Frequently Asked Questions - Duet Mountain Buggy

What is the maximum weight supported by the Duet stroller?

The maximum weight is 18 kg (40 lbs) for the main seat in upright position, and 9 kg (20 lbs) in newborn position. The basket supports up to 5 kg (11 lbs).

How to maintain the stroller tires?

Tires should be inflated to a maximum of 20-22 psi (valve identical to a car tire). In case of a puncture, use a standard inner tube (2" x 12") or a repair kit. Do not overinflate.

Can I use the stroller for jogging?

No, this stroller is not designed for running or rollerblading. It is intended for normal walking use.

How to clean the stroller fabrics?

Use a damp sponge with mild soap and warm water. Never use detergents or bleach. Air dry.

Is the harness mandatory?

Yes, always fasten the harness (waist and crotch strap) as soon as the child can sit up alone. This prevents falls or slipping.

How to lubricate the brake?

Apply lubricant or cooking oil generously to the metal brake rod for optimal operation.

What accessories are compatible?

Use only accessories approved by Mountain Buggy. Do not hang any bags on the frame, use only the provided storage basket.

How to fold and unfold the stroller?

Refer to the manual for detailed steps. Be careful not to pinch your fingers when folding/unfolding. Ensure all locking mechanisms are properly engaged.

Can I add an extra mattress?

No, do not add a mattress thicker than 20 mm to avoid any risk of suffocation or imbalance.

What to do if the stroller seems unstable?

Check that you are not exceeding the maximum loads (seat 18 kg, basket 5 kg). Do not hang anything on the handlebar. If the problem persists, contact Mountain Buggy support.

CLEANING & CARING

Check the duo™/duet™ for cuts & bruises. If your product is damaged in any way, or you're not sure how to use it, please consult our web support (www.mountainbuggy.com/support) from here you can access a local customer care team.

Caring for duo™/duet™

Unlike children, your duo™/duet™ likes to stay clean.

• Brush dirt off frame and wheels regularly.
- Clean with non-abrasive household cleaner and a soft cloth.
- Wash off sand and salt after visiting the beach.
• Always dry frame if wet.
- Fabrics can be sponge cleaned with warm water, using a mild natural soap.
- Do not use detergents or bleach.
- Store in a well ventilated space, away from direct sunlight (which can harm and fade fabric), and moisture.
• Take care to avoid damage to foam rubber. Foam rubber is not under warranty.
- Improper care will void any warranties. Do not use the duo™/duet™ if deterioration is detected or suspected.
- To ensure continued ease of use, lubricate you brake wire with a silicone based or other plastic friendly grease. Apply to the areas of your brake wire that move against the plastic wheel housings.

IMPORTANT IMPORTANT

• Always load/unload your children on level ground.
- Ensure the brake is engaged during the loading and unloading of children.
- Care should be taken if the stroller is used on stairs or escalators.
• Always use the safety strap.
- Excessive wear can reduce effectiveness and safety. Parts may need lubrication. Inspect essential components for:
Fraying - especially webbing straps and safety harness.
Wear - locks, snap fasteners, tyres, plastic and moving parts.
Safety - locks must not be loose.

Tyres & Tubes

• The valve is car-size. Manually inflate to 20 – 22psi max. Releasing air gives a softer ride but lower pressure reduces tread life.
• New inner tubes and tyres are generally available (21/4" x 121/2" tyre) from your dealer, cycle or specialist wheel shops. Standard tyre kits can repair punctures.
• A flat tyre can result from grit holding the valve open; to check: inflate tyre, deflate rapidly, and re-inflate.
• Tyres and tubes are not under warranty. Do not over inflate. Tyre pressure is affected by heat especially when inside parked cars.
