pressing the locking catch down the
wheels will lock in the fixed position. By
lifting this up the wheels will freely swivel
for easier steering.
You should always lock the wheels on
uneven surfaces, and before folding.
Using your hood
11.1 Your 3D hood fits on the 3D facing both
directions, rearwards for the pram mode
and forwards for pushchair mode. Press
down on the hood arms to tension the
hood.
Using your liner
12.1 Your 3D liner has a Soft Wrap™ to
help provide your child with a safe and
comfortable position. Open the wrap
completely, place your child in the
centre of the Soft Wrap™ and close the
waist and crotch pads, securing with the
velcro tabs.
12.2 If you wish to attach a separate harness
D-rings can be accessed at the sides of
liner.
WARNING: Use a harness
as soon as your child can sit
unaided.
NOTE: Always use the
harness provided when in
pushchair mode
Your pram system liner can be washed
(please refer to washcare labels), it is
recommended that the mattress and
side supports are removed by accessing
from the base of the liner.
Using your raincover
13.1 To attach the raincover, first slide over
the 3D Pram System handles and pass
over the hood. Then fasten the velcro
flap at the rear.
13.2 Pull the raincover over the 3D at both
ends. Loop the velcro straps at the front
around the 3D leg, just below the foot
plate, and fasten. The raincover is now
fitted.
13.3 Your 3D Pram System raincover is
designed to fit the 3D in either pram or
pushchair mode. The raincover however
is not designed to fit when the Ventura
Plus car seat is fitted to the 3D. A
separate raincover can be purchased for
this purpose.

Folding your 3D
Your 3D will fold with and without the
pram system liner fitted. It is easier
without the liner in position, and we
would therefore recommend removing it
before folding.
Note: To ensure your 3D folds
correctly remove all items from the
shopping basket before attempting
to fold.
Note: If the liner is left in place and
folded for a long period, then the
foam mattress will curve upwards.
This will then regain its normal flat
shape once a baby is placed in the
liner.
Note: If using as a travel system
please ensure that the Ventura Plus
car seat is removed before folding.
14.1 Before commencing the fold apply the
brake. Then lift the seat back into the
upright position (if in pram system make
sure you push the apron part upright)
lock the swivel wheels and ensure the
hood is fully folded back.
This is very important.
14.2 Next, gently Pull the 2 finger catches
simultaneously upwards (numbered 1)
until you hear the click and reveal the
red exclamation marks. Now press
down gently on the main pushchair
handles to disengage the main front
locks.
Folding your 3D
14.3 Rotate the red rotation lever (numbered
2) so it’s horizontal. Pull gently upwards
and the 3D will begin to fold. This lever
is not a carry handle.
Note: Do not force or over rotate
the red rotation lever, this may
cause damage to your pushchair.
14.4 Pushing on the handle and lifting the
red rotation lever will help your 3D to
fold easily.
14.5 Rock the pushchair onto the front wheels
and push downwards. Your 3D will lock
together.
14.6 From time to time it may be necessary
to lock your 3D by pressing the legs
together until the 3D locks. This is
perfectly normal.
NOTE: When folding your 3D in pram
mode, please ensure that the apron (seat
back) has been raised to the upright
position (see point 7.3), then proceed
with points 14.1 - 14.5.
NOTE: Silver Cross advises that the
apron is removed before folding in pram
mode.
