• Never use with low tire pressure or deflated tires as this could result in loss of control. Inflating tires above the maximum inflation pressure embossed on the tire can damage the rim and/or tire, resulting in loss of control and injury.

• Use extreme caution when using stroller on uneven and/or unpaved, wet, or slick surfaces, as these conditions create additional hazards and can lead to a loss of stability, resulting in serious injury.

• Do not use stroller on stairs, escalators, moving vehicles, or steep inclines. Stroller can tip over.

• Do not wear roller skates or inline skates while pushing stroller.

• Always jog with the stroller seat in the fully upright position. Jogging with the seat in reclined positions may result in a loss of stability. Never jog with infant car seat attached.

• When seat is fully reclined, backward tip-over is more likely, and may result in injury to stroller occupant.

• Always use wrist strap to prevent being separated from stroller.

• Never allow child to stand in stroller.

• Do not modify the stroller or any labels. Doing so voids the warranty and could lead to a dangerous condition.

• Do not place sharp objects in any seat pocket. Leaning against sharp objects in pockets can result in injury to occupant.

• Assembly of this stroller must be performed only by an adult.

• Only use manufacturer approved accessories and replacement parts with this stroller.

• Do not allow children to climb on or play with the stroller.

• Before and during use, always make sure the child’s hands and feet are away from wheels.

• Protect stroller when transporting or shipping to prevent damage to stroller and stroller components. Check closely for damage after transporting or shipping.

• It is best to store your stroller indoors when it is not in use. Extended exposure to rain or the sun’s ultraviolet rays can fade and damage the fabric, tires, and plastic parts.

• Never leave child unattended.

• The maximum weight capacity of the stroller (child plus luggage weight) is 75 lbs (34 kg). Maximum child height is 44 inches (112 cm). Do not exceed the maximum weight or height, as stroller will become unstable and tip resulting in serious injury.

• Avoid serious injury from falling or sliding out. Always use harness to secure child.

• Avoid finger entrapment or injury. Always ensure any child occupants or bystanders are away from the stroller while folding or unfolding.

• Do not attach parcels or bags to the handlebar or frame of stroller except those recommended by BOB Gear, as stroller can become unstable and tip over.

• Child may slip into leg openings and strangle. Never use in reclined carriage position unless child is harnessed.

• Do not overload the seat back pockets. Maximum weight is 2 lbs (1 kg). Overloading the seat back pocket may cause the stroller to become unstable and tip over.

• Do not overload the canopy pocket. Maximum weight is 1 lb (0.45 kg). Overloading the canopy pocket may cause the stroller to become unstable and tip over.

• DO NOT overload the low boy cargo basket. Maximum weight is 10 lbs (4.5 kg). Overloading the basket may cause the stroller to become unstable and tip over.

• FALL HAZARD - Wheel can detach and cause tip over. Pull on the wheel to assure it is securely attached.

• FALL HAZARD from tip over - Before running, jogging, or walking fast, LOCK the front wheel from swiveling.

• Do not park on inclines. The parking brake is intended to park the stroller on flat surfaces only. Parking on inclines may result in tip over or runaway stroller.

• The parking brake is not designed as a stopping brake. The parking brake should not be used to slow or stop the stroller because doing so could cause the stroller to stop abruptly, resulting in loss of control.

• Always set the parking brake when stroller is not moving. Never load or unload the stroller without the parking brake set.4 5 BOB Gear REVOLUTION FLEX 3.0 User Guide Stroller Assembly Unpacking the Stroller Remove all packaging materials and discard to avoid choking and suocation hazards Stroller Wheels Rear Wheel Installation 1 Unlock Parking Brake Prior to installing the rear wheels, position the parking brake in the unlocked position. 2 Insert Rear Wheel Stub Axle Insert the rear wheel’s stub axle into the hole in the rear dropout until a “click” is heard.
