6. Maintenance and Care
6.1 Cleaning Instructions

6.2 Wheel Maintenance
The stroller is equipped with never-flat wheels and all-terrain tires, requiring minimal maintenance. Periodically check wheels for debris and ensure they spin freely. Lubricate axles if necessary with a silicone-based lubricant.
6.3 General Care
Store the stroller in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to prevent fabric fading and material degradation. Regularly inspect all parts for wear and tear, loose fasteners, or damaged components. Do not use if any part is damaged.
7. Troubleshooting
- Stroller difficult to fold: Ensure the seat is in the correct position and all accessories are removed. Check for any obstructions in the folding mechanism.
- Wheels not turning smoothly: Inspect wheels for debris (e.g., hair, dirt) and remove. Ensure axles are clean and lubricated.
- Stroller pulls to one side: Check tire pressure (if applicable, though these are never-flat) and ensure wheels are properly aligned and free of obstructions.
- Harness difficult to buckle/unbuckle: Ensure no fabric is caught in the buckle. Clean the buckle if necessary.
