INSTRUCTIONS FOR SAFE USE
3
• WARNING: A CHILD’S SAFETY IS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY.
• NEVER LEAVE YOUR CHILD UNATTENDED AT ANY TIME.
•
Always ensure that your pushchair is fully erect and all locking clips are engaged. (Take particular
c
are if the PVC Raincover is fitted. Check that it is not entangled or preventing the locking
mechanism from functioning correctly).
• Your pushchair is supplied with a five-point safety harness. We recommend that the harness is
worn by your child at all times. Ensure that the harness is correctly adjusted, providing a snug fit
around your child. Adjustments can be made using the buckles on the shoulder, waist and crotch
straps. Please refer to “Using and Adjusting the Safety Harness” on page 12. The pushchair is
supplied with ‘D’ ring harness attachment points. These are located on either side at the base of
the backrest and are for fitting a separate harness conforming to BS 6684 if required.
• Always ensure the brakes are correctly engaged whenever the pushchair is left for any reason,
even if only for a short time on a flat surface. Check the brakes are engaged by rocking the
pushchair backwards and forwards.
• Care should be taken when using any PVC raincover. Regularly check that your baby is
comfortable and not over heating. There are ventilation holes in the sides of the raincover. These
are essential to aid the flow of cool air around your baby. When it is not raining or the pushchair
is indoors always remove the raincover.
• Always ensur
e your child is clear of moving parts before adjusting the position of the backrest,
hood or sun canopy.
• When you change the angle of the backrest, always ensure that the harness is corr
ectly adjusted.
• Always manoeuvre your pushchair up and down kerbs and steps gently. Do not let your pushchair
drop. Carry it up stairs whenever possible.
• Never allow additional children to ride on the pushchair at any time.
• Never overload your pushchair with additional goods.
• Do not hang shopping from the handlebars.
• Do not use any replacement parts or accessories e.g. child seats, raincovers, stand-on platforms
etc, e
xcept those recommended or supplied by Mamas & Papas. The use of non-approved
replacement parts or accessories may damage your pushchair or make it unsafe.
•
Never for
ce your pushchair
.
Adjustments and locks should be fr
ee and easy to operate.
• Do not store your pushchair in a damp place. Always allow the fabric to dry naturally away from
dir
ect heat.
• The basket supplied with your pushchair is designed to hold a maximum of 3kgs. Excessive
weight could damage the basket or impede the safe operation of the pushchair.
• We recommend that you fit a Mamas & Papas Sun Canopy to shade your child from direct
sunlight. We recommend that this is used in conjunction with the appropriate sun protection
cream and clothing.
•
The tyres of the pushchair should be regularly checked and inflated if necessary using the hand
pump supplied, or a suitable foot pump. Do not use high pressure air lines or mechanical pumps
as used in garages to inflate the tyres.
IMPORTANT: Never inflate the tyres above - 28 P.S.I.
