5. Operating Instructions
5.1. Adjusting the Handlebar Height
To adjust the handlebar height (from 50 cm to 82 cm), locate the adjustment buttons or levers on the sides of the handle. Press these buttons and simultaneously raise or lower the handle to the desired height. Release the buttons to lock the handle in place. Ensure it is securely locked before use.
5.2. Pivoting the Handlebar
The handlebar can be pivoted to allow pushing the stroller from either side. Locate the pivot mechanism near the base of the handlebar. Engage the release mechanism, rotate the handle to the opposite side, and ensure it locks securely into position.
5.3. Adjusting and Reversing the Seats
The two sport seats offer multiple configurations:
- Reclining the Seats: To adjust the seat backrest to a lying position, locate the recline mechanism (usually a lever or strap) on the back of each seat. Adjust to the desired angle and ensure it is locked.
- Changing Seat Direction: To reverse a seat (e.g., from forward-facing to rear-facing or face-to-face), first unlatch the seat from the frame. Carefully lift the seat, rotate it to the desired orientation, and re-attach it to the frame until it clicks securely into place. Repeat for the second seat if necessary.

5.4. Using the Swivel Wheels
The front wheels are designed to swivel for enhanced maneuverability. For straight-line pushing, the swivel function can typically be locked by engaging a lever near each front wheel. Unlock for easier turning.
5.5. Folding the Stroller for Storage
To fold the stroller for compact storage or transport:
- Remove any dolls or accessories from the storage net.
- If possible, remove the seats from the frame for a more compact fold, or ensure they are in their most compact position.
- Locate the folding mechanisms (usually levers or buttons on the frame). Engage these mechanisms and carefully fold the frame until it is flat.
- Secure any automatic locking clips to keep the stroller folded.
6. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe plastic and metal parts with a damp cloth and mild soap. Fabric parts (polyester) can be spot cleaned. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
- Storage: Store the stroller in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures to prevent material degradation.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws, bolts, and locking mechanisms to ensure they are tight and functioning correctly.
- Lubrication: If wheels or folding mechanisms become stiff, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant (avoid oil-based lubricants that can attract dirt).
