Safety

DANGER: for children

• Keep small parts, packaging bags and foils away from children. Danger of suffocation!
• The item is not a children’s toy. Keep children away from it or point it out to children.

NOTE:  Property damage

• Do not overload the buggy. Observe the capacity specified in the “Technical data”.
• The buggy is intended for normal roads and pathways. Avoid off-road driving.
• Do not alter or otherwise modify the item.
• Keep the item away from naked flames or other sources of intense heat.

Tips for pet owners

The following tips apply primarily to dog owners, but can also apply to other pets. Try this buggy out for your pet.

• Very important:  Take your time and reward your pet with verbal praise, patting and stroking or a nice treat.
• Set up the buggy in your home and allow your pet plenty of time to sniff it and get used to it. Does your pet behave calmly? Give it plenty of praise and a good treat. Is your pet restless? Take it away from the buggy and reward it. The buggy should still be within sight of your pet.
• If your pet is calm, gently place it in the buggy and give it plenty of vocal praise and reward it. If your pet panics, take it out of the buggy and try again later. Then continue from the last stage where your pet felt comfortable.
• Does your pet sit calmly in the buggy? If yes, go on and start pushing the buggy around your home. Always remember to give your pet plenty of praise in the process.
• When going outside: Stay as close as possible to the front door and don’t forget to attach the short straps to your pet’s harness.
• Is your pet relaxed? With your pet in the buggy, you can go for the first real walk with it, but proceed slowly and don’t make it too long.

Notes on using

General Information

• Do not use the buggy on stairs or escalators and, if necessary have an assistant to help you out with obstacles or high kerbs.
• Always approach kerbs and uneven surfaces attentively and slowly. Otherwise, the buggy could tip over.
• Always secure the buggy with the parking brakes when you leave it standing. Otherwise, there is a risk that the buggy will roll away, become unstable or even turn over. A dog jumping into the buggy with great momentum also creates a risk.
• Always grab the buggy by the metal frame when putting it into a car boot, for example. If necessary, have a second person help you. Do not grab by the hood!
• Never allow small children to push the buggy and ensure they are always supervised by an adult.

Notes on using the buggy

• The top and tray can be removed from the frame.
• The top is strapped to the bottom and the tray is attached with snaps.
• The canopy can be used in three positions: open, half-open and closed.
• The ventilation screen can be completely opened with the zip fastener.
