Caring for your Explorer
Fabric care and cleaning
The fabric is backed with a water-resistant coating. Brush off dirt. More intense
cleaning can be done by hand, in warm water, using a mild natural soap. Rinse out
soap. Do not use detergents or bleach. Air dry. The fabric is fade resistant but not
fade proof; exposure to direct sunlight can fade the fabric.
Frame care and cleaning
We recommend that dirt is brushed off the frame and wheels regularly. Clean with
a non-abrasive household cleaner and soft cloth. Wash off sand and salt after beach
activity. Always dry frame if wet.
Tyres & inner tube
The valve is car-size. We recommend 20 - 22 psi. Releasing air gives a softer ride,
but lower pressure reduces tread life. New inner tubes and tyres are generally
available (2.5 x 12.5 inch 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.
Rubber covers & grip
Take care to avoid damage to the foam rubber. To replace: undo snaps; depress the
nib springs and remove frame part. Replace, using soapy water for lubrication. Replace
frame part; ensure nib springs engage. The foam rubber is not under warranty.
Routine inspection and maintenance
Moving parts may need periodic lubrication. Inspect essential components for fraying
(esp. webbing straps and safety harness), wear (esp. auto-locks, snap fasteners,
button springs, tyres, plastic parts, zips and moving parts), security (esp. autolocks
and caps which must not be loose) and freedom of movement (esp. wheels, nuts).
Excessive wear can reduce effectiveness and safety.
