WARNING!
Safety Information
Failure to follow all warnings and instructions
could result in SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.
Read these instructions carefully before using this product. To
ensure proper use, store this user guide in a convenient place
so it can be consulted often.
• Never leave child unattended.
• Avoid serious injury from falling or sliding out. Always use seat
harness.
• Avoid finger entrapment or injury. Always ensure any child
occupants or bystanders are away from the stroller while folding
or unfolding.
• Do not use stroller with a child taller than 44 inches (112 cm).
• Do not use stroller with a child who weighs more than 65 lbs (29.5
kg). Exceeding this limit may cause stroller to become unstable.
• Do not overload the cargo basket. Maximum weight is 10 lbs (4.5
kg). Overloading the basket may cause the stroller to become
unstable and tip over.
• Do not overload cup holder. Maximum weight for cup holder is 1 lb
(0.5 kg). Overloading may cause the stroller to become unstable
and tip over.
• Do not attach parcels or bags to the handlebar or frame of stroller
except those recommended by BOB Gear by Britax, as stroller can
become unstable and tip over.
• Always make certain that the stroller is fully open and locked
before use.
• Assembly of this stroller must be performed by an adult.
• Do not allow children to climb on or play with the stroller.
• FALL HAZARD from tip over - Before running, jogging, or walking
fast, LOCK the front wheel from swiveling.
• Do not park on inclines. The parking brake is intended to park the
stroller on flat surfaces only. Parking on inclines may result in tip
over or runaway stroller.
• The parking brake is not designed as a stopping brake. The
parking brake should not be used to slow or stop the stroller
because doing so could cause the stroller to stop abruptly,
resulting in loss of control.
• Always set the parking brake when stroller is not moving. Never
load or unload the stroller without the parking brake set.

3
• Never use with low tire pressure or deflated tires as this could
result in loss of control. Inflating tires above the maximum inflation
pressure embossed on the tire can damage the rim and⁄or tire,
resulting in loss of control and injury.
• Use extreme caution when using stroller on uneven and⁄
or unpaved, wet, or slick surfaces, as these conditions create
additional hazards and can lead to a loss of stability, resulting in
serious injury.
• Do not use stroller on stairs, escalators, moving vehicles, or steep
inclines. Stroller can tip over.
• Do not wear roller skates or inline skates while pushing stroller.
• Do not run or jog when using infant car seat adapter with infant
car seat.
• Always jog with the stroller seat in the fully upright position.
Jogging with the seat in reclined positions may result in a loss of
stability.
• When seat is fully reclined, backward tip-over is more likely, and
may result in injury to stroller occupant.
• Always use wrist strap to prevent being separated from stroller.
• Do not modify the stroller or any labels. Doing so voids the
warranty and could lead to a dangerous condition.
• Failure to regularly inspect this product and its components to
make sure they are in good condition and good working order can
result in injury, Discontinue use of stroller if damaged or any parts
are missing.
• All infant car seats MUST be installed rear facing.
• Always remove the infant car seat receivers when not in use.
Failure to do so may result in injury. (Sold separately)
NOTES
• Before and during use, always make sure the child’s hands and
feet are away from wheels.
• Never pull stroller backward up stairs. Doing so could damage the
suspension system, leading to frame failure.
• Protect stroller when transporting or shipping to prevent damage
to stroller and stroller components. Check closely for damage after
transporting or shipping.
• Discontinue using stroller if damaged or if any parts are missing.
• It is best to store your stroller indoors when it is not in use.
Extended exposure to rain or the sun’s ultraviolet rays can fade
and damage the fabric, tires, and plastic parts.
• Do not fold the stroller when wet or damp. Always make sure that
the stroller is dry before storing.

Arbitration Agreement
MANDATORY ARBITRATION
& CLASS ACTION
WAIVER (“ARBITRATION
AGREEMENT”)
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION
CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT AFFECTS
YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, REQUIRES
YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES, AND
LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU
CAN SEEK RELIEF.
Arbitration is a process in which
persons with a dispute waive their
rights to file a lawsuit and proceed
in court and to have a jury trial to
resolve their disputes and, instead,
agree to submit their disputes to a
neutral third person (an “arbitrator”)
for a decision. Each party to the
dispute has an opportunity to present
some evidence to the arbitrator.
Pre-arbitration discovery may be
limited. Arbitration proceedings are
private and less formal than court
trials. The arbitrator will issue a
final and binding decision resolving
the dispute, which may be enforced
as a court judgment. A court rarely
overturns an arbitrator’s decision.
YOU AND BRITAX AGREE THAT ANY
DISPUTE BETWEEN US, WHETHER
BASED IN CONTRACT, TORT,
STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, SHALL BE
RESOLVED IN BINDING INDIVIDUAL
ARBITRATION. For purposes of this
Arbitration Agreement, the word
“dispute” and “disputes” are given
the broadest possible meaning and
include, without limitation, all claims,
disputes, and/or controversies
arising out of or relating in any way
to the relationship between you and
Britax (including disputes related
to the marketing or sale of Britax
products), any provisions in this User
Guide or this Arbitration Agreement
(including the interpretation and
scope of this Arbitration Agreement
and the arbitrability of any dispute),
and/or your purchase or use of any
products designed, manufactured,
distributed, marketed, or sold by
Britax. The Federal Arbitration Act
(“FAA”) and federal arbitration law
apply to this Arbitration Agreement.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you
and Britax each agree that you and
Britax shall retain the rights to bring
an individual suit in small claims
court for disputes within the scope
of such court’s jurisdiction and/or to
bring an individual suit in court to
enjoin infringement or other misuse
of intellectual property rights. In no
way shall the foregoing sentence
allow for an action to be brought on
a class or collective basis.
