Front Wheels

1. Release the fold latch by pulling it outward (see Fig. 1a).
2. Unfold stroller frame by pulling backward on the stroller handle (see Fig. 1b).
3. To attach front wheels: Lean the stroller back so it rests on the handle with front and rear legs pointing upward. Position front wheels over front leg tubes, aligning the hole in the housing with the legs. Push down firmly until wheels lock securely into place (see Fig. 1c). Pull on the wheel assembly to ensure it is securely attached.

Rear Wheels

1. Position the axle assembly over the rear leg tubes with brake pedals facing the back. Push down with equal pressure on both sides until they lock into place (see Fig. 2).
2. NOTE: NEVER use the stroller if wheels do not lock into place.

Child Tray

The child's tray is not a restraint device: always secure your child with the seat harness. DO NOT lift the stroller by the child's tray. Do not place hot liquids or more than 3 pounds (1.36 kg) in the child tray.

1. To attach the child tray: Push the tray downward into the connectors (see Fig. 3a). Check that the tray is securely latched.
2. To access the child seat: Push one release and lift the tray simultaneously (see Fig. 3b).
3. To remove the child tray: Push to release both ends and lift up the tray simultaneously (see Fig. 3c).

Parent Tray

Do not place hot liquids or more than 3 pounds in the parent tray. Serious burns or unstable conditions could result.

2. NOTE: Check to make sure the parent tray is secure before using.

Multi-Position Handle

Canopy

2. To open the canopy: Push forward on the front edge of the canopy while holding the rear in place (see Fig. 6b).

4. To remove the canopy: Press the release tab on the inside of the stroller frame (see Fig. 6c). Pull the canopy out (see Fig. 6d). Repeat for the other side.

Basket

1. Rear basket tube needs to be installed prior to use. Insert the female end of the rear basket tube into the male ends on the basket frame until it locks into place (see Fig. 7).

Brakes

Always set brakes when the stroller is not being pushed to prevent it from rolling away. NEVER leave unattended on a hill or incline.

1. To engage brakes: Apply light downward pressure to the brake lever on each rear wheel. You may need to move the stroller slightly forward or backward to align the brake teeth with the wheel brake cluster (see Fig. 8).
2. NOTE: Check that the stroller will not move and that both brakes are properly applied.
3. To release: Gently lift up on the brake lever (see Fig. 8).

Child Safety and Harness Use

TO SECURE THE CHILD:

Avoid serious injury from falling or sliding out. Always use the safety harness.

STRANGULATION HAZARD: Child can strangle in loose straps. Never leave child in seat when straps are loose or undone.

Harness Adjustment

1. Snap the side of the seat pad onto the inner sides of the frame (see Fig. 9a). Repeat for the other side.
2. The 5-point harness shoulder straps have 3 attachment positions. Select the position that places the shoulder strap level with, or below, the child's shoulder. To adjust harness height, unhook the shoulder strap from the crotch buckle (see Fig. 9b).
3. Feed the shoulder strap through the harness spread slots (accessed from the rear of the seat). Reattach the shoulder strap to the crotch buckle (see Fig. 9c).
4. Place the child in the stroller seat and bring the safety harness around the child's waist and over the shoulders. Place the crotch strap between the child's legs. Insert the male end of each shoulder/waist belt into the buckle on the crotch strap. Tighten the harness to be snug around the child's waist and over the child's shoulders (see Fig. 9d).

Seat Back Position

The upright position should be used only for a child that is at least 6 months old.

Never use the seat in a reclined position unless the enclosure is raised to cover the front opening, as the child may slip into leg openings and strangle.

1. To recline the seat: Press the side tabs on the adjuster and pull downward.
2. To place the seat into the upright position: Hold the strap hoop and push the adjuster upward (see Fig. 11).
3. Always readjust the safety harness when repositioning the seatback.

Infant Car Seat Compatibility

For CS01 EZ-Lift, CS02 EZ-Lift PLUS, and CS03 EZ-Lift PRO Infant Car Seats:

These models must attach to the stroller's front seat module. They require child tray and seat back adjustment to the most reclined position.

Attaching the Car Seat

1. From the rear side of the stroller, engage both car seat support tabs (see Fig. 12a).
2. Align the car seat module to the inner frame connectors. Rest the car seat's lower rear against the angle point of the tray. Latch the module into the stroller frame. Press down firmly until it clicks.
3. ALWAYS ensure the car seat is properly connected and locked by lifting up on the car seat handle (see Fig. 12b).
4. Secure the single short clip over the infant car seat through the belt path on the infant car seat (see Fig. 14c). Ensure the short clip is always tightly fastened.
5. Always secure your child with the car seat harness when using the car seat in the stroller. If your child is already in the car seat, check that the child is secured with the harness.

Removing the Car Seat

1. Set the handle to the carry position (see Fig. 13a).
2. Squeeze the release handle at the top-rear of the car seat and lift away from the stroller (see Fig. 13b).

4. Remove the short clip from the infant car seat (see Fig. 14e).
5. From the rear side of the stroller, disengage both car seat support tabs (see Fig. 14g).
