Care and Maintenance…
• A pushchair has many moving parts, and surfaces which move against each
other, over time these surfaces can become dry or even attract dirt or dust. By
simply cleaning your pushchair chassis on a regular basis and lightly spraying
the moving parts with a silicon spray your pushchair will fold and push better for
longer.
• Different environments can present different challenges to your pushchair, a
visit to the beach can increase salt corrosion to parts, but so too can a wet or
snowy day, so again by cleaning and lubricating your pushchair you can help
fight the effects of the environment on your pushchair.
• When a pushchair is in use, with all its locking mechanisms in place, its a solid
rigid item designed for carrying your child. However, when folded its the exact
opposite, impacts can knock it out of alignment, or putting things on top of it
could twist it out of shape, so we recommend taking a little more care with it
when folded for storage.
• Hanging bags on the handles of the pushchair not only creates a risk of tipping,
but it can also cause excessive and uneven wear, as weight here causes the
chassis to twist as handles are not designed to be a load bearing part.
• Just as with extra weight in the basket, or bags on handles, the use of a buggy-
board reduces the life of your product by increasing the weight on the product,
but by also putting weight and strain onto parts in a direction they were not
designed to experience. Consequently use of these products invalidates the
warranty on pushchairs.
• Fabric care: All the Mamas & Papas pushchairs fabrics are shower resistant.
Should your pushchair become wet, do not fold the hood or apron when you
take it inside. Always allow the fabrics to dry naturally away from strong heat
sources such as fires, radiators and out of direct sunlight.
• Whilst fabrics are carefully selected and tested, washing, wear and normal
exposure to bright sunlight may cause their colour to change.
• The exposed edges of fabrics are often the first to wear and fray, remember
this when storing or transporting your pushchair and accessories.
• Wipe all plastic/metal parts clean with a damp cloth using mild soap, dry
thoroughly. Light soiling of the seat pad can be removed with a damp cloth and
a mild soap.
