POISONOUS, TOXIC SUBSTANCE. USE WITH CARE.
• ENSURE CHILDREN ARE NOT PRESENT WHEN APPLYING SILICONE
LUBRICANT OR ALLOWING IT TO DRY.
• ALWAYS SPRAY OUTSIDE OR IN A WELL VENTILATED AREA.
• ENSURE YOU USE MINIMAL PRODUCT AND WIPE AWAY EXCESS
SOLUTION BEFORE USE.
Correct storage
• Do not leave the stroller in direct sunlight for prolonged periods of time
to avoid colour fade.
• Do not leave DUO3 in your car on hot days or near any heat source or fire.
• Do not store the stroller with heavy items on top of it.
• Store the stroller in a dry, well-ventilated and safe place.
Regular maintenance should include:
• Inspecting the locking devices, levers, joints, buttons, brakes, wheels,
safety harness & fixtures to ensure they are secure, moving freely and
in full working order.
• If any parts of the stroller have become sti, dicult to operate or begin
to squeak, first ensure that dirt is not the cause. Then try a light application
of a sprayable silicone lubricant, ensuring that it penetrates between the
components. Note: Silicone lubricant is preferable.
Excessive wear can reduce the eectiveness and safety of your stroller. To
keep your stroller in good working condition and ensure that it lasts as long as
possible will require regular maintenance.
