GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS - Only use the Formula 3 XL for one child at a time. - The Formula 3 XL is suitable for children from birth to 4 years of age (maximum weight 20 kg). When used with a car safety seat or carry cot, the maximum weight shown on the car safety seat or carry cot applies. - It is advisable to only use the Formula 3 XL as a buggy once your child is able to sit unassisted. - We advise against using the pushchair insert for children younger than 6 months old. - Always make sure that the Formula 3 XL is completely unfolded and that the safety locks are properly secured before placing your child in the Formula 3 XL. - Keep children away from moving parts while folding, unfolding or adjusting the Formula 3 XL. - Always use the parking brake when parking the Formula 3 XL, even when just standing still. - The bicycle-style handbrake should only be used as an extra brake. It should never be used as a parking brake. - Inspect and clean the Formula 3 XL regularly. Never use harsh cleaning agents or lubricants. - Never lift the Formula 3 XL or use on escalator or stairs when there is a child in the pushchair. - Use original accessories and manufacturer-approved parts only. - No alterations may be made to the product. If you have any complaints or problems, please contact your supplier or importer. - Keep all plastic packaging material out of the reach of children and pets, as these materials pose a choking hazard. - The Formula 3 XL has been approved in accordance with: NFS 54-001, prEN 1888:2002, BS 7409:1996.

- Check the tyre pressure and inflate the tyre if necessary (see maintenance section for the maximum tyre pressure allowance). - The self-steering front wheel can be locked. To secure it, turn the locks on the right and left sides of the wheel towards the front. - First secure the side with the handle because the wheel needs to be able to move slightly (9/1) when the lock moves along the handle (9/2). Next, secure the other side (10). - To use the swivel function, carry out the above steps in reverse order, starting with the non-handle side (11/1), followed by the handle side (11/2). Removing the wheels - To remove the rear wheels, press the button on the hubcap (5/12) and pull the wheel out of the axle opening (13). - The front wheel: lift the handle (14/1) and pull the wheel out of the fork (14/2).

PARKING BRAKE (see illustration 19) - Always use the brake when parking the Formula 3 XL, “also when at a standstill”. - Step on the red brake pedal on the right rear wheel in order to lock both rear wheels (19/1). The pushchair is now in the parking position. - Always check to make sure the wheels are locked. - Release the parking brake by stepping on the left pedal (19/2). - The handbrake is for slowing down and should not be used as a parking brake. The handbrake works on both rear wheels. If you squeeze the handbrake too firmly or quickly, there is a risk that you will stumble over the Formula 3 XL, thus endangering your child. - Always check whether the wheels are locked.
