Instructions for use

Unfolding the carriage

Lift the handle 1 until the two lateral handle catches 2 have engaged. WARNING! Before using the pram, make sure all catches are locked. Take care that you keep your child's body parts at a safe distance.

Folding the carriage

Turn the twist grip 3 inwards and push at the same time the telescopic handle to the stop. With the grip 3 still twisted, depress the red button 21, and push the handle 1 forcibly until it disengages. WARNING! We recommend proceeding with caution when folding and unfolding the chassis, and adjusting the backrest, as there is a risk that you do yourself an injury such as jamming your limbs, fingers, etc.

Height-adjustable Telescopic handle

Turn the twist grip 3 inward and slide the handle 1 in the desired position until it engages on both sides.

Changing the rear wheels

Release the parking brake 7. Depress push button 4 and pull the wheel off. Push the wheel right to the axle's stop. Make sure, all wheels are held in place properly. Then, depress the button again.

Lock-type-swivel wheels

Turn down the lock lever 5 to pre-select the straight-line motion mode, which will be activated the moment the wheels point in forward direction. To allow the wheels to swivel freely again, turn the lever 5 back to the horizontal position. On very uneven surfaces, and when going very fast, we recommend locking the swivel movement, to prevent the wheels from blocking.

Changing the swivel wheels

To remove the wheel, release the push-button in the centre of the cap 6 and pull the wheel off the holding device. To assemble the wheel, insert the fastening pin in the holding device, and engage it by a forcible push, which is indicated by a click sound.

Parking brake

Push the red brake button 7 to engage the brake. Having parked the pram, try to push it to check the brake. Push the green brake button 7 to release the brake.

WARNING! Make sure the brake is always closed when placing the baby in the carriage or taking it out of it.

Adjustable suspension system

By turning the selector 8, a "hard" or "soft" position can be selected for suspension.

Climatic zone 10

To provide good ventilation to the hood and to prevent heat from accumulating inside, open the two zip fasteners 28 and fold up the hood flap. Use the Velcro band below the additional tap to secure the flap to the hood. As an additional protection, the sun visor 20 can be pulled out.

Hood and safety bar

By pressing the bayonet joint 12, the hood or the safety bar can be pulled out. When inserting it, make sure the safety bar locks into place correctly and be careful not to pinch any of the fabric parts. By pressing the buttons 11, the safety bar position can be changed. WARNING! The hood bar of the stroller and the safety bar are not suitable for carrying the stroller.

Adjusting the backrest

By raising adjustment lever 13 on the back, the seat-back can be precisely adjusted to any incline between an upright seated position and a lying position. WARNING! When adjusting the backrest, take care that no movable

parts jam the baby's limbs or fingers, etc. Finally, make sure the backrest has reengaged properly.

Fall-out protection WARNING!

As an additional protection preventing the baby from falling out of the carriage, secure the hood to the metal back. To do this, join the grommets 18 to their respective turn-lock fasteners, and the hook lock 19 to the metal ring on the back plate as well.

Instructions for use

Safety belt WARNING!

Secure your child with the five-point harness system 14.

Make sure the shoulder straps D are plugged in and that the belt is securely fastened. The length of the belt can be adjusted with the sliding buckle F.

To undo the harness: press the two tongues B together using your thumb and forefinger, then press the red button A, so that you can pull the two plugs E out upwards. To undo the shoulder straps you then press button C.

Canopy attachment

Turn the canopy attachment clip so that the opening faces upwards. Remove the lower part of the canopy 27. Insert then the fixing peg of the canopy in the slot of the canopy attachment.

Automatic lock for upper section 17
Place the stroller unit or carrycot upon the chassis in a way that the openings of the handles fit the locking studs. The two locks engage by pressing lightly, which is indicated by a click sound. Check by lifting the carriage top to make sure the two locks are engaged securely. To remove the carriage tops, depress the two red lock levers in the respective handle at the same time, and take off the carriage tops.

Carrying and folding the carriage

The carrying bar 24 is suitable for carrying the folding carrycot. Make sure the carrying bar is correctly engaged in carrying position. To fold the bar back, depress the red safety button 22 and place the bar back, which can be done in several steps. The folding carrycot can be folded up flat, to cram it in the boot. Fold the fixing clips 26 down onto the floor of the carrier. Fold the four tensioners 23, located at the sides under the inner lining, inwards.

To prepare it for use, press the tensioners 23 outwards until they click into place.

To avoid a build-up of heat, you can open the hood flap 10 by opening the zippers and securing the hood flap under the strap with the Velcro band.

WARNING! Do not use mattresses that have more than 2cm in depth.
WARNING! This carrycot is suitable for holding only one baby, which cannot yet sit up on its own, or roll on its side or support itself on hands and knees. Maximum baby weight: 9 kg.
WARNING! Never place this carrycot on a stand. Always place the carrycot on a solid, horizontal base.
WARNING! Do not use the carrycot if any part is torn or broken. Check the handles and the base regularly for signs of wear or damage.
WARNING! Be aware of the risks posed by open fires or other sources of heat, such as electric heaters, gas flames etc., if these are in the immediate vicinity of the carrycot.

Suitability for your child

WARNING! Only use this seat unit when your child is able to sit independently.

Not suitable for children under the age of 6 months except in connection with an appropriate carrycot.

The VIP XL carriage unit is designed to carry a child from birth – up to the age of 12 months, and up to 9kg in weight.

All the materials we use can easily be cared for.

Care of the fabric parts

Clean soiled fabrics when dry using a clothes-brush or lukewarm water (then use hair dryer). Do not rub fabrics extensively. Remove tenacious stains using a soft detergent. All removable fabric parts may be machine washed in lukewarm water at a gentle setting and reduced agitation, at 30^ . Let's say you have encountered a heavy rain shower. Dry your carriage with the hood still on in a dry and airy room using a cloth. This prevents marking as well as the underlining fabrics from moist soaking in through the seams. As a guaranteed protection against rain, we recommend that you use our rain cover, which is either included or can be purchased at your dealer's. Our fabrics have quite a number of distinctive features. However, they are very sensitive to excessive sunlight. That's why you should park your carriage in the shade whenever possible.

Care of the chassis

The chassis requires regular care. You should clean and slightly lubricate the wheel axles at a regular 4-weeks interval. Use a silicone based lubricant spray for all moving plastic parts to maintain them in an operative condition. Keep all coated and chrome-plated metal parts in dry condition, and use a finish restorer or chrome paste if necessary. Remove smaller chassis paint damages by means of a touch-up applicator. Do not use high-pressure cleaners when cleaning your carriage, due to risk of damaging the ball bearings of the wheels (greased) and other functional parts (grinding and creaking noise). Wheels: When using pneumatic wheels, make sure they have got enough air in the tire. Specified tire inflation pressure should be between 1.2 and 1.5bar max. WARNING! Max. tire pressure will be reached quickly. Overpressure may result in accidents and personal injuries. Replace worn plain wheel bearings and springs in time. Whenever possible, do not park carriages using pneumatic tired wheels for a longer period of time on light PVC or linoleum as rubber tires may rub off on the floor covering. Little stones in the thread, etc. may just as well damage the floor covering. When parking the carriage in the blazing sun or cramming it in the boot at temperatures of above 40^ , the semi pneumatic tires may flatten or become deformed.

Tire air loss

Tires tend to lose air over time. When blowing up a flat tire, inflate it only halfway first, and make sure the tire is evenly seated, to avoid "wobble". Then continue to inflate it to the proper pressure.

Quality agreement

2 YEARS WARRANTY

This product is guaranteed for a period of 2 years by your contract partner. For possible submission of proof, please keep your receipt, the completed warranty card as well as the hand-over check bearing your signature for the length of the warranty period. These documents must be submitted to qualify for service under the warranty.

IN CASE OF WARRANTY CLAIM

This product is warranted against defects in materials and workmanship that existed at the time it was handed over.

THIS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER ....

We disclaim liability for defects in the object of purchase that are beyond our control. This especially applies to:

natural wear and tear (wear-related defects) and defects due to excessive stress
■ consequential defects, originally caused by neglect of defects/damages but developing into conditions necessitating a more difficult repair
defects due to improper or inappropriate use (see Instructions)
defects due to incorrect assembly or operation
defects due to negligent handling or lack of maintenance of the product
defects due to improper alteration of the product.

WARRANTY CLAIM - YES OR NO?

Rust: To provide a proper basic protection of the chassis, it has undergone a rust-proofing treatment. However, rust-stains may be found when lacking maintenance. This case will not be covered by the warranty. Scratches: Scratches caused by wear and tear will not be covered by the warranty. Mould formation: Fabric parts, having become wet, should be dried properly to prevent mould formation (see Instructions). Mould formation will not be covered by the warranty. Bleaching of the fabrics: We confirm that the fabrics comply with the established standards. It cannot be ruled out that colours of the fabrics may fade while the parts are exposed to direct sunlight, washed too frequently, come into contact with sweat and detergents, or suffer abrasive wear (especially on those parts where the pram is handled). Consequently, colour fading is excluded from the warranty. It is unavoidable that colours sometimes differ slightly from one individual batch to the next, which is why this case will not be covered under the warranty. Knob formation on fabrics: We recommend that you apply general clothes care. As with woolen sweaters, the knobs can easily be removed by using a clothes-brush or burling machine. Tearing of seams, fabrics, press studs : At the time of purchase, please check carefully that all the fabric parts, seams and snap fasteners have properly been sewn and fastened. In case of a possible complaint concerning seams/defective snap fasteners, a claim must immediately be reported to your dealer after the defect has been discovered. Wheels: As wheels used on prams will not be balanced, they may show slight run-outs (,,wobbles^ ) . Worn tires will be regarded as natural wear and tear. No claim can be raised if your pram, using pneumatic tired wheels, has a „flat“. This will be attributed to extraneous causes — a small hole caused by a pointed object, or pushing the pram about when it has not got enough air in the tire. This case will not be covered by the warranty.
