- Parent Mode (10-18 Months): Features a backrest, parent control bar, footrest, canopy, and armrest for full parental control and child safety.
- Push Mode (18-24 Months): Retains the backrest, parent control bar, and footrest, allowing the child to sit upright while being pushed.

Setup Instructions
The Liki Trike S3 comes fully assembled, ready to use straight out of the box. Follow these steps for initial setup and adjustments.
Unfolding the Liki Trike
To unfold the trike, simply release the locking mechanism and extend the frame until it clicks into place. Ensure all parts are securely locked before use.

Attaching/Removing the Parent Handle
The parent control bar can be easily inserted or removed from the rear of the trike. Locate the pin release mechanism on the trike's frame, press it, and slide the handle into or out of position. Ensure it locks securely.

Attaching/Removing Pedals
The pedals can be attached to the front wheel for tricycle mode or stored as footrests. To attach, align the pedal with the slot on the front wheel and push until it clicks. To remove, press the red button on the pedal and pull it out. For younger children, the pedals can be locked in a non-functional position or removed entirely to serve as footrests.
Operating Instructions
Steering Control
The Liki Trike S3 features a dual-steering system. A lock mechanism on the front handlebar allows you to switch between child-controlled steering and parent-controlled steering. When the lock is engaged (up position), the child can steer. When disengaged (down position), the parent control bar dictates the direction, allowing the child's handlebar to move freely without affecting steering.

Sun Protection Canopy
The Liki Trike S3 includes a UPF 50+ and water-repellent canopy. It can be adjusted forward or backward to provide optimal shade for your child. The canopy can also be folded down or removed when not needed.
Braking System
The trike is equipped with a foot-operated brake on the rear wheel. Press down on the brake pedal to engage the brake and ensure the trike remains stationary. Lift the pedal to release the brake.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and safe operation of your Liki Trike S3, regular maintenance is recommended:
- Cleaning: Wipe down the frame with a damp cloth and mild soap. Fabric parts can be spot cleaned or removed for hand washing according to care labels.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws, bolts, and moving parts to ensure they are secure and functioning correctly.
- Storage: Store the trike in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your Liki Trike S3, please refer to the following common solutions:
- Difficulty Folding/Unfolding: Ensure all locking mechanisms are fully disengaged before attempting to fold or unfold. Apply gentle, even pressure.
- Steering Issues: Check the dual-steering lock on the front handlebar to ensure it is in the desired position (engaged for child control, disengaged for parent control).
- Loose Parts: Regularly inspect and tighten any loose screws or connections. Do not use the trike if any parts are damaged or missing.
