MAINTENANCE
Lubricate the moving parts only if necessary, with the light
application of a silicone based lubricant. Regularly check the
condition of the wheels and, keep them clean of dust and sand.
To avoid friction that may prevent the correct operation of the
stroller, ensure that all the movable plastic parts placed
along the metal frame are clean of dust, dirt or sand. Keep the
stroller in a dry place.
OPENING INSTRUCTIONS
1. Release the closure latch (diag. 1)
2. Open the stroller (diag. 2).
3. Press the safety lock down with your foot as shown in the
drawing (diag 3 A.) WARNING: pushing down the bar which
connects the two rear wheels (see ‘components’) does not
guarantee that the stroller is open correctly (diag. 3 B and 3
C).
4. Fit the sun hood on the stroller, by turning it towards the
front (diag. 4A) and use the Velcro fasteners on the edges to
secure it to the frame (diag. 4 B)
WARNING: ensure that the sun hood is securely fitted on the
relative support (diag. 4 C) by pressing it downwards until you
hear it click into place.
RECLINING THE BACKREST
5. The backrest can be reclined to 2 different positions. After
releasing the clips on the backrest (diag. 5 A), open the zips on
either side of the seat (diag. 5 B).
WARNING: this adjustment is more difficult when the child is
seated in the stroller. We recommend you adjust the backrest
before placing your child in the seat.
BRAKES
6. To apply the brakes, press the levers on the rear wheels
downwards (diagram 6). WARNING: the brakes are connected
and are applied together.
When the brake levers are up, the wheel brake is off.
THE BRAKES MAY NOT FUNCTION AT THEIR OPTIMUM LEVEL
ON STEEP SLOPES.
WARNING: Always apply the brakes whenever the stroller is
stationary. Never leave the stroller on a sloping surface with a
child inside, even with the parking brake ON.
WARNING: after applying the brake lever, check that the
brakes are locked in place on both rear wheels.
FRONT SWIVEL WHEELS
The stroller has front swivel wheels.
7. To unlock the swivel wheels, lower the lever fitted between
the two wheels (diag. 7). Use the swivel wheels on smooth
surfaces. To lock the wheels, pull the lever in an upward
direction.
WARNING: the swivel wheels make the stroller easier to
manoeuvre; it is however recommended to use the wheels in a
locked position on uneven ground to guarantee better stability
(on gravel, unpaved roads etc.)
WARNING: Both wheels must be locked or unlocked at the
same time.
SAFETY HARNESS
8. All strollers are fitted with a 5 point safety harness (diag. 8).
Adjust the shoulder straps so they fit over the child’s shoulders.
Always use the safety harness together with the crotch strap.
Always check that the safety harness is fitted correctly.
WARNING: the safety harness must always be fastened to
guarantee complete safety for your child.
For extra safety, the stroller is fitted with D rings, which can be
used to fit a separate safety harness, compliant with BS 6684
Standards. The rings are fitted on the right and left side of the
stroller seat, as seen in points A and B.
CLOSING THE STROLLER
WARNING: when closing the stroller, ensure that your child
and all other children are at a safe distance. Ensure that during
these operations the moving parts of the stroller do not come
into contact with your child.

lock system 1 (see ‘components’) by pulling it towards you in
a downward direction (diag. 9A – 1); then push it upwards to
unlock the main locking system (diag. 9 A – 2).

until it is completely closed (diag. 10).
11. When it is closed, the hook on the side automatically locks
the stroller (diag. 11 A) to prevent it from accidentally opening.

simply stood up, rested against a vertical surface, on its own
(diag. 11 B).
