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 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. (18.1 kg) or are less than 40” (1 meter) tall, and who’s head rests below the top of the seat back. Use by larger children may damage the stroller, or cause a hazardous unstable condition to exist.

•

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

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

seat, or over the handle.
