Your 3 year warranty
Whilst we make and test our products to the highest standards of durability there’s
always a small chance of a hiccup! Our promise is to repair, replace or refund a
MyChild product that has an identified manufacturing defect from the date of
purchase for a full 3 years thereafter at no extra cost.
However, you must register within 28 days of the date of purchase to receive the full 3
years guarantee!
To receive your full guarantee you can register your product by:
visiting www.mychild.co.uk/warranty.html and complete the warranty form,
or by telephone on 0161 335 2508.
• This product requires regular maintenance: Inspect the locking devices, brakes,
harness assembly, catches, seat adjustments, joints and fittings to ensure they are
secure and in full working order. Brakes and wheels are subject to wear and should
be replaced if necessary by contacting customer service.
• If any part of your pushchair becomes stiff or difficult to operate, ensure that dirt
is not the cause. Use spray lubricant (silicone based) between the components.
Avoid over-spraying as this may encourage the accumulation of dirt. Regular
lubrication of moving parts will extend the life of your pushchair and make opening
and folding easier.
• The seat unit, plastic and metal parts must be sponged clean with warm water and
mild detergent. Always allow to dry thoroughly before using or storing.
• Do not leave the pushchair in sunlight for prolonged periods as fabrics may fade.
• Never use abrasives, ammonia, bleach or spirit based cleaners.
• Always store your pushchair in a dry place. Allow fabric and raincover to dry
thoroughly before folding and storing.
