the back of the car seat) and lift the car seat.
