IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

How to Keep Your Child Safe While Using this Stroller

• Adult assembly required.
• Never leave your child unattended while in stroller. Accidents can happen quickly while your back is turned. You must always keep your child in view while your child is in the stroller, even when sleeping. Do not use this product as a bed. Your child may become tangled in straps or pads and suffocate.
• Always use restraint system to keep child from standing up or falling out of the stroller.
• Always lock the stroller open before allowing your child in or near the stroller. This prevents injuries caused by stroller collapsing.
• Only use this stroller with children who each weigh less than 40 lbs. (18.14 kg) and are no more than 40 inches (1 meter) tall. Use by larger children may damage the stroller, or cause a hazardous unstable condition to exist.
• Always set the wheel brakes when stroller is not moving, especially on an incline. This prevents the stroller from rolling away.
• Always place the child in the front seat before placing another in the back seat. When removing children, always remove the child in the back seat first before removing the child in the front. Failure to do so may cause the stroller to become unstable and tip.

What to Avoid While Using this Stroller
