However, it is advisable to look for the most suitable one
according to the ground on which you are travelling, the
weight of the child and the height of the handle.
fig. 16 When using with the child in the
carrycot on fairly even ground, place the
front suspension on
HARD and the rear on
SOFT ; this increases the smoothness of the
wheels, guaranteeing more comfort for the
child.

press the lever ( A12 ) on the front wheel assembly. The arrow
on the lever will show H .
fig. 18 To adjust the rear suspension to SOFT , firmly lower
the lever ( A13 ). S will be visible on the same.
fig. 19 When using with the child in a
stroller on uneven ground, adjust the front
suspension to
SOFT and the rear to HARD ;
this reduces the vibrations transmitted by
the roughness of the ground, both to the
child and to the handle of the chassis.
fig. 20 To adjust the front suspension to SOFT , move the
lever ( A12 ) on the front wheel assembly to the horizontal
position. The arrow on the lever will show S .
fig. 21 To adjust the rear suspension to HARD , firmly lift
the lever ( A13 ). H will be visible on the same.
