Safety Precautions
- Always ensure your pet is securely fastened inside the basket using the integrated safety leashes.
- Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 25 kg.
- Engage the parking brake when the stroller is stationary.
- Do not leave your pet unattended in the stroller.
- Avoid using the stroller on steep inclines or uneven terrain that could compromise stability.
- Regularly inspect all parts for wear and tear, especially wheels and locking mechanisms.
Setup and Assembly
Follow these steps to assemble your Zenzee Dog Stroller:
- Unfold the Frame: Place the folded frame on a flat surface. Release any locking mechanisms and carefully unfold the frame until it clicks into place, indicating it is fully extended.
- Attach the Wheels: Ensure all wheels are securely attached. The front wheels are 360° swiveling and can be locked for stability on rougher surfaces.
- Install the Pet Basket: Align the pet basket with the frame's attachment points. Secure the basket using the quick-release fasteners located at the front and rear. Ensure both fasteners are fully engaged for safety.
- Attach Accessories: If included, attach the cup holder to the handle as desired.

Operating Instructions
Using the Stroller
- Placing Your Pet: Gently place your pet inside the basket. Use the two integrated safety leashes to secure your pet's harness or collar, preventing them from jumping out.
- Maneuvering: The 360° swiveling front wheels provide excellent maneuverability. For straight paths or rougher terrain, you can lock the front wheels for increased stability.
- Braking: To stop the stroller, press down on the foot-operated parking brake located at the rear wheels until it engages. To release, lift the brake lever.

Detachable Basket Functionality
The pet basket can be easily detached from the frame for versatile use:
- As a Carrier: Once detached, the basket can be used as a standalone pet carrier, ideal for short trips or when you need to carry your pet without the full stroller frame.
- Reattaching: To reattach, align the basket with the frame and engage the quick-release fasteners until they click securely into place.

Folding and Storage
The stroller features a quick one-hand folding mechanism for easy storage and transport:
- Detach Basket (Optional): For the most compact fold, detach the pet basket from the frame.
- Engage Folding Mechanism: Locate the folding release mechanism (often near the handle) and activate it.
- Fold the Frame: Gently push the handle downwards, allowing the frame to collapse into its compact folded position. Ensure all parts are securely folded.
Store the folded stroller in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
Maintenance
Regular maintenance will extend the life of your Zenzee Dog Stroller:
- Cleaning:
- Fabric: Wipe fabric surfaces with a damp cloth and mild soap. Do not use harsh chemicals. Allow to air dry completely.
- Frame: Clean the aluminum frame with a soft, damp cloth. Dry thoroughly to prevent corrosion.
- Wheels: Periodically check the wheels for debris and clean them. The rubber wheels are equipped with ball bearings for smooth operation; ensure they remain free of dirt and grit.
- Moving Parts: Lubricate moving parts and joints with a silicone-based spray if they become stiff.
- Storage: Store the stroller in a clean, dry environment to prevent damage from moisture or extreme temperatures.
