Figure 1
NOTE: The 4th position is higher up on the support bar than the other
positions. The best way to raise the seat is by reaching from the inside of
the stroller and pulling the seatback forward. It may be necessary to pull
fabric out of the way of the side plastic pieces to reach the fourth (most
upright) position.
TO RAISE FOOTREST:
Pull up on the bottom part of the footrest.
Figure 2
TO LOWER FOOTREST:
Push both buttons on the sides of the footrest together and lower the bar.

6. TO ADJUST THE KICKSTAND
!
WARNING: IF THE CABLE IS NOT ADJUSTED PROPERLY OR
THE KICKSTAND IS BENT OR BROKEN THE STABILITY OF THE
STROLLER IN THE PARKED POSITION IS DIMINISHED. IN ALL
EVENTS, NO CHILD SHOULD EVER BE LEFT UNATTENDED IN ANY
STROLLER.
Turning the nut connected to the brake cable clockwise reduces the
amount of force required to extend the kickstand. Turning the nut
counter-clockwise increases the tension on the cable and adjusts the
forward lean of the legs. (figure A)
Figure A
The legs of the kickstand must be vertical when the unit is parked in
order to be effective. Adjust the nut to keep legs in vertical position
with the least amount of force required. The cable will require re-
adjusting over time as parts wear.
The cable can also be adjusted in front if necessary by loosening the
nuts, pulling the cable tight and retightening the nuts.
Figure B
There should approximately 1/2" to 1" clearance between the bottom
of the kickstand and the ground. This provides clearance when
stroller is loaded and for activating.
6. OPTIONS FOR USING THE CHILD TRAY
NOTE: Some parents may prefer not to install the child tray on the
stroller as this option may allow easier accessibility to the child.
(figure B & C)
Ex: Diaper changing or feeding. The child tray may be easily
attached and removed by pulling off or snapping on each side to
the frame of the stroller (just below the center lock on the frame and
above the foot rest)
Figure C
7. OPTIONS FOR USING THE SWIVEL WHEEL LOCK
TO LOCK FRONT SWIVEL: Adjust front wheel so that wheel is
straight and lock is forward. Push lock to right. (figure D)
Figure D
TO UNLOCK FRONT SWIVEL: Push lock to left.
NOTE: On rough surfaces, lock the wheel to keep straight. On
smooth surfaces, unlock to allow the wheel to swivel.

Using the Urban
Advantage as a
Travel System
The Urban Advantage may be used as a travel system.
You may use most of the infant car seats on the market with the
stroller as a travel system. We recommend the Graco Snug Ride
and the Britax Companion infant car seats because of the secure
fit with the Urban Advantage. We do not recommend the Evenflo or
Compass infant seats with the Urban Advantage.
We have an extension strap that connects to the waist belt of the
5-point harness. It goes over the top of the infant car seats for
added safety. It is located in the basket area.
To Use an Infant Car Seat with the Urban Advantage, please follow
the instructions below.
Step 1: Begin by releasing the shoulder strap from both sides of
the lap-belt on the 5-point harness.
Step 2: Extend both sides of the lap-belt as far as you can.
Step 3: Simply connect one end of the extension strap to the lap-
belt of the 5-point harness on the Urban Advantage.
Step 4: Set the infant seat in the stroller with the child tray
attached, Your child should be facing you in the car seat with the
bottom front of your infant car seat base resting on the child tray
Step 5: Wrap the extensions strap over the infant seat and connect
to the other side of the lap-belt.
Step 6: Tighten the extension strap as needed.

Safety
DO NOT USE the Urban Advantage™ until you read and
understand these instructions. Your child’s safety depends on you
reading and following these instructions.
!
WARNING: NEVER LEAVE CHILD UNATTENDED. AVOID
SERIOUS INJURY FROM FALLING OR SLIDING OUT. ALWAYS USE
5-POINT HARNESS.
By far, the most common injury reported for carriages and strollers
resulted when a child fell or climbed out of a stroller because the
restraint system was not being used. Please observe this safety
warning at all times and be sure to follow the instructions on how to
properly secure your child in the stroller.
!
WARNING: TO AVOID INJURY, ALWAYS USE THE BRAKE
ACTIVATED KICKSTAND WHEN STROLLER IS PARKED.
Ensure that the combination brake & kickstand is on when loading
and unloading children. We designed the brake-activated kickstand
because we had the unfortunate experience of accidentally
knocking over a similar stroller when it was parked in our kitchen.
The brake is absolutely necessary to use when parked and the
kickstand provides added stability. Please use it whenever the
stroller is parked or you are not holding the handle.
!
WARNING: TO AVOID INJURY, KEEP CHILD AWAY FROM
SPRING ACTIVATED KICKSTAND.
The kickstand is spring activated and the legs spring up under
force. The motion could injury a child if spring mechanism was
activated with a child nearby. Also, a child could pinch or lacerate
their fingers if they got caught between the kickstand leg and the
stroller frame. IT IS NOT A TOY! Please keep child away from the
kickstand at all times.
!
WARNING: THIS IS NOT A JOGGING STROLLER. POWER
WALKING IS OK, BUT DO NO USE this product while running,
jogging, in-line skating or participating in other athletic activities.

FAQ's
At what age can a baby be placed in the Urban Advantage? Is it
safe for infants?
The stroller seat is designed to recline into an almost horizontal
position, and the footrest can be angled up so that a baby can
lie safely in the stroller. The 5-point harness is short enough to fit
around a baby. However, we do not recommend using the stroller
with an infant younger than 6 weeks-old or placing an infant in the
stroller while running, jogging, roller blading, roller-skating, or similar
activities. The main concern is the baby's neck muscles and head
control, and the size and development of the baby. Because each
baby develops differently, you and your doctor should make final
decisions.
How far can the seat back be raised? What type of mechanism is
used to adjust the seat?
The stroller has a four-position reclining seat back, adjusting from
nearly horizontal to almost vertical. It is adjusted with a bar. However,
when using the most vertical position, you may need to re-position
some of the canopy fabric out of the way. A useful alternative
technique for the vertical position is to pull forward on the seat rest
from the inside of the stroller, and lock it into position.
Do you have a car seat that fits in the stroller?
You may use most of the infant car seats on the market with the
stroller as a travel system. We recommend the Graco Snug Ride and
the Britax Companion infant car seats because of the secure fit with
the Urban Advantage. We have an extension strap that connects to
the 5-point harness. It goes over the top of the infant car seats for
added safety. It is located in the basket below the seat.
Do you have a rain cover for the Urban Advantage?
Yes, you can order it on-line if your dealer doesn't have one available.
Can I wash the fabric?
The seat fabric is easy to remove and may be washed on a gentle
cycle.

FAQs

FAQs
Is the Urban Advantage a lightweight or heavyweight stroller?
The Urban Advantage is a medium weight stroller, it weights 27 pounds.
The general range is 22 to 35 pounds. The Urban Advantage has an
iron frame. It is strong and sturdy. We chose a heavier frame for its
durability. In addition, all the amenities on the stroller contribute to the
weight. The child tray and the parent tray each weigh 1 pound, the
basket weighs almost two pounds and the pneumatic tires weigh over a
pound each.
What should I do if I need a part for my Go-Go Babyz product?
Please visit our web site for spare parts or call us at 888.686.2552.
Can I jog with the Urban Advantage Stroller?
The Urban Advantage is not a "jogging" stroller. However, it is perfect
for the fast walker or that long walk in the neighborhood. You can
decide if you like the front wheel locked or unlocked depending upon
where you walk.
Can you attach a ride along to the stroller?
At this time, we do not recommend any ride along accessories for the
Urban Advantage.
What is the child weight limit on the stroller?
The weight limit for a child in the Urban Advantage is 40 lbs.
Why should I register my product?
By registering your product, Go-Go Babyz will automatically notify you
regarding issues related to this product. In other words, this is the only
way we can contact you in the future for any unforeseen product recalls.
This is VERY IMPORTANT for the safety of your child!
We will keep the product name and date of your purchase on file for
referencing your warranty information.

Troubleshooting
My stroller seems to pull and lean to one side.
If your stroller is leaning to one side, please make sure the axle
is completely inserted and “snapped” into each side of the stroller
frame. Make sure the safety pins on both sides of the front wheel are
properly installed in matching holes in the frame.
The brake-bar on the Urban Advantage stroller seems tight. Is
this normal?
Yes, the kickstand comes down and is locked into place when you
step on the brake-bar. This takes some additional force. It is normal
and will take less force after some use. There is an adjusting-screw on
the cable near the brake-bar. Turning the adjusting-screw clockwise
reduces the amount of force required to extend the kickstand. Adjust
the screw for the least amount of tension that still allows the kickstand
legs to remain in the vertical position.
The cable can also be adjusted in the front by loosening the locking
nuts, pulling cable forward and retightening the nuts.
Should the kickstand touch the ground?
No. The kickstand should be about ½ inch above the ground when
assembled correctly. This leaves room for varying weight of children
and eliminated any scraping on the ground when being activated or
deactivated.
My child is very tall for his age, and the top flap bothers him. Can
we remove it?
The flap is a safety precaution for use with infants when the seat back
in the horizontal position. You can simply fold over the flap when the
seat back is in the upper positions. If you are sure the stroller will
not be used with an infant, you can remove it entirely with scissors.
However, be sure you remove only the flap and do not cut the threads
below.

Troubleshooting
I cannot lock my stroller in the collapsed position.
If the hook is at all bent out, it does not stay securely connected and will
pop open. Our suggestion is to push the hook in toward the stroller a
little (it is not difficult to bend the metal). The best way to do that would
be to swivel the hook so it is away from the frame and then push it in.
My stroller arrived and there is no strap for the infant seat?
The strap is included in the diaper basket along with the Operating
Manual and air pump.

Care &
Maintenance
After the first hour of use, the stroller should be checked to ensure
that it was assembled correctly and that all parts and fasteners are
secure. Make sure the front wheel is tight on the fork, the 2 safety
pins on both sides of the front wheel are properly installed in matching
holes of the stroller frame, and the lever is closed tightly. Pull
horizontally on the rear wheels to ensure the locking mechanism is in
place. Check that rear axle is secure. Check that the parent tray and
child tray are secure.
Periodically check for warn parts, loose screws, torn materials,
or loose stitching.
Replace any damaged parts immediately.
Clean metal parts with a damp cloth and wipe dry.
Brush off loose dirt after each use.
Clean vinyl with mild soap and water solution then air dry.
Remove seat cushion to wash on gently cycle.
When using dryer, make sure the setting is set to delicate.
Do not store unit outside exposed to rain or extreme sunlight.
Do not place heavy items on top of stroller when storing it.
