Your pushchair deserves careful handling and requires regular maintenance
• Regularly check that the safety harness is correctly fitted and that the webbing has not
become frayed or damaged. If the harness is damaged, we recommend that a new one is
fitted. For more information contact Customer Services.
• Clean the plastic parts of the pushchair with a damp cloth, do not use abrasives or bleach.
• Clean and lubricate the wheels, safety locks (where appropriate) and sliding parts
using a light oil or silicon spray. Do not use heavy oil as this will attract dust and
grit which tend to clog and damage moving parts. If in any doubt contact our
Customer Services.
• We strongly recommend that you have your pushchair serviced regularly, particularly after
the first six months. To do this contact either your retailer or call Customer Services
Helpline.
Fabric care
• All the Mamas & Papas pushchair fabrics are shower resistant. Should your pushchair
become wet do not fold the hood or apron when you take the item inside. Always allow
the fabrics to dry naturally away from strong heat sources such as fires, radiators and out
of direct sunlight.
• Whilst fabrics are carefully selected and tested, washing, wear and normal exposure to
bright sunlight may cause their colour to change.
• The exposed edges of fabric covers are often the first to wear and fray, remember this
when storing or transporting your pushchair/carrycot and accessories.
• Light soiling to the pushchair can be removed with a damp sponge and a mild detergent.
• Washing instructions: Remove the fabrics following the procedure given in these
instructions. Hand wash the fabric with a mild detergent at 30º, dry the fabric flat away
from direct heat and do not tumble dry. Do not use abrasives or bleach to clean the fabric.
• Should a fault arise with your pushchair please contact either your retailer or phone
Customer Services.
