BEFORE YOUR FIRST USE

Guide for Safe Use
Make sure your jogging stroller fits properly.
The maximum capacity of a Chariot jogging stroller is 30 kg (65 lbs) including child and luggage or other supplies. The child’s head, including any helmet, should not project above the sunshade assembly (Fig. 2). The child’s feet should not reach the front wheel. Using the jogging stroller with a child who does not properly fit may cause damage to the jogging stroller, or possibly injure the child.
The maximum capacity of the rear mesh storage pocket is 1 kg (2.2 lbs). Do not overload the rear storage pocket. Do not attach additional carrying bags or other items to the back or handlebars of the jogging stroller. Any additional weight on the back of the jogging stroller could make it unstable. Additional cargo may be stored in the lower cargo pocket to a maximum of 3 kg (6.6 lbs).
You can also adjust the jogging stroller handlebars to fit the person pushing the jogging stroller. Read page 12 of this manual before attempting to make these adjustments.
Make sure you are familiar with your jogging stroller.
Familiarize yourself with the use of the mechanisms on this jogging stroller. Practice adjusting and walking the jogging stroller without a child in it before attempting to walk with a loaded jogging stroller.

Your jogging stroller can be folded for easier transportation or more compact storage. Before storage, always make sure the jogging stroller is completely dry. Storing the jogging stroller when wet or moist will cause rust to form on the metal parts, and mildew will form on the fabric parts. Care must be taken when folding and unfolding the jogging stroller to prevent finger entrapment.
Folding the jogging stroller.
1.Open the brake quick release lever. Remove the front wheel by moving the quick release lever to the OPEN position as shown in the Wheels section. Unscrew the quick release adjusting nut and slip the wheel from the dropouts. Remove the rear wheels by gently pulling each clip spring open enough that the axle can be removed from the axle tube (do not force the clip spring past this point, or you may bend it so that it does not secure the wheel properly).
2.Unsnap the seat anchor from the center back of the axle.
3.Pull the locking tension bar (Fig. 1) into its upper, unlocked position.
4.Gently fold the handlebar forward, being careful not to catch or pinch any of the jogging stroller’s fabric parts. (Fig. 2)
5.Fold the wheel struts (Fig. 3) forward.
6.Attach (snap) the parking brake strap to the snap on the center back axle.
Unfolding the jogging stroller.
