any squeaking or feel tension, you can take your stroller to a local bike shop for added lubrication.
All repairs should only be carried out by an authorized dealer.
Washing

• Be sure to remove the metal frame from the back of the seat and the raised kicker before washing.
• Do not use solvents, caustic or abrasive cleaning materials.
