• Before placing any child into the stroller or removing them from the stroller, be
certain that the rear wheel brakes are engaged.
• To engage the rear wheel brakes, push down on one of the brake levers located

backwards and forwards.
• To release the brakes, gently lift up either one of the brake levers. See Figure 11.
! WARNING
Always make sure BOTH wheel brakes are engaged when the stroller is
not being pushed so that the stroller will not roll away. Never leave stroller
unattended, especially on a hill or incline, as the stroller may tip over or
slide.

Securing the Child
• Note that there are three height adjustment positions for the shoulder harness
straps. For a younger child, the shoulder harness straps should be positioned
through the lower opening. For a taller child, the shoulder straps should be
positioned through the center or top openings to ensure a good fit.
• Make sure that both shoulder straps are attached to the waist strap buckles. See
Figure 15.
• Unlatch the waist/shoulder buckle by squeezing in on both sides of the buckle
latch and removing the male ends of each buckle.
• Carefully place the child in the stroller seat with the shoulder straps over their
shoulders and chest. Then place the crotch strap between the child’s legs.

shoulder buckle into the female buckle. Make sure that they snap into place. See
Figure 16. Tighten the waist belt to be snug around the child’s waist.
• NOTE that when using the headrest for a younger child, the shoulder straps
may be positioned through the upper set of slots in the headrest. Unbuckle the
shoulder straps from the waist/shoulder buckle and feed these straps through
these slots, ensuring that the straps are not twisted. Buckle the shoulder straps
onto the waist/shoulder buckle to secure them. When using the headrest for
a taller child, the shoulder straps may be positioned through the lower set of
slots.
• Both the shoulder straps and the waist/crotch straps may be adjusted using the
sliding buckles on these straps. See Figure 17.

Maintenance
All of the fittings, snaps, locks, rivets, and other hardware and plastic parts on the
stroller should be inspected periodically to ensure that they are secured properly
and not damaged or malfunctioning. The safety harness, as well as all other
straps and fabric items and their stitching should also be inspected periodically to
ensure that they are secured properly and not loose, torn or otherwise damaged.
All moving parts, such as wheels, brakes, and hinges should also be checked
periodically to ensure they are operating properly.
Any missing, broken, or worn components should be replaced immediately, and
the stroller should not be used until they are replaced. Only original manufacturer’s
components should be used. If needed, please contact Joovy at our toll-free
phone number.
Fabric fading may occur if the stroller is left in direct sunlight for long periods of
time. When not in use, store the stroller out of direct sun.
Cleaning
In normal use, there is no need to remove the seat or headrest from the stroller
frame to clean them. The fabric material can be cleaned using mild household
soap or detergent and warm water on a sponge or clean cloth. Always allow the
fabric to air dry completely before using the stroller.
If the seat or headrest become heavily soiled, these can be removed from the stroller
frame for more extensive cleaning. Remove them by following the instructions in
the “Changing/Removing the Seat and All-Season Pad” section of this manual.
They can then be machine washed using cold water, normal cycle with household
liquid detergent. DO NOT machine dry these components. Always allow them to
air dry completely before re-assembling them to the frame and using the stroller.
Theframeandwheelsshouldalwaysbekeptcleanandfreeofdirtandforeignmatter,
especially after operating the stroller in rain, snow, or other harsh environments.
Use a sponge or cloth dampened with warm water and a mild detergent cleaner to
clean the wheels after such use.
