Valco Baby Tri-mode EX - Manual (Page 5)

EXTRAS Optional Extra on most models
Your Runabout is equipped with a tire
pump that hangs in a special pocket
found sewn beneath the seat at the
rear.
Your tires should be kept at a
pressure of 40 p.s.i. Under inflated
tyres can cause excessive and uneven
tire wear, greater susceptibility to
punctures and greater difficulty in
smooth operation.
Your Runabout is equipped with a
removable “Head Hugger” and
shoulder harness covers. The
“Head Hugger” is designed to
optimize the comfort of newborn
babies within the stroller. The
shoulder straps increase your
child’s comfort levels when in the
harness as well as keeping
harness adjusters away from busy
fingers.
Your Runabout hood is fitted with a
zip system to which attaches our
unique silver insect mesh (optional
extra on most models)
This protective mesh has been
tested and proven to block out up to
80% * of UV rays
(*
tested to Australian Standard 4399
)
AIRGO™ SYSTEM
Your Runabout has been designed to maximise air flow
within the stroller by way of our exclusive Airgo™ system.
This unique system combines a special breathable seat
fabric, with our new flexible hood. The hood incorporates a
built in storage bag, designed to zip off when more air flow
is required, to reveal an additional mesh air vent. The bag is
designed “to go” or can be easily hung from the stroller
handle.
Using your harness

Your Runabout stroller is fitted with our unique new multi point safety harness system. Your
child MUST always be harnessed while in the stroller.
TO SECURE YOUR CHILD IN THE HARNESS:
1. Overlap buckles (A) and (B) so that they fit together to form one complete buckle.
2. Insert the completed buckle into the Buckle Housing (C) until it engages securely in place.
3. Carefully adjust the harness straps to snugly fit your child by adjusting the Sliders
located on all Shoulder Straps, Waist Straps and the Crotch Strap.
4. Your harness can be adjusted for even more comfort for smaller or larger children (at the
top of the seat back and front of the seat) by threading/removing the crotch or shoulder
straps through the webbing sewn into the seat. You will need to detach the waist straps
at the sides of the stroller in order to do so. (To detach the waist straps: With a pincer
movement, depress the centre buckle button and pull the strap free from the housing.)
5. To prevent older children tampering with the strap adjustments and for greater child
comfort, your RUNABOUT stroller is provided with 2 soft strap covers for each harness.
To fit, detach the waist straps at the sides of the stroller (as in point 4) and thread the
strap through the strap cover. Re-attach each strap.
The harness should be snugly fitted to the baby’s body, tight enough so that the baby cannot
wriggle itself free of the straps but loose enough so as not to cause the baby any discomfort.

TO OPEN YOUR HARNESS:
1. Press down on the Buckle Prongs (1).
2. Simultaneously push the release button in the centre of the buckle (2)

Your harness system has been designed to meet very stringent safety standards and incorporates
our unique secondary action. This helps ensure that your child cannot release the harness unaided.
