9. Configuration and use –stroller frame
Frame folding mechanism
The frame folding mechanism is located inside the frame and on the frame
in two places in its right part and in three places in its left part. Describing
these places from above, from the side of the handle to push the stroller,
these are:
•right and left bend - an element that allows folding the upper
frame to reduce its dimensions
•mechanism of folding the frame with a lock
Unfolding the stroller frame. Transport lock.
To unfold (open) the stroller frame: lay the
stroller frame horizontally on the ground and
pull off the transport lock (Fig. 9.2.1). Then
gently pull the backrest to the upright position
(Fig. 9.2.2.). To set the stroller, pull the handle
carefully by lifting it slightly up while bringing
the stroller to the desired position until the
frame folding lock engages. The frame of the
stroller will not unfold properly until the frame
folding mechanism has been properly closed.
This is evidenced by the clear "click" sound
coming from the well-closed mechanism of
folding the frame
Folding the frame
To fold (close) the stroller frame: push the small,
red button (Fig 9.3.1) and release the frame folding
mechanism lock by pulling it up and pull both frame
folding handles up (Fig 9.3.2) until the frame is
released. Then fold the stroller frame folding it
forward in the direction of the front wheels. Make
sure that the push handle and footrest are in a non-
colliding position. Then pull the backrest release
mechanism. Put on a transport lock.

Swivel front wheels, solid. Locking the direction of travel of the front wheels
The used, durable wheels guarantee the highest quality of stroller driving, driving pleasure and elegant
appearance. The tires are tubeless, filled with a special gel that has shock absorbing properties very similar
to those of inflatable wheels. The wheels are factory-fitted to the front wheel forks, which are finished
with top steering axles from above.
Both front wheels can be set for straight-ahead or unlocked for turning, which makes it much easier to
maneuver the stroller. Thanks to the locking of the direction of travel of the front wheels and the
possibility of putting it on or taking off, there is clearly greater comfort for both the child and the assistant
when driving the stroller.
It is recommended to remove the lock and allow the front wheels to turn while driving the stroller on a
completely smooth surface, e.g. in shopping centers, school.
•Assembly. To attach the wheels, insert the wheel axle into the folding system slot until you hear
a ‘click’. The audible clicking sound is the
indication that the assembly has been done
properly. For dismantling the front wheels
press the button on the front wheel folding
system (Fig. 9.4.1 ) and eject the wheel axle
from the front wheel folding system slot.
•Direction lock. In the event of uneven

Rear wheels, solid. Installation and removal of rear wheels on
the axle
The used, durable wheels guarantee the highest quality of stroller
driving, driving pleasure and elegant appearance. The tires are tubeless,
filled with a special gel that has shock absorbing properties very similar
to those of inflatable wheels.
Thanks to the possibility of dismounting both the wheels and their axle,
the trolley is smaller after folding, which facilitates its transport and
storage.
The wheel assembly mechanism is mounted inside the rear wheels and
ensures quick assembly and disassembly of the rear wheels. It is started
by pressing the quick assembly clamp (Fig. 9.6.1) towards the center of
the wheel, after which the rear wheel can be mounted on the rear wheel
axle or the rear wheel can be removed from the rear wheel axle.
•Assembly. When installing the rear wheel on the rear wheel axle, press the clamp in the center
of the wheel and put the wheel on the beginning of its axle. Then stop pressing the clamp and continue

Rear wheel amortization system
The stroller is equipped with spring-loaded cushioning of the frame
and rear wheels, located at the ends of the rear legs of the frame,
when in contact with the crossbeam. Amortization works
automatically. The adjustment is done by activating the up-down
lever located from the bottom of the shock absorber. In order to
facilitate the switchover of settings by the lever, simultaneous
pressure on the shock absorber spring is allowed. When the lever is
shifted, the shock absorber spring will be compressed (option for hard
ground) or extended (soft ground).
Ergonomic handle for pushing the stroller. Mechanism and angle adjustment of the handle
The handle is used to push the stroller, providing a firm grip in
various driving conditions. It has the ability to adjust the height of
the handle for the child's assistant who drives the stroller - Fig. 9.7
•Adjustment mechanism. These are two buttons on the
outside of the frame, located on the joints of the handle to push
the stroller.
•Angle adjustment of the stroller push handle. To change
the angle of the stroller push handle, push both buttons of the
angle adjustment mechanism of the push handle and change its
angle. After setting the handle in the correct position, stop
pressing the buttons, which will automatically lock the push
handle in the desired position.

Central brake. Applying and deactivating the brake
The central brake pedal (Fig. 9.8), which when pressed blocks the two
rear wheels of the stroller directly, is located in the middle of the
crossbeam, at the rear of the stroller frame.
•Central brake on and off

ground until it clicks. The correct activation of the brake is indicated by
a clear "click" sound from the central brake.
To disengage the central brake, pull the brake pedal up.
Tilting foot
The tilting foot (Fig. 9.9) is located on the right side of the crossbeam,
at the rear of the stroller frame. In order to use it, press the tilting foot
and at the same time pull the handle to push the stroller, which in turn
will cause the front of the stroller to rise up together with the front
wheels. Using the tilting foot makes it easier for the stroller to climb
onto small steps or curbs.
The transport handle
The transport handle is located under the shopping basket. Fig. 9.10
Footrest. Adjustment and use.
The adjustable footrest is included in the standard equipment of the Mewa stroller.
•To change the height of the footrest, unscrew the knobs
on the two screws that secure the footrest to the frame on both
sides of it, then set the footrest at the appropriate height and
screw it back with both screws
•To adjust the angle of the footrest, press the buttons
marked in the picture, adjust the footrest and release the
buttons.
•Use of a footrest. It is recommended to position the
footrest at such a height that the child's feet can rest freely on
it with their entire surface, while the child's thighs are parallel
to the seat surface. There are straps in the footrest plate to
secure the child's feets. It is recommended to put them on when
using the stroller.
Normally the footrest plate is in a horizontal position. However,
during transport, storage, rehabilitation, getting on and off the
Mewa stroller, the footrest plate must be folded and turned towards the footrest frame.

of the child as well as that of other people. Make sure there aren’t any cracks and damage in the stroller’s
frame. Also, check if it works properly. Do not use the stroller in case of any suspicion as to the proper
operation of the stroller. Keep the safety of your child in mind at all times.

four different positions including a bassinet
position. To change the position, pull back the
steel handle at the back of the seat and slowly
