In the Dark

your child, we recommend that you not use your stroller
at night. However, if you choose to, please attach reflective
strips to the wheels and the seat. Bicycle lights can also be
mounted on the handle crossbar. These accessories can be
found at most bike stores.

Washing
• You can machine wash your stroller’s seat in cold water with a mild detergent.
To minimize shrinkage, simply reattach the seat to the frame to dry.
(Please do not put the seat in the dryer!)
• Be sure to remove the frame from the back of the
seat before washing.
Wheel Care
• The wheels can be cleaned using a damp cloth.
They will need to be dried completely with a soft towel or cloth.
Storing
• Sunshine can fade seat fabric and dry out tires, so storing your stroller indoors will
prolong its good looks. However, if you do store it outside, using a tarp will help protect
against weather wear.
