WARNING
Always make sure the wheel brakes are engaged when the stroller is not being pushed so that the stroller will not roll away.
Never leave stroller unattended, especially on a hill or incline, as the stroller may tip over or slide.

Securing the Child

• Note that there are three height adjustment positions for the shoulder harness straps. For a younger child, the shoulder harness straps should be positioned through the lower opening. For a taller child, the shoulder straps should be positioned through the center or top openings to ensure a good fit.

• To change the positioning of the shoulder straps, find the ends of each strap behind the seat back. Twist the buckle on the end of each strap sideways and push it out toward the front of the seat back through the slot. To re-assemble into a different slot position, twist the buckle sideways and push it through the slot in the seat back from the front toward the back of the stroller. Release the buckle and make sure each strap is not twisted. Pull each strap toward the front of the stroller to be sure it is secure. Be sure that both shoulder straps are inserted through the slots at the SAME height.

• Insure that both shoulder straps are attached to the waist strap buckles. See Figure 17.
  

• Unlatch the waist/shoulder buckle by squeezing in on both sides of the buckle latch and removing the male ends of each buckle.

• Carefully place the child in the stroller seat with the shoulder straps over their shoulders and chest. Then place the crotch strap between the child’s legs.

• Bring the seat belt around the child’s waist and insert the male ends of the waist/ shoulder buckle into the female buckle. Insure that they snap into place. See Figure 18. Tighten the waist belt to be snug around the child’s waist.
  

• Both the shoulder straps and the waist/crotch straps may be adjusted using the sliding buckles on these straps. See Figure 19.
  
  

WARNING
Avoid serious injury from falling or sliding out.
Always use the seat belt and harness.

Seat back Positioning

The seat back can be adjusted to any position from fully upright to reclining. The fully upright position should only be used for a child that is at least 6 months old.

• To adjust the seat back to a more upright position, release the adjustment lock tab from its position. Then simply pull up on the adjustment strap ring until the seat back is in the desired position. See Figure 21.

Push down on the seat back to be sure it is secure.

Maintenance

All of the fittings, snaps, locks, rivets, and other hardware and plastic parts on the stroller should be inspected periodically to insure that they are secured properly and not damaged or malfunctioning. The seat belts and safety harnesses, as well as all other straps and fabric items and their stitching should also be inspected periodically to insure that they are secured properly and not loose, torn or otherwise damaged. All moving parts, such as wheels, brakes, and hinges should also be checked periodically to insure they are operating properly.

Any missing, broken, or worn components should be replaced immediately, and the stroller should not be used until they are replaced. Only original manufacturer’s components should be used. If needed, please contact Joovy at our toll-free phone number.

Fabric fading may occur if the stroller is left in direct sunlight for long periods of time. When not in use, store the stroller out of direct sun.

Cleaning

The fabric material on this stroller can be cleaned using mild household soap or detergent and warm water on a sponge or clean cloth. Always allow the fabric to completely air dry before using the stroller.

The frame and wheels should always be kept clean and free of dirt and foreign matter, especially after operating the stroller in rain, snow, or other harsh environments. Use a sponge or cloth dampened with warm water and a mild detergent cleaner to clean the wheels after such use.
