To convert stroller to a frame carrier

WARNING: Please request the help of

another adult to help you put the frame carrier
on.

1. With rear wheels locked, release the frame

carrier waist strap cover located between the
front legs.

2. Tilt the stroller back slightly, and slide the

booties onto the front wheels. This will prevent
your clothes being soiled by the wheels.

3. Release the waist buckle and sternum (chest)

buckle (Picture M).

4. To close the stroller, step behind the stroller,

pull back on the side latches until they clear
the locking pegs, handle will automatically fold
down when stroller/carrier is lifted off the
ground.

5. With the help of another adult to steady the

child in the seat, stand in front of the carrier.
Place one arm through the shoulder strap and
lift carrier onto your shoulder/back. You will
find this much easier if the other adult also
assists you with holding the other shoulder
strap and guiding it over your other shoulder.

6. Once both shoulder straps are on, pull down

on the shoulder strap ends to tighten. This will
position the child higher onto your shoulders
(Picture N).

sliding them up or down. Clasp the sternum
buckle. Pull the ends of the sternum straps to
tighten (Picture N).

8. Buckle the waist strap and pull end of the
