• The Bugaboo Bee is not intended for
children in excess of 17 kg / 37.5 lbs or
105 cm / 41.3 inches. Excessive weight

become unstable if the manufacturer’s
recommended load is exceeded.
• Do not carry more than one child in the
Bugaboo Bee.
• Always use the safety features of your
Bugaboo Bee, including locking devices,
brake, the harness (when child is in the
seat) and the wrist strap attached to the
handlebar (see this userguide for
additional information). Check and
maintain all safety features frequently.
• Avoid serious injury from falling or sliding
out. Always use the harness (see this
userguide for additional information on
use of the harness system).
•For any child unable to maintain an
unaided sitting position the backrest
should only be used in the most
reclined position.

make sure your child is clear from
any moving objects, otherwise they
may be injured.
