Rear Wheel Brakes
•Before placing any child into the stroller or removing them from the stroller, be certain that the rear wheel brakes are engaged.
•To engage the rear wheel brakes, push down on the brake lever located on each rear wheel. See Figure 13. The stroller may require slight forward or rearward movement in order to line up the teeth on the brake with each wheel brake cluster.
•Check that the brakes are properly applied by attempting to push the stroller backward and forward.
•To release the brakes, gently lift up on the brake lever. See Figure 14.

! | WARNING |
Always set BOTH wheel brakes when the stroller is not being pushed so that the stroller will not roll away. Never leave stroller unattended, especially on a hill or incline, as the stroller may tip over or slide.
Adjusting the Footrest
The footrest can be adjusted to two positions – horizontal or all the way down.
•To place the footrest into the horizontal position, pull up on the footrest and position the footrest lower bar into the upper slot at the middle of the plastic bracket on the underside of the footrest. See Figure 15.
•Ensure that the bar is located securely into this slot on BOTH sides of the footrest. Push down on both sides of the footrest to ensure it is secure.
•To place the footrest into the down position, pull up on the footrest to release the bar from the slot. Lower the footrest slightly while moving the bar into the lower slot of the plastic bracket on BOTH sides of the footrest. See Figure 16.
•Lower the footrest to its down position. Note that the footrest will not “lock” into the down position, but will remain there by gravity only.

! | WARNING |
Never allow a child to step onto the footrest in either position in order to get into or out of the stroller. This may cause the stroller to tip over and injure the child.
