Avoid serious injury from falling or sliding out. Always use Restraint
System. Your child's safety depends on you. Proper stroller use cannot be
assured unless you follow these instructions. DO NOT USE STROLLER
UNTIL YOU READ AND UNDERSTAND THESE INSTRUCTIONS.

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. Do not use product without full 5 point
harness restraint. Removing the shoulder straps will not
adequately restrain child.

• 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.

• 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 weigh less than 40 lbs. (18.14
kg) or are less than 40” (1 meter) tall, per seat.

This stroller can hold a
maximum of 80 lbs (36.28 kg.) dual occupancy, and use by larger
children may cause it to tip.

• Use this stroller in the reclined position until child can sit up
unassisted.

• Always set the wheel brakes when stroller is not moving, especially
on an incline. This prevents the stroller from rolling away.

• Always fasten the canopy onto the seat back when using the
stroller in the reclined position.

What to Avoid While Using this Stroller

• Always balance the weight of the stroller evenly. To prevent the
stroller from becoming unstable or tipping:

• Do not place parcels or accessory items on the stroller canopy,

seat, or over the handle.

• Do not put more than 10 lbs. (4.54 kg) in the basket.

• THIS IS NOT AN EXERCISE STROLLER! Do not use this product
while running, jogging, in-line skating or participating in other
athletic activities.

• DO NOT put child in basket.
