Folding the Stroller

- Fabric: The mesh seat fabric is stain and water-resistant. For cleaning, remove the fabric components if possible. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach or iron.
- Frame: Wipe the aluminum frame with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
- Wheels: Periodically clean the wheels and axles to remove dirt and debris. Lubricate moving parts with a silicone-based lubricant if necessary.
Regular Checks
Regularly inspect the stroller for loose fasteners, worn parts, or torn material. If any damage is found, discontinue use and contact UPPAbaby customer service for assistance.
6. Troubleshooting
- Stroller difficult to fold/unfold: Ensure all locking mechanisms are disengaged before folding. Apply even pressure to the hand-level triggers. Check for any obstructions in the folding mechanism.
- Wheels not rolling smoothly: Check for debris (e.g., hair, lint) wrapped around the axles. Clean and lubricate as needed. Ensure brakes are fully disengaged.
