Setup and Assembly
Before first use, ensure all components are securely attached and the stroller is properly assembled. Refer to the quick start guide included in the packaging for detailed visual instructions.
Unfolding the Stroller
- Place the folded stroller on a flat, stable surface.
- Release the folding latch.
- Grasp the handlebar and lift upwards until the frame locks into place. Ensure all locking mechanisms are engaged.
Attaching Wheels
The wheels may come detached for shipping. Follow these steps to attach them:
- For rear wheels, align the axle with the wheel housing and push until it clicks securely into place.
- For the front wheel, insert the quick-release skewer through the wheel hub and secure it into the fork dropouts. Tighten the quick-release lever firmly.
Adjusting the Handlebar
The handlebar is adjustable to 9 positions to suit different user heights. Locate the adjustment buttons on either side of the handlebar. Press the buttons and pivot the handlebar to your desired height, then release the buttons to lock it in place.
Tire Inflation
The stroller features air-filled tires. Ensure they are properly inflated to the recommended PSI (pounds per square inch) for optimal performance and ride comfort. Check the tire sidewall for the exact PSI. Use a standard bicycle pump for inflation.
Operating Instructions
Child Seating and Harness
Always secure your child using the five-point no-rethread harness. Adjust the shoulder straps and waist straps to ensure a snug, comfortable fit. The harness is designed for easy adjustment without re-threading.
Seat Recline Adjustment
The seat offers a one-hand near-flat recline for napping and a fully upright position. To recline, locate the strap and buckle mechanism behind the seat. Squeeze the buckle to loosen the strap and recline the seat. To raise the seat, pull the strap until the desired upright position is achieved.
Canopy Operation
The extra-large UPF 50+ canopy provides ample shade and protection. Extend or retract the canopy by pushing or pulling its front edge. It features a peek-a-boo window for checking on your child.
Front Wheel Modes (Swivel/Locked)
The front wheel can be set to swivel mode for easy maneuverability in tight spaces or locked mode for stability during jogging or on uneven terrain. To switch modes, locate the red knob near the front wheel assembly. Rotate the knob to lock or unlock the swivel function.
Braking System
The stroller is equipped with a foot-activated parking brake and a hand-activated rear drum brake for downhill control.
- Parking Brake: Engage the parking brake by pressing down on the red lever located near the rear wheels. Ensure the stroller is stationary before engaging.
- Hand Brake: The hand-activated drum brake on the handlebar provides additional control, especially on inclines or declines. Squeeze the lever to apply the brake.
Folding the Stroller
The stroller features a convenient two-step fold. Ensure the front wheel is unlocked and the handlebar is in its lowest position. Follow the specific folding instructions provided in the quick start guide to collapse the stroller for storage or transport.
