• Please ensure that your child correctly wears the fitted and adjusted
safety harness at all times with all  straps secured.
• Never leave the harness buckled when not fitted to the child in the stroller.
The harness can form loops which may cause a strangulation hazard.
TIP:Your canopy visor may need a little TLC after shipping. To get it
looking nice and new again simply apply heat from a clothes steamer
or hair dryer to remove any wrinkles (just be careful to scorch the
fabric). This is not covered under warranty.
Finally, insert the belly bar into
the belly bar sockets on the seat
frame. Always give the bar a firm
tug to ensure its secure.
Note: To remove from one side
or both, press the button on the
side you want to release, and
pull the belly bar out.
To attach the canopy, first
secure it to the frame with
the zip starting from the left
side (when facing the seat).
Next attach the plastic
canopy connectors onto the
sides of the frame (TIP: attach
from top to bottom). You’ll
notice a round guide on each
side, the connectors should
attach over these guides.

Using your ROVER
Correct use:
Any vehicle with moving parts needs to be used and treated with care and
given regular maintenance to remain safe and in good condition. Please be
gentle, don’t overload it, avoid excessive o-road use and be sure to follow the
maintenance instructions on page 6 to keep your ROVER looking and feeling
newer for longer!

with more weight may cause the
basket to break.
Adjusting the footrest:

simultaneously and adjust the
footrest to the desired position.

Folding the Stroller
Recommended as the safest option:
Before folding, ensure that the front wheels are unlocked.
Remove the stroller seat by lifting the release levers on either
side.
Push the black button on the frame release lever and then pull
both black release levers up the frame.
Push down on the handlebar to close it.
Then you can lift the frame up using the carry bar and the front
wheels will close inwards.
The frame has an automatic lock that ensures that it stays
closed while you are carrying or storing the pram. To ensure
that it has engaged, always push the front section of the frame
closed as far as you can and give it a pull to ensure you cannot
release it.
• Always take care when folding the frame and lift the frame from the carry bar.
• Always remove the car capsule, bassinet or seat prior to folding and carry the
frame and seat/bassinet separately. This is the safest carry method for your back.


• Do not carry bags from the handlebar other than the one provided by Babybee.
• Do not use parts or accessories that are not approved for use with the Babybee
ROVER range. Doing so may be unsafe and may also void your warranty.
(e.g. toddler boards, bag hooks, rain covers, etc).
• Never leave covers on or over the pram indoors, in very hot weather or near a heat
source. Always supervise and monitor your child regularly whilst the pram is covered.
Free Accessories
Rain Cover (compatible
with seat & bassinet)
Pull the rain cover and elastic over the top of the
canopy and then over the end of the bassinet. The
elastic will prevent the rain cover from flying away
in the wind. Please ensure the air vents are located
on either side so that air can pass through.
Note: The cover will be looser on the bassinet due to
its shorter frame and canopy.
UV / Mosquito / Sleep Cover
Fully extend the canopy. Attach the press studs
onto the sides of the canopy connectors, then hook
the cover over the base of the seat and top of the
canopy.
Note: Compatible with seat only, covering your
bassinet with any fabric could result in overheating
or reduced oxygen.
Seat Liner
Attach the seat liner by threading the harness straps
from the seat through the corresponding slot.
Handlebar bag
Secure the straps with the press studs over the
handlebar. Be careful carrying liquids in the
handlebar bag. Hot liquids may burn you or your child.

Tips for maintaining
your pram.
Excessive wear can reduce the eectiveness and
safety of your pram. To keep your ROVER in good
working condition and ensure that it lasts as long as
possible will require regular maintenance and you will
need to service your pram every 6 months.
Regular maintenance
should include:
Inspecting the locking devices, levers,
joints, buttons, brakes, wheels, safety
harness and fixtures to ensure they are
secure, moving freely and in fully
working order.
If any parts of the pram 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: Only use lubricant
labeled ‘Silicone Lubricant’, other
lubricants can deteriorate the plastic
parts of your pram and also attract dirt
and dust e.g. DO NOT use standard
WD). We recommend WD-
SPECIALIST Silicon Lubricant or SCA
Silicone Spray available from
Supercheap Auto, Bunnings and
most hardware stores.
Preventing rust
& mould
After exposure to wet or damp
conditions (especially trips to the
beach, snow or in the rain), leave
the pram fully open in a warm, well
ventilated environment to prevent rust
and mould. You may need to dry with
a soft, lint free cloth. Left damp it will
encourage mildew, mould or rust to
form, damaging the pram.
Correct Use
The ROVER has been designed for urban
living and weekend adventures which
means it’s ideal for walking on sealed
footpaths, in shopping centres, cafes
and down at your local park. Use of
the ROVER o-road or over uneven
terrain will clearly place more stress
on the frame and wheels and cause it
to wear out faster. For this reason we
recommend “weekend adventures”
and not regular o-road use.
Ensure children are not present when applying silicon 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.
POISONOUS, TOXIC SUBSTANCE. USE WITH CARE.


Storage
• Do not leave the pram in direct
sunlight for prolonged periods of
time to avoid colour fade.
• Do not leave in your car on days
of extreme heat or near any heat
source or fire.
• Do not store the stroller with
heavy items on top of it.
• Store the pram in a dry, well-
ventilated and safe place.
Spare Parts
• The brakes and wheels are
subject to normal wear and should
be replaced if necessary.
• Spare parts are available for
purchase on the Spare Parts
page of our website:
babybeeprams.com.au
If the part you require is not listed
please email us for a quote.
Cleaning Instructions
For a comprehensive deep cleaning
guide (we recommended you do this
every 6 months) please refer to our
website.
• Use a soft brush to brush down
the pram and remove any dirt
or dust making sure you get into
all the nooks and crannies (i.e
inside the wheel hubs, inside the
joints from all folding parts etc). You
could also give it a good vacuum.
• At the first sign of rust, remove
with steel wool.
• All plastic, fabric and metal parts
of the pram may be sponged
clean with a soft cloth in warm
water and a mild detergent.
• Wipe dry with a soft towel or cloth
and allow all parts to dry thoroughly
before using.
• The seat liner and bassinet
mattress liner are machine washable
on a delicate setting (maximum
water temperature of °C) however
handwashing will keep them looking
newer for longer.
Do not
. Do not immerse the seat or canopy
in water, sponge clean only.
. Do not clean with abrasive materials
or using ammonia, bleach, solvents,
caustic or spirit-based cleaners.
. Do not press or iron.
. Do not rub or wring fabric.
. Do not tumble dry.
. Do not dry clean.
Failing to adhere to these maintenance
and cleaning instructions could
damage or eect the safety of your
pram and may void your warranty.
• Do not clean your pram with
children around.
• Do not dismantle or alter
any part of the folding
mechanisms, frame, brake
axel or wheels for cleaning or
any other reason.
• Do not use if any part is broken,
torn or missing. Replacement
