Setup and Installation
Follow these steps to properly install the car seat adapters onto your UPPAbaby stroller.
Step 1: Identify Adapter Sides
The adapters are marked 'L' for Left and 'R' for Right. Ensure you match them to the corresponding sides of your stroller frame. The stroller conveniently folds with the adapters attached.

Step 2: Attach Adapters to Stroller
Align each adapter with the designated attachment points on the stroller frame. Push firmly until you hear an audible 'click', confirming a secure connection. Color-coded dot indicators are present to assist with correct placement.

Step 3: Attach Infant Car Seat
Once the adapters are securely installed, align your compatible infant car seat with the adapters. Lower the car seat onto the adapters until it clicks into place. Ensure the car seat is firmly seated and does not wobble. The updated design allows your child to be closer to you in single mode and enables more space in double mode without additional upper adapters.

Operating Instructions
Using the Travel System:
With the infant car seat securely attached to the adapters, your UPPAbaby stroller is now a complete travel system. This allows for seamless transitions from car to stroller without disturbing your child. Always ensure the car seat is properly latched before moving the stroller.
Removing the Infant Car Seat:
To remove the infant car seat, locate the release mechanism on your specific car seat model (usually a handle or button). Activate the release and lift the car seat straight up from the adapters. Do not force removal if it feels stuck; re-check the release mechanism.
Folding the Stroller:
The UPPAbaby stroller can be conveniently folded with the adapters still attached. Refer to your stroller's instruction manual for specific folding procedures. Ensure the car seat is removed before folding.
Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and proper function of your car seat adapters, follow these maintenance guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the adapters with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Inspection: Regularly inspect the adapters for any signs of wear, damage, or loose parts. Check the attachment points for cracks or deformation.
- Storage: Store the adapters in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use.
- Lubrication: No lubrication is required for these adapters.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your UPPAbaby Car Seat Adapter, please refer to the following common solutions:
- Adapter does not click into place:
- Ensure you are using the correct 'L' (Left) and 'R' (Right) adapter on the corresponding side of the stroller.
- Verify that there is no obstruction in the attachment points on the stroller frame.
- Apply firm, even pressure until an audible click is heard.
- Car seat feels unstable or wobbles:
- Confirm that both adapters are fully clicked and securely attached to the stroller frame.
- Ensure your infant car seat model is listed as compatible in the "Compatibility" section of this manual.
- Verify that the car seat is properly aligned and fully engaged with both adapters. An audible click from the car seat itself is often an indicator of proper attachment.
- If the issue persists, discontinue use and contact UPPAbaby customer support.
- Difficulty removing car seat from adapters:
- Ensure the car seat's release mechanism is fully activated. Refer to your car seat's instruction manual for its specific release procedure.
- Lift the car seat straight up without twisting or tilting.
