Stroller Safety Tips
BRITAX recommends following these tips to keep you and your child safe while strolling:
 |
Always secure your child with the harness when using the stroller.
|
 |
Never leave a child in a stroller unattended.
|
 |
Read your stroller's user guide before use.
|
 |
Make sure your child fits within the stroller manufacturer’s age, weight, and height requirements.
|
 |
Always make sure the stroller is fully open and locked before use.
|
 |
Register your stroller with the manufacturer so they can notify you in the event of a recall or safety notice.
|
 |
When using a stroller with attachments, such as an infant car seat, bassinet, or detachable seat, always make sure the attachments are securely locked into place.
|
|
 |
Remember to set the parking brake when the stroller is not moving.
|
 |
Never use a stroller on stairs or an escalator.
|
 |
Keep your child away from the stroller when folding or unfolding it.
|
 |
Don’t hang or place items, including a purse or diaper bag, on the handle or frame of a stroller unless approved by the manufacturer, as this may cause the stroller to become unbalanced and tip over.
|
 |
Check the brakes on the stroller periodically to ensure that they’re functioning correctly.
|
 |
Do not allow children to climb on or play with the stroller.
