Operating Instructions
The INFANS Mercedes Benz Push Car offers three modes of use to grow with your child.
1. Baby Push Car Mode (with Parent Handle and optional Canopy/Guardrail)
This mode is ideal for younger toddlers (18-24 months) who need full parental assistance and protection. It includes variations with or without the canopy and safety guardrail.
- Ensure the push handle is attached. For maximum safety, attach the safety guardrail and extend the footrest.
- Place your child securely in the seat, ensuring the safety guardrail is closed (if used).
- Use the parent control handle to steer and push the car. The parent handle has priority over the child's steering wheel for safety.
- If desired, attach and adjust the 360° rotatable canopy to shield your child from direct sunlight.

2. Walking Car Mode
As your child grows (approx. 25-36 months) and gains more confidence, the canopy and safety guardrail can be removed, while the parent handle remains for assistance.
- Remove the canopy and safety guardrail. The push handle can remain attached.
- Your child can begin to use their feet to propel the car while still benefiting from the parent's steering assistance.
- This mode helps develop leg muscle strength and balance.
3. Sliding Ride-on Car Mode (Foot-to-Floor)
For older toddlers (approx. 37-60 months) who are ready for independent play.
- Remove the push handle, safety guardrail, and canopy.
- Retract the footrest.
- Your child can now use their feet to push off the ground and steer the car independently.
- The steering wheel features a horn and built-in music for interactive play.

- Horn and Music: Press the buttons on the steering wheel for horn sounds and built-in music (note: some models may have sound effects rather than extensive music).
- Underneath Storage: Lift the seat to access a convenient storage compartment for small toys or snacks.

Maintenance and Care
- Cleaning: Wipe the car body with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Storage: Store the push car in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight when not in use to prevent material degradation.

- Moving Parts: Ensure all moving parts, such as the steering mechanism and retractable footrest, operate smoothly.
