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 board from the back of the seat
before washing.
• You may clean the stroller frame using a soft, dry cloth, and an
occasional spray of household wax will maintain its healthy glow.
Wheel Care
• Moisture – especially from the beach – can rust the wheel bearing case.
Spraying regularly with a silicone lubricant will keep your wheels looking healthy.
• Also, if you jog massive amounts of miles, your stroller will benefit from
a yearly visit to the bike shop for wheel alignment. Refer to the number
on the tire wall for the optimum pressure for your tires.
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 protect against weather wear.
Stroller Care
Steering
• Steering your stroller is simple: it’s balanced to
turn with just a light touch on the handlebar.
For tighter turns, push down on the handlebar
and raise the front wheel to steer.
Wrist Strap
• Make sure wrist strap is around your wrist whenever
your baby is in the stroller. The Baby Jogger is lightweight
and ready to roll – with or without you – and the wrist strap
helps you gain control over your stroller.
In the Dark
• Since we are concerned about the safety of you and your
baby, we recommend that you not use your stroller at
night. However, if you choose to, please attach
reflective strips to the wheel spokes and the seat.
Bicycle lights can also be mounted on the handlebar.
